new mpx220s running great

The only problem so far is that when she plugs her phone into the usb cable, it doesn't connect a lot of the time. She has to hold it just right. Is this something that can be fixed, or should I try to exchange the phone for another? I bought it from mobilebee and they have a 14 day exchange policy so I should be covered....

Thanks for everyone who has posted anything helpful here

Maybe it is just the cable....
