I live in Provo, Utah, near Salt Lake city, so I assumed I wouldn't have an issue with getting fast data. The data plan is supposed to give you 4G LTE data if the network is not congested. However, after my first day of service, the network must have always been congested because I never once (not a single time) had 4G LTE data. Most of the time my data was 3G (not even 4G), and sometimes it was even 1-2G. It was very very slow. After a month of service I cancelled and switched to Cricket. If you want a good phone provider, that is not only a little cheaper but that almost always also gives you 4G LTE data (I don't think I've ever not had 4G LTE data yet with them), then check out Cricket. It's a really good service.

We upgraded our Verizon plan and… We upgraded our Verizon plan and customer, without asking, service rep offered us 2 new iPhones in exchange for our current iPhones. We agreed to transaction, Verizon charged our credit card for the tax, but would not ship the new phones. They put the shipment on hold. Told us to go our nearest Verizon store and complete the deal. The Verizon store would not honor the deal. This is fraud. Still waiting for credit for the tax charge. Verizon customer for over 20 years. UPDATE, finally able to talk to a supervisor, who is honoring the original agreement and crediting us for the inconvenience.

same problem over and over When there is a problem it is almost impossible to TALK to someone...you have to deal with typing back and forth with someone who tries to help (and it can take a long time to get someone to help you in the first place). I have had Verizon for over a year and they still keep billing me for a phone number that isn't mine. I have been back and forth with them and they tell me it is fixed but future bills have the wrong phone number again. I came to Verizon thinking they would be better than Cox but I never had these continuing problems with them so I am probably going back to Cox when my contract with Verizon is finished. It's a pain in the neck to switch back but I think it's better than dealing with Verizon month after month trying to fix the same problem.

Antiquated, malfunctioning website Verizon is a big name in the industry, but the service is anything but. For a reputable TECHNOLOGY company, they do a horrible job of having an infrastructure setup for long time customers having an older phone. They actually sent me a text saying that I would only receive 4G when it's not too busy, and would receive 3G the rest of the time. They did something that resulted in me being no longer able to use my phone for a hotspot. Consistently takes an unusually long time to receive an sms message, let a lone an mms message. I am getting dropped more frequently. All of the above likely due to my comment about them delegating older phones that long time customers may have, to the back of the bandwidth line. On top of all that, their website looks like something from the 1990's, and so many bugs and malfunctions with the functionality of it. It's as if they have no QA department that tests it before deploying it to live production. All that, and they are still the most expensive cell service provider. To be fair, there coverage is still one of the best if not the best of all providers, and their customer service, although imperfect, I have never had a major problem with.

Wow Verizon wireless used to have great… Wow Verizon wireless used to have great customer service but it is beyond bad now. I just don't have enough time to type all the issues I have had with them in the past 3 months that I still do not have resolved. Please do yourself a favor and use a different company as you provider.
