    Verizon provides good service overall but I feel they could be more competitive with monthly charges and phone options. No longer can you get a free or low cost phone.

    There are no problems with connections and sound is always good. Very irritated with constant ads popping up telling me I have a virus or my phone is being damaged or running out of memory and insisting I need to download apps to fix the situation.

    Price is comparable, maybe a bit lower than other carriers. Service area has been good. Overall happy with the plans that Verizon provides. What would be much better is a cheaper base fee with no additional charges, but don't think that's in the cards.

    To make a long long 3 month story. I walked into a Verizon Store (Corporate) at EASTVIEW Mall Victor NY. Pleasant saleswoman checked my LG phone told me could not fix; offered many new phone options I refused until I thoroughly sought help to fix my LG which I loved. I told the saleswoman VERY LOUD and CLEAR I WOULD NOT SIGN ANY CONTRACTS for any phone. 2 hrs. later I decided to buy just a house phone. Easy, inexpensive, no contract, no problem.

    2 weeks later I went to a franchise Verizon Store in Newark NY. Paid cash for a new Samsung phone, no contracts. 10 days later screen went black. Took it back in 15 days after a weekend. No help, no warranty, black screen must have been MY FAULT. No help, no refund, no fix. After researching - many, many other Verizon customers SAME PROBLEM. Newark Verizon said it was out of their control they were only a franchise.

    After several calls to Verizon customer I was told VERIZON DOES NOT SELL PHONES VERIZON ONLY SELLS DATA. I am now receiving threatening letters from Verizon to pay them over $554.00. Turned into credit bureau by Verizon. I removed the Verizon house phone because Verizon turned off my service for that phone also because I did not pay the Verizon cell phone bill, early termination fee (remember I did not sign any contracts). VERIZON IS A SCAM. VERIZON USES PEOPLE. VERIZON MUST BE IN FINANCIAL TROUBLE to continue to harass "long time (25 years) a customer who just wanted her LG phone fixed by someone, anyone anywhere!

    We have had Verizon for over 10 years. Have not had any problems with service or availability where we live or when we travel. Recently we upgraded to unlimited data so we could drop our home Wi-Fi and cable TV. Using the Verizon Hot Spot was one of the smartest choices we've made. MY computer, wireless printer and all of our devices work perfectly and we are saving about $150.00 per month. Shortly after we switched we were upgraded automatically to an extra 15 GB of Hot Spot "for being long term customers" for free! That NEVER happened with either DirecTV or CenturyLink. We were never given any incentive to stay with those companies.

    After telling Verizon I was going on a Canadian cruise, they told me I would not be billed any extra for usage as I had unlimited in Canada. I only used it when we were onshore or close to cell towers as I was not hooked into the ship's WiFi. They charged an extra 100.00 because I used it on the ship (even though I told them upfront I would be in a cruise)! They need to give their employees better training or credit the accounts of people who were misinformed.

    I am more than an unsatisfied customer, I have been cheated by Verizon. I was promised to be bought out of my contract with Sprint and then was left holding the $400 bill! Dante and the management team at the Verizon store told me that I should be happy with my new phone and they would not honor the buyout deal. When I arrived at the store they said they would sell me the Note 8 for half the price and they would buyout my contract. They also talked me into the Note 8 because they said I had to buy a phone to do a trade in value... that was the only phone comparable to what I had. I spent 3 days deciding if I should downgrade to switch and was told this was by far the best deal on the market (I was told multiple times).

    I was told to hand in my phone at the store and submit my final receipt online. When I went to submit the receipt online they said my deal was not “stackable”! Which was ironic because that was the exact word used by Dante which made my deal so good! I went to the management team and they said “You got a great deal”!!! THEY HAD MY PHONE TO TRADE IN TO SPRINT!!! I asked to get my phone back and they said they could not get it back AND I would have to pay a restocking fee. I would have never paid $400 in the middle of my Sprint contract to switch over for a Note 8, I could have done that with Sprint!

    I have spent hours upon hours (Literally) on the phone trying to get them to honor the deal they promised! The Sales person was Dante’ **, Manager who claimed to “Help” but still could not honor it was Jason ** Email is ** and his manager who would not speak to me was Christopher ** email is **. Let me tell you, there is no level high enough to get them to honor promises and trust me. I asked in detail how this would all work and they promised me it was easy to do online. This was done at the A Wireless premium retailer at Lee Airpark in Edgewater MD but still unable to get anyone to hear my complaint that this was terrible how they got me to switch to them!

Yes, all of my memories are gone! Verizon doesn't seem to have a problem sending text messages when the bill is due but I don't have one message informing me of the new changes to plans.

