Do you have location turned on ?
If you have it set for only 911, only 911 knows where you are.
If you have the location turned on, then the phone company you have the cell phone with, will try to find your phone when you get a call(otherwise if you leave your area, the carier will not find you.)
Hi. I have Cingular and upgraded my phone about 9 months ago and signed another 2 year contract. Long story short phone appeared to never have service in areas it should have. But the phone would not show "no service". (it would appear as if the call should go thru) If you were lucky enough to get a call thru it dropped you. After much frustration Cingular replaced the phone. I have the same problem with the replacement phone. Could it possibly be a bad SIM card???
Also... with 1+ year still left on my contract... could my phone get "lost" and be replaced at cost to me with the same number??? I do not have insurance.
Thank you
