They charge me after I close the account. So, I found out it 6 months later I called customer service, they said they can’t do anything. I feel bad. I lost more than $300. Bad bad bad worst worst carrier.

Verizon is currently running a very misleading ad offering the IPhone 15 as an upgrade. It sounds great but when you call it is conveniently revealed that you don’t qualify. Very disappointing after being a customer for many years. This is how a Company loses loyal customers.

Just realized that this company has been stealing from me. They raised the rates without notifying me or asking if I agreed. I paid $179 per month + line for an iPad. It turns out that they were charging me $295??? This is a theft from customers. We are going to Tmobile who offered me a better super $100 per month. Don’t agree to Verizon.

I just traded in my old device on June 11, 2024, under Verizon's trade-in program. According to their website, you could trade any phone for the same brand and receive a credit of $799.99 regardless of condition. I went through the process online and noted my then-current phone had a cracked screen, I completed the process and it said I would get the monthly credit over 36 months to cover the new phone's cost. I submitted my order and thought all was good. WRONG! After setting up the new device I took my old device to a local Verizon main store to return. Per the instructions, the phone was reset to factory conditions and I restarted to check. When I dropped it off at the Verizon store they gave me a credit of $200 and the form says that the phone was in "a condition other than noted", and that the "credit" had been adjusted. GOOD BAIT AND SWITCH VERIZON!
Spent over an hour on the phone with two of their reps, which they just happened to call about adding another line, and they and their supervisor can't seem to figure out why I am only getting the $200 credit rather than the $799.99 as is the current promotional deal. Now, I am stuck waiting to see how bad my next month's bill is going to be and I am pretty sure this will not be fixed. Severely disappointed in Verizon. Been with them for almost 17 years and I feel this relationship has run its course.

I had Verizon Wireless for 22 years. I paid extra money because I believed it was better service. My bill was $120 per month for one line it got so unaffordable to use Verizon I switch carriers. When I switched carriers I paid to get my number transferred over. Now I keep getting repetitious calls emails and threats that I owe $25. Everybody knows that they would not release my number without being paid in full so they’re not going to get $25 more from me taking consideration that they’re not the only company out there. Other companies are using the same towers so don’t be fooled because of higher prices try other carriers for better deals, and equally as well of cellular service.

Verizon offers a 55 and older plan but only to certain individuals. That is crap. I have been a customer for over 20 years. Not sure this company is focused. I have called and went to a corporate store and there is nothing anyone can do to put me in this plan which could save me lots of money especially trying to live on a fixed income and everything around you is way too high.

Verizon reps at the store in Citrus Heights, CA assured me and my wife that our bill would be $180 a month. After MONTHS of paying more than I should have had to, their EXECUTIVE customer care team told me that it actually doesn't matter what their sales reps say. If you don't get it in a contract, they'll keep raising your bill to take you for all you're worth. Don't waste your time or your money on these dishonest, thieving con artists.

Customer is always right!! They don't tell you the fine print the "We are bending you over and bleeding you dry!" The best wireless carrier cannot protect your interest. They tell you one thing and then they charge you high prices! I wish all wireless phone companies can all have the same prices.

If I can give less than 1 star, I will do. I transferred my home internet from Cox to Verizon after four years with no problems at all during the four years but my contract was expired and the price gets up. Unfortunately it was a horrible decision to have Verizon, they offered fake offers and have very bad customer service though I spoke to the customer service manager. She is so rude.

My whole family has Verizon phones. I recently had an issue with my phone which I purchased through Verizon, in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. I had to have it substituted with a new one since it wasn’t charging anymore. This was about 8 months from my initial purchase. They told me to send the phone back to them within 5 days of the agreement, which I did using the UPS store nearby. It was all done and I kept my receipt.
After about two weeks, I received a message saying to send the phone, and that I would be charged $ 500 if I failed to send it. I called Verizon, was on the phone for about 45 minutes, let them know about the problem. And they said they were waiting. A week later, I received another similar text, so I called them back. I was on the phone for another 40 minutes or so. They told me they received an empty package…?!? I told them my husband had sent it (without a doubt) and we still had the receipt, and that if UPS loses it or someone else at the factory’s reception facility, it shouldn’t be on us. They said they would investigate further and get back to me.
After about 4 weeks I was debited $900 dollars. I called Verizon again and they looked into my case history and noticed nothing was done about it. They told me to wait another 5 days to a week and they would get back to me. Verizon’s procedure and integrity is completely at fault. I find I have to pay $900 for their inefficiency and dishonesty. What I noticed about this company is that if you’re buying, everyone runs after you, if you have an issue, no one cares. How can companies and their employees be so careless..? I am obviously closing my family account with them and will never purchase Verizon again.

We had sketchy service with ATT and decided to try Verizon, same problems, dropped calls, or no calls and people you could hardly hear, unless you tilted your head a certain way. Tech ran same tests. Resetting things and after an hour and a half I gave up on second call. They do not want to give out extenders.

5-7 spam calls per day, all from Verizon numbers which means they sold my information to cold call lists.. No bars of service in my house, Verizon is supposed to be best coverage. The pixel8a is supposed have one of the best cameras and it's mediocre. My bill is twice as much as I was told it would be. The 10 credit is only if you allow them access to ALL your private banking business in your account or get a cc thru them.

I had an appointment today at the Bend OR location, but they refused to help me because I am not the primary Admin on our family account. Even though I had my cell and my pass code with me, and I'm the one who pays the Verizon bill, They would not help. They also refused to speak with the primary account holder when I tried to call them and hand the phone to the Verizon Agent. That was the most frustrating part. It was ridiculous. The worst customer service I have ever experienced. All I wanted to do was ask if my cell service plan will work on my trip to Europe next week. I ended up having to leave. They would not answer any questions about the Verizon service I pay for, or the Galaxy I bought from them. On top of all that, there was only 1 black cell phone case left, and it was on display, and they would not sell me the display case because of their "Policy". Time to switch carriers!

Just started a new plan with Verizon a few months ago. We signed up for 2 lines and got 2 new phones that were advertised as "free with new plan." The plans were also a promotional rate that would be discounted $10 each per month when enrolled in autopay. So far, Verizon has not honored the $10 discount for being enrolled in autopay. Customer service (after hours on the phone) determined that we are not enrolled in autopay with an appropriate bank account directly contradicting what their website says. The auto pay enrollment page specifically says that we are appropriately enrolled in a valid manner to apply the discount.
Similarly, the "free" phones have only been half free. They honored one phone but continue to apply the financed payment for one of our phones despite customer service agreeing that it should be free. On the billing side, we also have been surprised by multiple surcharges that appear on every bill adding up to about an additional $10 per month. They do not explain what they are for, just that they are extra charges. We have also been charge one time fees 3 months in a row adding up to about $200, ensuring that if the experience continues to suck that we are invested and less likely to leave.
To put the icing on the cake, customer service is a joke. I have tried to contact customer service via instant message on the website and it straight up just doesn't work. There is also an option to write a message and be called back. This takes you to a 404 webpage does not exist. Finally trying to call the 800 number will yield you going through several robots that will not give you to a real person unless you answer all of their questions perfectly. They will hang up on you if you ask for a customer service representative too many times.
Once you finally get someone on the phone they usually try to be helpful, but it seems their hands are tied when it comes to applying billing changes and they can do nothing but promise it will be fixed in the next bill. Obviously, it is not fixed and I'll have to call again and deal with it which will take no less than 2 hours. I cannot recommend Verizon as a mobile service provider.

I’ve been with Verizon for years and they have really changed for the worse! They set me up with what they called a “contract” with a set monthly amount. Now although I’m locked in a 2yr contract the monthly amount keeps slowly going up without any change in service. It’s legal robbery. When contract is over I’m saying good bye to Verizon and never looking back!

They charged me for all sorts of fees and didn’t even have the courtesy of helping me reverse them having suffered a financial hardship, not to mention the fact they helped a fraudster in a SIM card swap fraud case that they didn’t acknowledge to have been their fault, even though it was. I will no longer be a part of this fraudulent organization (Verizon) with their overpriced subpar services.

