8 Year Long Customer Reviews Verizon

I couldn't find a place to write a review but I saw others doing it on here. I have been a Verizon customer for 8 or so years and the last 4-5 years have been awful. Verizon has some of the worst in-store, on phone and online customer service I have ever experienced. The call quality is not superior anymore either.  I am unsure if its a location issue or Verizon issue but the instore agents lie about discounts, sales and prices as well as adding charges to your bill without your consent.  In the past I have requested lines to be removed as well and lines were never removed. Today I  was told I would receive a $25 loyalty discount, which is great! Once I got off the chat with the agent he changed it from $25 to $10. I then got back on the chat and have been told I don't qualify for a $25 discount, even though the agent offered this. I am 2.5 hours into this chat with customer service and they refuse to honor their discount THEY OFFERED.  At this point I guess they'd prefer losing a 8 year long customer rather than honoring their original offer. Supervisor Ryan and his team with the online chats have been awful. I have been tossed around to 7 different agents, agents just ending the chats with no resolution. Verizon is a joke.  They charge double the cost and for what??? ATT offered me the same plan for over 50% less. Verizon has opened my eyes and I'll be taking 8 years of loyalty else where.

Ryan has already done this and wont honor what the 1st agent offered. Verizon would rather lose a customer vs honor a discount their agent offered. That doesn't even begin to make right the TERRIBLE customer service I've received today and over the years. It's mind blowing Verizon treats long term customers this way. And its not just me, I am seeing soooo many similar reviews online from long term customers with similar experiences.

These customer complaints are spot on. My bill keeps going up and up and up and they are just like oh I am sorry. They used to honor when you were a long time customer now you are punished.

I have the exact issues. Bill keeps going up with no clear answers. Now I find out my 2 lines are on separate plans and they are taking one of the discounts away from one because it is not being offered now with "that" plan. Both of my numbers have always been on the "grandfathered" plan. Surprise!!!! Not anymore. Now, I get to pay additional $ to have paperless billing AND auto-pay.  Magical way to increase without getting approvals.

 Call today and asked why my bill went up. I was told everybodyโ€™s bill is going up. Pay the bill or go to another Company. As a Disabled Senior Citizen on a fixed income this concerns me that Verizon only cares about Money and NOT a 7 yr customer. Think twice people before using Verizon Service or Products

They truly are spot on. Iโ€™ve only been a customer for 3 months and EVERY month I have to contact in reference to my bill, which they can never explain where the fees are from. They just promise to fix the issue (said to pacify) only to charge you additional fees the following month. Just canโ€™t make this stuff up.

Which company did you switch to?

They NEVER EVER offer discounts for upgrading, Ive had my phone for 5-6 years now bc I canโ€™t get a dang  decent discount unless I have the highest cost unlimited plan plus they make you trade in devices on top of that.
The Verizon up rewards was actually somewhat decent before they changed it this last time, and Iโ€™d imagine bc customers actually benefited from it to a degree. So they changed it again rather quickly claiming  it will b better than ever๐Ÿ™„

Once I get my daughter and husbands devices paid off Iโ€™m switching to another company. Canโ€™t wait.

I have the exact problem. It was the worst decision of my life to decide to start with Verizon to begin with. The service was terrible. I have issues with Wifi calling while being abroad and they just refused to fix it and โ€œofferedโ€ me another service with extra cost. The problem was with the line and Verizon and they wanted me to pay extra for that. Now I couldnโ€™t even use my line that paid almost 100 for it. We called them a few times and each time was like 3- 4 hours. Hope no one made the same mistake of choosing it like i did.
