No dial tone

I have went thru the automated service 7 times. I have unplugged all units in the house and went to the DSL wiring box outside and disconnected the DSL side, then hooked a known good dial phone up, and had NO NOISE AT all on the system. My DSL Intrenet works fine, as I am posting from it.

THE STUPID computer automated system will not LET me tell it this. It just goes thru the troubleshooting loop each time.

Can't Verizon afford a human being to talk to people like me?

Maybe the local all inclusive cable company can do better.

The problem is DEFINITELY outside my house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm having much the same problem. I have had problems for the past six weeks, starting with internet that went in and out. Two different technicians have been to my house and found solutions. None has been permanent. Now I have no dial tone.

Going through the recording of a phone message takes forever and someetimes I get cut off. The online reporting doesn't work. It doesn't take you to step two,

I finally found a live chat and someone set up a repair appointment for me ----- Sunday from 8 until 7. Then changed it to Monday from 7 until 10. I was trying to check to make sure and lost contact. When I got back to live chat, I was told they couldn't make appointments. Apparently the first chat had been a sham. No, that was the second chat of the day. The first told me the problem was in my phone so I went out to buy a corded phone and try that. No luck.

Also, the technician left a number I could call locally. I did so . . . twice in the last two days but no reply.

One of my friends went through something like this and changed companies, but we don't have much option where I live.

I am having the same issue, I keep getting stuck on the self repair loop, i have repeated the steps over and over, switched to a new phone,etc... then it occured to me I do not work for Verizon. I, instead pay them every month for the service I am not receiving. I'm going back to dish network and a cell phone only.
