RedZone is not working!

I called Verizon and 5 times got disconnected due to heavy call volume.  At least that is what I assume.

I activated the redzone and now it is saying my order cannot be completed.  I have had it for 2 years and never had this issue.  The one time I did get through to VZ the recording said my order could not be completed because the appointment was not scheduled!  THERE IS NO APPOINTMENT!  I am activating the same RedZone that is part of my package.

Any help?

From @nflredzone : "We've talked to Fios, RedZone fans. There's an activation issue on their side (for some customers) that is being looked into."  This was 53 minutes ago.

The issues aren't just with Verizon, other cable providers are having the same issue.  We have fios, had a pop up yesterday to activate the Red Zone channel as part of our package and I did that, ours is working with no problem.  My guess is there are too many people trying to hit the NFL Redzone systems at once from multiple cable providers.  It's included in our cable package as well, but still had to activate it.

Finally talked with someone after 2 hours. Told the same as many of you: it's an outage not impacting all subscribers just certain ones based on their package. Was told a ticket needed to be created and left open to address the problem once the techs do their mass corrections. I am in southern NJ. No timetable for resolution and I would need to contact customer service to determine the credit aspect of the problem. This is just poor business.

90 minutes to activate when people and should have and should have been activated 32 to 3 activated 2 to 3 weeks ago. This is unacceptable from Verizon. I was given the excuse of the NFL season had not even started. Unacceptable

How embarrassing when you have a group of guys over and say "Hey lets see what's on RZ" and there is NO RZ!
