Data/Voice Outage

[snobro]

I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing a six hour delay or anything similar on text messages starting on February 28 or March 1.

Is there a possible workaround to this issue?

Still rocking the OV, until the grandfathered plan goes away.

This is exactly why am no longer a sprint or virgin customer after several outages in 2011 and 2012. I switched to Verizon. PagePlus to be more specific $55 unlimited talk text and 2 GB of data. And rarely ever signal problems on Verizon Data speeds on 3G are 10 times better then on the Sprint network. I can consistently pull 2 MB plus downloading speeds. Plus PagePlus allows Any 3G enabled Verizon phone with a clean ESN to be put on it. Unlike Virginmobile where you have to buy virgin mobile branded phones.

I work in the industry...all carriers have problems one time or another and Verizon is no different. I've seen areas where Sprint has better reliability then Verizon and visa verse. But I do have to give the upper hand to Verizon only because they have equipment in quite a bit more towers then Sprint. A lot of times it comes down to the area you live in.

unless you live in a major city or along a highway then you wont get coverage. I've learned the hard way with sprint/Virgin. While with verizon i get full bars 95% and if not full bars then at least 3 bars
