I hate Verizon and I switched away from them last year. My wife is stuck with them because her family still uses Verizon so they are "in network".
Verizon has always given me poor service and I hate how everything is additional fees.

AT&T FTW.... and iPhone FTMFW!!!! I don't believe I have ever had a dropped call with AT&T. The only place I don't get service is at work, but that's ok because we're not allowed to use the in the plant. Our area also doesn't have 3G network yet, but I think we will because I suspect our area to be booming once the economy picks back up and we hire a second shift.

Dropped Sprint like a Honduh tranny like 3 years ago. Eff Sprint. I LOOOOOVE Verizon. I've had occasion to call VZ Customer Service like 6 times in the last 3 years, not counting follow up calls. They've bent over backwards to help me out several times and IMMEDIATLY admitted their mistakes. When they realized that I lived in a bad reception area, THEY CALLED ME to see why the system could only intermittently detect me. They've since boosted power here like they did in NM so I can have better signal. Rumor is that new towers are being planned already. I've been here a year. Can NOT complain about VZW at all. One issue we had with VZW is during an insurance claim last year when I was at Recruiting School. My daughter decided to let my wife's phone go for a swim. In the toilet. No problem, send $50 for the deductible, and you get another phone. We receive the phone. Turns out the phone's programming was never lobotomized during servicing. We got to keep that phone and they sent a BRAND NEW phone for free. That might be the issue with your phone, it was pre-owned and never lobotomized.

All programming, anything in memory, anything in firmware, software, hardware, underwear, anywhere in that device, COMPLETELY flashed. Then everything gets re-loaded onto the device, aside from user-specific data...like registration information, pictures, music, preferences...crap like that.

Yeah I'm realy liking AT&T right now.

I've had AT&T/Cingular since I got my first phone, and don't have any complaints.
Now, if I could just find a dependable phone. <_<

Yeah I'm realy liking AT&T right now. [/b]Really? WOW! When I was shopping around for a new phone and contract, I had it narrowed down to an iPhone (AT&T), a voyager(VZW) or the long awaited blackberry storm(VZW). And I'm really happy I went with AT&T as my provider, plus most of my family has it. I have heard nothing but bad things about the storm. Bottom line, verizon probably doesn't have bad service but their phones are JUNK!

I have Verizon, and love it. I don't do the whole internet phone thing, though. I have the Envy 2, and it isn't junk at all and you get great service.
