Re: i'm sick of verizon wireless


No such thing as 'opting out' of a contract. You don't have a choice in less you want to pay the cancellation fee. Carriers lock you into contracts to keep you with them.

I've always had great reception with verizon.

lets put this in a different tone...you will not be let out of a contract for dropped calls...you will pay an ETF which is 175/line. no whining, talking, complaining, griping, or any other form will get you out of the contract unless you have had phone less than 15 days (which is the trial period for verizon) anything over that and you get the ETF.

Re: i'm sick of verizon wireless


i don't know about that. i had a contract with verizon in the past. i moved to an area where i did not have service at my home, i went and explained the situation, and they let me out.

Try calling *228 (press send), then choose option 2 to update your roamiong capabilities. This will update your phone with the most current list of towers and roaming agreements. That should fix a lot of your problems with signal strength. You should be doing this about once a month.

It seems as though they may have gone under. What you could do with Wire Cracker was pay $50 and they'd get you out of your contract and hook you up with a new cell provider.

When you called them though, you had to know what new provider you wanted, and phone, and on top of the $50 fee, you also had to buy your new phone at that time as well.

They also had an 800 number, which I called this morning, and it was in service, but didn't seem to be wirecracker anymore. If you want to try the number, it is: 800-574-7032.

Re: i'm sick of verizon wireless


What type of phone do you have that you don't get reception and which region do you live in? My family has a Motorola E815, two Razr V3M's, one V3C, and a v710 and I must admit its deffenitly the greatest provider in my area. I often have to let people with Cingular, T-Mobile, and Nextel borrow my phone. I switched to Cingluar for two weeks because of rollover then decided it wasn't worth it if I coudln't get reception. My guess is its just your phone.

That phone is over 2 years old. It is definitely time to get a new one (preferably something not made by Audiovox/UTS).
