Changing an account holder

Hey there, I just seperated from my husband and I was in charge of the cable bill.  I now want to transfer our cable account from my name to his without worrying about shutting off the service and having a technicial come back out again.  Can verizon just change the billing person from my name to his? 
Any help would be very much appreciated... and thanks in advance.

Hello,
This depends on a few factors... here are some questions to consider and are normally reviewed:
Are you:
1) the sole account holder on the current bill?
2) moving to a new address and need to set up Verizon service for yourself at a new location?
3) currently under a 2-year agreement?
Is your husband:
1) willing to be the new account holder?
2) looking to reuse the same equipment (router/set top boxes) at the house?
3) keeping the same telephone number (if you currently have telephone service)?
4) keeping the same/similar TV/Internet/Voice package you currently have?
For a simple change of ownership on the account  both parties have to be agreeable to the switch.  A credit check would need to be performed for the new account holder.  If same equipment will be reused, a technician install would not be needed, just ensure that these are not moved and the cables are not unplugged. There would be a loss of service for a few hours, though.
However, if during the discussion, your husband decides he wants a completely new bundle with the higher speeds, and new equipment from the beginning, and is also particular about pricing/promotions, then this could likely necessitate setting up a brand new account under his name as well as a technician install.
If you are exiting from the account and the responsible party on the account is going to be your husband going forward, then Verizon would provide him the options available as a new customer also so that he can make the necessary choices for the services that he wants.
Please contact a Verizon representative when you are ready:
- 1-800-837-4966 (Customer Service)
- a local Verizon FiOS store: http://www22.verizon.com/support/residential/tv/fiostv/general+support/account+issues/questionsone/8...
Hope this helps!

  • How do u change the account holder in the app store

    How do you change the account holder in the app store? Thanks

    I'm not sure what you are actually asking, but if you mean how do you sign into another Apple ID - go to Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap the ID that you are signed into and sign out of that one, then sign in with the other ID. You can do this in the App Store as well, by going to the featured tab and swipe to the bottom of the screen. Tap on the ID there and sign out, then sign in with the other ID.
    You can't change the account holder of an iTunes account. The account is yours and yours alone. Someone else can use it, but you can't transfer ownership of the account.

  • Changing an account holder name

    Hi
    I live in a shared flat and the account holder for our BT account has moved out. Is there a way to simply change the account holder name, as we would still like all the payment details to remain the same?
    From looking at other posts it seems we would have to close the account and re-open another. Surely BT have a system for people living in shared houses, where I should imagine tenants change regularly. It seems ludicrous to have to close the whole account and then sign up again to the exact same package every time someone moves out?
    If anyone could clarify I would be grateful.
    Thanks

    I would use it as a great way to get a better deal, if you've had the same contract for more than 6 months you're likely to find a better deal when you call anyway, and as a new account can take advantage of a myriad of deals going at the moment!  Perfect, look at it as a positive, not a negative...
    You would have to take out a fresh 24 month contract changing almost anything on your account anyway, so even if they allowed changing details they would probably insist on a new contract term, however, these aren't difficult to escape from if you need to, just ask what the cancellation cost per month is (£1.50/month has been mine for years) if this is what is making you wary?

  • Changing the account holder on my phone account

    we returned from overseas 3 years ago and on our return we had our phone line connected. The problem began when my wifes card would not work when we paid over the phone to BT so my boss kindly used her card to open the account. Ever since that time the bill has always been in her name and not ours although we have paid by direct debit from our bank account from the start.
    We setup a broadband account with virgin but now would like to change to BT and have the BT account put in our name as i no longer work for this person or have any contact with them. BT have not been very helpfull with our problem and in the end i gave up ringing them. I did at one point tell them if i stopped paying the bill where would they go for the money as the account is not in my name which was replied with "we would then contact the account holder to sort out payment" all i want is the bill in my name??? And no i dont want to be cut off for ages and then be charged a reconnection fee on a line that i am still using!!
    Any ideas how i can sort this out???

    Hi Cliffandjayne,
    Thanks for the post and welcome to the forum.
    To have the account changed into your name I am afraid that you will need to cancel the current account and then setup a brand new order.  BT are unable to just change the name on an account as a credit check is required before service can be provided.
    Best bet would be to place a working line takeover.  This means that your service will continue to work as normal until we put the account in your name.  A working line takeover has a lead time of 11 working days. 
    As there is already a working line within the property you will not be charged for installation as no engineer will be required to carry out any work.  Once you place an order a credit check will be carried out on your name, you may have to pay a deposit for service which will be refunded after a while.  That really depends on the credit check result.
    Hope this info helps
    Cheers

  • Two icloud accounts, need to change default account holder

    My wife never uses her account and when I do to icloud to adust my notes her account opens by default how do I change that

    Hi Psalm1,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your wife may have added her iCloud account to your iPhone. If so, use these steps to remove her iCloud account from your device and sign in with your own:
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
    Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
    You can find these steps in this article:

  • You are not the account holder woes...

