Been a customer for 25 yrs even though they tell me 17yrs when I call, already a fail. I have spent well over 70,000 with this company in that span of time, always upgrading, always buying. I added my fiance about 13 months ago and bought her a phone. When I was there, I told them to set her phone up exactly like mine with the same extras, hot spots, ultimate best plans, and insurance. Middle of Sept a year later, she steps on her phone bends and breaks it. They tell me I am out and need to buy a new one. I said, look at my account I have always had insurance on every devise for 25yrs, I wouldn't not do it and I requested it. I suggested they use my insurance on my phone to satisfy me even though she broke a 14 I had a 13 but satisfied my need for a phone. I was told to turn off my find my iphone until hers gets here to "trick" the system into thinking it was lost and I reluctantly did so. My phone was lost/stolen a few days later at work and showed up missing five minutes after I had it. If find my iphone was on, 100% believe it would have been found as I have an iwatch. I decided to order a new phone when I found out it was 279.00 deductible because it was lost with the insurance over a 100 bucks if I had the phone still. Phone was on backorder and it wouldn't come till late October. Four days after I ordered it, they sent a confirmation that no one said I would be getting in my email, that I rarely look at. I get texts to pay my bill from Verizon, when specials are available, ect. No phone call, no text, they just cancelled my order. I had to discover this four days before my phone was promised to be at my house. I called Verizon and get a supervisor, he assures me my phone is now, on the way. I get no text, no calls, no emails as I am looking for anything that confirms my order as now I am suspicious to their integrity and being told the truth. I look at the status of my order and it still says cancelled the next day, even though I was told the supervisor corrected this. I was working out at the time and super frustrated as to how I could be so lied to. My backup phone falls out of my pocket as I am lifting and the screen and camera get smashed by the dumbbell I was using. Phone still worked for calls but the camera and FaceID were inop. I called Verizon after getting ready for work to find out my phone did not ship again even though a supervisor said otherwise. I get to another supervisor, Joshua, who, quite honestly is the only reason I am not already a Tmobile customer. He explains that now my account is under a "high fraud" level and we need to clear that up before another order can be made. So, I get the fraud dept of failed customer service. I am told that I need to use, and can only use my phone and take a picture of my drivers license to send them in a special link they send. Mind you every time I talk to someone they are sending a link that gets me to them to allow them to talk to me! However, as I said, camera is broken. Frustration is at a high and insisting there has to be another way to do things, they say no. Can't use another phone or email or use existing photo. The only thing I can do is go to a location specific store and clear the identity issue. After 3 plus hours on the phone I caved and drove an hour plus waited for an hour to be told my account was on full lock down and deemed fraud! I am baffled and angry, there is zero fraud other than the customer service I was getting, called back again. This time I finally got a fraud supervisor to help me and clears the fraud issue and says, you are good to get your new phone. I asked very clearly and very skeptically are you sure? He said yes. I asked if the call was recorded so that this is documented, again, yes sir. I ordered my phone for the third time, paid them money, and got a confirmation email. Felt this time I was taken care of. Again, after every thing I was still not 100% and about an hour later I pull up my order and it went from accepted to pending. It wants me to upload my ID! I CAN NOT! MY CAMERA IS BROKEN! I call Verizon and speak to another supervisor because they can't get me Joshua on the phone. Explain what I see and he assures me again, my phone will be there no later than 12pm. Ya all will be shocked... IT DID NOT AND IT GOT FLAGGED FOR FRAUD AGAIN!!!! I can't believe how many times I was over promised, under delivered.... just straight lied to! So this is my question to you all as customers, because I know I can't rely on Verizon and their faud customer service, would you stay with this company after every thing I went through? They say I have 30 days and they say the phone will be here tomorrow. I can still return it for that 30 days. Tmobile offered me a iphone 16 pro max 256gig for me and my better half for the same price as I am paying for one phone with Verizon with about a 20 less a month bill. I clearly am super loyal being here for 25yrs, but I just have a problem with lack of integrity and flat lying to appease me. What would you do?
