alright,
so i've been having problems like ALL YEAR, where i have to send texts like 20 times before they go through and get texts late and blah blah blah, and sometimes my phone doesn't receive calls or anything.
this was an off and on thing. sometimes it was normal.
sometimes it wasn't.
i heard this was a pretty common problem here at mac :|
TODAY. i'm not getting ANY TEXTS. can't call ANYONE. can't RECEIVE ANYTHING.
all day.
restarted my phone like 20 times.
nothing's working.
what's going on? anyone else in the same boat?
i'm with Rogers, i have an LG xenon (which, i admit, is glitchy) but i'm pretty sure it's not the phone's fault :|
let me knowww.
thanks

Maybe you're not getting calls or texts because you're not as popular as you think you are.
...
Nah, I'm with Rogers and I'm having trouble sending/receiving texts/calls around Mac too. Not sure what we can do; it's probably Mac's problem but it probably doesn't seem to affect enough people for the administration to care about.

This is exactly why I switched from Rogers to Bell. My roommate was also having trouble. Definitely call Rogers to check

I'm having problems as well and it's driving me insane.
LG Xenon (L) with Fido
getting texts like 3 hours later, all out of order. can't send any, have to retry like 5 times. I usually have reception in most buildings, but now I can't even send goddamn texts in the student centre, HSC, Thode, mills. can barely make any phone calls.
And a few times it's worked fine at my house and on the bus, but as soon as the bus I'm on enters campus, it stops. It's ridiculous.

yeah that phone call was pointless, he told me it might be everyone's phone and they should call Rogers from a payphone when its happening. Somehow I dont think everyones phone is broken. I tried explaining that its just when were at campus but I dont think he understood.

I'm having the EXACT same problem... Rogers, LG Xenon, not old enough for it to be having trouble.
Receiving messages late, and so on...
Rogers doesn't care.
