Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 1,559 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently complained about poor cellular coverage in populated areas, unexpected high monthly bills, and unhelpful customer support lines. Many people mentioned experiencing frequent dropped calls, slow internet speeds, and persistent billing errors that were extremely difficult to resolve through normal service channels. Though some customers encountered major issues, a few reviewers were satisfied with specific staff members who provided polite and exceptionally helpful assistance. These consumers truly appreciated the professional support received in physical stores or when speaking directly with certain knowledgeable representatives who went above and beyond to help.

VERIZON IMPLEMENTED AI SUPPORT

VERIZON IMPLEMENTED AI SUPPORT. ONLY NO WAY TO CONTACT A HUMAN, IN ORDER TO DRIVE EXISTING CUSTOMERS AWAY. NO SUPPORT OR LOYALTY FOR EXISTING LONG TERM CUSTOMERS WHO HELPED BUILD THE COMPANY. NEW CUSTOMERS WILL ALSO BE DISAPPOINTED. VERIZON SHOULD BE APPLAUDED FOR DITCHING DEI, DESPITE IT WAS TO SCORE A NEW CONTRACT ITS STILL A GREAT THING THEY PUT BUSINESS OVER ANTI-AMERICAN / ANTI-CHRISTIAN IDEOLOGY FINALLY.

I joined Verizon on line and was told one price I would be paying and it has not been that price.
I didn't know that there is a Corporate Verizon store and a regular buy items store.
Went to a Verizon store to have my information transfered from my I phone I had with TMobile and was told by a Verizon person that I would have to pay 89.00 for the transfer service!!! Over all I am very sorry I switched from TMobile to Verizon.

Horrible customer service

Horrible customer service, spent 3+hours to try to get phone activated, was lied to about the phone not be 5g compatible, following day went to a corporate store, 2 hours later was told they can't activate, just wanted to sell me a new phone, employee was rude, and said she was upset she spent that long helping me, and was not making any money off me. I decided to buy a new phone, when I went to look at it, she said I can't because I didn't pay for it yet. The manager was no better saying that basically it was Asurions problem. I understand you are different companies, but I bought the insurance from you. If your going to sell it, stand behind what your selling, also wanted to charge me to ask questions. I will definitely be looking for a new wireless carrier.

Horrible company

Horrible company. Extremely disappointed with their service and customer support. Horrible network connectivity. Consistently lose network connection during non peak hours?! Management can’t even keep an appointment to resolve the issues. And this occurred 4 times! Highly unprofessional. During the year of extreme effort (on my part) nothing was accomplished. Several Managers were fired. Ongoing investigations into these issues have been conducted and several complaints have been filed with the FCC CONSUMER RIGHTS Advocates The state of Nevada attorney general’s office as well. I have never seen such an abomination as the dealings with these people! Extremely abusive considering the fact that they were well aware that I have a disability and they completely ignored it! They lie about everything and overcharge everything every time they say they will fix an issue it returns the next billing cycle and gets worse?! Didn’t credit the account for equipment purchase promotion. A MANAGER Lost my equipment and changed the agreement without any disclosures. Fraudulent business practices abound here. Run!

Watch out for Verizon Help!

Watch out for Verizon Help!! It looks like a place to sign up with Verizon services. After 15 minutes with Ai "chat" to explain how I connected it switched me to a site that wanted me (in very small print) to commit to 70$ subscription -- and all I wanted was a simple question -- How do I pay my bills!

The information I wanted from Verizon is actually free! I just had to find the right place -- which took a couple of attempts because Verizon seems to be divided into so many different divisions,
Dealing with System is very frustrating!!!

Customer for 20 years

Customer for 20 years. Prices continue to go up while service goes down. Disconnected my service in August and my account was locked before 30 days was up. Permanently deleted photos and videos and did nothing to help resolve the issue. Piece of shit company,

Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for wireless service.

Headline: Nightmare cancellation process, unauthorized billing, and zero internal coordination
I am writing this to warn others about the severe lack of internal communication and predatory retention tactics at Verizon Wireless. First, their internal systems or training are completely broken. I experienced a frustratingly inconsistent ability to access my own account between different customer service representatives. One rep would have no issue, while the next would claim they couldn't access or verify the exact same information, forcing me to start over repeatedly. Second, Verizon appears to deliberately delay and obstruct the account cancellation process. Despite my devices and numbers being fully paid off for months, Verizon kept them locked, effectively holding my equipment and numbers hostage to prevent a clean port-out and cancellation. To make matters worse, despite successfully completing the cancellation well before my monthly statement date, Verizon continued to pull automatic bank payments from my account without authorization. Navigating their phone system as a former customer to fix their billing errors is nearly impossible. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for wireless service.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. My $1000 Galaxy S21 in perfect condition that I mailed in for trade in, I never got credited. After a year of calling monthly and kept getting the runaround, I went to T-MOBILE where customers are valued. After a year of calling their Indonesian customer service line every month, they finally told me when the mail in phone was scanned, it didn't match the imei numbers submitted by the sales agent. Which isn't my fault or problem. Got screwed.

I got service 4 months ago

I got service 4 months ago. They added cloud which I told him I didn't want. they took my military discount off and double my bill within 4 months. And then they didn't do anything about it or refund me. Worst company I've ever been with. Don't waste your time

One Star is far too high

One star is far too high. Got roped into a special deal for Business, now I'm going on 3 days without a working phone. Their online help system was broken and wouldn't work for the employee at the stare. The grass is not greener, the grass is dead.

Horrible service

This service is suppose to be the best! Top of the line! At least that’s what I’ve always known but it’s actually horrible! Constantly losing service even in places I feel like I shouldn’t and I just joined a year ago and I hate it. I can wait to pay this off and move on. I actually left another company to join this provider and I’m so disappointed and dissatisfied. I actually didn’t have this many issues with my last provider even tho I was satisfied there either!

Pre Order horrible shipping times

This company sucks pre ordered a new phone the 2nd day pre orders dropped somehow was going to get the phone Oct 6, 3 weeks after release which makes no sense when you can get it release day in store but they offer no option to pickup in store to get it sooner. It then advertises on their website shipping is now september 22nd for people that purchase it right then but im still being told Oct 6th even even with a pre order on the 2nd day they dropped I should be in front of anyone that orders it after and is getting an eta of Sep 22nd. Horrible company that has everything all over the place. Don’t use them if you want to stay sane!