    I opened a wireless Jetpack hotspot account with a marginal degree of difficulty over the phone, granted I purchased a SIM card from Amazon, so I won't fault them for that. Once I got set up, I ended up not needing the service, so I went to terminate it--hey I'll part with the steep $40 for the month even though I didn't use a single MB of data. That's my fault, however; I found that it was quite difficult to log in on their website. I needed a cell phone number tied to the account, which didn't exist, or an email tied to the account to even do a password or ID recovery, which I provided, but I was told was incorrect even though I never got Verizon spam on my email until I signed up. This provided enough friction to upset me to the point where I left it for another day--why is it so difficult to pay a bill?

    Eventually, this ordeal made its way to a collection agency for $140, for a service I didn't use a single minute of, and I asked them if they could provide me an account number after they confirmed my SSN, cell phone number, email, and address which were somehow correct on their end. They did so, I informed them that I don't like giving a credit card number over the phone, so if they could help me pay the outstanding balance online, I would gladly do so to get them out of my life. They gave me the web address and... more of the same hoops. Can't login, can't make a recovery, can't make a one-time payment using my phone or email, etc. I can't even find a number to get someone on the phone on their site.

    So, I finally find their web chat service, get a hold of an agent, and he tells me he is in sales, so he can't help me directly, but he gives me a phone number and another URL to follow. The URL goes to the same place: nowhere useful, and the phone number calls into the worst automated message system ever. It was impossible to pay the bill there of course, as I needed information I couldn't provide once again, so it took calling back 6 times down different chains of numbers to finally pretend I'm a new customer seeking service and get someone on the phone. I explain the situation to him: that I don't want service, I want to pay a balance, and I can't, so he transfers me to another woman.

    She assures me she can take care of the issue, I provide her the account number the collection agency gave me, but she needs a PIN number. I tell her I don't know it--I'm just trying to pay the balance so the account goes away, so she tells me she will transfer me to the financial & collections department who will just let me make a payment with the account number I gave her. Great. The next person asks for the same info. I reiterate the last conversation I had, and FINALLY he takes a payment over the phone--something I wanted to avoid, but at least it's done.

    I would rather pour bleach in my eyes and cut out my tongue before I ever use Verizon again. They are the worst service provider I could imagine ever dealing with. I just wanted to pay a bill, and that cost me hours of my life, $140 dollars, and all of my patience. I hope that there is a blackout that kills specifically all of the Verizon towers, their stock plummets, and they go bankrupt. I can't put into words the visceral hatred I feel for everything Verizon at this point. Let this review stand as testament: I was originally prevented from paying their bill because of an unnecessary amount of friction in the process online, and that same laziness and my genuinely unconcerned nature prevents me from leaving negative reviews about anyone or anything, but I created this account JUST to rant about Verizon, because they are that awful.

    Have had nothing but problems since moving to Verizon. Have almost no service in my home, told by Verizon that even though I live in the heart of a big city just outside Atlanta, that I'm between towers. They tried to make me pay $200 for one of their extenders since they have such poor coverage. I refused to pay $200 for a large black box to sit on my desk taking up space because they have such poor coverage in my area. They finally agreed to give me one acting as if they were doing me a huge favor! After 2 years I upgraded my Samsung Smart Phone to the latest version and the extender quit working and I was back at step 1 with calls being constantly dropped.

    After hours spent on the phone with Verizon, during which time they offered no help at all in solving the issue, on my own I found information online stating my phone will not work with their extender. Their own representatives do not have a clue what they are doing. It's pathetic when you know more than the company and it own technical department. The local Verizon that's a few miles from my home can't keep employees. Every time I go there, there are all new faces. They knew nothing about the new Note 8 when it came out. I actually knew a lot more about the phone than they did. So don't go into a Verizon expecting the employees to help you or explain the features on their latest phones.

    After purchasing an Android and a tablet a month ago in Sierra Vista, Arizona, I received notice of an overdue payment on my phone. At the time of my purchase, I told the representative that I needed to know the exact amount it was going to cost me and paid in full the amount I was quoted. When I brought the bill into the same office where I purchased it, I was told that I had to speak to the same person that sold me the phone. (I then asked her what if that person had quit, would I not get to have someone else help me?) She (a young woman named Esmerelda) said I had to make an appointment with the woman that had worked up the contract for me, that she couldn't help me. At that point, I asked who her supervisor was and when she pointed her out, I walked over to the supervisor to complain about the service I was getting.

    While talking to the supervisor, the friend that was with me reiterated to Esmerelda that it didn't make sense that she couldn't look my account up on the computer to see what had happened. THEN (while I was talking to her supervisor), and only then, did Esmerelda state that she COULD look it up but it would take a few minutes. I had been told that Verizon employees that they worked on commission and only got money when they sell product to a customer. Esmerelda is a very clear case of "no money in it for me, no service for the customer".

