Awful Customer Service

I have been a customer for over 20 years. Recently, I lost my job so I had to make a payment arrangement.

My account was deducted twice. I called my bank and Verizon, who both advised me to call the other company. Well, they were duplicate payments and they were only supposed to reverse one. So Verizon suspended services as both payments were reversed.

I paid the very instant I realized, which was at disconnection, but it didn't register in the system. I paid on my Verizon app like usual, but the payment was applied to a Fios Account that I closed and no longer had one month ago. They stated they had to do an investigation that would take 2-3 days, all while I still had no service. After 20 years, you would think that they would at least restore service until the investigation was complete.

They would not make an exception at all.

Verizon used to be great with customer service. I don't know if they are now outsourcing, but I plan to switch.

Roaming is no longer working and there is no roaming icon on my phone

I am in Asia. I have the international plan but my phone wasnt working.

I tried 6 times to call
Customer Service and was disconnected! When I finally got through I was on the phone for 2 hours but a really intelligent tech support person fixed my problem which was caused by a. Verizon employee who sold me the phone!!! So I give a big EXCELLENT to the tech support person.

Tracy, from Florida but a big ZERO. To the guy in Rochester , New York ( Victor store) who sold me the phone!!!

How Good is Verizon's Customer Service?

All people spoken to were GREAT, really, really tried to accommodate me. Unfortunately, still no resolution. I've been with you 10 years and rec'd fantastic service but at 80 yrs of age I don't use all the new gadgets so a tracfone phone for about 10dollars a month is all I need. I want to get an authorization number to transfer my no.to avoid losing my present number. One gentleman tried to waive needing the number so I wouldn't have to do a 2 and half hr drive to a corporate store to show ID. Local store could not do that as they are a retail store. When tracfone tried to set up the transfer the procedure still required the no. So somehow, the waiver would not work as it is automated and not excepting any deviation. I spent all afternoon speaking to both companies and an HR the day before. Still no solution. HELP

Horrible.
Either have to repeat the same sorry again and again with a solution or unable to reach any live person.
The system is fundamentally broke. Have no idea how they conduct business.
