Blacklisted IP and no help from Verizon support

According to http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check my IP is listed with no less than 4 blacklist entities.
My browser was recently prevented from connecting to one of my own client sites (that website's host actually alerted me to this blacklisting), which has since been working, but I have no way of knowing how many other websites might deny access to my IP--or even if my outgoing emails are being denied.
BUT THIS IS NOT AN EMAIL ISSUE. This is a blacklisting issue.
Verizon support via Twitter has been ineffective and pointless:
"Since you have a dynamic IP, we're unable to whitelist your IP at this time. ^JGG"
And Verizon phone support consists of wading through phone menus, waiting 10 minutes to get someone and then listening to them read their script as they fumble around completely and utterly ignorant of what I'm talking about. And then getting disconnected--at least 3 times.
I don't CARE if my IP is "dynamic"; OBVIOUSLY my computer/connection is being IDENTIFIED by an IP that prevented me from visiting that site (and who knows how many others) and, thus, Verizon should be able to erase that from my connection and assign a new [dynamic] one.
All I've gotten so far are excuses, technobabble and stupidity. Anything, that is, but CUSTOMER SERVICE. I pay nearly $100 a month for this **bleep**.

All of Verizon's Dynamic IP's are blacklisted from Email lists.
Somegirl speaks wisely on this issue and is correct, IP's that are blacklisted from websites, are typically a result of an out of date bogon filter, and those filters are maintained by the site hosts not Verizon.   a "work around"  is to simply get a new ip address in a range that your website's host is not blocking.    a long term fix is engaging the site host (not the webmaster) and have them update their bogon filter lists. 
The blacklisted email thing, though, if that's the issue, then you can't get around that. 
In fact, that's such a common practice that this is what a Company has to say about blacklisted IP's that are Dynamic (this company is not associated with Verizon FYI,  but it shows the industry attitude about dynamic IP's for Email blacklisting)
http://cbl.abuseat.org/dynamic.html
  This IP address is dynamicAs we've mentioned earlier, CBL listings that interfere with legitimate email are almost ALWAYS as a result of virus-infected machines.
The difficulty with dynamic IP addresses is that you may not have had this IP address at the time the virus was infected, so there is nothing you can do to prevent a relisting. Furthermore, the next time you connect, you may well get a new IP address that's already listed.
This situation is particularly common with wireless portals.
So, here the best way to proceed is to avoid having the listing affect you, not remove the listing.
If you have a dynamic IP address, or even just a user of a large ISP, your ISP will have provided you with the name and/or IP address of a mail server you should use to send email. You should put this in your mail reader (or server in some cases) "smart host" or "outbound SMTP server" setting.
Once you do this, you shouldn't be bothered by CBL listings again, and there's no need to delist it.
Even if you could get the CBL to delist it (and we usually do when we're contacted the first time), it's not going to help much in the long run - not only will you likely run into a CBL listing again in the future, other DNSBLs (called "DUL"s) are listing _entire_ dynamic ranges, so the CBL is the least of your problems.
As one example, which we get asked many times about, the DirectWay wireless provider tells their users to set their "outbound SMTP server" to be "smtp.direcway.com". As it turns out, they don't seem to be interested in securing their wireless portal, and supply this to give their users a way around the CBL (and MANY other DNSBL) listings.
 Note to ISP staff:The CBL's users expect us to list demonstrably compromised machines. Even if they're dynamic. Do NOT ask us to permanently delist dynamic ranges or any other type of generic end-user pools, because we won't: no exceptions.
The only way you can avoid repeated CBL listings of dynamic IP addresses is to treat the network segment as a NAT'd LAN, and configure your routers to block outbound port 25 from all IP addresses in the range. See NAT information.
It's really pointless to permanently delist dynamic ranges, because "Dialup" DNSBLs (aka "DUL"s) list the whole range anyway.
Solution for email blacklisted customers is different.  configure your machines properly using Verizon's outbound SMTP smtp.verizon.com (ssl and port 465)    you will be subject to their spam policy's with that config, or get a 3rd party SMTP to use.

