when verizon gives you an actual time of when somethings supposed to be fixed. ITS NEVER GOING TO BE FIXED in the time they say.

[Omie]

It was reported that most of the networks were having problems since friday the 13th

Yes there was an email outage Friday it should get resolved if it hasn't already but it caused problems with email and initial set up of Blackberrys

[nj2tx123]

i never lost access to email, but the weird thing is all the email that was coming in said it was sent from 2006! weird!

[Seraph08]

I had a customer in the store on Thursday whose calendar kept bringing up an appt. from 1896. It was kinda creepy!

That is true. Most of the Verizon issues I have had over the years were resolved before the ETR date

What OS are you running? If it were me I'd back up your stuff, wipe the device, reinstall the OS and possibly go to .109 then resend service books etc. Tech support usually isn't much help.

DUDE that would be a mistake, it was a known network issue. Why go through all that hassle?

Because IT lies. I've seen them do that to several of my customers when in fact it was the device. The service ticket is their way of passing the buck and getting rid of you. Why would it be just his phone in his area then? The OP clearly said that his friend's blackberries in the same area were working just fine.

[madphone]

quit screaming (all caps)????

Mine was not working a couple days ago but now it is fine also.

[TheThurgodMarshl]

on friday i had 20 emails show up from 2-4 years ago. marked as unopened. they have long been read and since have been gathering e-dust in my hotmail. i thought it strange. nothing since.

[Jemni61]

thanks for replies...I will give it till tomorrow..72 hours to start working again..then I am returning to verizon store..fix on the spot or exchange.

[hookbill]

I've never had a problem with email through google. Maybe if verizon is giving you issues you can set up an email account with google, or yahoo?

[Dragon_Rider]

Your email should be working again by now. If it is not, I would wipe my currect accounts and set them up again.

If that does not correct the problem, you may have a devise problem.

[janey6152]

Dam mines stop working thrusday march 12th and its still not working.. I'm in PA, Poconos Maybe i have to reset , if so how ..

[Ferman07]

Hey man I live in Chicago too and haven;t had any issues. Very weird

Yeah IT does lie, but more often they just don't know The techs might of made a ticket/work order to get off the call since they didn't/couldn't fix the issue. My rep advised me of the issue via email on Saturday so if the OP called on Friday perhaps not all reps were up to speed yet
