Default Phone book meltdown

Hi Everyone,
I am having a real hassle with my Verizon phone contact list--those folks have really been impossible to work with. The main screen burned out on my 6 month old cell phone, and they are saying that it got wet....Just because I put it in the dishwasher to get it really clean!

Anyhow, I will be getting a new phone and phone service come the first of the year, and would like to start rebuilding my contact list. Would you all be so kind as to send me your number(s) so I can keep you in my life? I would be SO appreciative!

I don't want to miss out on being able to contact you--keeping you in my life is really important to me. Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me out, Dear Ones! Happy holidays, and I fervently hope you will send me your phone number.
Much love!
Donna

Just for future reference Donna....you can save your phonebook to Verizonwireless.com and have it somewhere safe should you lose it again. Haven't done it yet myself, but recently saw that feature online. In fact, I think I'll try it right now.

Yep, I know that and actually have a backup account. This last summer when my phone first died, the people I bought the new phone from assured me that they had carried over my directory, but like so many other things they promised me they'd done, they didn't. But now I know how to do it myself, and as soon as I get my new service (NOT Verizon!) I will do that immediately. People with Verizon, BEWARE! They are a bunch of lying loser lizards!

Default Can I get your input, please?

Okay, Everyone,
Help me out here......who likes their cell phone carrier, and who are they? Why do you like them? My contract is up 1-3-08, and I want a new carrier by 1-4-08. I can and will use all the input I can get. Dropped calls? Clear connections? No roaming charges? Lots o minutes? Good price? Good phones? Wide service area? Anything else? Who hates their carrier? Why?

I have Verizon and have been pretty happy with it. I lose calls here and there but nothing horrible. I do pay a lot for all my minutes and texting and crap. You can find decent contracts though. GOod luck finding your new service hon.
Oh... the lying loser lizards. Thanks for the laugh!

Donna, sweetie...
My son and I use AT&T...I have been with the various carriers that recently became AT&T for about 17 years. I have never had a complaint. I was at the mall the other day, and the guy was so desperate to have me add hubby to my account, he was going to give me a free phone, waive the activation charge, and a couple other things I can't remember. Maybe next time you're at the mall, see what they'll give you.
