Anyone else having issues where their VZW data? I know a few people with nothing (meaning no service) including myself.

There is something on Engadget about it but every comment seems to say the opposite.

Central NJ along the coast.

vzw told me they lost 5 towers in my area, It would not roam because my phone still said it had a perfect 3g and cell signal but nothing worked.

I'm in Indiana and VZW has been POOP lately... the other day I had nothing. NOTHING. I'm in the freaking state capital... what the heck. It's been all over the place here. All of my VZW friends are sticking their phones up in the air in frustration lol. I got an email a couple weeks ago saying 4g would come to my area by the summer of 2011 so maybe that's it?? No idea though.

Wow lol all this AT&T vs Vzw crap.. All I was asking is anyone else having issues or know why. Obviously there is an issue because usually it's good.

Found out they were having some issues with towers and most people inky county were out.

Yeah sorry I couldn't help myself. Lol

You were in defense, though ;) You weren't the one who started dissing a carrier right away in the second post... lol... :rolleyes:

My signal has returned to normal... it was definitely weird though. I would have bars and then not be able to make a call, or to send a text... weird.

Exactly! Lol and yeah, one time I came home and I randomly had no service, on my old phone, and no matter where I walked in my house it wouldn't send or receive texts or calls. It was weird but when I woke up everything was fine.