  • Problems because multiple AppleIDs and no help from iTunes Support

    I am a VERY frustrated owner of 9 separate Apple computers/iPads/iPods/iPhones.  Over time, I have been forced to change my AppleID on 3 separate occasions (non-e-mail to one with e-mail, non-me.com to an @me.com to move my mobile me to iCloud), and now my devices do not update apps unless I Sign into different accounts than my new primary iTunes Account...the one that I need to make the whole iCloud BS to work.
    It is VERY clear to me that there is very little coordination between depts at Apple, which with a VERY closed architecture is not a good thing.  All I want to do is shift prior purchases to my new primary AppleID but iTunes Support has been no help to date.  That only adds fuel to the fire as my Apple ownership experience has already been less than stellar.  Candidly, I are ready to move back to the Windows world and sell my new iPhone 4S to get an Android phone.  They seem to be advancing a lot faster anyway from what I can see and it would be pretty awesome to be able to view a Flash video again.
    Aside from the aforementioned rant, has anyone else had problems with iTunes multiple accounts issue and upgrading to iOS 5?

    I am having problems with the password for computer, itunes, icloud, apple ID.and since the apple tv update yesterday, I spent lots of time trying to sort it all out. Today I called Apple  support, and he helped me make necessary changes so remote in ipad, iphone and apple tv worked with the different passwords changed to one.
    Several hours later it is rejected in all devises for home sharing and I get an errorfile://localhost/Users/barance/Desktop/Screen%20Shot%202011-10-25%20at%206 .39.41%20PM.png

  • IPhone 5 Data and no help from Verizon Customer Serv!

    My boyfriend and I both have the iPhone 5, and an iPad on my account. We upgraded his on the iPad line since it was up for an upgrade. He got his.. and is blowing thru gb's but no big deal, he has unlimited. I had unlimited as well, got my iPhone 5 this week on Monday. I work 8-7 so I'm rarely on the internet or any data using apps on my phone. I started getting messages about using my data, but thought nothing of it, as Verizon sent these to me about a year ago and told me it was a mistake. So today I got a message that I am over my data and receiving over charges!!! So I call- BAM! We took you off your unlimited plan- nope we cannot put you back, it was grandfathered... hi um ya, I never said to take it off, nor did I agree to that... The rep says it was on social media and I should have known this.. I may be unlike the rest of the universe apparently, but I pay 0 attention to social media. Then she says the rep who upgraded my phone should have told me this.. well he did not, actually we discussed my plan (per me asking if their was a way to reduce the bill) and he suggested keeping my unlimited plan..and took my iPhone 5 order! So, since she offered me ZERO resolution or help, I asked for a supervisor.. who was as concerned about my issue as a sack of potatoes! She said you can return your iPhone 5 back to us(I would have to pay the shipping)and we can REQUSET that you have your original plan back, but we cannot guarantee that you will get it back. So I say.. You're telling me that a multi-million dollar company is taking something away, does not have to tell me it is happeneing, and opposed to wanting to keep consumers you would rather me send the device back and not re-new my service for 2 years? That does not seem like customer service, loyalty, or good business to me. She yells.. you can send it BACK and we can try to put your plan back! I had enough at that point- Filed a complaint with the FCC...
    Gave myself a few hours to calm down.. in the mean time letting my FB community know Verizon screwed me and to be careful. In which time about 6-9 friends text me telling me they upgraded to whatever device and are getting these charges!!!! SO YOU FAIL TO TELL EVERYONE HUH... WOW... So apparently I am not the only one who was not aware of this when placing the order, and oh yea missed it on social media because you have to listen/watch social media to balance your personal Verizon account... NOT
    So I try to call Verizon again to be logical and change my plan since I'd rather not argue with Verizon over a 1,000$ bill for my overages.. This rep tells me I should switch to the 8gb plan, which will actually save us about 30$ a month!! SOUNDS GREAT RIGHT...... Followed by me asking (since the bf has the NFL app and is on it all the time..) How much data does the other =line use? ..... Well he used 6.8gb......ok and I had 2gb... and I went over... lets count this out folks.. 6.8+2= OVER 8! Then that is not even including the data the iPad uses!!
    Basically... I am screwed! I can give back the iPhone 5.. that I have every right to have... and pay out the rear for data... or I can give it back to Verizon, and *HOPE* they give me my plan back! In my opinion.. this is a bunch of CRAP!

    I also did not know about this change before I ordered the iPhone 5. I ordered the phone on-line and it let me choose the same plan I was already on with unlimited data before I placed the order. Now they are basically saying, "too bad." Did you ever get this resolved?

