She said to dial *** send after you drop a call, wait until it picks up and then hang up. I'm not sure if thats a one time thing or every time you drop a call. It's definitely worth checking into though, especially if you live in an area where service is patchy. Hope this helps someone out!

This may be valid, but I couldn't find anything on the Verizon web site to indicate that it is.
Instead, what I found was this; from the Verizon customer agreement:
"If you get disconnected by our network from a call in your home rate and coverage area, redial. If the same number answers within 5 minutes, call us within 90 days and we'll give you a 1-minute airtime credit. If service is interrupted in your home rate and coverage area for more than 24 hours in a row due to our fault, call us within 180 days and we'll give you a credit for the period of interruption. These are your only rights for dropped calls or interrupted service."
Another page on the same site says:
"If you get disconnected by our network from a call in your home rate area, redial. If the same number answers within 5 minutes, call us within 7 days and we'll give you a 1-minute airtime credit."
Nothing about dialing ***. Of course, you could call Verizon and ask them.
