    I am writing a quick customer service review in reference to a staff member at the Verizon store at 14031 Hubble Drive Jacksonville, Fl. 32218. Her name is **. I brought my mother in to switch to Verizon from another network company. My mother is relatively blind and is confused with all new technology. Mindy was extremely patient, kind, knowledgeable, and professional. She explained everything in simple terms that my mother understood, and anything that was not understood at first, Mindy took the time to explain again, even a different way if that was required. She showed excellent customer service towards my mother, and even joked around with her on different issues, allowing my mother to feel comfortable with her. She stayed the entire lengthy process, and assisted my mother (and my aunt who came along as well), in obtaining the required transfer information from the previous carrier.

    She remained focused with this transaction until the end, and made sure myself, my mother, and my aunt were all clear and comfortable with all that took place, as well as the end result. Finally she explained the different charges/changes that we could expect over the next month/billing cycle that would occur. Mindy was exceptional, and she is a great asset to Verizon. Scott

    On November 3, 2025, I reviewed my Verizon automatic billing and discovered that my November bill had increased from $119.89 to $190.44. I printed out the billing and observed that my Veterans' discount of $35.00 had been removed and certain administrative fees had been increased, albeit minimally. But the increase in billing was a surprise and seemed capricious.

    Upon calling Verizon customer service, a service agent named Robi took my call and, thereafter, corrected all my issues and reapplied the Veterans' discount and other discounts to my billing, and also applied said discount to my next billing to correct its removal from the present billing. She was extremely helpful, patient, courteous, and informative, and went out of her way to correct my serious concerns about Verizon's action on my account. She even advised that several customers had notified Verizon that their Veteran discount had been removed. She said these were being addressed or had been addressed.

    I anticipated Verizon customer service would be disinterested in my complaint and would be uncooperative, but I found just the opposite. I want to use this review to acknowledge customer service agent Robi as the ideal agent for handling controversial issues with Verizon. I know this review isn't the common review, but when a customer is treated fairly and with due diligence by a customer service agent, a positive review may be significant as a change agent for the organization.

      I’m a personal assistant for Ms ** who is an 89 year old senior but very savvy for age and needed a phone upgrade. She was reluctant to upgrade and learn how to maneuver a new phone at her age and was comfortable with her outdated phone. Ms. ** needed more storage to move forward and deleting apps etc. would not fully help her case. Upon entering your store in Kernersville NC, we were greeted by Zane. He was very professional, friendly and took a caring and understanding approach to assisting Ms. **. He thoroughly explained everything to make her feel not pressured and assured her that the bill wouldn’t be impacted with the upgrade. He even went to her car after the business was done and connected her new phone to the Bluetooth.

      Zane went above and beyond to assure Ms. ** was comfortable and understood each step after her old phone was changed to the new Google Pixel 9 phone. Kudos to Verizon for employing such a caring individual who was not all about pushing a sale and seeing the customer as if she was his own grandmother. Great job Zane.

      I try not to go to Verizon often, as I am not technology savvy. I'm in the middle of a bunch of stuff and neither of my phones were working. I am getting ready to have major surgery, plus I've got a contract on my house, so I only had 20 minutes until my next appointment. When I signed in, there were 5 people in front of me. Paul was roaming the store, checking on everyone. I told him that both phones were not working, I have a lot going on, and I had 20 minutes, or I'd come back after my appointment. He helped me right away, fixed both phones, and I was out the door and made my appointment on time!!! What a relief! Kudos to Paul at the Mount Peasant, SC location! He deserves a raise!

      P.S. I didn't have a chance to take a selfie with him, since I was in such a time crunch, but next time, Paul. 😎 Thank you.

      This place and the people who work here are fantastic. I needed assistance with something, and they patiently waited for an hour as I tried to reach out to the core department for support. Kendrick has made Verizon's customer service in Riverton unparalleled. No matter what, you stuck with me until, and I quote you, "I'll stay with you until you are serviced and the problem is resolved." I also thought the floor manager was really kind and accommodating.

      In spite of Core's rude treatment of me, I am moving forward because of you. Going out of her way to assist me in resolving the issue, Teri from Service Support was likewise outstanding. Throughout, she accompanied me. They attempted to shield me from the treatment I received from Core. I adore you! If you really want to serve consumers and make a difference, Core, instead of ignoring me and not trying to solve the problem, you should get your act together and do what it takes to make people happy. You may need to take a problem-solving training course and people interaction directions. YOU DID NOT represent Verizon in a positive way at all.

      Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve experienced on any level with any business. INCOMPETENT, INEFFICIENT and UNPRODUCTIVE. They can’t even set my phone - and seem helpless on the phone with their support team.

      I have been a customer of Verizon for five years. They have messed with the prices, sold me phones, guaranteed prices, and change them. It says the correct price and then a few days later it says it’s a lot more money. I've been yelled at and called a liar by their American staff. That’s how you treat five-year customers.

      I rarely write reviews but I feel compelled to do so. ** from Verizon store at 4111 Coors Blvd, ABQ, NM, greeted us at the door with a smile and was professional throughout the appointment. I was a bit clueless as to what the differences were with the iphone 17, 17 pro and the17 pro max. She explained the things in Layman's terms, and at no point did I feel pressured to buy the more expensive iphone. I decided on 17 pro max and I love the phone. ** called the next to to follow up. I would not hesitate to refer friends and family or anybody else in the market for a phone to **.

      Verizon is so crooked that they will not let you record them, but at the beginning of each call they say that they are recording you. They owe me $1200.00. I got tired of waiting for my credits and cancelled my service. Then they say I owed them for not finishing out my “contract”. I was a customer for 33 years and was never late on any payments. Verizon then reported me to the credit bureau to ruin my PERFECT credit score. No one gets great credit by not paying their bills. I refuse however to pay crooks. Then they get creditors to harass you that also will not let you record them.

      When I asked Verizon to listen to their own recorded calls to prove their lies they told me I needed a court order. I advise everyone to record their calls to prove how they lie. They will hang up on you when you tell them you are recording THEM. Why? Seems strange that they can record you, but will not let you record them. These crooked companies should be put out of business.
