Accessing account while overseas

I cannot access my Verizon account while overseas. When attempting to log in, I provide both my user id and password, and when it comes to the step to receive a security code (through a text message), I am instead told "Someone is trying to access your My Verizon account."  Yes -- that would be me!

When I click on the link within the SMS that appeared on my cell phone, I am told this:

"Sorry we are not able to process your request at this time."

What's the deal?

We want to help you with your concern. If you're trying to access your account from a browser, have you cleared cookies? The SMS sent is standard procedure as secondary verification to access the account. ~Peter

I have this same problem right now as well.  I am in Europe and suspended my service until I get back to the United States because where I am basically has zero service.

The support specialist never told me I wouldnt be able to log into my account due to the SMS Authentication PIN VERIZON is requiring for me to log in to the account after I enter my credentals.

I cant even login and talk to someone on chat! I cannot see my bill.  Will I not be able to re activate my phone until I physically am back in the United States and vist a store?

This is unacceptable.   I WANT ADSISSTANCE NOW.

I had the same problem when I tried to access Verizon Support features. I got a "Not available at this time" error message on the website.

We are here and ready to address your access to MyVerizon both domestic and international while you travel.  Your connection matters.  Thank you for providing details.  The path to get additional information is to get to a secure channel so we can look at account details that would include the device, plan, usage, features (provisioning). Please respond to the Private Note that will follow to get started.

I’m currently in Korea and also having trouble logging into my account! This is super frustrating as my UNWANTED Verizon Cloud trial ends on the 21st and I have to cancel it before then if I don’t want to get charged $19.99 for a service I neither wanted or used. This is unacceptable. Please let me know how to login into my account abroad so that I cancel it.

Hi Verizon,

I am having the same problem. I am in Korea and unable to access my account because I need my phone to receive texts in order to do so. It is very FRUSTRATING!

I want to pay my monthly balance because I’ve been receiving threats from Verizon saying my case will go to outside collections if I don’t pay. Well, how can I pay if I’ve been abroad all this time without being able to access? This is ridiculous.
