Cannot Unlock my Phone :(

I must've pushed down the # sign long enough so it locked, and I cannot for the life of me remember my password, is there anyway I can get in it at all? I've tried so many combinations.

1234? Thats usually the default. Or you could call your provider from a different phone and have them tell you.

Verizon. You don't think I've tried those? Honestly, I've tried about 100 combinations. My last 4 digits of my number, last digits of SSN, even my last 4 digits of my home phone 6 years ago.

Is the password sent to the phone company? I would figure it would just be stored on the phone.

Disconnect the battery and then reboot the phone?

Nah, that wouldn't do it. It's stored in the memory, if contacts don't erase when you do that, whether or not the locked feature is enabled shouldn't either.

I called and they said I need to go to a Verizon store to hook it up to a computer and see if they can do it that way. She wasn't even sure. If I have to pay more than 5 bux for this, ill be pizered.
