Best service EVER

Posted on: July 31st, 2008 by Anastasia Andalupa

The good: Great coverage, friendly customer service, issues quickly resolved. The bad: It's a little pricey but its worth it.Summary: It's a great service. I've never had a dropped call and customer service is great. All my friends are on it and so it makes the IN unlimited texting worth it. I recommend it to anyone.

Phone service & Customer service

Posted on: May 13th, 2008 by B H

The good: Great looking phones. The EnV is a cool device.The bad: -Bad reception where other companies phones flourish.-Customer service was unhelpful, rude and lied to me just to sell me a phone.Summary: Unable to get service just 50 miles south of Abilene, I went to a Verizon store to discuss a fix.The sales associate told me I needed to get an analogue phone to get service. Yet, since analogue was going away in the next couple of months I didn't need a two-year contract."Don't worry about it." he says. Just come in and we'll take care of it and you won't have to pay early termination, yadda yadda. I believed him, so I bought the phone AND another line to get service where I couldn't before.I go in to terminate the service and change my plan and what happens? Since those terms weren't "In the Notes", they couldn't terminate the plan without an early termination fee.The sales rep ALL but called me a liar and now I'm stuck with a phone line I don't use and their is "nothing" they can do.Poor phone service, extremely poor customer service at the store level. I called into Customer service, explained my situation to the only nice guy that sounded like Fez from the 70's show and he went to talk to his manager. The verdict? they basically said it was my word against his...and I can understand that...if it were a COURT OF LAW. This is a multi-billion dollar franchise that takes a lying sales clerk's arrogant words over an honest customer trying to take the right steps to resolve an issue. I've had issues with their employees before at other stores, but I chalked it up as someone having a bad day; which is something I do as a person, yet shouldn't have to do as a customer in the first place. I was absolutely appalled by the lack of decency a person could have in this situation...and then have the COMPANY back that indecency up? Utterly amazing! I literally couldn't believe what had just transpired. I've been with them for almost 10 years! THAT was an ender!I terminated my service...late fees and all.

Shooting the wrong party

Posted on: April 10th, 2008 by Kenneth Weinke

I have read most of the comments on this site. Most Cons deal with service reps and deal with malfuctions of the cell phone. Service providers don't make the cell phones and naturaly can't service or give warrantees on their performance. When you read the whining on cell phone (radio) performance it's not the service providers responsibility, it's the cell phone manufacturer. I.E. Motorola, Nokia, Samsung etc

Great Everywhere But Here

Posted on: February 18th, 2008 by Keith Miner

The good: Never had a problem before moving to Fort BraggThe bad: Service is horrible where I'm at nowSummary: I recommended Verizon to all my friends before a year ago when I moved to Fort Bragg. EVERYWHERE I went, I always had at least decent service sometimes in places where many of friends would get no reception. Since getting here though, my phone is basically worthless at work. I get service in one spot in my office. I will come in in the morning with a fully charged phone and it is dead by noon because it is searching for a signal the whole time. It's not my phone because it can go the whole weekend without going on the charger. I'm switching to AT&T in Sept when my contract expires just so I can get reception at work.

GREAT service

Posted on: February 6th, 2008 by Ryan Badger

The good: Awesome coverage area, fair pricesThe bad: Crippling phones.Summary: I signed up with Verizon on a 2yr in Oct 2007 with a Motorola w385. So far so good. I have no major complaints about VZW and so far Im happy. The fact that they remove certain features from phones is disconcerting, but really can't do anything.