In March 2023, I visited the Verizon store in Hazle Township to upgrade my Samsung S10e to an S23. I was informed that I could receive an $800 credit for my trade-in. Upon receiving my first bill, it was apparent that the promotional credit was miscalculated, reflecting a $400 credit dispersed monthly, rather than the agreed-upon $800. I immediately contacted the store, who directed me to Verizon Wireless corporate. After multiple attempts to resolve the issue, both parties redirected me back and forth. Eventually, a store representative submitted a promotional correction form, but no action was taken.
Despite monthly follow-up calls, no resolution was reached until January 2024, when I was informed that I needed to upgrade to a higher-priced plan to receive the full credit, a stipulation not disclosed during the initial transaction. Reluctantly agreeing, I have yet to receive the promised credit as of June 2024, 15 months after the original purchase. I am currently being billed the full amount for the phone, not even receiving the $400 credit now, in addition to the higher plan costs. Throughout this ordeal, I have experienced extensive wait times, dropped calls, and a lack of follow-through from Verizon representatives. This ongoing issue, coupled with documented records of numerous calls over 15 months, has led me to believe that Verizon's promotional practices are deceptive and their customer service is severely lacking.

I was perfectly content with Xfinity and a Verizon rep came up to our house to see if he could get us a better deal. He said he could lower our bill by 50$ a month and they would charge us 200$ a month for the same service. I agreed to it as long as the price would not increase ever. So not even 2 months later, the bill goes up to the same as xfinity. I wouldn't have switched if it didn't save me any money. So the 200$ deal now gets me 5 total channels and it would be 250 for every channel. Waste of time with everything, lied to me, and isn't close to the same as xfinity. Channels are not grouped together and just hard to navigate, the voice recognition is terrible, it didn't include rewinding live tv and the list goes on. 1/10.

There are no words for the cell phone industry in general re how horrible their services are - I had AT&T for far too long and left them because their service was atrocious and went to Verizon hoping it would be better but it isn’t!! Have had issues on and off but the past 25 hrs nothing working on the phone so finally made it to the Tech Support Dept and was told he had to connect to phone and will be disconnecting for 30 secs and will contact me back. So far an hour and have no use of my phone!! Can’t call anyone because I can’t call out any more. Can’t even do anything on the Verizon app to get some answers!!! The companies don’t care except when their payments for your bills don’t arrive on set date and time and then all of a sudden you get every person to contact you back!! Horrible service. Horrible!!

I spent over an hour on hold because there is an outage in my area not that I could have ever found that out from their site because I could never connect to where the outages were. I thought that Sprint was awful and I was so delighted with the customer service of Verizon when I switched over but they have completely and utterly decimated anything that looks like compassionate helpful customer service. I honestly am so disappointed in what happened to such a great company to make it so completely useless to the customers that they serve

I have been a Verizon cell phone customer for at least 18 years. The website and call experience to customer service is dismal. You cannot log in to Verizon online (computer) without getting a text on your phone and additional steps to do anything. I live in a rural area and Verizon cell service is poor. I can spend 10 to 15 minutes just to connect. Then you listen to an AI robot recording tell you things you do not want to know for another 5 minutes.
Customer service is like pulling teeth. Other bad memories - it took 3 months to cancel a Verizon home phone for a house we sold and 4 contacts; their store employee told one daughter it would be cheaper to have her own plan - was actually $50 a month higher; they added a phone for another pre-teen daughter that enabled her to run up over $400 in charges in one month (Verizon: oh, did you want that ability disabled?); and when I paid them off and cancelled the phone of my deceased sister they still send me ads for her after 5 years.

I had been a Verizon customer for over 22 years. I left them earlier this month due to the high costs of my bill, the telephone AI assistant, and the customer service that has gone downhill. Since then, I have been trying to get my final bill. I get notices of being delinquent but can't get the final bill to give to my new carrier who will be paying off the phones. I have spent close to 2 hours trying to get someone to assist me. I cannot log into myverizon to get it because I shut the phones off. Therefore, you cannot log in with your number or your username. I shouldn't have to go through so much to get a final bill. This is beyond frustrating.

I would give them a 0. Their service is awful, It does not work for me or anyone in my family at different locations. They put me in a 3-year contract, took my phones as a trade-in, and then decided to raise my bill by $40 per month after being in the contract for 3 months. So now I have no choice but to lose hundreds of dollars if I stay or leave. How is this legal?

I would give them zero stars if I could. The fact that I’ve had of service with them for almost 2 years now and they haven’t even offered me to get an upgrade on my phone not to mention their cell phone coverage and service is the worst on the face of this planet. I lived with this for over a year and a half and yes, I will say the phone bill is cheaper than other places, but I guess you get what you pay for. If you want cheap phones you have to have cheap service too, and that’s what Verizon is. A cheap service. I don’t recommend them to anyone. I wish they would close down and go out of business. The Internet is OK and the only reason why I’m saying is OK is because they sent us an extender finally after complaining for over a year. So I give them zero stars. They are the worst phone service provider on the face of this planet. I don’t recommend them to anyone. If you’re thinking about switching please do yourself a favor and don’t switch to Verizon.

The worst provider. High prices for nothing. They have poor internet connection and if you are not satisfied with it, you should pay for their service anyway. I decided to try this provider and payment for 1 line should be 130 USD per month. Surely I expected good service for this price. After 1 week trial I found better provider for 20 USD! But Verizon requested to pay 80 USD for 1 week trial! It's terrible. Also they send threatened mails that if you not pay the sum they will send claims to credit agencies!

First of all Verizon's 5G network does not work after their pandemic. It is impossible to get any service. I have one bar all the time The phone constantly switches over to my home Wi-Fi and I'm making calls and using my own Wi-Fi while paying Verizon over $130 a month. I'm absolutely speechless why would I fork over that kind of money to use my own Wi-Fi to make phone calls and use my own data and still pay them. It makes absolutely no sense. Verizon is fully aware of the problem and offered me $4 off my bill. When I complained about that they changed it to $10. I told them, "This is absolutely ridiculous. You're not giving me any money off. You're actually giving me my money back that you are stealing from me every month." Customer service is such a joke. I guess they have a scripted response to probably over a million people calling with the same problem.
It's sad because Verizon used to be the best. Now I'm considering mint mobile because I am sure that their service could not be any worse than Verizon and I would have over $110 dollars extra per month. The best part is when they want me to serve as a technical team member and do hours of troubleshooting taking away from my life minutes for a network that they know does not work. It is beyond funny. And for a billion dollar company they won't even give you a copy of the chat if you choose to chat with a rep online The reason they do not do this is because all the rep does is lie to you the whole time and when you ask for a transcript of the chat they tell you that they're unable to do that and you can screenshot the conversation but their app doesn't allow screenshots because they don't want any proof of what their agents said.
I just wonder how such a once great company turns into a total scam. They need new leadership and I need a new cell phone provider as soon as my contract is over. I'm going to go over to mobile. I'm honestly telling you their service could not be any worse than what I'm getting now. I'm making my calls over my own home Wi-Fi and also using my own home Wi-Fi data. So my advice to anyone reading this review would be to try mint Mobile or anybody except for Verizon. Make them your last resort like if you couldn't get cell service or a cell plan anywhere in the universe!

Top fifteen ways for Verizon lose a customer of over 20 years…
15. Have customer service agents give the wrong information, multiple times.
14. Do not take ownership of the problem and tell the customer the problem is his/her fault.
13. Have multiple people lie to the customer.
12. Tell the customer they are not allowed to know the cause of a fraud hold being placed on the account.
11. Give the customer someone they cannot understand and people who have to be given access to the account because they are subcontractors and not actually with Verizon.
10. Invalidate the customer’s frustration by telling them that he or her should not get upset and mock their requests by stating that we all want things, especially do this after 5 days of an ongoing problem and more than 4 hours of time on the phone.
9. Talk nonstop to the customer and even let them know how big Verizon is (over 70 departments) along with a lot of other personal information.
8. Illustrate that a tech company cannot solve a tech problem, even as simple as allowing the customer to resign a contract the computer lost and create a ticket that will take an additional 48 hours to solve to make sure it is over 7 days of not having the order processed.
7. Try to sell them other services and even a credit card while Verizon is not solving the problem or processing the order.
6. Refuse to escalate the problem to the supervisor when the customer knows that the supervisor has already had to try to address the problem, even better message the supervisor and relay the information back and forth to the customer, instead, to make the call longer while mentioning you cannot access the buttons to fix the problem.
5. Make the customer repeat the situation repeatedly instead of reading the notes.
4. Make sure to keep the customer on the call an hour each time they call, or worse two hours, even better, add toxic interactions to the call to make sure the customer is put in his/her place, even better make sure to hire people overseas that really dislike **.
3. Make the customer call more than once to solve the problem, or even better, make them call five times and still make sure to not solve the problem or have the chat interactions always make the customer call instead of actually trying to fix a problem through the chat to avoid a phone call.
2. Do not send the necessary email that alerts the customer of an order problem.
1. Cancel the customer's order to try to solve the problem and try to put in a new order (oops the same problem appeared again), even better do this three times and make them clear fraud each time as well and never tell them why it triggered fraud in the first place, definitely do not alert them by email or through the app that another hold has been placed.
8 hours, 7 phone calls, 6 days, 5 Verizon store visits, 4 orders and cancellations, only 3 nice customer service representatives, 2 trade-in cancellations and upgrade attempts, 1 delivery only and a hot mess of a company later with no resolution….So, we need to switch companies. It is not worth your time and aggravation.

