I received my prepaid welcome bonus visa card for $100, however whenever I go to activate it, it says.. you're over the 60 days, it's no longer available.  I already have it, why send if you won't activate.  False advertisement.  So twice we've called customer service, I sat on the phone with an agent for 45 min, she transferred and was hung up on.  A couple days ago, my boyfriend called, sat on the phone on hold for 35 min, and was hung up on.  Verizon has the WORST customer service I've ever dealt with, I mean, do they hire kids?  Constant problems with them.  Anyone else having this issue?

It's kinda hard to talk to a real person, when they constantly hang up on you.  And live agent is never available.

Hi Kleab79,

So  i guess im some one else experiencing this same issue. Which saddens me beause its been 4 years now. So they are CLEARLY having issues with this system. I havent been able to get it to work for DAYS now. I called the customer service number, only for the representative to tell me that  there was nothing she can do, and I needed to wait  for more days after to call again.. This is a mess.

Has anyone ever gotten an answer to this problem of having a card without a pin? I too have a $200 card with no pin. I saw anwers saying to contact Verizon but as anybody who has ever tried to contact Verizon knows, its impossible to get a live person. Its like saying please contact God for your pin number. Its definately a scam that should be reported to get people to sign up.
