Stupid company

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I went to another company owe Verizon 10.14 and can't pay it because I'm on paperless billing and have know account number and they don't reconize my number anymore. I finally get a person to talk to and she tells me I have to go in the store to pay it or give her 10.00 to pay it. I'm so glad I'm rid of this company.

Where is Verizon wireless accidentally disconnected the wrong router and I lost my Internet for weeks months. Who knows how long

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

This is a rant against Verizon recently. I ordered a router for 5G Internet from Verizon to make a long story short.

I had a 4G box and instead of disconnecting the correct box they connected the wrong box. The 5G didnt work, and after disconnecting the 4G box they couldnt get the 4G box working either because theres only so many slots that are allowed For the Internet 5G so that means that I could be weeks days months before I finally get Internet again because the slots are gone once the box is disconnected.

Their system is such that they cant undo the mistake they made so Im out of Internet for I dont know how long Im furious!!! There is no other Internet available because theyre all going to fiber optics in the apartment complex. Here does not allow fiber optics well actually its not the complex is the government housing development department.

I forgot what thats called anyway thats my rant im sitting here staring at the walls no TV no nothing to take up my time. Im going nuts, Stir crazy because Verizon is too stupid to make a system where they can undo their mistakes.

User's recommendation: I have no recommendations except if you can go with someone else go with them don’t go with Verizon. They have a gate keeper system in there that makes it extremely difficult to get a hold of a human being and they just plain aren’t decision for them to do something so stupid as to disconnect my Internet box And then be unable to fix it. It’s crazy.

Verizon overnighted a new box that should arrive tomorrow which means I might have Internet much sooner than I thought I would that’s all I’d like to add. Thank you.

Need pin #

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I wasn't answered at all. I can't just make a payment online; my phone locks up randomly.

My mom was dying in the hospital, and the phone locked up. I had to reset it, losing all contacts, emails, etc.

My daughter offered to put me on her plan because I'm homeless and struggling, and I can't get my PIN. That could be important to get a job and move forward.

Horrible customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Original review updated Apr 17, 2025

I can not get my phone to work. I've been having trouble for hours trying to find a number or a way to speak to an actual person.

I have been a Verizon wireless customer for over 8 years. I can not believe that this is the way I'm being treated. I have had trouble with my new phone from day one. There is no actual way to get help or to speak to customer service.

I called around five different numbers and basically they all hung up on me. Verizon wireless makes billions!

Where is customer service? They don't give a ***

NO SIGNAL

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have called several times to get this resolved. I am not receiving calls or texts for months now.

I am tired of calling and having to go thru so many steps for hours and the issue not being resolved. I need to know how to get a refund on my phone and also off my bill for service since verizon has been unable to solve this problem. I have been with verizon for many years and I am tired of spending that much money for a service that does not work.

Several times when I try to make a call, it fails. I am elderly and disable and I need a service that works.

Verizon will disclose your PII

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Someone signed up for about 6 phones and somehow someone in the store assigned them to my email address but not my account. I have been a customer with the same email address over 10 years.

I contacted Verizon as soon as I started getting emails for someone name Alberto.

I now know Alberto's phone numbers, address, what kinds of phones they have and I also get Alberto's delinquent bills.

I'm a 3rd party and they have disclosed all of this information to me.

It's been about 6 weeks and I have called back twice and each time they tell me they will get it fixed but it will take 10 business days.

Don't give them your info. They do not care how it is handled.

THEY BILL IN ADVANCE AND WHEN I CANCELLED THEY CONTINUED TO CHARGE FOR 3 MONTHS. Called when I realized and they said they would refund me but never did. I'm reporting to BBB and a lawyer

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

My phone was transferred to another company and billing was supposed to stop but did NOT. When I contacted Verizon they told me they would refund $308.77 (4/4/25).

As of today 4/28/25 they're trying to autodraft more money and have not yet refunded me what was due. I have a Case # and spoke with Sheldon a Verizon rep and what he promised me did NOT happen. Again, I'm on the phone with Verizon and they still are promising me to do this - I won't believe VERIZON ever again.

Wait and see with them!!!

REMEMBER - They bill in Advance - so I have no phone with them but they're billing me. What's wrong with this picture???

Get new phones

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Original review updated Mar 10, 2025

Ordered new phones that were supposed to be there in 2 days. It's been more than a week and we still haven't received our new phones.

They said there was a problem in the fraud department, which there wasn't. We still have not received our phones 10 days later and nobody can seem to help us. I've been a Verizon customer for more than 45 years, never been late on a bill or missed a payment, and there should have absolutely been no reason for that kind of company behavior towards a consumer. Went to Verizon again today for the 3rd or 4th time, still have not received my new phones, and I was there for an hour and a half and still nothing got resolved.

Not sure I understand the reason behind Verizon's explanation and behavior towards a consumer that's been loyal for over 40 years.

This is absurd and totally uncalled for, and I truly believe that I should be compensated by Verizon for this poor behavior on their behalf. After this, I would not recommend them to you.

My bill

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I went to Verizon and got an up grade as well as the extra insurance to replace my phone if needed. Before my year was up my phone was not working correctly.

I went to Verizons store where I got the phone. They replaced my phone,but I had trouble transferring information. Went back to the Verizon store about four times. I gave up on getting my information transferred so I went to return the phone to the store I was informed at that time I didnt return phones there I had to mail it in.

For almost 20 years I have been buying phones and returning them at the same store. Before I could get it mailed I got a call from Verizon asking me if I could get it mailed by January 22 I said yes. I have proof I mailed it. Verizon turned off my phone I have a 1800.00 phone bill.

My phone bill was 138.00 a month.

I have tried and tried to straten this out. I need help but dont know where to go.
