Update: While customer service was nice and helpful, the lady told me that since my 1st phone seemed to still be in shipping, (I shipped it on Oct 8th), they could not send me a 3rd phone until that was received. I decided I would go to my closest corporate store and just return the G2 I had and get a Note 3 and new sim. I left the store, which I live about an hour from (traffic) and got home and made a call to order take out. Huh, what is this squealing and crackling I am hearing? I'm getting the same thing from the Note 3!!! I put my sim back in my old phone, a GS3, and it worked fine. I have come to 2 possible conclusions so far. 1. The new S800 processor is not playing well with my (our) accounts. 2. The infrastructure is not supporting the new S800 processor phones in certain areas. My step dad who got a new verizon account and a Note 3 last week has not said anything to me about it but I plan to call him when he gets home tonight to ask if he is having these issues. We live about ~10 miles away from each other so I assume he is using similar towers. I will edit if there is anything else I find out.
Edit: Went over to my parents house when my step dad got home to test out his Note 3. Put his sim in my phone and put my sim in his phone. Yeah it is my account, his sim worked fine in each phone while my sim made each phone sound like crap in phone calls.
