Automatic Calls from Verizon Wireless?

Recently, I had a situation where I would receive a call from my daughter's Verizon Wireless phone. I could hear people talking in the background (she was on vacation), but nobody responded to my voice. Assuming that it was an accidental redial, I hung up. Within 5-10 seconds I received another call from her phone. Same problem. After receiving 43-45 calls from her phone I sent her an email. She responded that her phone showed no outgoing calls.
Although the problem has resolved itself, I am curious as to what might have caused the issue. Any ideas?

Weird text message from Verizon Wireless

I have been receiving the text message from 900080004000 three times a day. It is from Verizon Wireless. The tech at Verizon store tried to fix this problem by blocking all text messages from email and website. It didn't work. Does anyone know how to stop it?

Got a call from verizon to reistar my booster now phone calls drop

got a call from Verizon to registrar my Wilson booster . so i did and got confirmation now the signal is weak

In the phone settings, you can select which ways you will receive your iMessages. Settings - iMessage - Send and Receive I think.
As for Contacts, well, you have the same AppleID so your contacts in the cloud are the same. Were your contacts just on your phone before? Maybe hers were in the cloud and yours were only on your phone?
EDIT: if yours were only on your phone before, you can turn off the iCloud account in Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

The RAZR - Now with V CAST from Verizon Wireless

Does anone know if this (The RAZR - Now with V CAST from Verizon Wireless) syncs with iSync? I don't see it here
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html
but I think the model is new.
thanks
roger

There's a link on the howardforum board (see the hotlink in the above posting) to a site where you can download a new .plist (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9PH5DVRU) I replaced the iSync .plist with the downloaded file and restarted my iMac.
(the howardforum board has directions for "showing" the .plist in Applications; right click on the iSync application).
iSync immediately recognized my phone via BLUETOOTH and I synched all my contacts wirelessly. I too bought the USB cable but never got it to work wired with iSync and don't need it now.
The download also has a .TIFF of the RAZR, so your iSync panel will have an icon for it.
Took a little trying (I am not used to this level of tinkering) but once I restarted the Mac, voila, no probs.
PS - I am talking about the Verizon RAZR V3c. Good luck.

Rebates from Verizon Wireless-I got mine!

I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for more than 6 years. I received my rebate card in the mail today. I have to say that Matt at the Spokane Valley Mall Verizon Store was EXCELLENT in helping me get the new phone I needed and set me up with all the accessories necessary in this day and age. He also gave me the paperwork that I had to send in for the rebate cared. All I did was make sure it was coming to me....and put it in the mail. It only took 3 weeks! I activated my rebate card and signed it and am ready to go! I am very Happy with Verizon Wireless.

In case it might help, here's the actual language in the email from Verizon Wireless:
Lower Your Bill by $10 per Month
Not quite ready to upgrade? No problem. Keep your current phone and we'll lower your bill by $10 every month until you're ready to upgrade or renew your service agreement.

Calls from Verizon offering money

Has anyone else received a call from Verizon offering them $199.00. I have not enter any contest, signed up for free promotions or anything. My husband and I both received this cal. Do you or anyone know what this is about?

I received one of these calls as well. I was told to log on to vzw50.com Apparently, according to the customer service rep I talked with at *611, there are a number of different websites suggested for receiving your Verizon bonus money. They are all scams, obviously, and need to be reported to Verizon. If you receive a text message of this sort, forward it to 7726; if you receive an email of this sort, forward it to [email protected]; if you receive a phone message, call *611 and report it. There is a team of VZW tech people looking into this. I suggested that all Verizon customers need to be informed so that they are not vulnerable to the negative effects of responding to one of these phishing attempts.
If it sounds to good to be true, it usually is!

