Manhattan Kansas area: I bought a galaxy s3 13 Mar and currently have no service available. After opening the phone in the store I had service and was able to activate/register it as well as set up a $45 monthly access plan (I switched phone my phone number from Verizon successfully). Immediately after activating, service disappears. So, Verizon line is cancelled, ST line with successful number transfer doesn't work and leaves me with no way to call ST, I spent about 7 HOURS In Wal-Mart for support to find out Kansas is in a blackout (?). Originally thought it might be because phone came w/o sim card but Wal-Mart tech confirmed with ST, one isn't needed (phone transferred from doesn't have one). PHONE USES VPN. Checked some different sites online and it turns out I'm the only person in my area complaining of this "blackout" issue. I need this resolved THIS WEEKEND at the latest.