10 years ago I'd say Verizon was the best... But after dealing with them over the past few weeks after we mistakenly switched from T-Mobile... VERIZON IS THE WORST when it comes to providing a home internet service... How can T-Mobile's tower be BETTER at giving me a consistent signal when it's 3x farther away than Verizon's tower? "Within a mile away." Not only is their service garbage but it's over priced garbage.... They finally offer home internet in our area and it's laughable how inconsistent it is...

When I purchased the phone, the rep said there was a deal that they would give me a last year's iPad for free. When I got the first bill, there were three extra lines that I never signed up for. The bill was over $800.00. It was a scramble to get the extra lines suspended. After all that dust settled, I then found out that the iPad was not free. I didn't want to pay for it and was told I could return it and stop paying for it. But the charge never was dismissed despite multiple efforts and many delays.
A local rep is still trying to help me, but I'm not expecting anything to come of it. I have an overdue bill because I don't like giving money to thieves. They are cruel and greedy. I wish I could tell the world and throw off their horrible business. I am beyond angry and deeply frustrated. I spoke with many representatives, including some that made it clear to me that they feel the company is negligent and dishonest. I look forward to getting off their plan ASAP. The company is greedy, dishonest, negligent and criminal in my opinion. Absolutely horrible!

Verizon is a nightmare. They have 'automated" so much that it is nearly impossible to do any legit business with them. They charged me for a phone that didn't work. My boyfriend and I decided to "try" the "family plan" after seeing a promo ad on tv. His phone was never activated properly so for 3 weeks he could not make or receive calls. My "new" phone would not take a wall charge and could only be charged on my lap top which is not at all sustainable. We both got these lame new phones on a Verizon special. All we were asked to do is pay the taxes on the phones. Well 3 weeks AFTER I returned this DEFECTIVE phone Verizon CHARGED me over 800.00 for a phone I had already paid for. Now they refuse to refund me. I am currently retaining a lawyer as well as being part of a huge class action law suit that hundreds of people have filed against this behemoth of a failed company.
Do yourselves a favor and RUN. Do not walk AWAY FROM THIS HORRIBLE corporate pig of a company. They are horrendous and really should be put out of business for fraud. We moved to Consumer Cellular and are SO MUCH HAPPIER. They have REAL PEOPLE that actually pick up the phone. They do not charge separately for things like chargers like verizon does. Chargers come with the phones at Consumer Cellular as they should. Customer service is knowledgeable where verizon employees really cannot possibly navigate their horrible systems that are far too complicated and convoluted.
One verizon employee will say one thing, then when you call back the next verizon employee will tell you something totally different. It is quite literally impossible to get a real answer or any real help. When a company itself only cares about gouging their customers and taking as much as they can from you all while giving very little in return it is pretty obvious. Consumer Cellular has excellent (way better than verizon) coverage, great customer service, no gimmicks or false advertising. Just do it...get away from this fraud company and go back to real relationship with a company that has more than dollar signs in their eyes.

I have been with Verizon for three years now. My first three years was overall fine with a few dead spots in my area but overall comparable with the big 3! Then I received an offer to upgrade to an iPhone 15 from my iPhone 11 and I did NOT have to change my plan but would be on the hook with Verizon for another 3 years. I did it and it was a disaster. First they had one phone that they never did ship and had to replace it with another phone. Then they finally got us all three iPhone 15s and then told me that they were upgrading all 4 of my lines and my bill would go from 195 down to 185. Then I looked online and each line had a different monthly amount.
Called again and they "fixed the issue" and now I look online and I show two different plans. 2 lines on one plan and the other 2 lines on another plan. They show my next months bill being 329.00 and my "future monthly amounts" 222.00 a month. What happened to the 185.00 a month and I was told that I would have 30 gigabytes of hotspot per line and today I was told that I have no hotspot on two lines and only 5 gig on the other 2 lines! REALLY!!
I called back and told them that I had very little patience because I had been lied to over and over and I was pretty much done. They said they were sorry and that they would get me a credit on my account for the inconvenience and would fix my issues. Surprise, NO CREDIT ON ACCOUNT, instead a 329.00 bill and a bunch of "I'm sorry" and "how inconvenient" but nobody has answers. I get text saying that they have not received my trade in phones yet I have proof of delivery on all 3 phones. As of today, not 1 person has done what they said they would do. The last person I spoke to today said that he would send me an email stating that my bill would be 185.00 a month for the next 36 months and guess what, yep, NEVER CAME!!! ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY. Save your time and money and find another carrier.

Last October 2023 we cancelled service out of necessity as we lived with one bar and frequent dropped calls. AT&T handled the switchover at that time and my Bookkeeper told me last month that Verizon has billed me every month since then and unknowingly she has paid $81.23 for the last six months and so I've tried to call and speak with someone at Verizon many, many times and you can never reach anyone to ask for a refund. Don't they call themselves a "Communications" company? When I see the review ratings, I cannot imagine that senior executives aren't all over these issues.

Verizon discriminates based on the state you live in. Senior citizens can only get a senior discount if you live in Florida. You can only use the lifeline discount in 4 states. This is totally uncalled for by a wealthy company as Verizon.

Hello I had my phone for a year now sad to say Verizon are nothing but scammers. Very bad customer service all the way around. Metro pcs is better. Verizon doesn’t care about anything other than getting money even if the phone is broken. It’s like you're making notes on a car and it breaks down. I stop making payments. I go find something else. Verizon never again will I use you. Good bye. Less stress for me. Every 5 seconds you’re begging me for money and I can’t get calls, my phone doesn’t ring, take it in for service and they didn’t care. They just want the money. Go get a freaking job. You suck.

Very unsatisfied customer and will be shopping around to find another service! We have a family account (6 lines), one family member called to try to lower the bill due to the horrible reception that we have been getting, constant dropped calls and conversations that sounds like the person on the other end is a robot. She was informed by a Verizon associate that they could lower the bill by changing the plans on the lines and they would give her a Netflix/Max package perk but failed to inform her that by changing the plan on one of the lines that it would lose its promotional deal on a device payment and lose its perks of Disney/Hulu bundle.
I called back and tried to put the original plan back on the line, they ended up putting the plan back on the wrong line and she lost her Netflix/Max perk. I called back again to straighten it out and they said that they do not offer that plan anymore and if we wanted the Disney/Hulu package back that we would have to pay for it! Long story short, they allowed her to change a line plan so they could get it off a plan that they don't offer any longer so we would have to pay for the perks that they had promised and so that the monthly device payment would go up and when they were called out on it we were told that there was nothing that they could do about it. This was nothing short of dishonest and horrific business practices!

I switched to Verizon last year hoping that it will be better than my previous phone company. It's literally the worst! Every month I spend hours tracking down a live person to reverse the additional charges they come up with! They have the worst customer service. You can never find a live person, the automated chat is useless, and the problem is never resolved. They reverse the disputed charges only for them to appear again next month. If you don't pay attention to your bill, for which they give you an incentive to put on auto pay, then you are charged more every month for one thing or another.

