service wise, this is the first time ive had a problem with verizon. hardware wise, well thats a different story. i was bored before, so i went though my files and found that in the year and a half i’ve had verizon, i have had my cell phone replaces 16 times. every phone was ‘defective’ according to them. i can understand 1 or 2, but 16?? i take really good care of my phones too and dont drop them beat them up or anything. but i will remain a verizon customer cuz they have me by the balls with that free network calling, and just about everyone i know has verizon, so it works for me. ---

i had a Motorola (not the V170 as i previously stated…its some other one i dont think they even make anymore) and the LG VX8300. neither were really cheap introductory phones, but they weren’t the most expensive either. id expect them to last more than a month or 2 (if im lucky). i think my next phone is going to be the LG enV. my friend has it and i was messing around with it the one day and i really liked it. she drops it all the time and it gets a good beating (i think most girls cell phones do, but maybe just hers) and she has never had a problem with it. ---

I’ve had service with just about every company you can think of and i rank them as follows… Verizon Cingular Tmobil Nextel Sprint AT&T Cricket For Verizon customers you know you can update your phone about once a month right? Apparantly it refreshes your phone to all of the new or updated signals or something like that. Dial \*228 it will automaticly re-program your phone. I went about an hour 3 or 4 times where I had no service and could not send/recieve texts and after I do the reprogram thing it started working again. ---

> [@evolve](#): > > 😛 see latest consumer reports :shoot: word! been a verizon customer since i was 16 (6 years later and still happy) had a few problems, a major one in which our business won a lawsuit vs them, but since then things have been great. although i agree verizons service is the best, cingular phones rock!
