This will prevent your phone from roaming onto other networks.
I wouldn't say its a phone issue cause this used to happen to me, but the phone worked fine when it was used in another carrier

I've got an issue....


my phone no longer shows me in a Wind AWAY zone... it always shows HOME... now you might be thinking that maybe im just always in a HOME zone

but no, i got my bill recently and it has me using Data in an AWAY zone -_- (only $0.98)
and I make sure to check every time I'm going to text or use data whether im in a HOME or AWAY zone

I tried asking Wind about it but couldnt submit my query so i let it slide (since its only 98c) and Wind didn't have a symbian^3 phone yet at the time, so i figured they wouldn't be able to do much troubleshooting


anyway anyone else have this problem?

EPIC BUMP FROM THE DEAD

So I asked a Wind Rep at Richmond Centre this past week about their coverage, and whether Delta is now under a "Wind Zone".

He said yes, it's jsut that the website isn't updated as frequently anymore...
can anyone confirm that Delta is, in fact, a wind zone? (I'm planning to jump ship to wind)

The 40 dollar plan is so tempting. Too bad I'm on contract.....sighhh

If only WIND had this unicorn promo where they would pay for the early cancellation fees and let people switch to them.

I can confirm this, I usually get 1-2 bars at work and sometimes none, (located on 8510 River Rd) then one day I lost all signal. Next day I had full bars anywhere in the workplace I went.

Which I can only assume they set up their "Wind Zone" near there.

does your phone show "Wind Zone" though or "Away Zone"

This is just about the only thing keeping me from auctioning off my plan on craigslist

I'd go with the c7 for the amoled screen + free ovi maps, not to mention the free swag with purchase which could be had at the nokia site