My nightmare with customer service or lack of it! My new contract with Verizon began on April 1, 2024; I had ordered a new phone and signed a contract via virtual advisor and picked up my new Apple Iphone in person at the Verizon store in Garner, NC. Fast forward a few days and I began having dropped calls as well as my phone going to SOS mode every evening! Contacted verizon and was offered several things to try. Over the course of the next few days nothing worked so I called back and was told more things to try.
Finally had enough and on my 30th day which by luck have it was the last day to return the defective phone a tech agreed to overnight a new one. That was on Thursday,, May 2nd, 2024, waited all day Friday, May 3rd., called Customer Support and told it would be there by 8 pm. It never arrived, called back and got the recording it was after hours and to call back the next day. I called back Saturday, May 4th, 2024, passed around to 4 Reps, each lied and said they were getting me a supervisor, after an hour and no supervisor they said the phone should be there Monday, May 6th, the delivery driver dropped a phone no signature and no one home but my Mother saw them leaving and immediately came and retrieved the box, as she was about to pull away I arrived home, she said this box feels too light to have a phone, I opened the box and there was a phone box inside with no phone just a charger and dirty fingerprints on it.
I immediately called verizon and the nightmare began! I have contacted them almost every day since, being lied to each call that there was a replacement that would be shipped as soon as the 24-48 investigation into the stolen phone was completed! Wednesday was the time frame so I began calling back. I was told the phone would be shipped to replace this one. When the phone never arrived I called again and had to go through several reps, asked for a supervisor and was once again lied to, no supervisor came to the phone! I called again and was promised I would not have to go through any more reps that this gentleman was handling my call to the bitter end! After anothe hour being told he was getting a Supervisor, I had to go to a class!
The so called Supervisor returned my call and told me that the case was still pending and he could not do anything at this time! I almost lost my mind! The next call I made a lady informed me that the Warehouse had not been properly informed that my phone box arrive but no phone was inside but she would handle this issue and I would not have to deal with any other reps. She sent the message to the warehouse and said she was sending me a phone overnight and it was to arrive this past Monday, May 13th, 2024.
I called on Monday asking for a tracking number and was informed no phone had been shipped!! I called again this morning, May 15th and told no phone has been shipped and was left on hold waiting a Supervisor, which never came and I was told he may call me once he is out of his meeting in an hour or so!! I have wasted over 8 hours of my time being on the phone, which is totally unacceptable!! At this point I believe I should be released from this new contract and never have to deal with verizon ever again but each rep refuses and says that it not possible!! I am attempting to find an Attorney to take this off my shoulders before I actually have a stroke!

We were long time customers with Verizon. My husband's phone was not working properly so he called Verizon. The problems were confirmed to be covered by his insurance and Verizon sent him a new phone. Once all info was transferred we returned the old phone. Everything was fine for about 2 months. Then Verizon said, we didn't get the old phone back, then ok we received it. Then they said we owed $250 because we had dropped the insurance coverage . Not true because we always paid the same amount.
We spent many hours each week for a month on the phone with "supervisor" after supervisor told us "to pay" and got nowhere. We have never cheated anyone but we sure aren't paying for a new phone when his was covered by the insurance we had paid to Verizon. So Verizon puts this on our credit report. Shame on you Verizon.

I have been a faithful Verizon wireless customer since the early 2000's. I had a discount for paperless and autopay. However, in April of 2024 you can no longer use a debit/credit card and have to use a checking account. BE CAREFUL and read the fine print. You have to use a link they send you which then goes through an app called Trustly. You give Verizon access to Personal Details, Bank Account Details and Balances, Bank Account Transactions, Bank Account Statements, and Tax Documents for the last 24 months. If you do not give Verizon access to this information, you do not get your discount. Why would verizon need your tax statement personal information???? Something fishy going on and little too much info for a cellphone provider. Went to the store to give them the checking account info and they said you have to use the app only.

Today's post has been brought to you by the corrupt morons at Verizon. If I could rate Verizon -5 stars that would not do justice to the absolute dumpster fire that is this corrupt empire's business model. Hidden fees galore, price at first glance fantastic, you think, 55 "bucks" a month, that's not bad. Until you get your first bill for 266 USD. You're absolutely floored, disgusted, scared, how will I ever be able to afford this. I'll just lose my electric for a month. Next month will be cheaper. Maybe this is all just startup. Next month, next bill same story. This goes on etc etc, we cancel the contract 4 months in and consider it done.
We had not paid on the account. We just forgot about it til we got a call from the first debt collector. I was fresh out of rehab and trying to get my life together so I did the most adult thing I could do, and that's settle and pay it off in full. All is done. Right? WRONG! I check my credit score regularly, it's been growing steadily. My debt was going down when just like that bam. A hit to my record. A 206 dollar debt was sent to a collector by none other than Verizon Wireless. A debt I had no idea existed on an account I fully closed out of for 500 some dollars over a year ago. Closer to to.
They settled for 177 and are taking it off my credit report but this is total robbery as I fully believe that account was closed and my debt was rendered null. But nope, here I am, getting bent over by a corporation all over a couple hundred dollars. I already settled. End of story, Verizon Wireless sucks and I advise anybody to go with anything else. And for the record Verizon, your coverage isn't even good. I get better service with Boost Mobile and I only pay $35 a month.

I am having difficulties getting a detailed response from Verizon Wireless, writing, in New Jersey. On March 30, 2024, I switched mobile providers from T-Mobile to Verizon Wireless. There were a number of issues with the delivery of the four phones. After transferring the phone to Verizon Wireless, I continued to have problems.
Issue 1: The physical phones were shipped via UPS. I was never told that someone needed to be home to accept the package. I only received the day that the deliver was to occur. There wasn't a time range given. All I was told was that the delivery would occur before 7:00pm. When calling Verizon customer service, they indicated that I needed to contact UPS. When contacting UPS, they told me that I needed to speak with Verizon. I was told that would attempt three deliveries. If I was unable to receive the package, it would be shipped to the warehouse and I would receive a refund. The refund would take around two weeks to process. Fortunately, I worked near the UPS customer center. There the manage was helpful and held the package for me. Verizon was not concerned about the time I needed to spend to fix the issue.
Issue 2: Originally I was told that I could setup automatic checking account payments to receive a $10 per month/per line discount. I was also told that the automatic payments could not be set up at this time. When I received my billing statement, the discount was not present. I needed to argue with the billing department to get the credit. I did set up the autopay as soon as I was able to set it up. I eventually received the credit on my account.
Issue 3: I was told that I would get a rebate for each phone line because I switched providers. I submitted the form and waiting. The original message indicated that I was not entitled to the rebate. Speaking with Verizon Support on April 19, 2024, I was told that I would get the rebate because the denial was in error. I was given ticket number (**). At that time I was able to capture the CHAT using screenshots on my phone. After 7 days I tried to get an update. I was given a ticket number of **. After some time, attempted to get a status. Again I was told that I was entitled to the rebate. The customer service agent indicated that they couldn't find the ticket number to give me a status update. I was told that I was not entitled to the rebate and they would do an investigation.
General Support issues:
- The biggest issue is the inconsistent communications. If I was told I was not entitled to a rebate, I would have taken action before my one month range to return the phones and go back to my original mobile provider. This is costing me approximately $800.- The support agents of today could not find the support tickets that I was given each time that I called. I do have screenshots of one CHAT conversation.
- The Verizon application no longer allows screenshots or provides the customer with a log of the conversation. They do provide a CHAT id. The id is over 25 characters long, so it is difficult to capture. I was able to get one CHAT ID.
- I was informed that support cannot text or email me with detailed information. It is a generic message.
I would like the outcome of this complaint to be either $800 or allow me to switch away from Verizon without penalties. I feel that the whole delayed process is like a "bate and switch". If I was given the correct information on April 19, 2024, I would transferred away from Verizon. Today (May 7, 2024) I was told the 30 days for returning has past and I cannot return the two phones that I used to swap with Verizon.

Verizon, like all internet providers, continue to disappoint. I had a meeting with a rep and a "solutions specialist". The solutions specialist did not study the information I gave on our business needs - we are a seasonal business - but her solution sounded exciting and doable and she proposed a 3 year affordable device upgraded contract, paid monthly. The monthly wasn't a problem, but she forgot to add that if we disconnected service after our seasons (which we have done for 5 years with Verizon, as she was told), we would have to pay for the device in full. So what was $50 over three years (for each 120 locations) it was now $400 each for 70 locations (5G) and $300 each for 50 locations. So what we thought was going to be an upgrade for $6000 over three years, now became an upfront of $63,000. Her backup plan was a lesser device for $99 each, "if that helps". So, another disappointment as we slog through the yet to be honest and helpful ISP jungle. It is shameful that these huge companies can just run roughshod over people without paying a price.

