Formal complaint
To whom it may concern I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding a deeply frustrating experience I recently had with Verizon customer service specifically concerning an unexplained issue to my account and the treatment that I received. I have been a loyal Verizon customer for over 11 years during that time I have consistently paid my bill on time...

Verizon’s customer service is one of the worst in the world. What they say is not what they do. You will not get a call back. You can escalate it to a supervisor and I’ll take care of everything promised you the world and never call you back eight hours on the phone over two days trying to get this hotspot fixed absolutely disgusting no callback and not...
Read full reviewCustomer service
I canceled my services with Verizon and my auto pay was still being charged. I call customer service multiple times to try and resolve this issue. The representatives I dealt with were not helpful at all. I was put on hold for long periods of time and when they came back they just repeated what was already said. I finally had to have my bank put a hold on my account so they couldn’t keep charging me for services I no longer was signed up for. I was customer for many years but will never do business with Verizon again
Recommendation: Look at all the providers that give the same services as Version but charge a lot less and are easier to deal with
Worst customer service on the planet
I wrote a similar review last week, only to have some suit call me and ask me what the problem was. I told him and he said he would get back to me with a solution. Haven't heard from anyone since and the solution is a pipe dream. On top of all of that I was disconnected twice from "customer service" when they were making headway on my problem. If we didn't...

I've spent 3 hours on the 3 reps, 2 on the chat, and one on a call. Never have i had a worse experience with anyone, any company, ever. And so i tried to order online, that was even worse. They put in my order before i was even done trying to add perks, additonal things like phone, internet, you tube. But worse of all, when I tried to order the latter and i...

I have never been able to access my internet only bill. It’s been auto debit for years.

WE have been VZ customers for years with excellent service. A year or so ago we added a WIFI box for $60 a month. I set up autopay and it worked for months. All of a sudden in October they failed to withdraw the $60. I started getting nasty e-mails, YOUR PAYMENT IS LATE. At first I thought it was spam. Then it kept on and I chatted. The chatter said all i...

I’ve been very dissatisfied with Verizon business service. I’ve been complaining since March 2025 when I change my service over from AT&T because of promises of Verizon to take care of every issue I would have and I’ve wrote letters to the Better Business Bureau. I’ve contacted customer service. I’ve made many trips to the Verizon business store, and they...

After having multiple service issues (dropped calls, having to leave my home and make a call from the end of my driveway to get a signal -- I live in a major metro area) Verizon offered a 'new' phone to replace my current phone (a relatively new Samsung model) in case it was an equipment issue. After I was clued into the fact I would be receiving a...
Read full reviewCustomer service
I recently stopped service with Verizon in June after 19 years being a loyal, on time paying customer! I received a bill for services dated September 18. Called to have it cleared up and after 20 minutes on the phone management approved 1/2 credit of the bill telling me if I didn’t pay $ 18.13 it would go to collections. This is just one more of many reasons why Verizon is failing!
Recommendation: Don’t use them. Network is over saturated; frequent delays with internet; hide behind AI and it takes 20 minutes to get someone on the phone who struggles to speak good English!
Poor attitude/ instore specialsts
I was directed to seek help at a verizon corporate store (11566, Sunrise Highway Merrick, NY) because I had trouble completing my order on the phone. Upon arrival they told me they couldnt help me and gave me a phone number. I told them I needed extra help and I was still told, "Sorry." The gentlemen then walked to the back to disappear from me. I sat at...

Bought 2 phones, bill was $85 higher-wrong. Took them back. Lost my license on trip but have 8 credit cards, Medicare, and bank card with my pic. Told me I could have stolen them and changed the pic. Really? Asked if I would go to DMV without license- duh no, really? Now I have to call the horrible customer service line. Had an appt but still had to wait. Truly an awful experience every time i go there.

Verizon has willfully violated my rights under the fair credit reporting act (fcra) by inaccurately reporting a charged-off account across all three major credit bureaus.