    If I could, I would rate Verizon a zero just because of Esmerelda. I told that supervisor that if I had received that kind of service at the time of my purchase, I would have walked out the door and gone to Sprint. So bear in mind, future customers, not only are you taking the chance of being "lied to" about the amount your purchase is going to involve, but you also risk getting service with someone like Esmerelda. They benefit by the product you purchase, not the fact that you're a customer with a problem.

    I chuckle when I see the T-Mobile commercials encouraging Verizon users to switch. I laugh because I switched from T-Mobile to Verizon. While I appreciated the low cost of T-Mobile, its reliability left a lot to be desired. When I needed my phone the most, I would constantly not have service with T-Mobile. I have not experienced this lack of coverage with Verizon, using the same iPhone 6+ I had with T-Mobile. When Verizon says they have the most reliable network, believe them.

    Became Verizon subscriber in 1999 for my family of 6, went into Beaverton store yesterday to ask about replacing my daughter's phone under insurance plan which covers all phones. Was told insurance plan removed Sept. 30th. Turns out Verizon removed insurance for whole family when they transitioned my son's phone to his own account Sept. 30th... They agreed there was no record of informing me or my authorization. We called my son and he confirmed no discussion about removing insurance from account.

    So Verizon accidentally removed insurance and refused to accept responsibility. Salesperson clearly wanted out of discussion and became visibly tired of it. When I mentioned how even a few years ago a Verizon employee would have "fixed this mistake" and asked "what specifically is my 18 years loyalty worth" Jules ** confirmed "nothing actually..."

    I purchased 4 wireless smartphones from Verizon on July 28, 2017. Then I received my first bill very soon after for approx. $442.00. I see the bill is for JUNE 28, 2017 TO JULY 28, 2017! I call and ask what the problem is and to have it fixed. I'm told "sure" and how sorry they are. The problem is, it never got changed. I call again and again and again. I argued with the person at customer service for over an hour the last time I called. I have explained again and again I WILL NOT PAY FOR A MONTH OF PHONE SERVICE PRIOR TO THE DATE I PURCHASED THE PHONES AND SIGNED ON WITH VERIZON! In addition I will not pay a full month's fees for a single/partial day of service!

    Next the billing person stated he would send me a paper copy of my bill and everything will make sense. Well it doesn't! What was changed on the bill is where it states billing period at the top of the bill. It now says JULY 18, TO JULY 18! No I'm not going to pay a full month's line fees, phone rental and data, text etc. charges for one day of having the phones especially when I got the phone late in the evening just before they closed!

    I've stated over and over. I purchased my phones on July 28, 2017 so looking at my billing history and the bills I've paid this is my BILLING HISTORY. June 28th to July 28th FIRST BILL (REMEMBER I PURCHASED THE PHONES ON JULY 28TH SO VERIZON'S "FIX" WAS TO CHANGE THE FIRST BILL to read billing period July 28th - July 28th); July 29th to August 28th SECOND BILL AND August 29th to September 28th for the THIRD BILL! This is what it should look like: July 28, to August 27, 2017 FIRST BILL; August 28 - September 27th SECOND BILL; and September 28th - October 27th THIRD BILL! All of which are paid.

    I'm not going to listen to Verizon say to me, "that's just on paper, it will work out." What they're saying is when it comes time to pay my bill or get rid of Verizon they are going to charge me for an additional month's service because I have NEVER been billed correctly. Bottom line is I want this fixed! I WANT THE DATES CORRECTED TO REFLECT WHEN I HAVE HAD MY PHONES AND TO SHOW THE CORRECT MONTHS I'VE PAID FOR. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas about how to get through to Verizon and make this fix the problem?

    Where do I even start!? I have been a customer for over 5 years and I have never had such terrible customer service with any business like I do Verizon!!! Their prices are outrageous first off, the absolute only reason I have their service is because of where I live. I recently went into a store with intent to upgrade from my Samsung to a Pixel. I was on the Edge plan and they made me pay my remaining balance on my Samsung before upgrading, I had no choice but to pay it because I was having such trouble with my Samsung phone and Samsung (company) themselves. I was just done being with Samsung and wanted something different. With knowing the name Google holds I got the Pixel and absolutely love the phone although buying it through Verizon, it was broke when I got it. Though I did not notice until days later, due to a busy schedule.

    It was not until my phone began to get worse and overheating and turning itself off that I had to make time to go into the Verizon store and tell them what was going on. When I walked into this store I was instantly turn off by the way their employees treated me upon walking in the door. It took 10 minutes for them to check me in and 45 minutes waiting for my turn in line. Now I get it, places get busy, but with only 4 people in front of me, no excuses. Finally it being my turn they proceeded to tell me that I pay monthly for the Verizon warranty and they can send me a "like new" device.

