Reviewers Comments: When I first set up my Verizon DSL, they said they would ship me the modem
(which they did) and that my service ready date would be 6/12/2011. That date
came around and it didnt work so i tried troubleshooting with the included disc
and calling, but after over an hour of efforts, they told me the service-ready
date would not be for another week.
I waited another week, at which point it still did not work. I then talked to three
different Tech Support Reps on the same night in a series of call transfers, re-
explaining and trying various things to fix it. None worked so they said they
would have to send someone out to check the hard-wire connections to the
house.
I was rudely setup with an appointment by the person I was transferred to this
and I made sure I would not have to be present since it was during work hours.
They assured me the work could be done without me. Two days later, about 12
hours before they were scheduled to show up the next morning I received a
reminder phone call verifying that I WOULD be at the house when the service
tech came by.
I explained I had already verified clearly that I would not have to be there,
especially since the Network Interface device was on the first floor on the side
of the house with clear access at 4' above the ground. I had to argue with this
Rep that I had been with Customer and technical support for weeks over the
course of at least 10 separate phone calls and that this was really inconvnient.
They finally agreed and set it up without me being there. Over the course of the
time I had DSL, there were numerous outages, some on a daily basis. Very
frustrating and Verizon was never interested in adjusting my bill until I
threatened to change service or kept them on the line arguing for a long period
of time. Never again would I get Verizon DSL, internet, or cable |

Reviewers Comments: took ordering 4 times because there was some magic "problem" with my
order....over and over....after going through speaking to no less than a dozen
people over 4 days and 6 hours on the phone, order is placed. order arrives,
speed is HALF the promised amount, price is 50% MORE than promised, free
modem promo NOT APPLIED. I call billing to get it all straightened out, rep tells
me i'm wrong, the price i have is the only price available...psst verizon, tell your
reps to look at your website where the price is LOWER!!!!! I ask to speak to a
supervisor...VINDICTIVE rep gets angry that I ask for supervisor, places me on
hold for 30+ minutes...supervisor comes on the line and tells me the previous
rep CANCELED MY SERVICE and there's nothing she can do, I will need to RE
ORDER and wait for service to be turned on like a brand new customer....AFTER
i ship the equipment back.....WTF Verizon....you've lost a customer for life, i will
never buy anything from your company again. |

Reviewers Comments: I?ve had and been battling with Verison DSL customer service for almost a year.
The whole time that we?ve had this service, we have been charged for 2
accounts.
Every month, when the billing is directly withdrawn from our checking account,
we call customer service and it?s the same song-and-dance.
The customer service sucks. When we first started our service, we had nothing
but problems with connections.
They finally got it taken care of but the billing is a total scam.
In the remote area of South east Texas we live in, Verison is the only option.
Believe me, we have explored others.
But, my wife is in school online and we need a connection so we have to
endure the thievery.
Everyone I have talked to in this area that has had Verison has had the same
problem with the billing dept.
If you have ANY other options for internet service in your area, take them, even
though they may be more expensive.
It will be cheaper in the long run.
No agency, such as the BBB, will help. I?m sure Verison has covered themselves
there. |
