Verizon login spinning infinitely and chat not working

Hi,

I have been trying for 2 weeks to activate my new phone, but every Verizon agent I've spoken with cannot figure out why my phone won't activate.  I even stopped by a Verizon store and they could not find any record of my account.

I decided to try again tonight.  However, when I try to log in.  The login site has a spinning wheel and flickers every few seconds but never stops.  And chat has been unavailable for 2 hours with the message, "I'm sorry, but we're experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again in a moment."

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Tim

Today I wasted an hour and a half with Port Center staff.  They were unable to activate my phone.  I have not idea why not.  I was hung up on once.  And during the second call, the rep., Sasha, told me she would call back after she contacted "Tier 2".  She never called back.

How is it that Verizon staff don't know how to activate a phone?!

I am having a simular situation.  CHAT never seems to connect and I can't through on the phone. I was on hold for over an HOUR waiting for a real person. This is poor customer service for such a large company. I am contemplating going back to comcast, it least they answer the phone