Unable to print return label from Verizon Wireless Website due to Pop-Up Blocker Settings

I contacted a customer service representative via chat on the Verizon Wireless website on January 27, 2014 regarding the purchase of a Verizon 4G LTE USB Modem-UML 295. He assured me that if I purchased the device, I would be able to return it within 14 days without any obligation to pay for the device or commit to a two year contract. After that assurance, I ordered the device. I received the device via FedEx on January 30, 2014 and there was no return label included in the package.
On February 6, 2014, 10 days after the order was placed, I attempted to print a return label to return the device. After my first attempt to print a return label did not work, I used the option on the web page to print a second return label. After the second attempt to print a return label was unsuccessful, I found that my pop up blocker on my web browser was preventing the print screen from opening. After I turned off my pop up blocker, I attempted to find an option to print a return label a third time, however, there was no option to print a third label.
I contacted customer service via chat on February 7, 2014 and they were not able to provide me with a return label or disconnect the service. The representative told me to contact customer service via phone. I spoke with “Karen” at the phone number that he provided. Karen instructed me to attempt to go to a local Verizon Dealer to get a return label. She also told me that she would mail me a return label; that she was unable to email me a return label or assist me in printing a new return label on the website; and she expressed her concern that I may miss the 14 day return window because she had to mail the return label to me. Furthermore, she told me that the only way to disconnect service on the device was to return it and that she was only able to “suspend” service at this time. This conflicts the language on the customer receipt that states, “you MUST contact Customer Service if you want to disconnect service. Your wireless service and related access CHARGES WILL CONTINUE until the time you contact Customer Service to disconnect service."
So far, my attempts to return the device have been frustrated by mechanisms provided by the company to do so. I contacted my local Verizon authorized Radio Shack in Grangeville, Idaho and the next closest Verizon Authorized Dealer 70 miles away in Lewiston, Idaho and neither were able to provide me with a return label because they are not Corporate Verizon Wireless stores. I will continue to attempt to find a way to return the device within the 14 day window, but intend this to serve as notice of my attempts to comply with the contract provisions.
I look forward to a expeditious and equitable resolution to this situation and hope to continue to be a loyal customer to the Verizon Wireless company.

This is a customer to customer forum, not going to alert Verizon wireless here.
However get yourself to a UPS or FedEx store location and you pay for the return shipment back to Verizon wireless out of your own pocket
However you need to get the return address before you can send it back. Call Verizon 1-800-922-0204 to get the address or even try Google to see if it matches what they told you.
Insure the item at the most you can afford. Keep your receipt and track it constantly.
Do a Overnight delivery otherwise Verizon will claim its been after 14 days and then you are in big do do.
They will make you pay fees etc. so do this quickly. Its well worth the money.
Good Luck

Does anybody know which flashlite application I can buy from Verizon wireless?

Thanks

If I think I understand your question correctly, you can buy
a game called Jungle Jim. Buying any FL app from Verizon will
automatically install FL player on your Verizon handset.

Turned away from Verizon Wireless to Apple for purchase... is this normal?

Today I entered a Verizon Wireless location - an actual location, not an authorized retailer. I wanted to purchase an iPhone 5c at full retail price (month-to-month) as a gift. I was told that the iPhone would have to be activated at the time of purchase. I explained to the sales representative that I could perform the activation myself using My Verizon online, and that activating the phone at the time of purchase would interrupt the gift recipient's service until the the gift was received, and also ruin any surprise. The representative just reiterated Verizon Wireless's policy, and confirmed that I could go to an Apple store and buy an iPhone 5c without an activation. I then left the store and contacted Verizon Wireless Customer Service which explained that this is not policy, and that I should have been able to make the full retail price purchase without activation, and the customer service representative appeared confused at how the store could have turned me away.
I then returned to the same store, waited in line again, and explained my conversation with Customer Service with a different sales representative and he explained that the iPhone would have to be activated at the time of purchase, and that I could personally contact Verizon Wireless Customer Service on my own phone and that he would explain this to the Customer Service Representative. I then called Verizon Wireless Customer Service again and waited, and explained my situation to a different representative, who was equally as confused as the first as to how the store could have turned me away. The sales representative and customer service representative had a conversation for approximately 10 minutes while the manager on duty walked by several times never taking charge of the situation, and just stating, it is because we have a different system.
I left the store without being able to make the gift purchase. I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for many years and I have always gone out of my way to make my purchases at Verizon Wireless locations, and not Apple Store, BestBuy, or authorized retailers. I am confused as to wether or not this is Verizon Wireless's actual policy, and if so how is anyone suppose to make a gift purchase through Verizon Wireless at full retail price?
I also would like to note that the two Customer Services Representatives were very helpful and polite, and the first one was trying to order the phone for me so that I could in fact activate it at home, however the shipment would not have been quick enough for the gift purpose.
Verizon Wireless Customer Service please contact me directly.