    I also understand that I should have went in and told them as soon as I seen a problem with my phone. But seeing as they sold me a broken phone and I have been a customer over 5 years you would think they would make an exception. No!! They did not. In fact they got rude with me and told me either they can order me a phone or nothing and I can leave!!! What??? So I kept my cool and calmly walked out with my broken phone. I called tech support as soon as I walked out. They tried to walk me a few steps in my phone to help it perform better and told me to go back into the store and ask for them to write in the comment that I was just in their store, for their records of proof.

    So I walked back in and lo and behold the manager met me at the door. I explained why I was coming back in and he put me in line, behind about 9 people, why he could not just write in the comments himself I don't know. So, still on the phone with tech support while waiting my turn, the tech support guy told me to just walk out and don't waste my time in there. So I did and sat in my truck on the phone with him. He then told me the only thing he can do is send me a "like new" device. Being fed up and completely over the lack of customer service, I called Google and they sent me a BRAND NEW NONBROKEN PHONE within 3 days.

    To sum this up, I do not recommend Verizon!!! Their customer service sucks!!! They know I was not supposed to buy my Samsung out before getting the Pixel and they did not reverse the payment. In fact they "can't find that payment" in their records. When it was only 8 months ago!!! Refused to give me any other options but to either have them order me a phone or leave!!! Like what color panties does that!!! I advise anyone reading this, if you want the Pixel go through Google!! Verizon won't help you. They will just rip you off!!!

When I called to make sure this contract did not renew after two years my account online was disable, customer service hung up on me during the call, and when I drove to the local Verizon store they suddenly did not have access to customers accounts.

There is nothing customer friendly about Verizon. I was told (just like when I purchased Sprint) that I would only be paying $50.00 instead of the $78.00 a month. We do not do contracts anymore.

The representative said that my phone was still under warranty and the insurance only cover 50% of the cost of a new phone a 6 or a 7. But, I had to release my phone to the store that very day. I agreed to it but then when the receipt printed, it deducted the full amount of the phone, It appeared that my new phone was covered 100%. I signed it. I still have that document which is the only document, I signed. It actually stated that the full amount of the phone was covered and the representative stated that, I will only be charged in the amount of 30$ for the 1st month and my bill wouldn't change. It will go back to normal as it has been nothing was changed, so I believe this was true based on the receipt.

    Got home phone worked fine, but later that evening around 11:00 p.m my service was cut off. I go back to the TCC because the phone wasn't receiving any service, she tried everything to get it to work from putting in her personal SIM card from her phone and numerous attempts with my personal E-mail password still no luck, The representative called Verizon pretending to be me. I was getting nervous because at this point it was unpleasant and unprofessional. My husband was with me and couldn't believe what was happening. He wanted to wait outside and told me to make sure that we were not going to be billed extra. The representative hung up with the Verizon with no luck, the rep had to obtain a new phone device out of the box and start from scratch, I asked her if I was responsible for a monthly charge for 24 months, she stated yes.

    I then told her, "I would like my phone back. This was not what you stated yesterday." She stated I could not have my old phone back. It is gone. With that said I need a phone, what am I going to do if my children or husband have a emergency and need to contact me? I said, "I need a phone." The rep fished up with the new phone handed it to me and said she is sorry for the misunderstanding.

    Now, I'm stuck in a contract that I never even signed. My name was forged by the representative and Verizon keeps saying they will fix the issue but keeps blowing it off. Tired of getting the runaround. This is now a month and a half of getting them to say we will fix the issue and you don't have to pay the price. Still the invoice does not reflect what they have continued to say to this very day. "We will not charge you for the phone and we apologize that this happened to you." I didn't even sign It.

    I feel bad for the reps having to lie to get a sale and print false receipts. Bait and switch is a scam, Verizon. I hope you will do the right thing by your loyal customer and remove the cost of the brand new device, I have called, my husband has called, yet only to be lied to. I am and will report this to the Better Business Bureau and take legal action if you do not remove the charge of a new device of my account. Terrible experience and if not resolved promptly I will take my business my family plan elsewhere.

There are no replacement parts. I was informed these tablets are "Throw Away Tablets." No parts available, the best Verizon could do is sell me another $400 for $200 (discount).

    Here I am 2 months later my New tablet went blank screen, they will ask you to send in the tablet to see if they can repair it (remember throw away tablet, there are no parts) before they will send replacement tablet 10 day turnaround if you're lucky.