  • Aspect ratio issues with SD box and no help from Verizon

    I just renewed my  2 year contract which included a free box but a billing screwup resulted in repeated charges for the box. A CS rep credited the account and said I had the wrong box and she would send out a new one. 
    i had a 7100 Motorola HD box. I have an older television set (that cannot control aspect ratio) and I have never had HD service but this was the box I was sent by Verizon as part of my contract. Why they felt it had to be changed I don't know, but ..... the box they sent was a 2500 SD box which does not give me an acceptable picture.
    It's totally random. Some channels are 16:9. Some are overzoomed 4:3. The FIOS channel bar at the bottom is partially off the screen and the content is clipped around the edges. Commercials are totally random in size and appearance.
    The # key on the remote does not work. There is no option in Settings to change the aspect ratio. 
    CS was ZERO help. They concluded that I had to either deal with the scattershot image sizes and clipped image content or go buy another television. SERIOUSLY VERIZON?
    I couldn't get an answer as to why the box I was sent by Verizon as part of my original contract that provided a perfectly acceptable image had to be replaced with a box that doesn't provide squat.  I have had Verizon service for  approximately 7 years with this same television and this is the first time I've been given a box that can't produce an acceptable image and a remote that can't resize. So why now?
    This smells like a bait and switch, or an attempt to get customers to pay for an upgraded box for a service they don't want  just to get an acceptable picture.  I live in an urban area and there is plenty of older equipment in these homes. So are customers like myself just being told even though you pay a significant amount of money for a Triple Play you are only getting 2 parts of the service?
    I find it hard to believe there isn't some way to make the box or the remote change the image size. Can anyone help?

    why do so many topics go to private section?  we need to see how it's responded to in case we have the same problem..
    but yes, our 2500 sd box, basically the 4:3 standard non HD box broadcasts to fit a 4:3 TV.. now some channels will have the black bars on top and bottom to accommodate the 16:9 aspect ratio..  you'll notice this if you run the 2500 box on a flat screen.. if you have it in 16:9 ratio on a flat screen it looks stretched.. the only way to watch regularly is in 4:3 mode.. which basically has the image with bars on all sides.. or you can zoom it and lose a portion of the image.. but it's because the box thinks you're using a 4:3 sd tv so the boxes appear on top and bottom so it can still fit the wider image it's filmed in.. so with flat screens you need the HD box i guess..  unless there is something i'm missing but there isn't a setting that i can find to change how the box exports the image for a flat screen or 4:3.   I know the HD boxes have an 'SD Override' option.. which i guess tells the box you're not using a 4:3 tv anymore.. but that option is not on the 2500 SD box.. believe me i looked..  but this is all in reverse for your issue anyhow as you're having trouble with the SD box on an SD TV...  which yeah, if you run SD the quality of picture is not as good as the HD programming.. so please let us know what they say to do for you.

  • Illustrator crashes on startup and little help from Adobe support team

    Hello everyone,
    I would like to share here my frustation trying to install Illustrator on a Windows XP machine and the poor support I got from Adobe.
    After download and installing, the application can be launched, splash screen comes, then the main window, and then it crashes with the message "Adobe illustrator CS5 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
    I opened a ticket on the customer support page with detailed information on the error, including the error log. Error signature was:
    "AppName: illustrator.exe AppVer: 15.0.0.399 ModName: sccore.dll
    ModVer: 4.1.23.7573 Offset: 0001b2b6"
    The answer to my ticket was given 10 days (!) later was:
    "You can find informations to solve the issue under:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/822/cpsid_82252.html"
    Which drives to a big page full of various symptoms and solutions in which I am supposed to dig in order to solve the problem myself.
    If you encountered such crash at launching Illustrator and found a solution, I would be very thankful that you give me some hints.
    Regards,
    Fred.

    I've been having a similar problem recently.  Purchased CS5 Web Premium upgrade last month, loaded it, worked with AI a number of times, then all of a sudden out of the blue, I have the same problem as described above.  Message is Adobe Illustrator CS5 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We ar sorry for the inconvenience.
    The little window that displays this problem  has two options: Send error report or don't send.  Here is what is odd: If I choose to ignore the window altogether and not choose either option, I am able to do things in Illustrator.  I can open a file, select an object, change it, save the file...  All with this annoying window floating in front of everything.
    I figured something had gone corrupt so I uninstalled the entire CS5 suite, reinstalled the entire suite.  Guess what... same problem.  Very frustrating.  If it is a fonts problem, my question would be why is only Adobe Illustrator having a problem with it and not the CS5 suite components?
    Any insights would be most appreciated...

  • We used to have great service, now it sucks! Constantly dropping calls, dead areas that have never been dead. Getting fed up and getting no help from Verizon.

