Are the ANY Apple Customer Service people here??????

If not, then why are these forums listed under "Support"???
If there are, then why don't they answer questions to REAL problems people are having instead of answering questions like, "How do I turn my iPad off?"???

There are a few apple representatives that post here and watch over the forums. 99% of the time however you will get another user response. In a way this is probably the best way to go at it because nobody knows a product better than the users.
Personally, I have used macintosh products all my life, I am pretty good at diagnosing problems with them. Do I work for apple? I wish, but no. Can I provide side by side support with products? Yes.
Something that these forums allows is for users to help each other. If you call apple support for help with your iPad, you will be speaking to someone on the phone, and they will be looking at a database of answers and suggestions to resolve your problem. Here you will be talking with users that have the same device infront of them. This allows people to dynamically solve problems together as well as discover flaws or bugs.
While apple has no solid presence on these support forums, they are watched and maintained by apple.
I hope that answered your question.

  • The lies that customer services reps tell you.

    My horrible experience with Verizon customer service today, 3 different representatives completely lied to me and told me 3 different instructions on how to get the new iPhone 6 plus which resulted in me losing my whole day for nothing. Only to have a Verizon customer service supervisor tell me that there was no records of any of my conversations with any of these customer service reps. Needless to say as a customer I am so unhappy with the way I have been treated and  lied to that I don’t even feel safe keeping my service with Verizon. I am afraid and that the next time I call with a question I now have no trust in anything that a Verizon customer service rep tells me. Read the below for details in my awful and exhausting expertise with Verizon today. 
    Today I went down to the Apple store to edge up my phone to the new iPhone 6 Plus. If you are told that you can do this as well think again. I know Apple has restricted when the new phones are available for the cell phone providers but they should have thought of a way for customers to more easily get phones through the Apple store since they don’t have it. To start this story off I had pre ordered the new iPhone 6 plus back in the beginning of September which I was going to have it shipped to the address I was living at. The pre order was not going to make it to me until October 28. Well last week I had to move and needed to change my shipping address. So when I called Verizon they said that they would have to cancel my order and re do it all over again in order to change the address, this sent my shipping date of the pre order back to October 31. I then asked if I were to find the phone at the Apple store sooner could I cancel this order and get it there. I was told that I would be able to go into the Apple store and get the phone if they got it in stock before I received my pre order. This morning I attempted to do exactly that. I called the Apple store to see if they had the iPhone 6 Plus in stock and they did, which has been hard to find lately. I then proceeded and called Verizon to cancel my pre order and ask about how I would go about getting my phone at Apple.  The person I talked to said that when I got to the Apple store and got my phone and before I paid all I need to do was call Verizon back and that they would work out a way to pay my remaining balance on my edge phone. I then drove 20 miles to the Apple store and did what I was told and called Verizon when I got there, they said that what the other person from Verizon said was not true. This new person told me what I had to do now was go to the Verizon store and pay my remaining balance and turn my phone in. Then I would be able to go back to Apple and get the new phone and keep my edge plan. At this point from talking to many people with Verizon and having to re explain what I was try to do, I asked this guy to put a note in my account of what he told me. This way when I got to the store they would know what I was trying to do. So I drove 5 miles back from where I came and got to the Verizon store, not a dealer the actual store, and talked to a sales associate who then told me there wasn’t a way for them to do what the guy on the phone said they could do. I was told by this sales associate and a manager that their system would only let me pay my remaining balance singularity, that the only way their system would let me pay my remaining balance to edge up was if I was getting the phone through them at the Verizon store. This didn’t make any since to me because I was still getting my plan though Verizon just not through that particular store. I began to get a little upset and told the sales associate to call Verizon and ask them what to do because every person I talked to on the phone though Verizon told me that I would be able to get my phone at Apple and edge up. They didn’t call at first instead they kept trying to get it to work though their system. The manager then told me again that they couldn’t do it and I insisted that they call Verizon and figure this out because I have driven so far and canceled my pre order to trade in my phone and now I am being told I cant. The manager then walked away and told his sales associate to call them. After waiting another 20 minutes for Verizon to answer the two associates talked about what I was trying to do and this new person on the phone wanted to talk to me. She made me explain my story all over again what I was told and a what I was trying to do and she said that what the people at Verizon store said was true and that they don’t know what the other people were talking about and that I can’t pay my remaining balance on my phone do I could edge up and get my phone at the Apple store. I told her then why has everyone been telling me I can, she said I don’t know, I told her that wasn’t good enough. By this time I was really upset and started to raise my voice a little bit. I have worked in the customer service industry for over 10 years and I know that when a customer is yelling at you it’s a bit unnerving. So I kept my cool as much as I could and didn’t swear or anything. I merely made my point that this wasn’t right and that I felt much abused as a customer. There is no reason why I should be lied to by more than one person, if I would have known that I couldn’t at first then I would have been just fine waiting until the end of October to get my pre order. Though I got so excited that the Apple store had the phone that I wanted and that Verizon told me I would be able to go down there and get it and then I rushed through my job, skipped lunch and canceled an appointment to do this just to find out I was lied to and sent on a wild goose chase, this just wasn’t right. While I had the latest person on the phone I asked if my calls have been recorded and noted to see if there was any documentation as to what I have been told and she said no there wasn’t, I told her that this was unacceptable from a customer service stand point. So I left the Verizon store really unhappy, upset and empty handed. The impression I got from both the sales associate from the store and this new person on the phone was that they wanted to make sure that the money I would pay for the phone went to them and not someone else. Which is poor customer services ethics. Also I lost my place in line for the pre order and would probably have to wait even longer to get it. So now I am beating if I should just cancel my line and get the phone through a different provider that won’t send me through the ringer when I call customer service. 

