We had a bad storm in my area today and my phone went out. It has been very staticy for weeks now but today there is no dial tone.My dsl works fine. I've replaced the noise filter and no change. I've used the test jack outside and no dialtone. Hopefully I can get help through here since neither me nor my mother have a cell phone so we would have to borrow one to call customer service.
Just a friendly reminder, this is a forum where users help other users. If you are having an issue with your Verizon service, you can use the Verizon Troubleshooter to fix and report issues with your Verizon Phone, Fios TV, or Internet Service, as well as to schedule a repair, here is the link:

You can find tools on the Verizon Residential Support page that may help you diagnose your issue:

I've been through those links and nothing helps. I want to contact an agent to help me and not that virtual assistant that doesn't work. All of the help pages are very unhelpful and I need someone to work with me. This is the last option that I currently have today since like I said I have no cell phone so I cannot call tech support.
Hi Giesenem,

Under "My Support Cases" you will find a link to the private board where you and the agent may exchange information. The title of your post is the link. This should be checked on a frequent basis, as the agent may be waiting for information from you before they can proceed with any actions.
