Help Data not working ... at all

Has anyone had an issue where the data just does not work...at all? I have a CLN phone since my original kept on getting ravaged by the vaunted My Verizon app. At about 10 am today I noticed my phone wasn't connected to 4G, 3G or even 1X. The last email that made it through was at 9:15, so I know I did absolutely nothing to the phone to change anything.

I've restarted the phone, shut it down, taken the battery out, taken the sim card out, talked to Verizon (factory reset? noooooo! I've done that too many times), switched the data on and off, switched airplane mode on and off, etc. and it won't connect to any data networks. Only wifi works.
 
Pretty sure it's a verizon thing. I had that happen a few times with this phone AND 2 DIFFERENT Blackberry's. In the case of the Blackberry's, there'd be times when I could not get data (3G) to go through at all for up to two days. Then, it would mysteriously start working again! I did restarts, battery pulls, service book resets, force reconnects (where it forces the phone to connect to a different tower) etc. No idea why it happens. One time in particular I can remember this happening was when I had my new(er) BB Curve. Data stopped working for the day (the whole day...even though the 3G symbol was present) and I was traveling to another city 100 miles away where I know I'd gotten data before. Nope. Nothing. The next day, woke up and it was fine again.

No clue here.

Over the past couple of days I have not been getting 4g. I will get 3g then it will go down to 1x then nothing. Today 3g has been working consistently but I'm not sure what is to blame, the phone/radio/sim card or Verizon's network. Has anyone else been having problems lately with Verizon's network? I live in Indy, in case anyone in the area is experiencing the same thing.

This happened to me too this morning I noticed that I cannot connect to the Verizon internet network. It connects to my wireless router at home just fine but will not connect to Verizons network. Tried everything I found on the internet but nothing works. Any ideas how to fix this?

Im going to guess its a network issue at the moment as I have had trouble all weekend with data (mine is common just much worse this weekend), as well as my wife's Dinc2 which never has trouble.