My family has been with Verizon for about 10 years and honestly had only good things to say. Unfortunately, now that I just opened up my own account that's changed. Before my very first bill was due I tried to sign up for auto-pay and also accidentally hit pay current bill. Well turns out I mistype 1 number in my routing number and was never notified that the transaction didn't go through. In fact, I was actually told the opposite, confirmation number and all. I only found out about the issue because of an auto-pay cancelation notification that came 12 days after enrolling.
Now I'm restricted to only card until October and was told by financial services I cannot fix it until my restriction ends. Again, all this happened because of the first payment on my first bill on a brand new account. To top it off if I hadn't asked multiple times why I couldn't just enter my card info myself via the Verizon app I would have been charged for them entering the info for me over the phone. This is honestly ridiculous for what is literally my first bill payment. I can't believe I chose to pay more and stay with Verizon instead of switching to Mint because I thought I could trust this company.

Verizon sucks, charge way too much money and half the time the service sucks, definitely stay away from this company.

I transferred my Verizon wireless to a new provider back in November. They kept telling me that I still was subscribed to a number associated with my iPad. I had no idea there was a number associated with it and never used the iPad outside of WiFi. I told them to cancel it as I never needed it in the first place. I paid $20.81 to finalize what I thought was the last bill, confirming it with a person on the phone and also visited the store. I kept getting bills to the tune of $221. They assured me that it was paid and would have someone call me if they had questions or concerns. Never received a call, and I ignored the bill.
They have since turned it over to Collections and they threatened me that if I don't pay it, it will go on my credit report! I worked hard to get my credit score to 840 and didn't want that to happen. So with a noose around my neck, I ended up paying it. These people are crooks and not understanding at all.

Updated on 05/06/2024: Again, Verizon does not deserve a star, if fact it should be a -10 stars! I am still being harassed by Verizon! I have been trying to close this account for a good 3 months, and finally I believe all my numbers have been ported over and the account closed. One little hiccup: they indicate I still owe for 1-3 months? I have questioned this again and the response I got was: "Oh your bill is so high because you are paying off the desk phone".... I was paid off in october of last year.
Then I was told I have a high bill because the service was shut off... mind you before the end of the billing cycle that was paid for. They said I was responsible for reactivating the service even though they had shut it off. I needed the number ported over, but Verizon in all their wisdom failed to do what was needed to get the number ported....taking me an additional 2 months of their crappy service to finally get it done, however I am being billed 3 times what that last month should have been charged. If I owed the the bill I would quickly just pay it, but I do not owe it and getting them to recredit and pay you back is virtually impossible!
As it sits, I am returning any and all their equipment, with a supposed credit. Of course it is to go against the supposed "bill" I owe. I will never see any money returned even though the first year I had Verizon, I paid over $9000 just in monthly bills, and then last october I paid off $3000 for equipment charges. Verizon NEVER fulfilled the contract, but yet I'm penalized for their screw ups! As a small business, paying this kind of bill was just a total nightmare! Verizon has yet to explain why 1 month I was charged $1200, and the next month $200. Or why when trying to close the account, I am expected to pay more when everything was paid off!
I unfortunately can't tell the whole nightmare story as there is not enough time in the day to include every detailed issue I have had! I just know, I would seriously rethink Verizon as a company I would ever consider doing business with! They do NOT CARE WHO THEY RIP OFF! Stay far away from this awful company! They are far from bad, they are the worst company I have had the misfortune of coming in contact with! Never plan on getting the same answer from any of the idiots that work there! They all misrepresent and fabricate any and all responses. I honestly believe they intentionally go out of their way to really piss people off in hopes that they will get so discussed that they just give up! I am to that point, I am tired of fighting, out of all the audits our consumer agencies conducts on crappy companies, I wish Verizon was on the top of their list! Awful, Awful company! Stay far away!
Original Review: If I could I would not give Verizon any stars! Verizon has been a total nightmare with my business account! They extort the heck out of you/your business etc. I have had nothing but horrible service since I started. When I argue with the support person - mind you I did not curse or say inappropriate words like stupid, dumb or anything else, I was not out to insult the person helping me. I just needed to get things cleared up, however when they could no longer answer the questions...because they made no sense, or possibly they realized they COULDN'T give an intelligent answer.....they simply hung up! (Even after requesting a supervisor.)
My bills have ranged from $400 to $1200, without a reason as to why. When I was given a guarantee that things would be adjusted...my bills just got higher. I would get past due notices, with late charges, only to see that there was no past due issues, but they still got the extra payments. When I was over charged on my home account, I was told we were SOL as no refund would be made - the issue was fixed but the $$ extra that added up over $400 was never refunded. I would never in a million years recommend this fly by night company who have no respect for anyone and the bottom number is what it is all about even if they obtain it by ripping their own customers off! If you are looking for a good wireless company STAY AWAY FROM VERIZON! THEY ARE THE WORST!

Verizon Wireless ruined the phone I bought outright from Samsung and had had for less than a month, their fix was to give me the same phone from them, or so I thought. Instead they gave me a "trade in credit" which is essentially just a contract for a no contract plan. You have to stick with them for 3 years or you lose whatever trade in credit you had. I then did not have service at my house, was missing important work calls and texts, I stated I was going to just cancel with them anyways and that was when I was finally told the above. Which was apparently on page 16 of the stack of papers they gave me.
I was sent an extender for my troubles, which does not help in any room other than my living room. I have stuck through this for over a year and Tmobile was doing a promotion last month where they would give you up to 850 dollars to pay the previous phone off. You have to have the itemized copy of the bill from Verizon and send it to them in order to take advantage of the rebate. It has been 32 days, which is over the 30 day limit for the rebate.
I am now on the hook for the full price of the Verizon phone, which if the credit had been applied as it should have been, in full and just taken off of the balance of the phone, there would be no balance at all because Verizon WILL NOT send me my final bill. They are still charging the service for children's watches even though I canceled prior to my next billing period. They finally canceled the main line but are still charging for watches that have been paid off for a while now. Do not use this company. They are crooked, lying, thieves. They claim to have service in my area, but my phone determined that to be a lie. Despite a multitude of calls to customer service and having to completely factory reset my phone each time I still did not have service. My opinion won't matter much, but Verizon deserves to be sued until they go out of business. They intentionally mislead everyone that signs up with them.

I’ve been a loyal Verizon customer for years, but my recent experience has left me deeply disappointed. About 10 months ago, enticed by the promise of affordable internet at $29 a month without any contractual obligations or equipment fees, I made the switch from Comcast. However, what seemed like a fantastic deal quickly turned sour as my bill skyrocketed to over $80 a month. Despite numerous calls to customer service and providing the name and contact information of the initial salesman who set up my account, I learned today that none of the representatives made any note of my concerns or contacted him for clarification. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable.
After about nine months, I unfortunately had to close my business, rendering the equipment and service from Verizon unnecessary. To my dismay, I discovered that I’m on a payment plan for the device, making it impossible to return. Now, I’m faced with having to pay almost $300 for equipment that serves me no purpose whatsoever, adding to my frustration.

I am unsure if it's a location issue or Verizon issue but the instore agents lie about discounts, sales and prices as well as adding charges to your bill without your consent. In the past I have requested lines to be removed as well and lines were never removed. Today I was told I would receive a $25 loyalty discount, which is great! Once I got off the chat with the agent he changed it from $25 to $10. I then got back on the chat and have been told I don't qualify for a $25 discount, even though the agent offered this. I am 2.5 hours into this chat with customer service and they refuse to honor their discount THEY OFFERED.
At this point I guess they'd prefer losing a 8 year long customer rather than honoring their original offer. Supervisor Ryan and his team with the online chats have been awful.

NEVER GET VERIZON HOME INTERNET - PLEASE SHARE! I don't like to make long posts complaining about a company but I've pretty much exhausted all my options and this seems to be the ONLY way to get someone higher than some customer service rep to do ANYTHING. I had Verizon home internet at my previous address but had to move out last February. The apartment I moved into was about three miles away and I have a roommate here who already has internet so naturally I decided to cancel my Verizon home internet. I go through the process of cancelling with a representative online and they tell me they are going to send me a return kit to ship the modem back. I provide them with the new address I'm moving to and am told I will receive it in 7-10 days.
7-10 days passes and nothing comes. I call the new tenants living at the old apartment to check and see if perhaps they received anything. They confirm that they hadn't. At this point I chat with an online rep with Verizon again and ask them if they have sent the return kit. They just say that they will send another. I confirm the address again with them and same deal. They say they will send a return kit to the address.
Fast forward another few days. My roommate's sister works for T-Mobile and offers me an insider discount and T-Mobile will pay off the remaining balance on my phone I got through Verizon if I switch over to them. So I do since it only makes sense. I close my mobile account with Verizon at the beginning of March but still haven't received this box to ship my home internet modem back. I instead go to the Verizon store to try and hand in the Modem directly and they explain that I need to contact customer service as they can't take the modem. I ask if they can just send me a QR code or the shipping label electronically and I can take it to FedEx or UPS. They explain that they can't do that since my account has been closed.
I have now gone to the Verizon store twice, and spoken to four different customer services reps. I also checked with the USPS to see if they had anything for me (they don't) and the tenants at my last three addresses to see if they perhaps received anything (they didn't). As a final measure I gave the modem to my mother in Joliet and told them to send a return kit to her address. It's been two weeks and she hasn't received anything. They have no tracking numbers, no way of tracking the return kits that they send out.
Now they are going to try and charge me $200 for not returning the modem which I have tried EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO DO! I looked online for answers and I am not the only one having this same issue but since Verizon is a big corporation the people who made the decision to only accept return kits through the mail never actually talk to the people on the ground this affects. The people at the store say they've heard the same thing. The customer service reps tell me the same thing. How is this the ONLY way in which they can process a return? It's asinine. There needs to be a pdf QR code label that you can take into FedEx or UPS and they can ship it for you (like other companies do) or there should be an option to drop it off at a store and they can send it off.