In spite of Core's rude treatment of me, I am moving forward because of you. Going out of her way to assist me in resolving the issue, Teri from Service Support was likewise outstanding. Throughout the process, she stood by my side and actively advocated for me to prevent the treatment I received from Core. I adore you!
If you really want to serve consumers and make a difference, Core, instead of ignoring me and not trying to solve the problem, you should get your act together and do what it takes to make customers happy. T-Mobile has much better ratings! You may need to take a problem-solving training course and people interaction directions. YOU DID NOT represent Verizon in a positive way at all.
This place and the people who work here are fantastic. I needed assistance with something, and they patiently waited for an hour as I tried to reach out to the core department for support. Kendrick has made Verizon's customer service in Riverton unparalleled. No matter what, you stuck with me until, and I quote you, "I'll stay with you until you are serviced and the problem is resolved." I also thought the floor manager was really kind and accommodating.

Verizon is trash!
Verizon is HORRIBLE!... I applied for a phone in 2018, they asked a 500.00 deposit, so I decided against it. They went ahead and issued a phone number even though I never paid the deposit and have added it to my credit report. I contacted the review department after several attempts to dispute this on my credit. The first lady I spoke with reviewed it and...

Read full complaintService
All year 2025 Verizon has not done anything to improve my service. The problem is at times I don’t receive calls, and the caller would have to text me whether it’s for business or personal i. e. death in my family. No problems with scammer’s though! In addition the old Verizon gave me loyalty & senior discounts; I’m 75. The new Verizon doesn’t really have a senior discount but gave me something, then reneged. Had to complain to them to restore. The bill is about $175 a month.
The interventions were terrible. AI text messaging which I refuse. When I do get a person it’s the same 45-60 minute thing which involves using my landline. In addition they never read previous notes, leaving me to rehash the issue, the “same” issue. When I discuss their abrupt increasing my bill it was like pulling teeth. They don’t care; poor service, high bill.
Desired outcome: I just want my phone that I’m still paying for since June 2024 to work.

Read full complaintVezion mobile wireless service
6/20/25 on the phone with Verizon for approximately 4 hours trying to correct the added services that were added to my bill you go for one person to the next and when someone starts to help than the line drop, I wonder way. My bill went from 106.17$ to 190.00$. There was all kind of things added to my plan that I did not authorize (like Netflix and max a protection plan and much more, my senior discount was removed). I could not get anywhere. I have only 2 phones on my plan if I was to get 4 phones it would owned be 120. I have been put on hold and disconnect many times. It’s a nightmare. And there is a contract and senior discount texts and emails. They refuse to fix it.
Also when I was ordering the phone I waited a week and they didn’t come and I was quoted the wrong amount(4 hours on the phon again). When I call back after not receiving the phones and 4 hours to get to someone that could help and come to find out that the first guy was lying and never put In the order. It’s been a nightmare. I know everything is recorded so there is a record.
Claimed loss: Not only am I losing money every month but I will be forced to change phone services. It a nightmare
Desired outcome: Put my bill back to what it should be, do not add any services that is not asked for and improve customer service. And return the senior discount that was promised.

wireless phone replacement
It involves my communication with Verizon Representative, ASH, who I thought was knowledgeable and professional regarding the need to replace my inoperable cell phone. I explained the urgency of delivery as I live with 2 /95 yrs old parents and must have access if any emergency arises.She had promised it would be sent overnight .I have paid for ASURION insurance monthly.tI would arrive today, 3/31/25. Today, I use the tracking info, and she DID NOT overnight the phone! UPS claims it will be delivered a week later on April 7, 2025.Waited for over an hour when I call and spoke to SUPV KAYA, who just apologized and basically did nothing! Verizon lied and gave me inaccurate information!
Now almost 4 hours on the phone with absolutely NO solution provided! how do they get away with this?
O
Desired outcome: delivery as promised!

Tells me I need to add more money when I DO NOT. Customer service is VERY rude and makes you out to be the bad guy. They WILL steal your money, then try to cover it up.

