WEEK WITHOUT DIAL TONE NO REPAIR IN SIGHT VERIZON COERCIVE TACTICS

[creighon1]

Over the past 7 days I have wasted 123 cell phone minutes on hold trying to find out why I have not had a dial tone for over 7 days. The answer I received tonight was Verizon will not spend moeny on an antiquated copper system such as mine and I should switch to FIOS . Why would I switch to Fios ?  Because Verizon is coercing me?  There are 27 families in Kings Park without a phone for 7 days and the estimated repair time is apparently another 7-10 days.  How transparent is Verizon?? If hey refuse repair customers will be forced to get FIOS.  I have been a customer for over 25 years and have never been treated so poorly by a company.

Sorry you are having difficulty, an agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information or help you resolve your issue.
