3/15 I have Verizon and have been pretty happy with the service till recently. I no longer have signal in my apartment, and I've verified this with other Verizon customers in the apartment. I called them up to fix up the cell/repeater but they said they don't have any problem in my area. What to do now? \_ Take your number and run, boy. \_ What phone do you have? Has there been construction nearby? \_ I have T720. I verified this with other Verizon Wireless customers using other phone and they have the same problem. \_ OK, that phone's tri-mode, so that's not the problem. Have you updated the prefered roaming list lately? To do that, go somewhere with a strong digital signal and dial *228 and follow the voice prompts to "Update your PRL". Your phone should reboot when it's done. See if that improves your signal. Ooops I mean I have T720i. Not sure what the "i" means but it must be something significant. Anyways I did update it while talking to the cust rep and she said try that fro a few days, and if still no luck I can change the phone for free. But I seriously doubt it's the phone becuase I can use it pretty much anywhere, AND I've confirmed with other Verizon customers in the same building that they don't have service. So... now sure what to do next. \_ The T720i? On Verizon? That's a GSM phone. If you have a GSM phone with Verizon it would go to roam all the time. If you actually have a CDMA phone and your reception got a lot worse recently, I'd blame either a new building between you and the cell site. Or else a bunch of new Verizon customers in your neighborhood are causing the cell site to 'breathe'. |