    I had the same exact thing happen to me. I can't believe the lies these customer service people are told to tell yiu

  • How can I send an e-mail to Apple Customer Service?

    Does anybody know how I can reach Apple Customer Service via e-mail?
    Since they repeatedly delete the questions I post to this discussion platform, maybe I can communicate with them via e-mail.
    If you are one of the Apple customer service people who are screening and deleting my posts, could you kindly send me an e-mail instead so we can start a communication.
    Any help/hints would be highly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, that email address is not Customer Service; it is for problems relating to your Apple Support Community account only and will therefore most likely not have the desired results.
    Apple has not published an email address for customer service; the best way to contact them for that would be at their corporate address in Cupertino:

    I am soooo disappointed with the apple customer service at the local store in Tampa......every time they give u an appointment and make people wait for hours......there was some cosmetic problems with the screen of my Mac book pro....they replaced it but the computer would not turn on....and btw when I went to pick up my computer the representative handover my computer to another guy without checking his id who was there to pick up his phone.......then I had to take it back second time this time they messed up my iWork...I took it back but they couldn't retrieve my history of purchase of iWork...and then when I installed the iWork at home...none of the applications is working.... .I will have to take is back fourth time.....I loved apple products but may be not anymore.......

    Other than what Shotist007's remarks (which solves nothing) your experience is not common. First I would speak to the store manager to get things rectified for you. If that doesn't work out then I would contact AppleCare and speak to a customer service representative and complain via that venue.

  • Is there anyone who can help me to contact the apple customer service? Because i want to know why they are diducted mt credit card more than the amount which is written on there apple store price? They are taken more!

    Why the apple store taken more amount more than the amount written on their prices? Is there any one who can help me to contact the apple customer services. Thanks!

    Some country's might not include tax in their prices, and if you changed or added your credit card details whilst making the purchase then a small temporary holding charge may also have been placed - in which case that should disappear within a few days (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702). Some apps also then allow you to make in-app purchases (though you can disable that via Settings > General > Restrictions)

  • Every time iTunes comes up in my MAC it quits and says "iTunes quit unexpectedly.  The problem has been reported to apple.".  ???? This has been going on for weeks.  Apple customer service sent me here...

    Every time iTunes comes up on my computer it quits within a few seconds and the message reads," iTunes quit unexpectedly. They problem has been reported to apple.  But it's been like this for weeks.

    Is this AppleCare you are calling? If it is, you need to call back.  They are there to help you with technical issues, specifically ones with your computer.  Or, are you emailing iTunes customer service?

    You should call Apple but you should get an email from Apple. I got one a few minutes ago and this is what they said about AppleCare+ :
    Thank you for your recent iPhone 5 purchase at the Apple Store.
    We would like to let you know that every iPhone comes with one year of hardware repair coverage through its limited warranty and up to 90 days of complimentary support. AppleCare+ for iPhone extends your coverage to two years from the original purchase date of your iPhone and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a $49 service fee.
    We noticed you weren't given the opportunity to add AppleCare+ to your iPhone. If you would like to extend your coverage for only $99, please reply to this email by September 21st.
    After that date, if you would still like to purchase AppleCare+ within the first thirty days of receiving your iPhone, you can call AppleCare at 800-MY-IPHONE or visit an Apple Retail Store.
    Thank you for shopping with Apple.
    Sincerely,
    Apple Online Store Team

    I'm not sure where on the internet or which store you mean -- but if you mean an Apple advertisement on the internet and an Apple Store, note that there was an ad for MacBooks that showed them with a variety of stickers but Apple does't sell the stickers and not all of the ones shown in the ad were commercially available.