Customer service
Ive ben locked out of my verizon wireless account for maybe 3 years now.

Trying to use the stupid app to help me with my issue which to many failed login attempts Im locked out of my own account which when im trying to get a live agent to help it keeps saying I need to loging to get started which I keep telling them I cennot log in im locked out this app is useless

Total by verizon
ELEVEN TIMES over two days I called them. Only to have the issue continue on through today. Absolutely worthless CS. My dog could do better.
A company so good that they told me I wasn't a customer. Funny.. but total by verizon is what it says on my bank statement.
Done. I'm gone. Tmobile was able to save me $15 on two lines. Total by verizon = $75/month... tmobile =$60/month
Total has the WORST customer service in prepaid mobile history. The CS reps actually do NOT give a crap about your device working. They only care to get you off of their support line.
If I can only have one wish, I pray that LIGHTNING STRIKES EVERY SINGLE TOWER owned by the POS company owned by verizon. Thanks alot for your CS. And F you!
Claimed loss: 1800

Mobile phone service
I went to Verizon they advertized Free Phone's! There is nothing free about it!
I traded in a phone worth $750.00 and received a free phone or so I thought.
My monthly bill started at $73.00 within six months it increased to $94.00 a month when I called about the increase. I was told all the promotions ran out I was never told about any promotions being applied. So, knowing that way too much for one phone line and that there was no contract.
Except for one small thing, the phone I recived was only free if stayed with Verizon for three years. I guess that's the way they get around saying NO CONTRACT. I had to pay the free phone off to the tune of $776.00 to switch to another provider. The provider I switched to was less than half the price of Verizon. When I called Verizon about the phone I traded in and asked for the phone or to be compensated Verizon told me they owed nothing. In other words, they cheated a customer.
Claimed loss: $750.00
Desired outcome: $750.00 for the phone that was so called traded in.

Read full complaintUpgrading phone
On 2-17-24 I went to the Verison store located at 4801 S Padre In Corpus Christi Texas. I already had everything ready to go because I pre ordered the phones. When I ordered the phone I was told the store would transfer the information from 1 phone to another, I was trading 1 phone in so I would have to leave it there when I got the new one. I was advised by the store manager and another female employee that this was going to cost $29.00 per phone since I was getting 2 phones.
I asked why because when I changed from another carrier it was done for free, I was not told this when I ordered the phones. I asked the manager to cancel the order, she said she did. When I called Verison they advised me the order was not cancelled bit the person I was on the phone with made sure to cancel it.
I'm very disappointed with Verison and I will never go back to that store again. I contacted another Verison store at 5634 Saratoga in Corpus Christi and they told me I could not pre order the phones and that if I did I would still have to pay the connect fee when Verison said they would wave it.
If this is the way Verison stores are going to treat their customers I will be looking for another carrier.

Verizon wireless
I asked to have my account researched because i never received proper service from Verizon Wireless the entirely of my service duration with them. Instead of receiving a call with a resolution my service was cut for non- payment when i already had a different phone service provided. Which has been an excellent switch.
I do not owe the balance reported against me as My son & I never had proper service. We couldnt even call each other without issues and calls never went through properly. Research the bill and service period snd you will see that you actually owe me. I will sue if it comes to me defending myself further and report you to the Better Business Bureau and Consumer Affairs
Claimed loss: More thsn $300 dollars
Desired outcome: Removed collection action against me and refund of money for improper services and lack of phone services provided to me & my son’s iphones.

