reap of
I had a contract with directv, account# 2014370343
i decided to discontinue my service with them because i was moving out .so i call to cancel it and they sended me the last bill with an early termination fee of $200.00, so i payed it off but after that Verizon send me another bill for 90+ dollar so i contact them and ask why they were charging me this money and they said that they provide me with a service so i had to pay since i knew this could afect my credit score, but i was not aware that direct TV provide me with phone and internet thru Verizon, but in my knowledge i only had a contract with direct TV not with Verizon so if they have any issue they should solve it with direct tv. know i have verizon after me placing negative credit on my credit report and i dont understand why they are doing this since my balance was $0.00 in both bill.

500.00 phone bill but never used the phone
I recently took my 15 year old Grandaughter on a 5 day cruise to the carribean. She did not use her phone or text while on the ship but it was left on for a short period of time. When we returned her mother had a$ 500.00 bill when we called to see what had happened we were told she should have turned her phone off. They told us it showed she had not used the phone but would still be charged because it was roaming. We are shocked Verizon will not reduce this bill.

Customer Service???
Verizon gave my phone number of 5 years to a new customer, 8 days to return my number. I got billed for the 8 days plus all of the services he ordered... over $250. I spent 10+ hours on phone, 10 rude CS reps. and 4 CS Spvs. later...still not resolved! they just HANG-UP on customers... No accountability! Public Utilities and Consumer Affairs complaints Filed! VERIZON = BAD BUSINESS

customer service
They do not have a number like 0 you can push to get directly to a person they make you sit through their menu options which make no sense. Also, instead of silence, they make you listen to that annoying verizon lady trying to sell you more verizon crap!!! People want silence when they are on hold!!!

I have been with Verizon for 5 years. At first there were no major issue since I just had a land line but everything changed in the moment I decided to subscribe to one of their bundle deal in January. I was on the phone several hours until someone told me that there was a residual balance that was not paid. I had told the Call center agent that my account was actually showing a credit on my end but the agent re-assured me I have a credit balance. Yesterday in the morning my phone had lost functions such as caller ID and long distance so I called in to report the problem. I was told that there was a hold on the account due to an unpaid balance and after trying to rationalize with several agents I was transferred to Verizon Financial. I was told that my active account had a $50 credit but my "other" (didn't know I had one since I called in originally to bundle my service) the balance is $70 and if I paid over the phone they could remove the hold. I decided to call back later and pay the $20 without disputing why for the previous 6 months there was a separate account and why I wasn't told or my service suspended. I came home at night and now the internet is not working neither. So got back on the phone and after been redirected from the voice message for about 1 hr I finally got a message that told me all systems were down and to call back the day after. So I called today at 7am was passed around as usual and at around 9:30 (I know 2 and 1/2 hrs) I was told everything was ok and I just had to contact the internet dept. and ask them to reconnect. After being transferred to the wrong department 2 more times I finally speak to an agent who tells me NO payments are showing up on the account, so, exhausted I ask to speak to a supervisor. After an additional 20 minutes waiting for a manager I am told that in order to have my service re-activated I would have to pay a bill of $180 for service for yet another...you guessed it...account I didn't know about:) and was told that if I don't pay it in 30 days this can impact my credit:) My advice, google up the amount of complaints about this company and really think before subscribing to any of their service.

won't listen to us
Our internet goes on and off all the time, and we really need a repair man to come here and figure out the problem to fix it for good. We called Verizon and arranged to have someone come out here on Monday. It's only Saturday and they came today while we were gone. The guy left us a message about how he couldn't detect any problems and what to do about the static on our phone. When my mom talked to them on the phone she just mentioned that static on the phone was a problem related to the internet going out all the time, but it was very clear what our main problem. So, not only did they come on the wrong day, they had no idea what they were supposed to fix.

Then she called Verizon customer service explaining what happened and that we need a repairman out here, but the dumb Indian on the phone just kept trying to walk her through the tech support/trouble shooting steps. Talking to those Indians is like talking to a freaking wall. My mom kept saying over and over that she did not want to go through the tech support because this is a recurring problem that needs to be fixed, and finally after about five minutes of them arguing, the stupid gupta transferred the call to someone that can arrange a repairman to come here, but the call got disconnected.

