Nokia N70 3G problems..

Just lately I've started to experience a lot of 'error in connection' when
trying to call out an people trying to contact me have been unable to,
getting the message that my phone is switched off. I've been in touch with
vodaphone about this problem an they sent me a replacement handset an
battery only for the problem to still be there.. When I phoned vodaphone
again to tell them this I was told that they would arrange for another phone
to be sent out to me... after speaking to 3 different vodaphone staff the
final one said that it might be to do with my 3G an that I should switch the
phone to GSM switching off the 3G capabilities.. Now I'm paying a fairly
expensive monthly charge for a state of the art (when I got it 8months ago)
3G phone which now doesn't function as a 3G phone..They have stated
categorically that they will not send me a new phone as a 30 day time limit
has expired... Is this a common thing..an how do I stand in a customer
rights capacity.. seems really crap to be honest.. phone aint doing what I'm
paying £40+ a month for it to do..

I have an N70 on vodafone and suffer the same problem, at random the
phone will not dial out nor receive calls or send/receive text
messages. Switching off and back on restores it to working order, it
may be that a software upgrade fixes it my software version is still V
2.0536.0.2. I just can't be bothered with the hassle of getting it
upgraded you never know more problems may occur...
Seem it is a common issue (feature!!) of N70's

HTH