    Alright, I have a suggestion for improvement. We need a new forum section for complaints about the way Apple is treating us.
    To make sure I'm being clear, let me give you an example of just such a post that may be included in such a section.
    I ordered online the family packs of Leopard, iWork '08 and iLife '08 on November 6th. I received an email telling me my order had been shipped on November 7th.
    On November 9th I decided to check the progress of my shippment by logging on to FedEx. To my surprise, it had been delivered! Not to me but another party. I could download a PDF from FedEx and see the signature.
    After trying to deal with FedEx for a few days I was finally told to deal with Apple because they would have to initiate the investigation. Fine. These things happen.
    On 11/13/2007 I spoke with an Apple Customer Service Representative and received an Apple Issue Number and Case Number. I was told that it should be resolved in a few days. It wasn't.
    11/20/2007, Here's where it gets interesting. In talking with them again I explained that since my signature was not on the FedEx ticket it had not been delivered properly if at all. I explained that since FedEx was clearly at fault the package should be shipped again. Finally they agreed. I was told that my package would be shipped and to expect an email.
    11/23/2007, I was told again that nothing would be shipped until after an investigation had been completed. So did they lie? I spoke with a manager who kept repeating that he was sorry for the mis-communication. That became very frustrating to say the least. Remember, FedEx requires a signature. Without it or my permission to deliver somewhere else they must deliver to me and get my signature. The FedEx PDF clearly shows another persons signature.
    Equally frustrating is the fact that they will not keep me informed as to the status. I have to call them and wait on hold. I did get a couple of emails with text along the lines of, "We continue to work with our carrier on your lost package. "
    However, there is no way to reply to these form letters. The only way to stay in touch with Apple is to call and be put on hold.
    Twice, after giving them my order number and being put on hold "while they look up my records" or whatever, the call was disconnected. I'm not saying they did so on purpose but the results were the same. Another call, another round of giving my order number and explaining to yet again a new person the details of the situation.
    I've had many problems with Apple since becoming a customer in June of 2006 but I just can't let this go. I need a place to warn others. If you buy something, you might be better off buying it from a store instead of on-line. This kind of information is needed to warn others concerning the business practices of Apple should something go wrong. This is why we need a new section for putting forth such complaints.

    It seems to me that the real problem here is with FedEx, as I have encountered similar types of problems with them in the past. Even though a signature is required, I have had packages left on my porch. When I enquired, someone had actually signed (i.e.forged) my name! Other times it has been left on my porch with some other signature. When I call to complain, FedEx just seems to think there is no problem as long as I got my package. They seem totally unconcerned even though a signature is required and I definitely did not authorize delivery with no signature. I have expressed my concerns directly to Apple, but have no way of knowing if it has done any good. I think this problem is worse with FedEx ground, as that is contracted out. Around here anyway, i think the drivers will sign the ticket and leave the package just so they won't have to make another trip. It's not right, and it's not supposed to happen this way, but i know it does.
    Apple entrusted your package to FedEx in good faith that it would be delivered to you, and that your signature would be required for you to receive it. That should have resulted in you receiving it. however, due to a false signature, you did not. Clearly, FedEx is responsible.
    If the package was supposedly delivered to your address, but has a false signature, I wonder if the driver might have signed the delivery ticket or gotten someone else to sign it and just left it on your porch or something like that. If so, it could have been subsequently stolen. If something like this happened, it might explain why things are so bogged down in the investigation at Apple. From their viewpoint, the package was delivered and a signature was obtained and they are probably being stonewalled by FedEx.
    A user to user discussion forum such as Apple Discussions won't help with delivery problems. It's best to report them directly to Apple as you have done. If you continue to have problems, you can call Apple and ask to speak to Apple Customer Relations. They may well be able to cut through the red tape. You could also express your concern in the "Feedback to Apple" section. Maybe if enough people complain, they might consider awarding the shipping contract to someone else. Or perhaps the other shippers are even worse.
    One of my recent shipments was evidently lost in a typhoon. But when I called Apple, a replacement was sent out immediately. This is more what I would expect of Apple, and you have every right to expect similar treatment.
    If FedEx delivered to the wrong address and got a wrong signature, they should be expected to go back and retrieve the package. But if they delivered to your address and did not get your signature, then you would be well within your rights to go to your local Better Business Bureau and file a complaint against FedEx. That might possibly get some action of some sort. FedEx cannot ignore the BBB as easily as they can ignore you. If your signature was actually forged, you will certainly be able to prove that the signature on the delivery ticket is definitely not yours. And you could forward the BBB complaint to Apple. I don't know if this would help or just muddy the water, but it would put a little more pressure on FedEx I would think.
    In the meantime, I would certainly speak to Apple Customer Relations and see if they can help you out here. They want happy Apple customers, and I think they would like to know about the extreme frustrations you are experiencing through no fault of your own.
    I sympathize with your problems, and I hope that you are able to get them resolved soon.
    Good luck!

