Where I am at school I'm in the extended network, and I keep getting a message on my iPhone saying, "Data roaming is turned off, Use Wi-Fi or enable data roaming. Additional fees may apply." Do anyone know if this will actually apply fees?
What does your signal indicator read in terms of network technology being linked up? Is it 3G or something else? You might need to just call Verizon at 611 and discuss your coverage issues with them. Sometimes a local tower issue could be to blame for such things. Don't be afraid to call them up and ask.

When in 3G areas it displays Verizon 3G in the top left of the screen. When I'm in the extended network it says, Extended with an "o" next to it. I think I resolved my issue though. I rebooted the phone and it seems to be working now, just very slow.

In the extended network calling *228 is not possible
Ya, you're in a crappy coverage area. I'd call Verizon and complain about the lack of coverage in that area. Keep calling a few times a month and have your friends do the same if they're with Verizon and they'll get the point soon enough.