Plus, you buy a phone on "lay-away" and your bill never changes once by anybody's math you'd paid it off. But, now they continue to charge me after my number is gone from their system, and after I called to question a month's charge ($84) a month after no service! The guy on phone said I was "all set" sorry for the error. Again, bills came, called again yesterday and if I don't pay the bill and late fee ($128) they say I'm going to collection. I have an 800+ credit score. I pay my bills, and yep, they got me paid this one. Now what? Sent a nasty letter along with my check. How can they charge me when my number was switched over? My old phone cleaned got a new one?

Customer Service Reps Lie. I have always considered Verizon the best for getting a signal even in rural areas. We have had a business account now for 8 years. Unfortunately, their customer service is beyond AWFUL!!! I had a phone that had issues and they offered the free Upgrade of a Samsung Galaxy S21FE5G. What a piece of junk! I took it 2xs to the local Verizon store where they zipped through it saying that there were too many apps causing an iss...I never added any. Then I phoned customer service. They replaced it with another of the same with the same issues as the 1st one. In addition, it took about 4 hours to get it set up with help from technical support. I phoned back and requested that they send me a new model, one that I would actually have to pay for, not a free phone. I arranged it and they texted my husband for his consent, which he gave (the business owner)..
I had requested that the representative email me a copy of the request which she did. I phoned back to ask when I would receive the phone and they denied that I had ever even made the request and had no record of the phone call that I was on for over 1 1/2 hrs!!! I asked to speak to a supervisor. They transferred me 3x's. The final person would not allow me to speak with a supervisor and that no one had spoken to me and no one had offered the other phone. I told her that I could forward the email from just 3 days beforehand and she said that they couldn't receive emails. She spoke over me and was very aggressive. This call was nearing 2 hrs!! I was absolutely furious with my experience. The problem phone then stopped working, saying no service, I think she turned off the service. I phoned back again after 2 days and spoke with a man who said that his supervisor was in a meeting and would call me back in 15 minutes.
NO ONE EVER CALLED BACK! I bought a new Razor Flip Phone with Mint Mobile. Transferred my # so I could have a phone again. Now they're charging us for the defective phone that doesn't even work and said our insurance won't apply. I went to the local store again and asked to send the phone for an insurance claim and replace it. They said no longer possible and the manager said he couldn't do anything about it. I told him that we are now moving all of our services to Mint Mobile which we are doing. Way better value..big saving. I recommend it.
The bottom line is that this is not the 1st time that we have had a very bad customer service experience with this ill-managed company. I have 2 family members who bought their Business Phone System and are very disappointed. BIG HEADACHE. They are not trustworthy. The customer service reps lie. Here's one way of telling...So they record every conversation right...says so while you are on hold. They lie that they can't listen to previous commitments/resolutions and for these calls, you do not receive ANY emails or text message to rate your experience! It makes no sense, I was willing to buy a way more expensive phone and keep the service for all of the lines, but no! Good Bye.

I wish that I could give a zero star rating. I always bought my iPhones outright every year and went to the neighborhood phone store to get it on a $60 month to month service. But I thought it made me more of a mature woman to finally go to a major phone company finally. I got personal cellular service with a Verizon Wireless associate over the phone. After being told and assured of what my monthly bill amount would be and that I was not in a contract I got the service. I mailed them my new iPhone that I bought outright, because they said it would lower my monthly bill amount. I called Verizon multiple times after the phone credit was never added to my bill. The associate asked me for records that they should’ve had.
After weeks of calling to complain, they finally had someone call me to add the phone credit to my bill. It was like fighting for honest service with a downright deceptive and deceitful entity. After months of various charges, monthly bills that fluctuated up to $100 differences, disputes on records and equipment I decided to shut down the line to switch to AT&T. Three months after the line being disconnected I see that this company took $290.56 from my bank account, information that they previously had.
Additionally, after investigating my bank records they had taken other fees from my bank account without my knowledge or consent. I immediately called to rectify the situation. I spoke with Ron. He explained many times that the charge was valid, because it is what was owed to resolve the remaining balance on the disconnected account. I asked him repeatedly to remove/ clear my bank account information from their system and refund the unauthorized charge. He refused and just kept repeating his original statement.
I asked to speak to a supervisor, and he told me that one wasn’t available and that they would tell me the same thing that he told me. I told him that I would hold to speak to a supervisor and asked him not to hang up on me. I held in silence for over 40 minutes while he set the phone down. Then he hung up on me. I contacted my bank to have them investigate the situation and blocked Verizon Wireless from pulling whatever amount of money they deemed fit to fraudulently steal from my account.

Had to replace the router 3 times in the last year and now the WiFi went down in the middle of my work day - I work from home and when I called had to wait until the afternoon the next day for a service rep to come out and repair their equipment that failed on the pole outside my house. I lost half a day of work and then the next entire day cost me over $300 and they wanted to credit me $6.
What a joke. When so many people work from home and your equipment is faulty it should be a lot more than $6. If there is one more problem I will not be staying with Verizon. I cannot believe there is no emergency service people and the Tech that came out was surprised I had to wait this long. He said there were not that busy.

On March 18th I got my bill, it was in snail mail, it was 3 pages, 2 of them general ad nauseum... 1 page was about my service, 2 lines $99.38 for one line, $81.62 for the other. No description at all, just that total. The page had a QR code, I used my Verizon cell to snap it, all that did was open up a login, that required a code sent to that cell, when I went to my messages to get the code, it was there, but when I returned to the page asking for that code, that page was gone. So, repeat, the above, same thing, like an idiot, I repeated and the the reply was lock out.
The verizon site is unusable at times and the sent paper bills are useless because no info. Years ago, a 3 digit entry in my cell got me an operator. Not anymore. This must be why Verizon profits many Billions of dollars every year. Likely the operators years ago got yelled at for unethical policies and charges, so the operators quit or wanted more money, or were just let go because Verizon could just do that. The service offered the consumer about the services offered and the prices/cost is a real short stick to put it lightly. My bill is unstable, in spite of being "Unlimited" calls and text. Why this month's almost $20 increase is not known to me and I can not find out. Last month was an extra $150, but $100 was a call to Africa, the other $50 was a service fee on that call. To learn about that took me over an hour on the phone. That is why today I tried to look at my bill that I asked for the last month so I did not need to call. In short, the bill I got was zip.