Verizon fios
Hi I called and added Verizon Fios to a land line only plan on 11/25. Order number is NJ11950774489. I was on the phone for approx 2 hours (forget the name of the person I was speaking to) and she was experiencing a lot of computer issues. I found a black Friday deal that said I would get a 200 Amazon gift card with the new services. I asked her when I would receive it and she said it would come via email and to be on the lookout for it. I've been checking my emails and haven't seen anything so I called to inquire about it. The lady I spoke to was very nice but said there's nothing on my account about the gift card. I know all calls are recorded. Is it possible for someone to pull that call and listen to it? You will hear that I was promised an Amazon GC. Not sure if her computer issues has anything to do with it not showing up on the order. Thank You. Paula Coldon [protected]@gmail.com
Desired outcome: I would like someone to pull the original call on 11/25 - you will hear that I was promised a 200 Amazon Gift Card

Firing my son for saving my life
I ended up on life support and my son is my power of attorney for when I am not capable of making my own medical choices. Well some guy named Matt from the Houston/ Springfield area fired him and said his doctors note was false and even said he called the hospital that I am at right now asking for my Surgeons assistant and he was in St. Louis today. This guy named Matt was trying to get my medical records and even claimed to be my family member which I have no clue who this guy is. Well news flash to everyone in the Houston office area. I am still here and was just pulled off the ventilator last night and I have had 2 heart attacks and 1 stroke and told I will not see my birthday at the end of this month. My son saved my life by keeping me on the ventilator to see if I would start breathing on my own and you fired him. There's a thing called FMLA and you think the paper is false by calling and pretending to be my family and lying to them wanting my information. Both doctors told me how you harassed my son the entire time he was here and he couldn't catch any peace because of you. Well I am a worker for the state of Missouri and I know some laws that you do not. When you call and lie about you being my family to get my medical records, that my dear is a major lawsuit. You fired my son for no reason and I have the medical records from my surgeon and even the power of attorney papers and what all my son had to sign and even heard how hard he was praying for me to make it. They told me he couldn't even cry because you Matt was being a bother and now I'm going for gold. I'm pressing charges for you number 1 lying about being my family for my information. Then you lied about the paperwork being false. Wrong again. In Missouri FMLA is real and now I'm going to sue the entire company for damages and stress on me too. I wake up to have your name even in my night nurses conversations because you want more.
Claimed loss: My son is missing the money for his family. Then wanted to know my medical records. Here they are. I'm dying. I'm 42 mom of 3. A nana of 5.
Desired outcome: Yes he called and yes he lied. I'm pressing lawsuits and I have my attorney on this already. I want my son paid and if I have a heart attack and die because of Matt I want him fired!

Matt from the Houston/Springfield offices is the worst person I have ever known and I do not know him. He fired my son because I was ventilated due to congestive heart failure and renal failure. I also had 2 heart attacks and a stroke. Matt called my son a liar and the doctors both informed me the entire time I was under anesthetics and incubated, Matt harassed my son and was fussing at him for a doctor's note. Then Matt calls here at the hospital wanting to speak to the assistant of my surgeon and he is in St. Louis at Barnes Hospital and he claims that he doesn't even work at the hospital where I am at. My son had no time to grieve nor could he answer questions because Matt would not stop. He even lied to the nurse here on the floor stating he is my family and was wanting my medical records. I do not know this dude whatsoever. I can say this I'm so glad that the phone numbers are recorded and the nurses take every single call very serious because both doctors are willing to testify against Matt in court and now my attorney is not happy about this. So my son get fired because I made him my power of attorney just in case I couldn't make my own medical decisions and he loses his job because of some lying fake worker that done nothing but gave my son hell. I called wanting to speak to someone in corporate and I was told nobody has and phones in corporate at all and it's only 1 email. Until last night and I told the worker what Matt done and and how he tried to get my medical records without my permission. Anyone who has been fired from this joke of a place because of a family emergency, it's called FMLA and your rights as a worker and a human is to be able to have that and not get fired and you don't have to give notes to the wannabe. Since Matt has decided he was going to be a smarty pants and try to pull some crap. I have lawsuits being filed today and I'm going for Russell and the rest of the bunch there. My son didn't deserve to be fired because he was here with me and you had no right trying to get my medical records with your lies. You need help you liar! I'm not stopping unless I'm dead or Russell and you no longer have your dirty fingers in this joke phone store. Matt and Russell I cannot wait until you meet me in court. We have to call the labor board back today and my attorney is filing all the paperwork in an hour.
We have received your comment. Thank you!
