AT&T cell tower problem Around Town, posted by Al F., a resident of Stanford, on Jan 30, 2010 at 10:16 am
We no longer can make or receive cell calls from our home between Page Mill and Stanford Ave. I've called AT&T often. They report a "degraded" cell tower "near" Page Mill and El Camino having a problem that began on 1/19/10...during the storm I guess. Repair-complete estimates have not been met and the reps cannot give good info on the nature of the problem and the time to repair. I've requested a call-back from a local repair person who can give definitive answers about when this will be fixed and rate relief in the interim.

There's an AT&T store at the corner of Page Mill and El Camino. Pretty funny if the store has no AT&T service right now. You would think that AT&T has some incentive to fix that problem.

We need to declare cell towers an essential public safety service, not subject to public discussion. Just try to object to a fire hydrant on your street and see how far you get. I would not object to require competitors to share towers.

It's all Steve Jobs' fault. If it weren't for him, no one would use AT&T and no one would complain about the service quality. I wonder if he gets AT&T service at his house?
