Lately Me and a few friends on the east coast have been having problems with Verizon's service..
i cannot send any text messages or receive them, and i loose COMPLETE signal from time to time for 30mins at a time.

just wondering if this is affecting more people than my friends..
my friends live in SC, and Michigan that are having this problem, at first i thought it was my phone, or that they just cut my service for some reason.

Anyone else having this problem?

Everyone in the house has Verizon and we all have different phones. No one is having issues.

Only time I have trouble is when I go down into the basement of the school's library.

And it's probably because of this:

Your local tower could be having issues.

*228 option 2 from your phone to update your PRL - see if this helps.

Never hurts to take it in and ask. Have them check your phone for all the latest updates too.

BTW, do you have a data plan on the dare?

Does the internet browser suck?
Something tells me that Verizon's browser is too bad to warrant a data plan...
