Been without any phone service for over 8 hours

There is no way to report the outage online as the diagnostic does not show anything.  All of Chihuahua Valley in Warner Springs, California has not had phone service for over 8 hours and Verizon will not admit a problem despite numerous phone calls from friends who are outside the community and have phone service.  One of the neighbours was told there are no reports of an outage and was told that she could make an appointment for a tech to come out on the 15th!!!!!  Well if anyone at Verizon is reading this then get off your **bleep** and get this fixed.   951 767

  • No internet or phone service for over a month

    I will try to write calmly, but I am EXTREMELY angry and frustrated with verizon support.
    Our internet and phone service have been down for over a month. We've called over and over, and they've sent technicians. The first two technicians disappeared after fiddling around with our cables. Then someone from Verizon came around and said our cables and setup was fine, but it was something wrong at the Verizon office. They said it would be fixed within 2 days.
    Then about a WEEK after that, we got angry and called Verizon support. They sent a technician 2 days later, who fiddled around. He said that it should be working within an hour and that he'd call us to see if it was working. Well 2 hours later, it still wasn't working..but Verizon sent me a call on my cellphone saying that our "problem" was cleared.Well IT WASN'T.
    And now it's been about 2 weeks since THEN and we haven't had internet or phone service. We filed another request, but it says in the Status that Verizon does not need to send a technician or something. Well WE DO NOT HAVE PHONE OR INTERNET SERVICE. And they have the NERVE to keep sending us bills.
    We are just tired of Verizon. We do not know what to do. Somebody get me a lawyer. Or some verizon support that DOESN'T have an indian accent, and can fix this **bleep** problem.
    Thank you.

    I can see why you would be angry and frustrated. I got the same Central Office story from the (otherwise very helpful) agent with an Indian name that I online chatted with yesterday, which makes that sound like a generic **bleep** response for something that's wrong with the Fios network. I've only been out for about 34 hours so far (they've said I will have service back by the evening of May 3, meaning only 4 1/2  days without service, lucky me!), but I was dumb enough to get phone, internet and TV all through Fios, so I have none of those. Fortunately I kept a Comcast internet account as backup, which is how I can access this forum.  I do have a cell phone and I can get a few TV channels over the air, but that's not why I'm paying {please keep your posts courteous}$155 a month. And it is simply insulting to call Support and get put on hold for an hour. I'm reminded of the old Lily Tomlin SNL skit where she says something along the lines of "we're the telephone company, we don't have to care". Verizon may no longer be Ma Bell, but that attitude hasn't changed.

  • Faulty Line - No Phone service for over 4 weeks.

    Hi,
    I've had NO phone or broadband for over 4 weeks and no useful information as to when this will be fixed.
    I'm hoping someone could provide me with and alternative contact number to the 0800 800 151/0330 123 4151 one, where I can speak to someone who is willing to actually help me and not just quote the false information that has been presented to them.
    I reported my fault on Friday 12th December 2014 and the online fault details page still shows an estimated repair date of Wednesday 17th December 2014.
    Being reported on a Friday it wasn't until the Monday 15th that an engineer turned up, spent all day investigating the fault to say that it was a network fault but that the engineers needed to get into a manhole in the middle of the street and this would require traffic lights and someone who be in touch with an update.
    No update received so I called and was told it took 5 days to arrange traffic management so engineers would be dealing 23rd/24th December.
    Needless to say the deadline passed no engineers no phone. Next call on the 29th told engineers would be dealing 31st December or 2nd January. Seems to be a pattern developing here.
    Called again, told traffice management was still to be sorted (thought this only took 5 days, what were the engineers doing 23rd/24th December or 31st December or 2nd January??????). Told engineers would be dealing 9th January.
    Surprise, surprise no engineers no fix one falsehood after another.
    Used chat this time only to be told "don't know why you were told engineers would be dealing on the 9th January, traffic management is still to be arranged.
    But I was told this would only take 5 days back on the 16th December??????
    Conversations just go round and round with no one willing to take owership of this fault and get it resolved.#
    To add further insult both the engineer who visited back on the 16th December and at least one of the numerous people I have spoken to on the phone had said that there are several household impacted by this fault.
    Knowing that I would have expected a bit more urgency.
    Mobile service is poor at my home location and I have elderly parents who need to be able to contact me and my land line is essential for this. Hotspots are very weak and I'm lucky if I can connect for a few minutes at a time, and if other household members want to connect at the same time then there is no chance.
    Very disappointing.

