1. I went to this store because they had such high reviews. Unfortunately, my service was DEFINITELY NOT 5 stars. I spoke with Ben about getting a iPhone 15 Pro Max. He didn't have any in stock stock so he ordered one. I waited until the end of the week when he got back in the store and my phone would have already arrived. I called in the morning to make sure the phone came in. He said it had, so I drove the 30 minutes to get it. When I got to the store we started the process and he realized he had the regular 15 not the Pro Max. He called another store to see if they had one and suggested I could there. I wasn't happy with that idea as I had already driven to that store and waited 4 days to get it. He went to get it (which took another 30+ minutes). Once everything was set up, he said I got a FREE screen cover which he put on and a FREE phone case. I didn't need the phone case so he said I could pick out one of the charges instead. I proceeded to pick out the "free" charger and then saw the printed invoice that I asked for. The "free" charger and "free" screen case COST $199.99!! I told him that I didn't want any of them and he said there was still an activation fee. I just received my bill from Verizon and I was charged activation fees. I called Verizon and they said that his fee wasn't any type of activation fee. That this store was not a corporate store and they can charge whatever they want. Buyer beware of the Device Payment Promotion - You are NOT GETTING ANYTHING FREE. They use the term free and don't tell you are actually paying $200!!
2. HOURS LATER, I finally went home with my new iPhone and Apple watch. Once home, all of the sudden my old Samsung watch rings. Apparently, he didn't set up my new Apple watch right! I have to drive another 30 minutes both ways to have him set up my watch again.
3. I gave them my Samsung S21 phone in to get my $800 trade in credit. I look on my Verizon bill and it is not there. They said they never received the phone from the store. I called the store and they said that they wait until they have a load of them before they ship them and that I should wait another month or 2 before it shows up on my bill.
4. I've tried multiple times to call the store to discuss my dissatisfaction and I get no answer and voice mail has not been set up.
5. I found the name/phone number of the District Manager Mike S. at (608) 5[phone number removed per the Verizon Terms of Service] from another review and left him a message. I hope he will be able to resolve my complaints above.
