I have an Iphone 5 that has worked fine until today. Since this morning, I show that I am connected to the data network, but I am unable to use any data. The maps app, email, etc. will not work. I called Verizon and did a network reset, also a reboot, a hard reboot, a phone reset. In each case I could get data for a few minutes then it reverts to not being able to use the phone to access the internet, mail, etc.
I am currently in Phoenix, AZ. I also ordered an Iphone 6 plus yesterday, but the representative said this would not be the issue.