    This is really getting old, no help from Verizon. Service was great 2 years ago now it sucks, Constantly dropping calls, dead areas where there used to be fine. What is verison doing to help this???

    I have an iphone 5s, my husband has a casio, my sister in law has a Samsung, my friends have various phones we are all experiencing the same thing – dropped calls, no service and it is outside as well as inside the house or the car. At our residence and along the drive to work or to the store. I don’t text much or use my data much so I am mostly concerned with the telephone service.

    qHow do u get help from apple support with iChat? I was able to chat with support last week to solve my problem but now the same issue is back and I don't see the option to chat now?

    For what it is worth I have noticed a similar issue from the iPad3 while at work and home. At work we have two Apple TV 3rd Generation installed and tied to our A/V system. I believe the issue has to do with a timeout on the broadcast saying "here I am" and allowing devices to connect.
    For example:
    At work we have several Wi-Fi SSID being broadcast from Cisco APs. The only one we can use with the Apple TV is the one that uses a WEP since the others are either setup to be hidden, require web page authentication, or have a login requirement from employees. Essentially, what I believe the issue is that the Apple TV periodically broadcasts a message to other iOS devices that support Mirroring. When the Apple TV does not get a response from a device it goes into a dormant mode and requires either a command from the remote control or a reboot. This has been tested with both the power management enabled and not enabled with the same results.
    As for when I come home, the Apple TV3 has not seen the device in some time and therefore is not broadcasting it's location information. A simple click of the circle or menu keys on the remote will give it the command to start broadcasting again and allow the iPad3 to see the Apple TV. When trying to Home Share the computer can not play (iTunes 11, Win8RTM) until the Apple TV is awoken then it will show up for mirroing.
    This may or may not assist you but, it hopefully explains how the issue may be happening.

    Hola scj2000-
    Muchas gracias por visitar nuestro foro en búsqueda de una explicación al cargo que recién apareció en tu tarjeta de crédito.
    Entiendo su preocupación, ya que cualquier cargo extraño que aparece en un estado de cuenta puede ser alarmante. En este caso, el último cargo que puede recuperar usando el correo electrónico que usaste para registrarte al foro, refleja que se renovó un antivirus Kaspersky. Esta autorización nos diste cuando realizaste la compra de tu Lenovo, desde entonces se renueva automáticamente la licencia de antivirus.
    Las otras publicaciones que has leído, indican lo mismo. Un cargo que se ha hecho a la tarjeta de crédito que se presentó durante la compra con la autorización del cliente.
    Lamento mucho la confusión y espero esto aclare tu duda.
    Atentamente,

  • Connection problem on Ipad3 and Iphone 4S after receiving assistance from verizon support

    How do I fix this? I spoke to "expert tech" about how my Verizon email suddenly converted to Yahoo - which I didn't like. Unfortunately in his remedy to fix I lost my server connection to my IPad and Iphone in addition to all of previous read and unread emails, folders etc... Now I can't even use my Ipad to check emails. Can't seem to find a way to talk to a support person via "help" b/c cannot seem to access a support person. I'm not happy right now. In fact, I'm frustrated and extremely disappointed.. The support did not seem to really know anything and as a result I'm starting fresh after losing 3 years of data. I I did however, get back my Verizon email acct but at a huge cost. Now why did my connection fail on my other devices and how do I fix it? Please anyone please help!!!! I don't want to mess with the Ipad for fear of losing more info. This really sucks. I know there had to be a better solution.

    First off Yahoo Mail has nothing to do with Verizon Email. However lets clarify something first. When you say verizon email are talking about an email account established through Verizon Fios, DSL ? Or are you referring to the email program that is native to the iPad and iPhone?
    In the set up of your email accounts with the mail programs you go to settings, mail-contacts-calendar, then click add account, it then gives you options to set up your pop3 email or exchange email, or msn, aol, etc.
    If you use Verizon.com for an email address you would click on pop email, then put in the information for that account.
    normally its your email address ([email protected] or [email protected]) of which the proper settings are available from the Verizon Fios or DSL internet site. You enter the smtp server info you were given from verizon in the space provided, and you then enter the pop3 server information in the proper spot. You finish up by entering your email password in the setup settings and click save.
    Setting up for yahoo,man,aol mail is much simplier since all it requires is your email address and password and the setup program for these web based email fills in the incoming and outgoing smtp server info for you.
    Always remember to make sure the "remove from server" option is not checked since it then becomes device dependent where if you leave it on the server you can retrieve from any browser the emails without losing them.
    Good Luck

