Verizon Domain Account

[doylemb64]

We terminated our verizon residential when we moved in March but retained our email accounts by paying the annual domain service fee.  Last Tuesday, I stopped receiving emails.  I can send, access, etc.. but have not received an email in over a week.

We have called Verizon at least 7 times and have spent hours on the phone.   The domains support desk says they can see the account but then transfer us to another number to get it unlocked and then those people say they can't help us without our residential phone number which was terminated in March.  We must have talked to twenty different people so far and the only people that get the issue can't help us - it's another departments responsibility.

My husbands account works just fine.  I have already sold my verizon stock and established a gmail account based on this experience but am completely perplexed.  I tried logging into the keepmyemail.com service but it doesn't recognize my account even though it still works to log into email via yahoo.

Anyone else have this problem?  Definitely won't be using verizon at my new place.

Similar Domain Account problems. I have tried for hours and hours to contact verizon billing to change my credit card to renew my YDS Domain Account.  They can't even find my account due to there being no phone number tied to it.

The 2 agents who found the account don't do billing. (they found it in MD but I'm in CA) Billing can't find it. The  {edited for privacy} guys find it fine but they say they don't do billing anymore.  GREAT, A BILLING OFFICE

THAT DOES NOT DO BILLING.

I have a bill dated Aug 17, 2014 saying my credit card on file will be billed $19.95 on 9/16/14  to retain Domain service.

As of today the bill is unpaid- I checked with credit card co and on My Verizon. I'm not surprized since the bank replaced

the card.   This YDS account is poorly linked to My Verizon. The Credit Card I updated on My Verizon can't be used since

there is a $0.00 balance. Also autopay is not set-up. Account numbers on My Verizon are phony - neither Domains or Billing use these.

I'm afraid my account is about to be cancelled, Help  No one at Verizon has emailed me at this email or the two verizon

emails on this account.

Help,  How can I pay my bill.

Hello,

I am also having the same or similar problems that you are describing. I am only now (after 5 1/2 hours on phone today getting passed around) beginning to get some feedback from    {edited for privacy}.

Try emailing to that address and and give them your account#, email address, etc. I think that is the only way you will get your problem addressed and hopefully resolved. They have responded to me within about 3 hours.

Most departments within VZ are not familiar with these accounts and just pass you around trying to help. It is my experience that VZ has had trouble being able to bill the Your Domain customers since its inception. Good Luck

[mdskier]

Thanks otthouse

 I'll try tomorrow to get it pulled up using my email address.

Account # is bogus. No one out side of the Domain office uses it.

Account # on My Verizon is not recognized  at verizon.

Thanks ElizebethS - I went to the profile page as you suggested. Added information.

Your Welcome mdskier,

Go to your Site Control account for Your Domain Services and log in to your account with your user name and password.

You will probably see an alert highlighted in pink saying something like"your account has temporariy been suspended with with limited capabilities"(don't panic yet) There was a link in blue that said "contact us". Click on that and you will see 2 phone numbers that will continue to get you to a lot of nice people who wont be able to help you with billing for these accounts, so don't bother with calling if you don't have too. There should also be an email address to domain services billing dept. use that and email them with your account #, email, name, etc. and let them know what you need done. They should get it taken care of and corrected within a few hours.

Keep good notes in a file with all of your Domain Svcs information because you most likely will go thru this every year. Domain Services does not actually bill customer directly. They are supposed to get paid internally from Verizon EZ Pay, but they have some type of payment error problems. They are not able to play well together for some reason, and it results in this scenario each year or so.

Good Luck

HORRAY !

THANK YOU otthouse   IT Worked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

                   Did you hear THANK YOU

Go to "site control" ( https://sitecontrol.domains.verizon.net/ ) then enter username & password. You can then change all kinds of stuff on your domain account; address; credit card; billing; orders; subaccounts etc.

Of course there were several fixable problems. My account was a dummy one (never used)  with no name, address, password etc. The username was a cryptic set of 8 letters I did not know..  All was easily fixed with several account reset emails to my verizon.net email.      It appears that all Domain accounts have a link to your site control account.

I WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST anyone with a Domain problem try your "site control" first. Use above URL to access site control.     This URL is not really posted anywhere on verizon pages. I dug it out at the bottom of 1 of multiple emails from the Domain guys.   I noticed 7 trouble tickets on my "Site Control" over past 2 weeks. All were marked "closed" with apparently no action taken. ABSURD. What a way to run a business.

