Whenever i send texts to people, they lag..?

Question

I just got the LG Shine.

Whenever i send texts to other people, (especially VERIZON) the texts seem to take up to an hour and a half to reach the person i'm sending it to. When they text me back, i get it almost immediately.

Is something wrong with my phone or is something wrong with theirs?

I don't understand what is happening, and can this be because of my phone model? i have a feeling that since it is made of steel, it may take longer for the signal to get out there..

And if i call the Cingular company, what will i tell them?

Answer 1

LG phones seem to have problems and the steel is probably one of the problems and you should try to get a new phone here's a suggestion Samsung blackjack 2

Answer 2

Thats Verizon for you, a terrible service

Answer 3

It's not your phone, it's Verizon. When sending a Verizon to Verizon message the txt goes quickly but when it's sent from Verizon to any other phone carrier it lags. Hope I helped!

Answer 4

When you call the cingular company, tell them exactly that! lol