  • I reached my 1000th hour logged on the phone with customer service

    I've been using Verizon jetpacks for 9 months now.  Seemed like a sweet deal. Prepaid. Convenient. Fast and reliable.  WRONG!  I logged my 1000th hour on the phone with customer service today after a 5 hour "troubleshooting" session, second one this week. I've been having to make this exact 5 hour phone call every week sometimes up to 4x per week.  I've never spent less than 3 hours on the phone or gone more than 4 days without having to contact customer "service."  Naturally, this is pretty ignorant sounding.  But, I paid $100 for a significantly small amount of data.  I prepaid to be exact. For a service to be rendered one must be able to receive the service paid for.  That's simply not the case.  I paid $100 for this data already and can't actually use it with any convenience. Unless of course, 5-20 per week on the phone with customer service is typical of any other company.  Other than Virgin Mobile, No.  It's in fact an extremely absurd amount time for ANY customer to spend on the phone with ANY customer service.  No exception.  I feel rather abused, used and ****** over by this so call "service".  I lost 6 clients. They all sued me in small claims for $3000 each for failing to maintain my end due to my weekly dose of hours on the phone with customer service and NOT doing the job I was employed to do. Nope. Instead, I spent my time with Verizon Customer Service and COURT! Yay!  So, I've lost my home, my car was repo'd, $18k loss, 6 customers... and not one time has Verizon spent one second and said to me "Verizon could be the problem"... NEVER has that been the case in all 1000 hours logged.  Interesting?  No.  Just abusive.  I resent having to call customer service at all any more. It's even causing my mental health to suffer after all this.  You know what is found every time?  I'm on a prepaid plan on a device customer service told me to purchase.  But wait... thats the second device.  Every week I'm told The OTHER device is the one that works with this plan... then a few days later, no that other device is the one that works with the plan, a few days later... The OTHER DEVICE IS THE ONE THAT WORKS.. FFS. See a pattern? I've been directed by Verizon to replace my device 3 times, at $100+ per device plus the $10 sim card, plus the 5 hours on the phone with them every few days.  I'd say there's an issue with customer service.  First, yes it IS possible there is an issue on YOUR end.  I'm pretty sure that having to buy a new device every time I call isn't really the best answer.  Second, for the extremely limited amount of data I can't afford to watch a video for fear of capping my data before the end of the 30 days because its 10gig of data.  Yeah, 2 whole movies worth!  Third, its possible to be wrong, yet Verizon has never, not one single time chose to check their end.  ALWAYS and ONLY my end. I don't find that surprising or ironic, I find it the most ignorant and worst customer service in existence only second to Virgin Mobile.  Virgin mobile did finally acknowledge the issue was in the broken tower nearby. It took them 6 months and yes... 100's of hours on the phone.  Verizon hasn't made any effort to accept responsibility for this issue.  I'm sure they are very sincere when they are consuming my 5 hours per phone call trouble shooting my device for the third time this week.  It's actually to the point where they have violated their terms of service and failed to look into an issue on their end.  The tower has been hit.  Hmmm... Ironic. Its quite a distance from here, but is a main tower that has caused an outage across my state. Verizon couldnt tell me that?  Is that admitting your wrong so hard to do that it's easier to spend 5 hours on the phone trouble shooting my device than 5 mins looking for outages?  Yeah, it could have saved my house and job, but I'm the customer... clueless idiot at the mercy of a company who is never wrong nor makes an effort to correct an issue on their end before stealing my hours from me.  At one point, I actually fell asleep in my 2nd hour on hold.  Customer service? Nope, a waste.  I could dig it if this issue was on my end, but I'm confident that spending up to 20 hours a week troubleshooting to no avail is a HUGE red flag that its not on my end after all.  Only cost me a house, a job, car and $18k plus court costs and fees.  Fair? Nope.  But it would be nice if just ONCE there was an initiative to provide actual support to a customer. I KNOW if this is my experience it is impossible to be an isolated incident with me alone.  If I'm tying up 5 hours on the phone, what is the next guy doing? waiting to trouble shoot his box for the next 5 hours over a downed tower. Pride is what that is. People too proud to be wrong at someone else's expense. Definitely an issue if I've paid $900 in 9 months and I spent more hours on the phone with customer service than I have online.  Pretty ******. Verizon, you ARE WRONG. Owning it would save the embarrassment of having to ***** about it on this site. I didnt' deserve my losses and it was at my expense and it is STILL at my expense that I'm having to contact that 888-294-6804 number. I've got it memorized like it was my best friends number - that's how often and how many times i've used it. Shame how simple it would be if Verizon wasn't so ******* proud and spent a few moments looking for issues on their end before stealing 5 hours from me doing the obvious over and over and over again... Small claims can be used to sue up to $3k. Looks like that's my only alternative, perhaps if I do that maybe checking for issues on their end will occur instead of pretending its impossible.  It feels like I went to mcd's and paid for a meal at the window that took 5 hours to get a bag of raw patties thrown at me from inside after sitting at the window for 5 hours and waiting. I'm wrong  of course. I'm am the customer.  How could I possibly be right? I've troubleshooted my device over 1000 times. Of course its on my end. Must be.... 1000 times isn't enough to find out there's a potential issue that isn't related to my specific device, no? Is it gonna take 1000 more hours on the phone before one of the representatives decide to look for an outage before the 5 hours of daily trouble shooting? Thats a huge red flag that just keeps getting ignored.  I can't think of any other companies besides these two internet providers that finds that acceptable.  Better Business Bureau didn't. I'll be filing that complaint with them next.  High time Verizon stepped off such a prideful pedestal and seek a remedy before a class action suit sinks them in the future from all other raging bitches not being provided with reasonable service.  It's not a rant, this has been a life shattering experience for me and a simple quick check for an issue on their end could have prevented it.  BAD BAD BAD Customer service policies to keep a customer on the phone for that length of time to repetitiously check the exact same thing repeatedly every few days.  Disgusted.  How dare that term "service" even be used if they can't provide "service" via support or otherwise.  I'm on the internet finally after 10 hours and the news reported the Verizon tower down. Not verizon... A police officer interviewed on a Detroit News station instead. God knows police have nothing better to do in Detroit than make news appearances for verizon. 