    I've been with Verizon for over 10 years. I took advantage of the original offer of "unlimited" plan feature. Well over the years it appears Verizon bit off more than it can chew and has done every dirty trick to get me off this unlimited plan. Any change to my plan and I would lose this feature. So I couldn't upgrade my phone or do anything. So for years I paid full price for any new phones. Overtime however, they kept increasing my fees, so now I'm paying 49.99 for the data plan. I was supposed to be locked in the 29.99 plan for life but that was a lie.

    So here's my issue. With the price increase in the data plan I'm paying for the latest and greatest features and costs. This included the 4G hotspot feature. But they are still charging me a separate fee for 4G from my original contract. When I brought this issue of being "double charged" for the same feature, they stated it was true and wouldn't remove it without me moving to a new plan. The customer reps are horrible system bots that don't listen to the issue and keep spouting half-truths and running their lies in different ways. Because of my work and what I do, I need this unlimited plan usage. I just wish Verizon would stop screwing me over. I will be leaving them in a year. I just have to take it while I can. But for any new users thinking about joining Verizon, run. Run as far as you can. They are good liars.

    Verizon establishes policies to rationalize theft of millions from credits on customer’s accounts. As of June 2017, my account had accumulated a credit of $430, at which time I spoke with a representative in reference to a refund. The representative informed me that Verizon does not give refunds. I then asked if I could use my credit to make a purchase from the Verizon online store. He checked with the sales department and was told Verizon does not allow credits to be used for purchases. The solution the representative and the sales department offered was for me to leave the credit on my account and allow it to be used up by my monthly charges. They determined the monthly charges would zero out my credit balance by March of 2018, at which time I was to resume making monthly payments.

    As of September 8, 2017, my remaining credit balance, after deduction of monthly charges through that date, was reduced to $350.02. On October 8, 2017, with the stated and documented credit balance on my account, my service was disconnected for non-payment. No longer having phone service, I started an online chat with a Verizon representative, a copy of which I have retained. After a very lengthy chat, the representative was able to get Verizon to agree to issue me an account credit of $150, but they would not refund the remaining $200 of my credit. She also informed me that: (copied from chat transcript) “In this case if you keep making monthly payments the balance will never be used, however you don't need to make monthly payment if you would like to use your balance.”

    If, as this representative stated, I would not have to make monthly payments until my credit balance is used up, why did Verizon disconnect my service and confiscate my $350.02 credit? Given the size of Verizon’s organization, and the millions of customers they have, the possibility of this happening only to me is unrealistic.

Last time Verizon jacked up our bill to $266.50. Refuses to adjust it. I contacted the company 6 times about this issue. Also bill shows $180 past due, which is not true. Last bill of $178.20 was paid in full on 09.22.2017. Verizon states, that all charges are valid and resulted from them playing with my due date on a billing cycle.

Then, early this year, ownership of the Verizon account was officially transferred through Verizon from myself to my daughter. My daughter was well into adulthood at the time. Imagine my surprise when Verizon reported negative information on me to a credit agency. Since the account was transferred to my daughter, I had not received a bill, a late notice, or a collection notice from Verizon.

    Imagine my greater surprise when Verizon told the credit agency that the negative report was accurate. When I owned the account, I sometimes made payments from a bank account I had linked to it, but I removed that payment method before the account was transferred. I don't even know the credentials of the account to be able to communicate with Verizon about it. I wrote to Verizon and if you can believe it, a Verizon executive called me and spent an hour commiserating with me because he had once been reported to a collection agency for a student loan.

She then redirected me to the fraud unit and spoke with Sharon approximately around 1:02 pm. I explained everything to her in detailed. She was told I wasn't living in Florida and haven't lived there in some years. She told me an account was open in my name and it was tied to my name so therefore it's my account and it's not a fraud issue and the phones were sent the address provided which is attached to my name and they received the information from Equifax Credit Bureau.

    I responded to her that it wasn't my account and I did not open any account with them. I asked her for all the information on the account so that I can make a police report and have the person to be arrested. She told even if I do a police report, it still won't make a fraud case, she can't give me the information because I said, "It's not my account" but if I say it is then, she can provide me with all the information. That respond to me was very rude, sarcastic, demeanor and playing with my intelligence. I asked her where did this account was setup and she told me that it was done over the phone.

I always had phone service even in the woods and swamp where I hunted so I expected to pay a higher price for the service but it just didn't compensate for the negligence in the system. Overall I give Verizon a very poor review.

    False advertising claiming Unlimited data. Got everyone to sign up when the competition offered unlimited, then a couple months later changed it to up to what I thought was 25gb unlimited then they slow you down like an old dial-up internet access after you reach 25gb, which is like within a week. Then they sent me a message saying they've upped my Unlimited to 25gb, which means it was something less than they said it was going to be... WTF? Where do I sign up for the class-action lawsuit to get my money back? Liars, total **, totally deceptive. Their internet connection is worthless.

