Is there an email address that we can send general complaints about FIOS service? Some place to vent frustrations? Complaints like being on hold for a minimum of 20 minutes (if you're lucky - I've been on hold for up to 3 hours waiting for technical support, average is 40 minutes), internet cutting in and out, loss of service because they decide your equipment is too old and you have to buy a newer model tv/computer/phone/etc., sending advertisements with deals that provide twice the service I'm getting at half the cost but I can't do anything because I'm stuck with 11 months on my contract. The technicians usually are wonderful people and very helpful - it's just spending hours on the phone waiting for them that is frustrating. I am usually so angry by the time they answer that I start the conversation by apologizing for being crabby and that I know it's not their fault but that I'm on the verge of bursting a blood vessel.
All I want is an email address where I can vent - I know verizon will probably send it straight to the trash file but it would make me feel better. I'm even considering switching to Xfinity, even though they have a terrible reputation for customer service and their products are not as good. I'm just so fed up with verizon that I'm counting the days until I'm free of my contract.

Thank you. I have had the same problem. Virtual agent is a joke, it just routes to sales of other products. There is no real service through verizon or this site.

Try contacting them via twitter.
I have found them to be quite helpful.
And typically respond relatively quickly.
They will give you a few things to try at first.
If you need additional assitance, they can open up a private chat.

Third try with tech support and back to customer service and back to tech support. Online help was useless and for trying to accomplish something simple. One hour and 20 minutes on the phone and counting for an extender(s) that Verizon should pay for after selling me a Quantum router that would cover the whole house - terrible and waiting to move on! If I extend my contract they will give me one free...LOL...not after this has been going on for almost a year. Frustrated!

Hey it looks like we have the same issue/complaint! Did you ever have success in getting a free extender? If so how did you go about it?
Thanks!

So you tell us to go to the Support Page. That is not helpful for a general complaint. It takes you on a do-loop of specific issues that are not related to making a GENERAL COMPLAINT! How do we get Verizon managment to actually listen to us. Although I have been happy with your service, that is changing, and, you have gotten so expensive myself, and more of my friends and neighbors are looking for other options. My number one complaint at the moment is email. I have stayed with Verizon a number of years and signed with you with email as part of that package. Now you dump us with AOL. I feel I pay you, not AOL, nor should I have to pay AOL for tech support. You did not lower the bill to take out no longer supporting us with email and the tech support with that email. I feel I am still paying you for that support and therefore you should have ensured AOL provided us Verizon customers WHO PAY YOU for the support. Again, if you no longer provide that support, why did you not lower our bill accordingling. AOL charges $4.99 a month. You should either pay that, or lower our bills accordingly!!! And I realize this is just a Forum. How the heck to I reach Verizon DIRECTLY to make this complaint!

I am just going to point out that Verizon owns AOL Mail and Yahoo Mail so you were just transitioned over. Nothing more. It was again transitioned not taken away.
the number to address your issues is 1-800-VERIZON

I called (not mention how long I wait), and chatted online by inquiring why my FiOS bill keep incresing in last five months since June, 2017, by each month, albeit that I was promised by Verizon that the price is fixed during the contract period. The agent points out the Verizon surcharge is increasing while the bundle price still has no change. She knew I pay one bill, and told me Verizon is not charity organization several times, meanwhile try to sell me new contract with $15 more per month by locking me in next two years with the same service. Both agents on phone and online chat show more energy to sell product or insult complaints, instead of resolve and report the issue. I'm a many years Verizon customer for both FiOS and wireless phone, and paid my bill every month for more than ten years. I believe I have rights to know why my bill is increasing every month, not just a single word of government tax. As a matter of fact, many items listed in Surcharges, not looks like taxes or government related. I wish I would get a satisfactory answer ....

On February 2, 2017 Verizon FIOS and Myself entered into a 2 years Contract. The contract stipulate that my price, my entertainment packages will remain the same. This conversation was confirmed by emailed dated Feb 8, 2017 that Verizon sent to me. Well that’s not the case now.
My last month bills was increase by $54. I called customer service on Dec 5 and the rep and supervisor review the contract and still refuse to honor the contract. They say they will release me from the contract because they can’t honor the contract. I imagined, if it was me on the other side Verizon would slapped me with all kinds of fine.
My question is why Verizon is refuse to honor the contract they signed with me.

I am assuming Astoria Queens, NY?
contact th3 Public Service Commission via phone or online complaint and include your contract for service and a recent invoice for the illegal increase.
this state agency will nail them to the wall.
And yes if you violated your commitment they would hit you with early termination fees and last months charges etc. contact this agency today. Provide proof and you will prevail.
Fios connects in NYC are under contractual obligations on Verizon there is also a local office in NYC that will hit them with fines and penalties. Contact city hall.
Good Luck

You can go here since you are in NY state. http://www.dps.ny.gov and either call the toll free number or file an online complaint. Calling is faster. They will contact Verizon escalations who will call the phone number you give the NYS Public Service Commission. So be available to receive the call back. They are very good.

I have had Verizon for over 20years and all I can say is their internet service has gone to hell!! I received notice 2 years ago saying our cable lines are going to retire so I have hung on hoping to get FiOS. I currently have DSL which worked great for 2 of the 7 years in my current location, but now my internet goes out three maybe more times a day. I have had the modem replaced 4 times, Service techs out 3 times and nothing has been done to correct the issue. I am very disappointed because I would sign up for Fios TV and internet and lose my other providers. What also stinks is you charge more for the crap service internet and phone with no speed or connection than I can get with a cable provider. I can no longer run my production company under this poor service you provide. I am going to move my phone, TV and Internet over to spectrum and pay 3 times less than what you charge for what I have. Verizon, your adds lie, Your service is awful, your ability to provide customer service is way lacking. The sad part is I have asked about when we are going to get FIOS and explained we all received letters stating this, that not one person in your office can answer the question. I keep getting "well did you sign up to receive notices of when FIOS will be available " comments. Sorry Verizon, you are losing a loyal customer and I know that many in my neighborhood are doing the same thing. So, go focus on your cell service and Screw the business folks and loyal customers who really did like your services. I think your priorities are messed up and you all need to restructure your business model to focus on the customer instead of just the quick bottom line. After all, as a business owner myself, the loyal customer are the true profit to sustain a company not the quick grabs. I am going to switch to a company that wants my business and is willing to provide the internet speeds to run my business. Hell, I can’t even watch a streaming video that is 1 minute long with out it buffering. SO long Verizon and good luck with your future customers, after all I see your stocks are starting to slip and I see more complaints against your company than any other service provider. BAD BUSINESS and I will never refer your company to anyone! Especially when for 7 years you advertised FIOS is coming and then 2 years ago send a letter stating that your retiring the copper lines. I am guessing it is your ploy to have most bail off your network so you don’t have to do the work. I am done with crappy service, Internet and phone from you!
