I tried to call a relative of mine many times, who later told me he screens calls by letting it go to an answering machine. Only it never did. So I wrote to him via snail mail. When he finally called me, my phone hung up after only one ring. When I returned his call, I reached a "Funeral Scheduling" service.

Also, several text messages I sent and received while on a road trip were not received until three days later.

Have things like this happened to anyone else? What might explain it?

Verizon for the businessman. A different but equally large provider for us. Everyone shares all the same networks, so it's really a matter of just figuring out which will be the smaller bill these days. Ting was great, but had a lot of dead zones in my neck of the woods, or I'd still be with them. Some months my bills were barely $10.