    Upon purchasing a new phone a Verizon Sales Rep at the Carlsbad store on Marron Road, said that he would give us a hotspot device at no extra charge. I told him that I wanted a plan similar to the one that I currently had which was $59.00 a monthly. He assured me that by adding the hotspot I wouldn't be charged a monthly fee. However when I received my bill summary a few days later my bill had increased to $109. I had not only been charged a monthly fee but also a charge for the device, a jetpack line access fee, and taxes. I called Verizon and told them about my problem and they credited my account and told me that my plan would be changed back to the original plan. However, at the end of the month my bill was even higher, $170 and $109 was due at that time.

    I made several phone calls and was put on hold 3 times approximately 20 minutes each time only to be disconnected. The next day I called again and I explained my problem only to be told that there was nothing that could be done other than pay off the jetpack line agreement which was $175 because according to their agreement I was 14 days over the return policy even though I had called 4 days after the policy and requested to be changed back to the original plan. But still they insisted that the only way to stop the jetpack line charges would be to terminate the plan at a charge $175.

    I went back to the store and offered to return the hotspot (which hadn't even been opened) but the sales solutions supervisor, said that there was nothing he could do. He was very short with me and would not believe me when I told him that the Sales Rep had misinformed me and that I had a witness who could verify the conversation that took place. So here I am with a device that I didn't need, really didn't want but accepted because I was told it was free and a $175 charge to terminate a contract for something I thought was free. Consumer beware. Verizon is a very dishonest company!!!

Yep, two lines for $50 each per month, included unlimited calling and texting, PLUS a generous 1GB data each line. My friends kept telling me what fabulous deals they were getting with Verizon, but every time I called in they made sure we had the absolute best plan we could get. Finally did change to T-Mobile, and I must say, the service is much better and every service is better than Verizon!!! Well, called Verizon to tell them we changed over and wanted our final bill... they got snotty and told us that since we had just paid our bill for the next month, we were stuck in the plan till it expired. No refund for the money we paid, just had to let it run till it expired. I would now never ever consider going back to Verizon for any reason.

    It's a shame they don't have a 1/100 of a star because they deserve it. I use a Jetpack for internet. They sell you 15 gigs of 4G and then take a chance each month on unlimited. I have to update the Jetpack monthly and yesterday they told me it took 2 Gig to update it. But today they said it now takes 5 Gigs an upgrade. Funny they can't make up their minds and tell the truth. But to use 1/3 of the 15 Gigs monthly to keep the device updated is ridiculous and a total theft of service.

    They have the worst service coverage areas in the nation. They tell you you are on a 4G network and it works perfectly but after you sign up you have the technical support that your location is between 3 towers and you are just where they overlap. Do not use their services without being fully aware. They are clueless on what the word truth means. What's even worse is they charged 2 Gigs at 3 AM and the computer was off along with the Jetpack and I was 245 miles away at a hotel checking out of my room at the same time.

    Been having issues with this company for years. Terrible customer service, foreign language agents that attempt to talk you into add-on contracts but don't properly explain the details. A contract was signed electronically and the complexity of the details weren't verified until after the contract was signed and was relayed by a different agent whom denied the details of the original contract. Multiple mistakes have been made in the paperwork over the years. Devices have become extremely hot. These devices were sent back to Samsung for repairs. Verizon had at those times agreed to freeze the account until they received their loaner device after we received our repaired devices. On all instances of the aforementioned issues my account was charged for these devices. Me and my wife were then harassed by Verizon multiple times due to them not doing their part and not freezing the accounts.

    Customer Service/Customer Care has been rude and disrespectful to us multiple times. They have hung up on us multiple times. They have repeatedly given us false information which has forced us to continue to re-call them several months in a row. Everytime we get our account straight we find out that the previous mentioned amounts owed/agreements have changed. We were told today that our service contract was up last December 2016 but last December when we were threatening to leave Verizon they were threatening to charge us early terminations fees. We were just told that our contract was up in December however. Ninety percent of the time we talk to them they are rude and we're now being told that it's because we were behind on our bills.

    Like I previously mentioned we were behind on our bills because they didn't carry through on their agreement which was to freeze the account until our repaired phones were sent back to us so that we had the label and box to resend Verizon's loaner phones back. Everytime we talk to them they treat us inhumanely as if it was our fault that they never go through with multiple agreements we've had set up with them. My wife is disabled and they talk over her repeatedly, interrupt her and even accuse her of trying to obtain free phone service. She has been a customer of theirs for over six years. I have been a customer for over two years. We don't owe them anything at the time and their excuse for being rude this entire time (10 months on their end) is that we were behind on our bills. They don't however take responsibility for why we were behind on our bills and they blame us. In reality we've been dealing with the harassment for over two years.

