So for Christmas we replaced the 4 IPhone 13 Pro’s on our account with 4- new IPhone 15’s. Three of the four phones transferred and activated without any issues. My wife’s device, however, transferred, but could not activate cellular and kept given an error that said, unable to transfer service error code 4003 contact Verizon for assistance. my first attempt was waiting on hold for 30 minutes to get somebody in technical support. They tried for about 15 minutes and sent an eon to my number that I was talking to them on rather than my wife’s number which caused my phone to get disconnected and messed my phone up for about 30 minutes. no one ever called me back from Verizon. When my phone finally was working again this time I tried to chat method and after about two hours of chatting, they determined that they needed tier 2 support and said they would open a ticket and email me once the phone was fixed. I never got any emails so last night I called again this time they transferred me directly to tier 2 support and I was on the phone for over four hours and 45 minutes with them while they tried every solution. After almost 5 hours on the phone, they still were unable to activate the phone and told me they have to contact the IT department to force the activation. They told me that the phone would be activated within 24 hours, but the phone is still not activated. Does anybody have another number or somebody higher up that I can call for assistance?
Suncoast, my apologies to hear of your experience and help is here as I know how important it is to have a working phone to stay connected to everyone. Let's work together to resolve this issue. I see you stated they submitted a ticket for you? Did they provide you a ticket number? Please don't provide it here but let us know.

Yes. They did provide an escalation ticket number.
Thank you so much for meeting me in Private Message and for providing the ticket number. I do see the ticket is still open and currently being worked. I know this has not been ideal, but please allow our network/IT techs to work the ticket for resolution.
