So day before yesterday at about 9 oclock I was in the middle of like 3 different text conversations when all of a sudden I didnt get any more incoming texts messages but I could still send fine. My phone gets calls just fine and my GF swears she texted me back and I was like its cool no sweat, so then at about 4am yesterday morning I get a flood of texts coming in.
Whatever.
So yesterday (last night) my texts were working okay, and then about 8pm the same ******** started happening and I was like wow no more texts coming in, and still havent recieved any incoming and had multiple people tell me they texted, sent pictures, etc, I even tried sending myself a message using the cricket website. (its 2:47am westcoast time). Any thoughts etc? Resetting the phone doesnt do anything. Placing a call doesnt work either. So I guess I am waiting till 7am central time or whatever to call their customer service which I swear is in like Jamaica or something...

Background on location: I live in an "un-cricket" area, because I moved to the city of Bend Oregon from Portland Oregon and they dont have cricket out here yet but they have plenty of (cdma) sprint, verizon, and US-Cellular so coverage is not a problem. I tried to hit *228 to update my towers or whatever but that doesnt work. I get the guy saying please dial 10 digits when trying to place a call. Its pretty ******** because I wanted to purchase a new phone and can get one if I get it sent to my old address in portland but I cant have it sent out here because they tell me this is a pay-go area only. The guy who sold me the phone said that cricket works wherever sprint does and so far its fine, just some areas where I get the triangle I cant place calls but I can still text, so I dunno. For the price its fine and works for me. Thanks for any help or suggestions.