Hello, managers or Verizon users. I recently had the worst experience of switching to Verizon from another mobile carrier. This disaster has shattered Verizon's credibility for us. We are seriously concerned about whether Verizon should be trusted once again. I'm going to tell you this unbelievable thing. On March 12, my family and I signed up for Verizon with five new plans, along with promotions. In the process, my mother-in-law and my wife bought an iPhone 15 Pro Max 1TB, iPhone 14 plus, and Apple watch, respectively. Verizon's offline Riverdale branch initially lied to us with plausible things to say. Spencer, an offline salesperson, ordered my wife's phone to an address that was not confirmed by us, and we never imagined this would happen. Because we never gave them that address, and we repeatedly checked our current address twice or three times.
Also, we weren't informed by him that a high cost of more than $500 would be collected initially for the first payment. He lied to us that the $250 bill would just be charged monthly. After that, he promised us a guaranteed delivery two days later, but we still haven't received the Apple Watch and the iPhone 15 Pro Max. We already paid for this, but we haven't received the Apple Watch and iPhone 15 Pro Max for a week. The telephone consultants responded that our phones and watches were directed to different addresses and were on their way back to Verizon's warehouse. As a result, for three weeks, we have been going back and forth between Verizon's customer service calls and the sales store we paid to solve this horrible problem. I experienced three weeks of worst-case experiences from Verizon's sales store and customer service center, and I see no sign of this being resolved.
To resolve this, I applied for a vacation from my company, but so far, nothing has been fixed normally. Connecting with Verizon's telephone consultants takes about minutes of waiting each time, and their answers have always been different. The biggest problem I've ever had is that Verizon needs to train their staff seriously according to through a unified manual. In the process, three representatives through customer service promised that my wife's phone, the Iphone 15 Pro Max, and the Apple Watch, would be free of charge in return for misdelivery caused by the misleading sales staff and they promised us to call back tomorrow and the phone and watch will be delivered together, but they never called us back. This was recorded as Verizon's phone records three times, but to this day, we still haven't received our phones and watches. We were so upset that we went to Verizon's Offline store twice without Spencer.
The manager and other staff also told us they couldn't provide us with anything and that free phones and watches couldn't be provided by Verizon's policy, providing conflicting answers to phone counselors. We asked for troubleshooting and compensation for what happened to our employees' mistakes, but they asked us for another payment and an additional sales tax that was repeated. When we refused, the other way was to cancel Verizon and charge us for using it. This is a solution beyond common sense, and we do not accept such unusual responses. While more than 15 repeated phone consultations to date have violated consumer rights that are not followed, my family and I are getting tired. I can not trust Verizon's customer service, which is dotted with different answers and lies each time. My family has been denied a recorded call request by Verizon's customer service supervisor.
As a result, for three weeks, my family did not receive any of our promised services and has already paid for them. Also, nothing has been resolved, and my family and I have been duped and abandoned between Verizon's customer service center and the offline store. Imagine if this were going through with your family and you. If Verizon employees were going through the same thing as us, they would have solved this problem immediately, unlike how they were treating us. This is a ridiculous disaster. We desperately need anyone to get this done. Verizon has to ensure improved service as a conglomerate that suits their reputation.
My family and I still don't understand why we have to endure this kind of mental pain, discomfort, and irrationality while paying a fair amount of money. We don't need stupid compensation like a loyalty program. We just demand what we deserve normally and what you promise. Rather, we'll have to receive compensation for the abnormal response we've had, the serious lies and deceit we've received from Verizon's sales person, and the impractical jokes we've gotten from our telephone consultants.

I called to get help, first guy had no clue what he was doing and without a word to me transfered me to AMC.. Still don't know why.. Second guy.. Was GREAT.. But he could not fix the issue either, all he could do was submit a ticket. I got off work at 9pm issue still not resolved. I chatted in and just said refund my money with the intention of trying to do it again all over - ohhh no... Could never be that easy with verizon. Whoever I spoke to 1. Didn't even verify my account before playing with anything in there, then I asked for a sup 4 times, never got one. They said I was never charged for the netflix..
How can you even say that when a ticket was submitted this morning for it?! How can you say that with the account is still pending?! I was told I would have to have the money applied to my verizon account instead of returned to my card WHERE IT CAME FROM.

I have been using Verizon Wireless for more than 3 decades, always issues with signals everywhere and worst signal indoor because their high frequency cannot penetrate the walls of the building. In the past decades I have missed hundreds of calls and text messages. One time my son texted me a message in March and I got that message in August. Hundreds of times I’m calling or texting my wife in the same building we work. Both of our phones don’t ring. No miss calls and hardly receive text messages. In the past years every time I call someone the call gets cancel multiple times then I close all the apps and it might go through the 4th or 6th time. One of the most expensive plans, worst service in the world, basically day light robbery, the entire country should ban their services.
My co-worker has T-Mobile and today when he saw my phones speed test after turning off my phone inside the building it showed 14.5 download and 4.5 upload and his phone showed 1400 download and 100 upload, and after we walked outside the building my phone showed 640 download and 24 upload and his phone showed 1600 download and 240 upload this was ridiculous, unbelievable and outrageous. A company who claims the best wireless service in the world, seriously? “Can you hear me?” I doubt it!!!! Anyways we have 10 lines and we are switching out all to T-Mobile….

I hate this company. I've been with them for most 10 years- either they jack up your bill because of some tiny print changed (like you no longer get a discount for paying by debit) or they just hike prices (this month it was up $9). Either way, they nail you for an extra $10-$20/mo no matter what. I'm changing companies! And now- they can't "find my email" although I've used this email FOREVER for bills!

As a Lifeline/ACP customer, I was told that the phone is free through the acp program. After a while, they kept charging my account the taxes on the plan, although there should be no cost. The service is shotty at best, sometimes good signal, sometimes poor signal. When have good signal, acts like your not connected to internet. When I went to talk about porting my number, they explained that I would have to pay the remaining balance on a phone that was said to be free and nothing was paid towards the phone due that lifeline/Acp provides a free phone and service for those who qualify. They argued that it was a supposed promotion. If you want a truly free phone and service from a phone carrier, do not use Verizon.
They will find a way to swindle people out of money when the entire service, phone and all should be free. Then want to argue that if send phone back, it's not guaranteed they would waive the cost of the phone either way. This is a scam of a company and they will scam people out of hundreds of dollars on phones that are supposed to be paid for by the government. How crummy and greedy do you have to be to rip the poor people off.

This company is terrible, stay away from this company. Their service is terrible and they are extremely expensive. At 1st I had 4 phones, then one of my kids were grown and went to a different service with his phone. Then Verizon raised my bill and raised it 3 times. I was paying more for 3 phone than 4 phones. With 4 phone lines, 3 line at $35 and 1 at $45. I should have been paying $150 plus tax but I was paying $250. Then the monthly bill for 3 phones were suppose to be $40 for 2 phone and 1 at $50, so my bill should have been $130, but my bill was between $260-280 a month.
I traded my phone in and they were suppose to give me $1000 for my trade in but when I ended my service they charged me for the full price of the phone and refuse to give my old phone back. So basically they stole my trade in phone. I had to pay in advance in order to start the service and they charged me a full month of service even though I ended the service 2 weeks before the monthly billing cycle. My last bill is $920. This company steals from their company and is a terrible company and should be put out of business.

I switch to Verizon Wireless because they offered a good deal on the iPhone 15 so I went to the store and poured it over my number and I got two phones. One was a iPhone 15 and one was the iPhone 15 Pro Max upon getting these phones I was getting a rebate I was getting a $300 rebate for the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and a $200 rebate for the iPhone 15. They did not disclose to me that the rebate would be only allowed to be used at Verizon! At the same time that I got my phones, I got all my accessories needed to protect my phone.
I was angry days later, when I found out that I could only use rebates at Verizon, I pay my bill religiously and there’s nothing I need at the Verizon store as far as accessories or other stuff so in my mind OK all I can do with it is to pay my cell phone bill, well, they got me and they got me good. Most times when you get a rebate you either get a gift card or a check so you could spend your rebate anywhere that you wanted to that’s how rebates work., so now Verizon yes they get they’re giving me a substantial rebate but I can’t use it anywhere else but Verizon Verizon has made it that the money would go back to them either by paying the cell phone bill or buying accessories. I believe it should’ve been my choice with my rebate what I wanted to do with it that's usually how rebates work but not at Verizon.
So with all this being said, just be aware, they promised the moon and stars in the beginning then after they get you as a customer, that’s when all the promises turn false. If you’re getting rebate, you should get a rebate that you can spend. Anyway you want wherever you want that’s what rebates are for. I gave one star, because zero wasn’t offered!

I will start with a couple positives, because yes, there absolutely are some. Verizon has great trade in deals and also some cool bundles (Disney bundle in particular) that we really enjoyed. We got new phones and the terms were just as described. Other than that, this phone company is the most exploitative and predatory of any I’ve used prior and I have had Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T within my lifetime.
To make a long story short, we were traveling and using our accrued Travel Pass days in order to use our services abroad. Normally this costs $10 a day, however we were told if we used my partners phone, we would not be charged as it is a part of our plan. What they didn’t tell us was when they added my phone line to her plan, they did not specify it as mine and instead it looked like she owned two phones. Turns out, MY phone is the one that had the accrued days, not hers, even though she had the same number and owned the account for 7 years.
The response I received after being on the phone for an hour can be summed up as “Well oopsies, sorry consumer, since we don’t have any documentation of us telling you this the charges are valid and your bill is now 80 bucks more for this month, now go kick rocks.” Safe to say we will be switching providers and not giving this company another dime after. Hope that 80 bucks was worth losing thousands over decades.