    We've been charged multiple times for services we didn't receive. My phone just came back from the factory recently for the second time and the problem persists. My phone constantly gets hot and typically won't work due to it. Verizon had refused to replace it during the entirety of the contract. There are no scratches or physical damage on this phone and it's never been dropped or exposed to anything harmful. There was zero physical damage on the phone the last time it was sent to Samsung.

    Verizon has been notified multiple times since we signed the contract on our Galaxy S7 Edges that our phones continue to get hot but they've refused to do anything about it, even when we were paying insurance on both devices for months. Just a completely horrible experience. We spend hours on the phone with them every month. This has been ongoing for two and half years. We were told today several different bill amounts that are owed but we are up to date. We're not behind on our bills but are still be harassed. When we were behind on our bills it was Verizon's fault.

    My husband and I left T-Mobile to go back to Verizon. They bought two of our phones and traded our iPhone 6 for an iPhone 7. We were told the iPhone 7 would be free. We would pay for it for 3 months then they would reimburse us the 3 months of the money and then it would be free. This was in February. We agreed handed them our iPhone 6. No problem. After 4 months I called Verizon to find out why it was not removed. They told me that we weren't qualified for the plan because we were not on unlimited. I said I had never been on unlimited and that the offer was given knowing this because I was signing up for a plan that day. After a week I was called back and told the plan was agreed to and they would fix it. 2 phone bills later it still was not fixed.

    I went up to Verizon and argued again. I was told they would get back to me. She called me and left a voicemail which I still have saying they would fix it and take care of the phone. Again 1 month later I go back because I'm till paying on this phone. The guy told me I didn't qualify for this program. I said, "Well I want my iPhone 6 back because we only had that phone for 3 months from T-Mobile." I paid it off the same day they offered to give me the iPhone 7 in exchange for it. The guy said well there's nothing he could do. It had went to the nas team? And they had denied it. I said, "Well who can I talk to." He said only person who can okay this is the CEO! So I said you can take my phone without giving me money for it? Especially since it was never bought from you?

    I could have sold the phone. I would never have just given it to them. So I tried one more time and called Verizon. The guy listened to me and agreed. He put it in again through someone and told me he would call me back in a week. 2 weeks later and nothing. I don't know who to talk to and I'm frustrated. Give me back my iPhone 6 or give me the money I deserve! How is this even fair? How can they take a phone I paid 489 to pay off so we can do the iPhone 7 deal? How can they legally do this? Does this not break our agreement? I'm so mad I wanna stop using them but then they will throw this on my credit report! I have emails and voicemail showing where they had previously given this to us and now say it can't happen. Who do I call?

I still couldn't believe what I heard so I asked him to send me a text so that I have proof of this in writing and he did.

    So I went to the local corporate store and showed the store manager the text message and he said there is no way he is honoring that for us.

    I purchased a Gizmo tablet on sale for 99$ on 4/9/17. At the same time I purchased 2 phones and added 2 additional phones to the unlimited plan. I was told that the tablet was on sale and that there would be no charge to remove the tablet if it broke or decided I didn't want it on the plan. I have a handwritten note and receipt showing the tablet was 99$ on sale. I was never told I had to add the tablet to the contract for 2 years or pay the full amount. The sales rep didn't write down any of that info and said since I paid for it in full I only had to pay a line fee of 10.00 a month. I was worried about the tablet getting broken and reassured if it was broken I could remove it from the account without penalty. I have taken the tablet to Verizon multiple times because it keeps freezing and I was told that Verizon was having issues with the tablets and taught how to reset it.

    Well after it froze for the 15th time my 3 year old dropped it and now it is completely broken. I went online to suspend service until we got paid to see if we were going to replace the tablet. Verizon wants to charge me $10.00 a month to suspend tablet that doesn't work so I called just to have it removed from the account and that's when I was told I had to pay an additional 175.00 to remove the tablet. I have purchased Gizmo watches which were added to my plan and I was able to remove them without charge because I paid for them upfront.

    Customer service just keeps referring me to documents that were created days after I purchased the tablet without signatures. I have provided receipts and handwritten notes showing that I purchased the tablet for 99 upfront and told there is nothing anyone can do. All I want is the broken tablet (which didn't last 7 months) removed from my account since I already paid for it. What's the point having a sales rep write everything down and pay what's agreed if Verizon can just create unsigned documents the day after? Even your customer service won't accept the documents I have saying, "we only go by what's in the system." What you have in the system is false and Verizon should honor what the sales reps write down.

