Since it was purchased from Best Buy, and it is only 3 months old, you need to contact Best Buy. The device should have a one year manufactures warranty that covers defects. It hasn't been subjected to neglect or abuse, they should replace it under warranty.

They told me to send it to the manufacturer which means i will be out of phone for the next 2-3 weeks... Great!! Anyhow, thanks for responding.

Manufacturing Defect
A manufacturing defect is something that's wrong with the device itself (e.g., internal, electrical or functional problems). It doesn't include physical damage caused by outside forces.
Your options for replacing a device with a manufacturing defect are based on how long it's been since you purchased the device. Visit My Verizon to verify how long you have had your device or to view when you are eligible to upgrade.
- Less than 1 year since purchase
The device will be replaced at no cost. If it's been more than 15 days since purchase, it'll be replaced with a Certified Like-New Replacement (a like unit or one of comparable quality).
Call (866) 406-5154 from a phone other than the one you're experiencing a problem with (toll-free from a landline phone) or visit a Verizon Wireless store to verify your eligibility.
You might want to update this as well and state all conditions.

By the way, what difference does it make if i purchased it from Best Buy? The box has Verizon Wireless Logo all over it..... This is what makes AT&T superior over you. Whether it was purchased from Best Buy or other Vendors, they will replace the damaged phone.... NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!!

Something tells me you went to a 3rd party retailer. When you were with AT&T you had a corporate store nearby so you didn't know. All carriers have 3rd party resellers with the carrier branding.
