I'm going to college in NY and I'm from PA. Whenever I go to NY and even on campus, my service isn't as great as when I'm in PA. Other people had Verizon at orientation, but they had a different model phone and their service worked fine. I have an LG Chocolate vx8550. If I keep having problems with service when I'm at college, is there anything they can do? Also, will I be charged with roaming? Thanks!