    Simple solution. Get a real internet service and not a cell phone internet connection service it was never meant to be used as the primary internet service
    And how do you lose a home and job and be sued as you claim. What over 10 Gb of data? Give me a break
    In my city small claims is $5000.00
    And over that amount you can go to a superior court to have your issue settled.

  • Great Apple Customer Service!

    I have been plagued with Iphone 3g issues. A few of the problems have been bright pixels and dirt under the screen. The customer support has been great through the process of exchanging my Iphones. I am embarrassed to say that I have replaced my Iphone 5 times with the 6th Iphone on the way. With any other company they would have told me to deal with it, not with apple they have been very helpful and made me feel like my happiness is their number one concern. I just want to say thanks for such great customer service!

    Terrible Customer Service!
    I did NOT get my iPhone wet, but the mute switch on the side quit working. It moves like it is working, but it doesn't turn the ringer off. Vibrate still works, but I have to turn the volume down to get the "mute" the ringer. I went to the Apple store to exchange the adapter and thought they would of course cover my phone under the warranty. But found I had to make an appointment and come back to see someone about my issue. So I did. When I returned for my appointment, however, according to the "genius" that examined my phone - one of the moisture sensors had been tripped, negating the warranty. My phone is only three months old - I am the only one who uses it, and it has never gotten wet! But even the manager at the Apple Store - who never even looked at the phone himself - refused to honor the warranty. I couldn't believe it! I have been an Apple user and supporter for 20 years. I started on the Apple IIe. I currently have an new iMac and an older MacBook, that I was planning on replacing with the new MacBook just announced. I bought the first iPhone the day it came out, and the G3 as soon as it came out. I am in the education field, and I have argued with my colleagues for years about the virtues of the Mac vs. PC's. To say I have been a strong proponent of Apple would be a huge understatement. I have heard that as Apple is getting more of the market share, customer service and satisfaction have also gone down, while product quality has also gone down. But I didn't believe it. I have always been so satisfied with my Apple products. I can't believe they have this policy and refused to fix or replace my iPhone. I have no idea what would "trip" one moisture sensor. If it really got wet - wouldn't more than one sensor get wet? And besides that, how could that issue have anything to do with the mute switch on the other end of the phone - even a "genius" could figure this out. Instead of caring about my business and giving me customer satisfaction, they took the "easy out". I am very upset and disappointed about this response from a company that I have supported for so many years. I am only one customer, but a lot of people treated like me can make a difference. I feel like I have no recourse except through this website. I am very disappointed and frustrated.

