I am in 60074, Palatine, IL. Last Thu i noticed a lot of missed calls on my youmail account page. Tried to make the call, and display stayed at "dialing", then after about 30 sec i got "call has been lost" message. I called VZW support X times, and already been sure that my phone is faulty. Finally, yesterday i called them again to check the status of trouble ticket. I asked, if there more complaints like mine. They told me, yeah - there are 7 more exactly like mine complaints. Anybody else around here have the same problem? :thinking:
 
That does not apply to me.......when i am about 2-3 miles away from my home area, all is just perfect...



I've seen some provisioning errors that don't necessarily cut your phone service completely. A lot has to do with the specific tower in your area. My guess is when you go to a different tower the new tower allows your phone to connect without issue. Do the identifiers on the phone's hardware match that of the software? I'd go to a Verizon store and make sure those identifiers (IMEI etc) are correct and your phone is provisioned correctly.
