I have had nothing but a negative experience with Verizon. From the bill not reflecting the proper discounts to my phone exchange going from "lost" to "found" after four months. Now, I barely receive texts and phone calls. Instead, it goes directly to voicemail OR I receive the messages hours, or even DAYS, after I was supposed to receive them. I am supposed to have 5G coverage and am in a "Dark Green" area (Forest Park, IL).
I was having the SAME issues in Louisville, Kentucky. This isn't a "location problem." It's a service/provider problem who claim to have amazing coverage and does not, in fact, have that coverage.
I am contemplating going to Google Fi after this experience and the train wreck that was the exchange of my phone/incorrect billing. Almost $100 for one line with unlimited data/text/talk that I can't use? No, thank you.
