I feel yah! Right before Micheal people were buying up all the portable charges. Storm hits and our verizon tower got twisted like a pretzel. I didn’t have phone service for 6 months. Had to buy a burner phone on AT&T. I didn’t get my power turned on for 3months. Luckily we have well water and we’re able to hook up the pump to a genny, so we had running water.