I had to port our phones to Verizon this weekend. We were with Spectrum, but they won't sell you mobile if you don't buy their internet service. In any case, no big deal, I used to work for Neustar, at this point number ports are routine, right? Wrong. Without question, this has been the worst experience I've had. Three trips to the Verizon store, each time I was assured that it was taken care of, give it four hours. Days have gone by, no port and even worse, no service at all. Navigated the horrible automated Verizon systems to get to a live agent. She figured out that the store had been incorrectly entering information. She fixed it. I received confirmation that both numbers had been ported. 12 hours later, still no port, no service. I chatted with an agent for two hours. I pointed out several times that each of the phones still had multiple eSims, but they ignored that. Finally, they recognized that multiple eSims was a problem. You're welcome.
On my phone, they had me delete all of the eSims, they pushed a new one, everything was good. I asked that they do the same thing for my wife's phone. We finished the process, but the number they used was the Verizon temporary number, not the ported number. Back on chat, agent says there is no record of the number being ported. Contacted my old carrier, they report that the number has been ported and they can't do anything about it. Verizon want me to go back to my old carrier and open a new account, activate a Sim with them so that they can port again, with no guarantee that they won't lose the port, again. At every step of this process, Verizon has shown incompetence, a lack of attention to detail, and have made every problem MY problem to fix.
I'm into my fourth day of trying to fix this nonsense. During that time, I haven't been able to access anything that requires 2FA, which is literally costing me money now, and while everyone is apologetic, no one has been able to solve anything. The one thing they have been able to do is send me my first bill and repeatedly tried to upsell me on services and phones. Are you kidding me? I'm stuck in purgatory as I write this review, in between carriers with no functioning service. I absolutely regret ever having chosen Verizon as a carrier and highly recommend you avoid this company like COVID. Go anywhere else, it can't possibly be this bad across the board.

NO, The Verizon store took my mother's phone, did not send it into Verizon for the rebate, took us several months to get it applied to her account, that is after we had to contact the local police department to get the phone back from the Verizon authorized retailer store. Only to find out later on that she was STILL being billed for the phone. Keep in mind, that the phone was PAID IN FULL. Her bills consisted of charges for Smart Home, Apple Arcade, and other charges that she did not need or sign up for. In the end, she was paying almost $200 a month for a phone.

The plan that I have now includes all kinds of great perks (Disney, Hulu, ESPN etc) . I especially love the worldwide roaming. I live in Tennessee and sometimes Google Maps will tell me to take some dirt road to get where I want to go and every single time, I stay connected to Verizon's network.
In some places I can't use the data but I can still make phone calls. The only other company that was able to complete their coverage here is AT&T but I don't want to be their customer again.

We traded 3 devices, 2 of which were less than 1 year old, and were told for 3 Verizon devices 2 would be free and the would be 10 or 15 a month. We now have a device payment of over $1000. We were told because we switched we would be credited for almost 3 months of services due to current promotional offers.
We have gotten shut-off notices every single month. We have called your main customer service several times and were told the issues were rectified and credits were issued. They were not. We called the locations, but the employee would not answer or return our calls. We went to our local location only to be told the only people who could help us were the ones who set it up. This is absolute insanity. I want to end service immediately, credit for all your mistakes, and given 3 devices at least equal to what we gave you.

I purchased the Apple bundle. First of all, their advertisement and website information is so vague that my checkout showed one total for each item purchased and once I got through checkout, it was twice as much. Secondly, I spent 9 hours on the phone with customer service and tech support to put the correct phone number on the phone. I listed the phone number and supplied the port number just as requested but when it was all said and done, they got the number wrong and that part took them 2 hours to finally fix.
After nine hours over three days, the phone still won't accept or make phone calls, or accept or send text messages. This is so frustrating. Now they tell me that I need to go to a store location to get it fixed. The mobile account still doesn't show up on my on-line account. I still can't see what they are charging me and the purchase was 5 days ago. I wish they would train their employees on how to help customers. I know that I can't be the only one having these issues.

Returned to Verizon after several years because they have always had reliable service and we needed to upgrade to 5 G for my husband's job. This has been one of my worst cell service experiences. I had to call so many times in regards to my bill changing. Charges just appearing on my bill. One issue was we got a free watch from them. My husband broke it a few days later in an accident. We knew we had a contract to fulfill for the watch service so we bought another watch and called Verizon to tell them. They said they took care of it and then Two months later charge me back for the full price of the watch.
There have been several other bill incidents but the latest is they gave me a loyalty discount of $10 a line which lasted a month and then this month they took $7 of that discount away from each line increasing my bill by $23. I’d do auto pay but never know what my bill is going to be because even though I pay for unlisted everything somehow my bill fluctuates every month. Don’t have 20 hours a weeks to try and talk to them about this. As soon as my contract is up I’m canceling and will NEVER go back after this experience. This experience has shown me they have zero integrity as a company. If you're thinking about doing business with them think twice.

Verizon did not say we will take your phone and pay you monthly for it because if that's the case they should have to follow the same guidelines. If the customer wants to pay something off there's interest charged along with an agreement. I told them to cancel the plan and give iphone 13 back. They said they can't because of the contract.

They claim I cancelled my service and then reinstated it on the same day so I made the free phone null and void. This never happened and I’ve been on customer service for hours getting the runaround. I despise this company.

I am deeply infuriated at the appalling experience I had with Verizon. Not only did they scam me out of a substantial amount of money, totaling nearly $2000, but they also showed a complete lack of willingness to provide a satisfactory resolution. Beware of engaging with Verizon if you value honesty, fair treatment, and reasonable customer service. To provide some context, I had been a loyal Verizon customer for several years, entrusting them with my phone and internet services. However, I recently encountered a situation that exposed their true colors. Verizon made a grave mistake, and instead of taking responsibility and rectifying the issue promptly, they chose to further inconvenience me and penalize me for their own blunder.
When I realized the discrepancy in my bill, amounting to almost $2000, I immediately contacted Verizon's customer support. I expected them to acknowledge their error and swiftly refund the entire amount. Unfortunately, what followed was an agonizing back-and-forth that left me astounded by their lack of professionalism and integrity. Verizon only credited me $1200, ridiculously claiming that this was the "maximum compensation" I was entitled to. Excuse me? I was scammed out of $2000, and they are nonchalantly dismissing the rest? This is not only unacceptable but also highly deceptive on Verizon's part.
To add insult to injury, Verizon went so far as to suspend my services as punishment for their mistake. Instead of addressing their internal issues and focusing on assisting their customers, they decided to penalize me, causing further inconvenience and stress. Their actions showcase a complete disregard for basic fairness and customer-oriented practices. Worst of all, their customer service department has failed me miserably. The representatives I dealt with were unhelpful, unsympathetic, and seemingly untrained in handling such matters. They displayed a complete lack of empathy and refused to listen to my concerns, pushing blame onto me instead.
Verizon's arrogance and unwillingness to acknowledge their mistake is utterly disappointing. It is highly disheartening to witness such unethical behavior from a reputable telecommunications company. I implore anyone considering Verizon to be extremely cautious and consider alternative service providers who prioritize their customers and display transparency in their actions. In conclusion, Verizon's actions have left me feeling betrayed, frustrated, and cheated out of my hard-earned money. I strongly advise potential customers to steer clear of Verizon's dishonest practices and find a service provider that values integrity and treats their customers with respect.

I have been a long-term Verizon customer until today. They told me that they were giving me a thirty dollar a month credit each month on my bill because I was a long-term customer and I am disabled. And they don't offer internet in my area. I have to hotspot to my TV in order to watch it which is all I get to do now since I am disabled and confined to my home. My bill was supposed to be a straight $108.71/per month and they have their recording my call to back that up. But they went back up on my bill to $143 and my hotspot, for which is the only way I can watch TV. Reception sucks.
I told them that they were gonna keep pushing me and that. I would want to changing cell phone companies. Well, I finally did today. I went from Verizon to T-Mobile and I couldn't be happier. T-Mobile is giving me 150 GB for mobile hotspot. And not only that, my bill is a lot outperform everything that Verizon couldn't do. So I will not go back to Verizon at all period and I don't suggest anybody else stick with them either. They will try to snowball you.