  • NO HELP FROM VERIZON - Parental Controls/Family Safety

    I need to change the parental controls on my daughter's account with MSN provided by Verizon.  But, parental controls no longer exist.  So, I'm directed to "Family Safety".  In order to get to "Family Safety" I'm directed to remove parental controls from my daughter's account.  I click on the button to remove parental controls and get an error message "The page you have requested does not exist, has moved, or is temporarily down."  After trying with on-line support from Verizon for about 1/2 hour, the person helping me said I needed to call Verizon for assistance.  So, I call Verizon for assistance.  After being on the phone for 40 minutes with a tech support person, the answer I get back is that "we no longer support parental controls and if you need assistance you have to go to a local technician".  Or, I can call MSN.  So, I get the phone number for MSN who refer me back to Verizon.  I don't see how a "local technician" (the person I talked to said to take my computer in to somebody for them to help) can really assist with a service provided by MSN and Verizon!  This is absolutely crazy.  Has anyone else had this issue and actually received help?  If so, can you tell me what worked?

    Hi Annoyed2,
    Sorry about the experience you have had thus far.  We have discontinued the MSN portal partner service.  We no longer support the MSN email service.  The change was made by Microsoft to upgrade to MSN Live.  I do apologize for the inconvenience. 
    Thank you for choosing Verizon.

  • ITunes Plus Upgrade--No help from iTunes Support

    I appologize for this lengthy post. Believe me I have more to the story, but want to keep it as short as possible. Bottom line is I'm looking for help with iTunes plus upgrade please.
    My specific problem is getting customer support to upgrade my old iTunes songs iTunes to iTunes plus so I can use them on our new Sonos player. It’s now been almost a week since this issue arose and there has been no help in getting my problems solved. My main problem is that there is no telephone customer support for iTunes. All of the support for iTunes is now done online through emails. That is a huge issue in my mind, but not the purpose for this post.
    Here is my problem..
    I have two iTunes accounts. Account # 1 was my primary account until 2008/09 time frame when I switched from a PC to Macbook Pro. I have 314 songs from 2006-08 that were purchased on Account #1 that I'm trying to upgrade to iTunes Plus. Account #2 is now my primary iTunes account. The Account #2 songs are all iTunes plus and do not need upgrading. I now have all the purchases from both accounts on my Mac Mini serving as a HTC, but the old iTunes DRM songs cannot be played on Sonos until they get upgraded.
    My issue solely relates to my old songs on Account #1. I have been trying to upgrade my account 1 songs since last Thursday. My iTunes store account is currently logged into Account 1 when attempting the updgrade. When I first made the purchase, I got the on screen message that I’d get an email with instructions to complete the purchase. Well three days passed and I never got the email. I also noticed that my purchase of $104 showed up as three “pending” credit card charges on my bank account records. This seemed odd so I called Apple for help. Big mistake!!!!!
    When I attempted to call Apple Support I was continually given to “technical support” for either my Macbook or Mac Mini. They never listened to what I was saying. In fact one rep told me I would need to pay the $39 fee for technical support on my issue!!!! Finally, after speaking to three different individuals one of the “tech support” reps was able to contact an iTunes support rep. Note, that I could not speak to them, rather it was strictly apple employee to apple employee. I was placed on hold for thirty minutes while they worked on my issue. After thirty minutes I was told to go to the iTunes store and start over. I went to iTunes store and completed the purchase again. Shortly thereafter, I received an email response from iTunes saying:
    Dear Tom,
    Your iTunes Plus music upgrade could not be successfully completed because there was a problem with one of the items that was to be upgraded. Please return to your Upgrade My Library page and click Buy and your upgrade should be processed successfully. We are sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your business.
    Sincerely,
    iTunes Store Team
    Based on this email. I went to iTunes store again and tried the purchase….again. I then got the same email response a short time later. I have attempted two other times to buy the upgrades but got no email responses at all. Late Sunday, I called Apple again and also used their online iTunes support page. I got one response late Sunday evening asking a question about error messages, I answered their question by providing them the above iTunes notice. That email late Sunday night was the last communication I've recieved from iTunes support. It’s now three days later and I’m still waiting to hear back from someone at iTunes support. All I want to do is spend 104 dollars to upgrade my 300+ songs, but no one at Apple seems to care.
    I am really disappointed in Apple’s customer service. I’ve been a fan of Apple for quite some time, between my wife and I, we have 6 Apple products in our home. The lack of customer support is really disgraceful.
    Anyone have any ideas.