    Bit of a long story this...
    I used my email address to help my mum to sign up to BT about five years ago as she didn't have one. She has since left BT and uses another provider.
    I thought nothing at all of this when upon moving into my newly purchased home I signed up to BT for myself about a month ago, using the same email address as had been used all those years previous.
    I received the account number through the post and proceeded to sign up to myBT for online billing. On attempting this it stopped me as my email was already on the BT system. I used this address to log back into my mum's now long cancelled account and amended the email address of that one to another of my email addresses so as I could use my favoured address for the online billing. When I completed this registration it told me that I was not the account holder and that my mum was. 
    I used the chat help several times and was told that this was resolved within 7 days and to try again after that. I heard nothing and about 2 weeks later I have logged on to find the issue still remains. I again took to chat and the helper cancelled the myBT account connected to my mother's name (with the email address I didn't want to use) and told me it should now work. It didn't. Nothing changed.
    Tired of the chat service I then took to the phones. Three hours later and I have got nothing to show but a monumental phone bill (I do not have a phone to connect to the landline to take advantage of the 0800 service) so had to rely on the 0330 numbers. I have explained my problem to about 12 people, been kept on hold for over 30 mins, been promised a call back which never came, had an attempt to sell me additional services (insult to injury?!) and still nothing. Basically it now seems that nobody at all is the account holder and that nobody can access this profile.
    I can not access much of the myBT functionality and I can not watch BT Sport through the online service (literally the only reason I went with BT). The latest is that somebody will call me tomorrow although I am not going to hold my breath.
    This is the error I am getting... There is no option to change the account holder on the page, I can either click to go back a page or ring the number which I found of no use at all.
    Some of our services, such as the BT Wi-fi, BT Cloud and BT Sport Apps, are only available to the BT Account Holder. We may ask you to confirm if you are the Account Holder before you can use some BT services. You can check and change your Account Holder status on this page.
    You aren't the account holder
    - The account holder is *my mother's name*. 
    If you believe that you should be the account holder, please call 0800 800 150.
    I have access to two accounts...
    One in my mother's name using an email I don't want to use which is now (thanks to the BT employee on chat) not connected to any BT account. If I try and connect it using my account number it states that it willl be a guest account because *my mother's name* is the account holder. 
    One in my name with the email address I want to use. This is connected to the correct BT account but is again just a guest account with no access to the BT sport online app that I purchased the service for.
    I've paid for a year's line rental up front by credit card but before I call the bank and ask them to reverse this payment and cancel the direct debit for the monthly payment can anyone help at all? 
    Thoroughly cheesed off already.

  • Changing Account Holder Name

    The current account is in my mothers name as its her line but I'm the person who helps solve any issues and arranges bt infinity to be installed etc.
    If I go to MYBT there is a section "My Contact Details" and it lets you change the Name and Email address.
    If we change this to my name, will this mean if I phone up regarding any phone/bt inifinity issues that my name will be there as the account holder?
    Or is there a way to have my name added as an additional holder?
    Cheers!

  • Changing the Main Account Holder

    Would I be able to transfer ownership of the plan to my wife? We recently found that my wife could get a significantly better employee discount on our plan if she was the account holder. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies to this message.

    Tpulu, thanks for the inquiry. I understand why you would want to switch the account from your name to your wife's name to get a bigger discount. This is called an Assumption of Liability. Since the account is currently in your name, you would first need to call customer service at *611 or 800-922-0204 to authorize the request. Your wife will need to accept our terms and conditions for a 1 year contract. These can be found on vzw.com under Customer Agreement at the bottom of the page. She will then need to call our Assumption of Liability team at 888-832-4540 to get this completed.
    You and your wife can also visit a Verizon Wireless corporate store to get this completed also. Make sure you both take ID and she takes her work badge or a paycheck stub with personal info blacked out.

  • Can't access data after name change of account in Time Capsule

    I started using Time Capsule (TC). After transferring data to 3 different accounts. I noticed that the process of entering/ connecting to your account takes to much time. You have to connect every time to the account on TC. Because of this I changed the account names in the Airport Utility to shortened two lettre names. Unfortunately with great negative impact!
    I cannot access any data anymore. The new accounts are empty although I can see that there is still data on my TC because the available disk has not changed.Changing accountnames looks like you are creating new ones and blocking the access to the old ones.
    1) How can I retrieve the data?
    2) Can you create a 'super account' which can access all data of all accounts?

    How do you reset?
    Hi..
    What I wrote is my experience.. there is other opinions out there.
    See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2280
    What I experienced was that applying user profiles over existing files resulted in nothing being visible.
    But I am eggs spurt by self appointment only.. test everything.. hold to what is right.. reject the nonsense I will on occasion (unwittingly) spout.
    To answer your questions.. press the reset button for 1sec will reset all user profiles to default. A longer press and it will get rid of them completely.. You will go back to default settings.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    The no user profile option is device password.. or disk password.. when you press reset it will return to device password.. that is the default.
    Try what the reference above suggests.. but in my experience you cannot apply user profiles after copying material and still access it.

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Yes you can continue to use the former ID for the iTunes Store.
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

    Each time that you change your credit card details on your iTunes account a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.
