That's what everyone keeps telling me, but I've had these issues with EVERY Verizon phone I've used.


I would love for it to really just be the phone, but after the third try it's hard to rationalize buying ANOTHER Verizon phone. Anyone have an old Verizon phone they NEVER had service issues with? I don't care what phone it is. If it's really just the phones I'd love to disprove my theory.

*228...if that doesn't work it's your phone that's a POS and is probably crapping out.

Let's not forget that the free cheapo phones are designed as disposables and usually have terrible performing radios, or the cheapest radio you can put in them. Hope this helps, if not good luck.

Also I have noticed piss poor performance with filling up the memory on the cheapos also.

done the reprogramming on every phone I've had this issue with. I can understand the free, cheaper phones totally crapping out, but the past two I paid for on top of the free credits. If the phones Verizon offers, even at an additional cost, are really what's causing the problems then is it worth sticking with them still? Verizon isn't like other providers where I can just get a good, unlocked gsm phone.

My mom has verizon right now and honestly there is something wrong with it. I had verizon in the past and it has never let me down. But with hers, she always gets dropped calls. Its hard for me to reach her. Sometimes she'll say that her phone never rang.

Or maybe its just the area i live in?

I have tmobile on my iphone, and i can say that its probably the best service i've had in a long time. But i do get the occasional crosstalk and dropped calls (who doesn't).

I've been with Verizon ever since they were called AirTouch. I've had service with them for about 12+ years now with no issues at all. Probably the reason why I'm still with them!

You wouldn't by chance have any metal plates in your head, throwing off all of your Verizon phones? That's a pretty staggering issue if you don't yet every single Verizon phone you've had does not work.

I have tmobile on my iphone. I think its great. But i have yet to try the new 3G. It should be faster then the old school version. But nonetheless an iphone is an iphone.

Hey leets, what kind of verizon phone do you have?