    This is a follow up. Finally, after almost 72 hours, I recieved another email from the original iTunes support representative. According to her, the problem is that one or more of my songs on the account are either not eligible for the upgrade or the file is corrupted and can not be upgraded. In short I cannot use the "Buy All" feature because I will always hit this roadblock. The only way to resolve this, is to upgrade each song individually or select a few songs at a time to upgrade.
    I will have to do this until I get the song or songs that is causing the problem. Once I have identified the song(s), I can chose to repurchase them and get a refund. All songs today are at the DRM free format so repurchased songs will automatically be the upgraded file.
    So I'll now begin the upgrade of the 314 songs. I guess it could be worse.
    Okay, I got an answer and an offer of a refund, but this answer certainly could have been provided three days ago. Am I being unreasonable?

  • Have tried connecting my email account to my iPad...have had help from tech support from my server....everything on advance set up is correct, but iPad still says my username or password is incorrect.  Anyone have any other suggestions?  Tired of

    I have tried connecting my email account to my iPad, had help from my phone company/server tech support.  Everything is correct in the advanced settings...but my iPad STILL says my user name &amp; password are incorrect.  Any other suggestions?

    I interesting note:
    MAILBIRD uses port 993 for incoming mail but THUNDERBIRD uses port 143
    When uses 143, it kept " checking capabilities...."
    then I changed to port 993 (like in MAILBIRD), it said "connected to.....mail," but then "timed out"
    Any idea please???? help....extremely frustrated...

  • Just had the most awful experience with cleanmymac2.  I just had research files "cleaned"?no help from customer support - please advise software to restore files

    I just had 3 years of research "cleaned" by cleanmymac2 - due to poor instructions/information.  Customer support just told me what software I should buy to restore the files they destroyed. Would appreciate any suggestions on how I might possibly retrieve my files?  Thanks

    If you have a backup that you created prior to using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it. For Time Machine, boot OS X Recovery, and at the Mac OS X Utilities screen, choose Restore from Time Machine Backup. Choose a date preceding the installation of CleanMyMac.
    If you do not have a backup, create one now, verify that it is a viable backup of your essential software and files, then erase your Mac completely, reinstall OS X and your essential software. When you reinstall your essential software, you must do so from their original sources, not from a backup that may have been corrupted.
    Nothing less than erasing your Mac and rebuilding it from the ground up will undo the effects of having used CleanMyMac, and its developer's instructions for uninstalling it are not completely effective.
    I know no other way to recover from having used CMM other than the recommendations above.

  • Presenter error after pressing video record. Third attempt to receive help from customer support.

Video recording works fine with other software. I'm using a Dell Optiplex 990, 64bit operating windows 7 system. I record with the built-in camera on the DELL U2212HM monitor. Drivers are up to date. I sent in error reports (two times; a third time following this post) over the previous 2 months and have heard nothing back from customer support.

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Support.
    Do you have External Graphics Card ?
    Make sure you have the latest Graphics Drivers (http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/Product/optiplex-990)
    Did you try recroding wth Adobe Presenter 8 with a different user account on your computer ?
    Thanks,
    Vikram

  • Installation Nightmare and no help from customer service

    I just spent July 2, 3, 5 from 11a-6p and Saturday July 6 from 8-2 waiting for installation of my fios service in my new apartment.  When i called them to let them know I was moving they insisted it was available at my new location.  When the tech got there at 2 on 7/2, the wiring was not done in the apartment and they needed the help of another type of guy who works for a sub contractor.  They called that tech, who said he was coming by the end of the day and he never showed up.  This happened again on Wednesday and Thursday.  I spent three days of my summer vacation in my house with three kids waiting for someone who had no intention of coming.  I called customer service three times and finally got a supervisor on Saturday am who told me they could not tell me if that outside contractor was ever going to show up.  They apologized, but thats it.  I asked to cancel my service and they were shocked.  I had no service anyway.  So they transfer me to a relief agent, who was also sympathetic, but told me the chances of the outside contractor showing up were slim and none and that they could schedule me for the end of the following week. That would make it two weeks with no phone/internet/tv but even worse, my vacation was over. I can't even describe how upset I am about losing precious time with my three small children.  They finally showed up as I was walking out the door with the three kids to go to the beach and they came walking in.  I have not received any kind of help from customer service other than for them to tell me they have no control over their subcontrator. I don't know what to say other than it was  a total nightmare. For what I pay for service for the past five years I expected a lot more of them