Verizon sucks so bad!

DSL/dry loop service
I signed up for Verizon DSL a little over 2 years ago. For the entire time, I had to call in about every month or more when the connection would drop out frequently and for long periods of time. They swore up and down that nothing was wrong on their end and would never send out a technician. Once they offered to when I threatened to quit the service, but they told me it would be almost 3 weeks (and I was going to be gone then). I called to reschedule a time for a tech to come out and they didn't put it in the system and told me it would be 11 days again, so I just figured I'd get new service and wait for my contract to expire (this was 2 months prior to the expiration date) rather than let them have the benefit of the early cancellation fee. They sent out a new modem once and it didn't change the problem and they once again tried to tell me nothing was wrong. HELLO!!! I don't have a connection, there is something wrong! Their service is pure crap. Every time I called, I spent at least 20 minutes on the phone, sometimes more than that just on hold! I encountered several dumb reps, reps who could speak as much English as a 4-day-old baby and reps who just didn't care about anything - never a smart one who cared and spoke English, though. I called on June 3rd to cancel my service. The rep, named Valerie (who they told me probably was from their AZ facility), told me that it was cancelled and I'd receive a confirmation email that day. Never received it. Surprised? No. She was rude with me and didn't seem to understand what was going on. I finally had time to block out an hour to call them today and see what was going on. They said she never put in the order to cancel my service. I'm pretty sure Verizon trains their employees to be crooked like that. After two years of being raped, I wouldn't expect them to start "loving" me now, right??!! So I got a confirmation number that my service was cancelled today. However, I still have to CALL BACK AGAIN to have them credit me back for the difference in days between now and June 3rd. Once again, I have to be the one to do the work to FIX THEIR MISTAKE. When did customer service stoop to this? I am now with a good internet company who fixes their own mistakes and compensates their customers for it - and they even gave me $50 for switching. So I guess half of that will temporarily be owned by Verizon, who I know will debit my account for a month of service they're not giving. Verizon never did anything good for me or even offered to fix their painfully stupid mistakes. They're a bunch of worthless, pathetic idiots and I will rejoice when their company goes down in flames someday. Good bye and good RIDDANCE, Verizon. You suck!

Verizon is a bunch of crooks. We signed up for bundle phone/internet/Direct TV package in December 2010 and they completely screwed up our account. They switched our phone number, unbundled the package and over-billed us for months. I spent hours, literally hours, on the phone with customer service reps who were at first clueless, then acknowledged their mistake, claimed they would fix it (or that they had), and lo and behold each following bill was still wrong. After canceling our account, we were forced to pay an early termination fee with Direct TV although it was Verizon who had not delivered the service/package they had sold us. Now Verizon is sending us erroneous, fictional bills of final amount due when in fact THEY OWE US A CREDIT. They have assigned us 3 account numbers, trying to make it as complicated as possible for us to unravel the piles of bills and ensuring that their customer service reps can't figure out what's going on because very few can access all 3 accounts at one time. I am now onto my second round of calls with a clueless Verizon advocate person which I'm sure will end up being useless. I am entering a complaint with the Attorney General's Office. If they are doing this to a lot of their consumers, imagine how much money they are stealing from us!

Residential
I just took out home service with Verizon. They sold me a piece of equipment that was needed to use there service. There sevice didn't work (i'm not in the covergae area but they turn around and charged me a restocking fee of $35.00 for a piece of equipment that I can't use and therefore have no choice but return. If the equipment isnt' returned they will not cancel the service. So Verizon is scamming the senior citizens. selling a service that doesn't work and then charging a restock fee of $35.00 for an item that cost $29.00

Incompetent
Just hung up after about 4 hours trying (with 4 reps) to verify pricing and technical details for FIOS "bundled" services.
Each time I called I was told something different, and never were the reps interested in hearing what the last said nor the quoted pricing.
Finally, after hearing too often that the "last person was wrong" I cancelled the order.
I felt that i could not trust them to know what their system does, nor what the configuration or technical requirements are.