  • Complete apple customer service incompetence

    Well, I'm not sure where to post a statement like this but here goes...
    At the beginning of September, I had ordered a new 15 inch macbook pro from apple with the quicker hardrive, which proceeded to arrive within the the next week (good job there). The problem came when the trackpad and keyboard started to sporadically cease responding (while external keyboards and mice would function just fine). Eventually they stopped working all together. This was within the first week of owning the computer. After taking it to the nearest apple authorized dealer/repair shop, the computer was diagnosed with an extremely rare bug/flaw. Apple decided to take the computer back and do an exchange. The problem was, in order to send the computer back, I still had to wait for the special fedex shipping labels from them to arrive. After about a week the labels had not yet arrived, so apple gave me the special numbers without the label to get the computer shipped out any way. After the computer started its trip, Apple, given the tracking numbers was going to expedite the replacement to get things done as quick as possible. Its now October first, a month later, and I still have no Macbook Pro (which was going to be my college computer). Now it turns out someone at Apple customer service screwed up and cancelled sending out the replacement upon also canceling the labels that wouldn't be needed. So now the new computer was supposedly given the order to get sent out today, how long will it take this time? By the way, those labels arrived just last week. So now they obviously have the messed up computer, and my money, but I still don't have anything (except $50 dollars put back on the credit card). When does this start getting called theft?
    I love Apple products, I've been using them my whole life, but this is the worst case of incompetence in the case of customer service that I've ever seen.

    check out my posts about the same issue in the macbook section. I ended up going to a macbook pro. feel free to email me for some serious comments!

  • Appalled by the lack of customer service - NEW PHONE is DEFECTIVE

    I was leaving for California at the end of July and needed a battery for my Galaxy Note 2. There were none to be found. Verizon agreed to allow me early upgrade to the Galaxy Note 3. After daily phone conversations with customer service, I finally got my phone 4 days after it was to be shipped next day air. I had to pay $75 California tax and a $15 next day fee. I live in Massachusetts and although we are known as "Taxachusetts" - it would not have been that much if sent to my home. Needless to say, I get the phone and it is unable to hold a charge (not being used) for more than 8 hours. I called customer service at least 10 times for a matter of at least 8 hours and have no resolution. I cannot get a new phone because I am beyond the 2 week deadline - "Really?" at that point I had the phone for 3 1/2 weeks. I have a phone bill sitting on my table for $418.00 (to include equipment) - I will not pay for this phone until they send me a new one. I do not think that is unreasonable, yet, each of the 10 customer service and supervisors I spoke with told me that is not possible - no one could do that for me...Look, all I want is a phone that works and VERIZON WILL NOT ASSIST ME WITH THIS SITUATION!!! I have been a customer for a long time and am absolutely appalled by the lack of customer service!!! I am asking those on here for help.  What carrier should I move to?  Evidently Verizon does not need my service - and I am happy to share with my "Friends and Family" what a deceptive company this is.  So what do you all suggest?

     It's as my original messages states.  After taking the iPhone5 to a verizon store and being told is was a known defect with the screen, we sent the phone back and received a refurbished phone.  After weeks, we were sent an email with a picture imbedded that would not display.  It stated the phone had internal damage.  We certainly would not have returned the phone had we not been instructed to do so by Verizon or if it was damaged.  We requested to send the refurbished IPhone back - we would have rather paid for a brand new phone than $300 for a refurbished one.  We were told we could not.   Beyond this - the support was unreal.  The first person we spoke stated there was zero record of our original call to support to return the phone although our detailed calling bill showed a 35 min call.  Three calls later and no one was able to show us the damange, prove it was our phone, etc.  I'm not convinced this isnt some sham to get more money to be honest.  We've been with you for 10 years.  I do not want to pay for a refurbished phone especially when a verizon tech instructed us to send the original back due to a defect.