    I have been with Verizon for a year now and the service is great. Their customer service at the stores where I live are not so great. When I purchased both of my phones in the store last September I was told that I could upgrade when I paid 50% of the installments. I called customer service to confirm this about 2 months ago and the lady who helped me was very nice. She answered all of my questions and advised that after I paid the next bill I would be at 50% so I could upgrade to the iPhone 7 plus I wanted at the time. Well now I'm at 50% so I chat with them and ask what my options are as far as upgrading and trading my current phone in. The agent advises me that I cannot upgrade until I pay 100% of my phone off. I told him what I was told in the store and he didn't seem to care.

    After that I called customer service and the rep told me that it wasn't showing I was at 50% on her end that my My Verizon app was apparently wrong and I had to pay 2 more installments to reach 50% but I couldn't upgrade to the newest phone that it had to be the iPhone 7 because if I wanted the 8 then I would have to pay 100% of my phone off. I told her what I was told in the store so she advised I go back to the store where I got the phone and ask them. I went to the store after I hung up with her and the lady said nope, you have to pay 100% in order to upgrade. I advised what happened and told her the name of the rep who sold me the phone in the first place a year ago and she cared more about playing on her phone than she did helping me.

    I ended up leaving the store and called customer service back and the rep that helped me was very nice. She explained what the agreement said and told me that apparently the rep in the store must have selected the wrong agreement. She talked with her supervisor and they gave me a $100 credit towards my bill and are going to waive the activation fees on both lines when I do decide to upgrade if I want to keep Verizon. I am disappointed in the customer service at the store in Prattville, AL. I am considering switching to another company after this next year is up.

I took it to a Verizon store and was told "We don't carry batteries, call Customer Service." Spent 40 minutes on the phone and was told they would 'overnight' me a new phone & battery. 4 days later the phone arrived - with no battery. Another call and was told "Oh, we never send batteries." When I responded that I did not need a new phone, just a new battery, I was told that a battery is considered an accessory, and told to "call LG - they will replace it free."

    When I called LG they said no, I'd need to order one from Walmart or Amazon. My Big Question is: why didn't the person at the Verizon store just tell me all this in the first place??? Or, if she didn't know, why didn't the people in Customer Service just tell me all this, instead of sending a new phone with no battery that took 4 days to arrive and left me in the same mess?

It just happens that Verizon is an expert at it.

    I went with Sprint for unlimited data and saving money on monthly payment, but phone line is not as good vs. Verizon, but I would not recommend anyone go with Verizon because you will get bad customer service and pay a premium for a little better network and you will pay for charges you never were told. The network will have to be a decision we all have to make based on where we live.

They never do when it comes to you having a problem but when it comes to them wanting money or needing something, they got the conversation recorded right there. I'm just having issues with him now I paid off my payment off. My phone's my tablet now they're telling me I still owe for my tablet and I told them that the sales lady said I paid everything off and they said nope. And I said "See what I mean by lack of communication?" So I'm going to Better Business Bureau with them because I'm sick of the runaround and I asked if that's how they make their money off everybody by not knowing what's going on in lack of communication. Never go back to him again.

    Verizon cell phone service is great. I have never had a dropped call yet. Their specials on phones also fits our finances. The only thing I would like is for them to give us a discount on 2 person lines as they do for 4.

    Verizon is ok but way too expensive for what you get. We got roped into one of there data plans and it has been horrible. Bad part is now it will cost me more to change plans to their new plan. Seems like there is always a new way to force me to spend more. The service is ok but nothing great. The sneaky way they add charges to my bill and force me into plan changes is terrible. As soon as our contract is up we plan on changing providers. Will it be better maybe but cheaper I hope. My phone bill is over half of my mortgage and that's not right.

    Verizon artificially makes it difficult to cancel home wireless service, even if you are trying to do normal things, like move to an area where they are not present. Only some of their stores take the equipment (which they charge a ridiculous amount to rent) and they are only take cancellations during business hours on weekdays - when most normal persons are working. They also do not let you cancel online and the phone menus are poorly structured.

    The only plausible reason for this is to make it as hard as possible to conduct a very normal transaction that (when moving) one wants to accomplish as efficiently as possible. This is extremely manipulative and not respectful of customers. Other businesses have easily adapted to 24 hour service and automated support be it banking, Amazon, or streaming. I dread moving to an area where Verizon is the only possible provider and I have to interact with this company again.

    Verizon has great coverage, but they know it and OVERCHARGE you for it. Plus, their plans are NOT the most flexible and instead of trying to assist you in saving money they seem to delight in finding ways for you to spend MORE money.

    I love the service. Wouldn't go anywhere else but can't stand the new high speed internet. 3gb goes in one day when my son watches YouTube videos. I wish we could go back to regular internet.