  • No landline phone service for more than a week

    I have been without landline phone service since Wednesday September 4th, 2013. Today, September 12, is a full 8 days without phone service. I have called Verizon countless amount of times with promises to come and fix my service but to no avail. I was informed this was an area outtage which would make me think they would fix it faster but no. I am so disappointed with the way Verizon has been handling this situation. Typical, if you ask me. My ticket number is{edited for privacy}

    During restore my 3GS has been stuck in Apps loading for over 30 minutes now.. Any suggestions? Thanks ps.. I am holding off buying 4S until bugs worked out..

    The problem is twenty three people leaving or twenty three thousand leaving has zero impact on a carrier with over 100 million customers. And they have the lowest churn rate. So if 10,000 or 20,000 or more churn out it means little to the carrier.
    If you have a real lawyer he/she will advise you that you have no case. The device was not lost or stolen by the carrier, you were not eligible for a new device, and like any business who employs large numbers of poorly trained personnel who make low wages what was told to you is not in writing. So a verbal exchange does not hold up.
    In fact in Verizon's customer agreement it has such a disclaimer against any verbal exchanges so if you have that agreement in writing, go get them.
    The posting on public forums and places like Face Book, Linkin, Google+ or a personal web site can open you up to a lawsuit for Dilution of Trade Name, and other offences. However if you have proof then go for it.
    Unfortunately that is how big business works today. A pity

  • Restore new iPad Mini from iPad 1 backup. Ican update new apps from Apple store but most of my apps have been showing the Waiting status for over 12 hours. Store shows them as installed. What gives?

    Restore new iPad Mini from iPad 1 backup. Ican update new apps from Apple store but most of my apps have been showing the Waiting status for over 12 hours. Store shows them as installed. What gives?

    If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • PHONE SERVICE FOR SPECIAL NEED CUSTOMER - YOU NEVER SHOWED????

    We have been able to maintain my brother-in-law in an independent setting for most of his 59 years of life. Beyond his diabetes, cognitive delays and heart disease, he also struggles with the residual effects of schizophrenia and an awareness that he his different from other people. Recently, we had to move him into a new apartment and he needed land line phone service. We were not thrilled that we would have to wait more than 3-weeks to get an appointment - even after we explained he has medical needs - but we put as many supports as we could around him (needless to say, he forgets to charge his cell  phone, but the walkie-talkies worked ok). 
    THEN the day of our appointment arrives - AND NO VERIZON??? We waited from1-5pm, taking time off work... and no technician showed. When we called to ask the status of our appointment, we were told that the appointment was on the computer but no notes as to why  no one came. We were told we could Verizon could come the net day (which would be today , as I write) but it would be any time between 8am-5pm.
    Why is this ok? Where is the customer service, the care? Why do I now have to wait from 8-5 for another technician - when we should ahve been put first on someone's list? I know we are not getting FIOS but...
    I am venting here because there seems to be no customer concern hotline or email and I do not think this should get lost in the shuffle. Phone service for my brother-in-law is essential and vital to his wellbeing and abilitty to continue to function safely within the community. How can I recommend and respect your commitment to servicing persons with disabilities and special needs if this is my experiences with Verizon?

    I'm 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 to help you resolve your issue.

When I called this afteroon to follow up if anyone was going to show - I was told, "No one is coming - Can't get you another appointment until the 23rd - and that's expedited" WHAT???? But my appointment was for YESTERDAY??? YOU DIDN'T SHOW UP. Why do I need a new 'expedited' appointment? AND, where was my phone call that you were NOT coming?
    Verizon - please... explain this customer careappraoch? especially for someone that needs the phone service for his safety and well being. We ONLY needed the phone turned on - This is appalling and should NEVER have happened. 
    Shame on you, Verizon.

    Since iOS 7.1 my phone won't turn on and is asking me to connect to iTunes. I connect to itunes and it says it needs to be restored. Not sure why. I try to restore it and then it says something went wrong and it won't work. So I've been without my phone for a couple days now. It gives me error code (29). The phone almost reboots and then 3/4 of the way through it gives me the error message.