This is not VZW's policy. They certainly can sell you a device full price or on contract without activating it in the store. The reps do receive commission on their sales and you purchasing a phone full retail and I would imagine no accessories does not pay the rep at all. It is sad but you were turned away so that the rep could make a sale that would pay while not dropping quotas. as EVERYTHING counts and this sale would have lowered the rep's sales numbers. It is totally not your fault but your sale would have been a negative effect on the rep. S/he was trying to direct you to Apple where the employees do not make commission so it doesn't matter what they sell to you. You might have had a better experience at Apple where they don't get paid on what they sell. Granted, this is not your problem but maybe a little insight into why it seemed so difficult for you to purchase this gift.

Poor customer service from Verizon wireless

I suspended one of the telephone numbers on my account in June, I was not told at the time in 90 days I would begin to be charged again for that telephone line $9.99 plus surcharges. Unknown to me I have been paying for over 3 months a line charge for a cell phone I no longer have, for a phone number I no longer use. I called customer loyalty tonight, if you can call it that,
and was told the line charge and the surcharge is for saving the telephone number. This is for a line I no longer use that does not as of today have a cell phone for. They would not offer me any credit on that phone line even though they admit it is not in service. I have been a cellular customer with VERIZON for over 10 years where is my loyalty? I will tell you where it will be with SPRINT when my contract expires. I am a small business owner and I have credited customers who had a legitimate complaint to keep their business. I am surprised for the small amount of credit Verizon would be willing to lose another customer.

Texting from I Mac from Verizon wireless web page

When I text from my I Mac on the Verizon wireless web page, I receive reply's when I send the text immediately, however, I don't receive reply's if I send the text using the send later option. Is it possible to receive reply's when using the send later option?

When you use the send later option, any replies will not be received back in vtext.com. Reason is these are actually one-way alerts which have no real reply email address. You will notice the from address is different than when you send a text immediately.

Is there a prompt to activate visual voicemail once I switched services from Verizon Wireless to Verizon Pre-Paid Services?

I recently transferred from my verizon wireless account over to verizon prepaid; my iPhone 4 will only allow me to extract voice mail by dialing in *86 and my visual voicemail is not functioning. The message I get is from the phone voicemail greeting screen setup is " Voicemail Unavailable could not authorize access" . Is there a fix for this? please help.

Just got off the phone with Verizon. Voicemail indication and access to your voice from the Phone app is now restricted. There is no Voicemail directly from you iPhone for Verizon pre-paid.
If you can not get to your Verizon Voicemail hit *228 and respond with a 1 and let the message say your phone has been setup.

A friend of mine lives in colombia and wants me to buy him an iphone 5. I was wondering if it could be used there if it is from Verizon Wireless or Sprint. or Just Tmobile

i just want to know if i could purchase a spring or verizon wireless iphone and it would be able to work in colombia

Mac OS X will install in whatever language you wish, and will offer you the option when you first boot from the installer disk. Other than perhaps labeling there won't be any difference in the disks.

Awaiting delivery of an Iphone 6 from Verizon wireless

Hello all,
On October 13th I went to an independent Verizon store and ordered an iphone 6 in space gray for 64 gb. The young man at the store didn't provide much service (distracted by a football game) but he was able to order me a new iphone. He said the phones have been arriving earlier than their shipment date then told me that my phone wouldn't be shipped until the 14th of November! I went through with the process as he was adamant that I would have my phone the 1st week of november. I haven't had any update about my phone from verizon and am wondering if anyone else is having a hold up with an Iphone 6 from verizon.
If you have received your phone how long did it take if you ordered it in early october?
Cheers,
Fahnesel

Hi fahnesel,
I ordered my iPhone 6 64GB Gold about a week after you (October 21). The expected shipping date was originally 11/7/14 but to my excitement, I received an email today saying it would probably be here by the 7th! I was given about a 2.5 week period of waiting but it's definitely worth it I would say. Unfortunately, Verizon doesn't give you much to work with in terms of tracking where your order is until it is actually shipped out.
Hope this helps!