30 or more calls to Verizon/Verizon Billing (I kid you not) over past 30 days got me nowhere. My account barely appears on My Verizon and is not linked to do anything on My Verizon.

On site control I renewed my service THEN it asked for a credit card. I'll get at least one charge. If I get 2 or 3 I'll fix that later.

ottthouse, not verizon, solved my problem !

I have been having the same issues since Sept. 17.  I cannot access my email on my macbook or iphone while I am in my house on my wireless.  I have called numerous times and have been told there were server issues.  I have tried to log into the site control but can't sign in there as my user name and passworld are not recognized.  I emailed my Domain to be told my account was suspended.  I called Verizon who told me my account was not suspended.  Nobody can seem to figure out who will be able to give my access to Site Control.  So very frustrating.  For now I am having my webmail forwarded to another email account.  If I knew if was going to be this much trouble I would have never kept my verizon email.  

[mastros]

I registered for a Verizon Your Domain account last year in order to retain my verizon.net email address. It has been and is currently working fine. My problem is that I have to update my credit card information and cannot log in using "Site Control". 

I can log into "My Verizon" just fine, (which is odd since I no longer use Verizon for internet nor landline) but not into SiteControl to manage my account.

Can someone please help?

Thanks for your PM Elizabeth! I look forward to hearing back from you soon. Thanks, Mike

This is a peer to peer support forums. The moderators cannot answer technical questions. For that you need to contact Verizon directly.

[mastros]

Okay, been there done that with Verizon. Guess I'll have to hope for help from a peer at some point. Thanks.

Greetings All - 

I, too, have had no shortage of problems with my Verizon email for nearly three weeks. Like others here, I am purely an email customer as I no longer reside in a Verizon coverage area.

The problem began with me not being able to receive Verizon email ANYWHERE. After 1.5 weeks of that I was finally able view my emails online, but not in Outlook. AND, in an attempt to protect their network, Verizon is blocking me from downloading any attachments OR replying to any of my email via the online system - SO IT'S PRETTY MUCH USELESS.

I have spoken with Verizon no less than 18 times during this outage. I have been bounced from department to department and have been provided no less than three different tracking numbers with a promise that somebody from Verizon would contact me within 24-48 hours to inform me the problem was fixed and all was well. I have yet to receive ONE LOUSY PHONE CALL.

I have had four remote host sessions where I grant Verizon permission to access my computer's settings. I did not mind doing this right up the point where, last Saturday, one of Verizon's agents DELETED ALL .PST FILES FROM MY COMPUTER AND INSTANTANEOUSLY KILLED SIX YEARS WORTH OF EMAIL. Try though I may, I have been unable to recover the file through multiple file recovery services or programs.

Perhaps most maddening of all is that the only way to reach anyone at Verizon is through their oversea's call center where once must speak with someone who barely speaks English and requires one to speak VERY slowly and spell out EVERY SINGLE WORD. I have literally had to spell out V-E-R-I-Z-O-N more times than one can count during this nightmare. Then, THEN - as if this isn't bad enough - the call center has absolutely ZERO record of your prior calls, has NO idea what the problem is, has NO concept of an email only client and, in general, NO idea how to solve a problem. BUT, you cannot speak with a supervisor or manager unless you agree to go through THE WHOLE DOGGONE STORY AGAIN!!! And then, you'll only get a supervisor or manager about a third of the time.

It is clear that Verizon does not give one tiny little bit of a hoot about me, and I am SO DONE dealing with their incompetence.  it is abundantly clear Verizon has chosen to not solve it in a civil and peaceful manner.

Can you please escalate this issue for me as well.

I have had no access to Verizon emails through outlooks since 9/17

All calls to customer service have gotten me nowhere.

I no longer have Fios, but kept the email account.

I spent an hour on the phone getting bounced around from technical support to billing and back, Friday 10/3 another hour today with tech support, billing, etc...still no resolution. They don't seem to be familiar with Your Domain and support@domains.verizon.net has told me they are simply an activations team and are unable to help me.

I printed every page of my registration process for Verizon Your Domain and the only two real pieces of information I have is a SiteControl Account ID "acctxxxxx" and a cryptic xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.verizonyds.net email address. I have no idea how that is supposed to help me.

I would like to retain my verizon.net email accounts but it seems less likely by the day.

I haven't been able to access my email via my mac or iphone from home on my wireless since Sept. 17.  I keep getting the run around from Verizon support.  I cannot log into site control.  It is as if my home has been blocked from using Verizon email for some reason.

Can you escalate my problem so someone can help me?
