I'm so fed up with Verizon's terrible customer service. My DVR started going out last week. I figured that now would be a good time to get the new 500gb DVR that all of the new customers get to have. After several long calls with "customer service" they said that I could pick one up from the local store (which is a 30 minute drive). So after calling in the morning to make sure that the boxes were in stock, I went down there. They refused to give me the newer 500gb DVR, instead giving me a 120gb DVR.
When I got home, I called customer service again three more times. The third time, the customer service agent put in an order for a new DVR, promising me that I would receive the 500gb box. Guess which DVR they sent me? The 120gb DVR!
Again, I called customer service, got hung up on, called back again and was unable to speak to a supervisor. They also claim that they have no control over which DVR they can send. That's so ridiculous.
I've had it. I pay waaaaaay to much and have been a loyal customer for over 4 years. I don't even get the 25/25 internet speed that I'm paying for. As soon as my contract is up I'm switching to Time Warner or AT&T. I know their customer service is much better, and at least I'll be able to use a faster wireless router.
Good Bye Verizon. You're way too expensive for how you treat your customers.
