Well, I don't even know where to start! I'm on either my 8th or 9th Tour in appoximately 10 months. Here is what happens. Same exact thing with every single one of them.

The phone works like a dream at first. Then, anywhere between a week and 5 weeks later people will start to sound really staticky and there is like a real loose crackling sound for me. The people I'm talking to say on their end nothing sounds different. So basically, in a matter of like a 5 minute call my phone will be great and everybody sounds normal to it being horribly annoying and the phone needing replacing. Every time I take one into Verizon they try to blow out the earpiece. They think I'm bat **** crazy and then they try and talk on the phone and it takes them about 3 seconds to realize they will go insane trying to talk on the phone. Blowing out the earpiece doesn't do anything and they just give me a new phone. Usually, it has to be mailed to me and it's a pain in the ****. Totally sick of it.

Anybody out there experience anything like this?
