Im Having Service issues with my LG phone & no longer having good service or any service for that matter,in my home area where i normally would receive excellent signal until now! I called verizon and they told me their is no service interuptions in the area, and then once i leave my home area, I get excellent service with out an issue. I have the LG vx8600 & my wifes phone service has lost alot also and she has the razor. VZW said i have a bad phone and their sending me a new one ACTUALLY THEIR SENDING ME A REFURBISHED PHONE ! I AM PISSED OFF ABOUT THAT ! IVE HAD THIS PHONE FOR 6 Weeks and since its past 30 day i would only receive a refurbished one ! But i beleive their is something up with the tower in the area.? anyone familar with orange county ny.? Also i no longer receive signal in my home and where I used to in my home was never an issue. I always had a full signal or a couple bars less ! Thanks all for your input !
did you explain to them that your wife's phone is having issues as well? Usually when you explain that to them they can easily see its the network, and will open a trouble ticket for you. That's what happened in my case anyway. After you get your refurb phone and the service is still bad, let them know that, and that will let them rule out and phone trouble and hopefully they'll see its the network. Just to let you know: Any refurb phones Ive delt with them before have always been in new condition. I really think you'll be okay with the phone, but if something were to happen they will definetly take care of you.
Well actually My wifes phone is ok ! her service seems to have lost a bit of signal strength, however I was speaking to tech support on her razor and heard him clear as day where as my phone was switching back and forth searching for service, which it has never done in my area and i was in my home! sorry for the wrong info ! thanks for the info
Well now about a week of having the the refubished 8600 phone i was replaced with this phone now crapped out ! Im now having NO CELL SIGNAL AT ALL! ....i CALLED VZW AND spoke with tech support and they toldl me to go to a vzw store and have it replaced with the 8700 if i like !which i will gladley do however I hope not to have the same issues! any insites on my phone issues. ???thanks all as usuall!
when verizon was installing vcast to the network in my town the service was bad for a few days. but once everything was up and running i noticed that signal was great again. but your problem sems a little different. just throwing a few ideas out there.
I appreciate your insite, however my wife who has a raZor is having no issues with the phoen !no its something with the phone !
Yolu could be having a defective refurb... My sons phone crapped out and we went through 5 lg phones until they switch models.
I had the same problem (and still am) with my VX8600. People call me and they go straight to voice mail, and my text msgs are "stored" until they appear hours later. Verizon told me that it's because of the "terrain of my area." My husband does not have this problem in the house, he also has Verizon service but has a Blackberry. Verizon sent me the same phone and I'm still having problems with it. Can a specific phone have service problems?
LG phones have been known to have mixed reception. Though, I thought the VX8600 was better with reception than other LG's. Phones can make a difference. Motorola's and Nokia's have been known to have excellent reception.
