he best thing that happened to me all day

It was bound to happen.... I was perched on a rock near water, got a txt message took my beloved Voyager out to read the txt. laid it beside me on the rock. Saw a boat with a dog coming in, turned ever so slightly to get the shot.

went to pick up phone to read text, yes.. you guessed it. It has slipped to it's watery grave.

:-(

I fished it out. I thought ah ah I have insurance on it. Went to local Verizon store. Oh so in order for me to take advantage of the insurance I've been paying I have to have a phone shipped to me? Right..... Ok I need a phone now so -- yes -- I am stupid.. I will pay the full price because I NEED a phone.

What??? You are counting this as an upgrade before my contract is over and charging me as such?

If I didn't need the phone I would have let them ship me the phone, and it just doesn't make GOOD sense that Verizon Wireless lets me pay insurance on my phone yet I can't use it in a Verizon WIRELESS store.

I will call and complain and nothing will happen.

It just doesn't MAKE GOOD SENSE Verizon....

So I am home now with my NEW Phone I PAID full price for.
