Verizon Lies

I was promised 2 $400 gift cards from a Verizon agent over the phone and confirmed through Verizon text. After never receiving said gift cards I called and spoke to a supervisor who told me the agent flat out lied to me. This company has the worst customer service ever. Then of course they conveniently lost my phones I sent in and to top it all off a different customer service agent accused me of trying to just get credits.

I would be just as upset over the broken promises, RedxxQueen, as $800 is a lot of money! Let's look further into this. 


Per your screenshots, it shows the forms were submitted, and if approved, you'd get the cards in 3-5 weeks. Did you get any confirmation that they were received and the cards were approved? Do you have a tracking or confirmation of the returned devices? 

 

Please elaborate to better assist you.

No, I put the devices into the box sent to me and the carrier picked it up. I've never had an issue before, besides the agent verbally confirmed at least one received by the warehouse which is why she requested the gift cards. Since my account and bill has been messed up since the beginning and I've had to get credits for the constant over charging of my account now all of a sudden I'm being told you never received my devices and that the agent promising me the gift cards lied. This company is shady at best.

Very true. It happened to me too. I have been fighting with them since September 2020

 plus I never got my nurse discount even though I also have spoken to supervisors several times. This company is a joke!

Wow this response sounds so mechanical and yet somehow familiar, like "as a verizon customer myself" vs "as a proud veteran myself". Does someone actually write these responses or are they all computer generated? As a veteran who is married to a veteran, I also come from a long line of veterans never would they say thank you for your service. With that being said I find your claims of being a veteran very hard to believe thus further proving my original statement that verizon is nothing but lies, thievery and deception.

Did you receive any private messages through the Verizon Wireless Community forum from the VZW reps? Did you respond to them?

I've been lied to 3 times, given promotions only to have them taken away.  Can't hold the agents accountable for what they say because they don't document what they tell you nor give you a way to find them with you want to verify what they told you.

 

I'm stuck in a 24 payment plan, paying off a promotional phone that had the promo taken away.  As soon as its over I'm gone.  Verizon is awful.
