Problems with email after signing up for 'keep my email'

I am really frustrated and need some assistance.  At the end of August I signed up with keepmyemail.com in order to allow all of my family members to keep their email address. A few days later I canceled the remainder of my Verizon services, and at that time confirmed that everything was all set with respect to keeping our email addresses.  About one week later all of our email addresses were "suspended" and being bounced back to the sender.  I could not send or receive emails.  

 

I spent numerous hours (at least 10) on the telephone trying to get a resolution.  I was transferred from one dept to another.  Bounced back and forth between tech support and the "keep my domain" dept.  Each person told me something different.  I was given all kinds of crazy excuses, from being told everything was set up correctly to I never signed up to keep my emails. I was told that only the people in "keep my domain" could fix it, but they told me only Verizon could fix it.   I finally got some it resolved on September 17th and all of the emails began working again.  Unfortunately, I was not able to get any info on what was done to fix the problem, nor was I able to get any info on what emails had been rejected.  The resolution was short-lived.  At the end of September all of our emails again stopped working.  When I tried to log on I was told "invalid username or password"  This time the bounce back message said the email had been "temporarily disabled".  I went through the same process again and again.  One person I spoke to promised me that he figured out the issue, but the person who could fix it was already gone for the day.  I was promised a return call the next morning - no surprise the call never came.  Some of the customer service folks were very nice, but not helpful - some were worthless.  One person even told me "there is no way to keep your verizon email address beyond 30 days" - he had no idea what he was talking about.

I have done everything that has been suggested -  spoke to tech support; spoke to disconnect team; spot to elite team; asked for supervisors (which everytime resulted in me getting disconnected); spoke to keep my domain support; tried online "fix my email", etc..  This has been an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE!

 

My family members and I have used our myname@verizon.net addresses for many years and in too many places to count.   What do I need to do to get this resolved.  Who can I contact via phone or email to get this resolved?

I'm having the same problem as everybody else here. I paid the annual fee to keep the email address. My phone number ported over to the new provider and my email account was suspended. I called 8008374966 as directed and was referred to {edited for privacy} which isn't a number for live customer service. How do I get my email address back. I tried to do everything right.

I'm happy you subscribers can relate to my fustration as well. I currently have the same similar issues for the last three weeks and I still have the problem.

Again for the 3rd week I’m unable to have full access to my account. Last week I called your tech to generate a temporary Id code and there was an issue generating the temporary ID code pin. I was suppose to receive a phone call within 3 working days, which I never did. It’s been over a week now with no response. I just called your tech with no luck….

I’ll I want to do is retain my @verizon.net email address(es) and order web hosting at the www.keepmyemail.com site. Which I can’t due to limited access level. I already had two tech share computer which they also confirmed an issue. Message: “User account is not eligible to complete order”

I’m so frustrated, I can’t understand why after 3 weeks and over 2 hrs. over the phone why I still don’t have full access to submit an order. I’ll I hear is I apologize….

I have generated so many trouble tickets within the last two weeks it’s ridicules.

web site trouble ticket is {edited for privacy}
