Do you prefer to interact with Verizon through our Self Service tools or our centers?

Our research shows that customers appreciate the flexibility and access that our self service tools provicde and as such they often prefer to interact with us through our various self service tools
How about you?

It depends on the task at hand. For repairs or troubles I often times will use the call centers or other means of communicating to perform a task. Otherwise, actions such as monifying account settings I tend to do online. More convenient that way.

Oracle HR Contingent worker termination through Manager Self service

Hi All,
My requirement is to terminate contingent workers through Manager Self-Service.
Does the Termination function handle contingent workers as well ? Or is there a separate function for contingent worker termination ?
Thanks,
Sr

Yes,
Termination function handles contingent workers as well
You can try it in TEST instance

Interacting with perl through java.

I'm trying to do something with Java that I haven't managed to do until now. I'm trying to interact with a perl process giving him input and reading output.
I have a perl module that has several functions and the idea is to launch a process in a java program with the following line :
perl -e 'while(<STDIN>) { eval $_ ; }'
and then give the process the necessary input and the read the given output.
For instance with the above line you can do the following:
[user@host ~]$ perl -e 'while(<STDIN>) { eval $_ ; }'
print "Hello World\n";
Hello World
Here is the code I'm using:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
public class ExecProgram {
private static Runtime runtime;
private static Process process;
public static void main(String[] args) {
     runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
     try {
     process = runtime.exec("/usr/bin/perl -e 'while(<STDIN>) { eval $_ ; }'");
          process = runtime.exec(cmd);
     } catch (IOException e) {
          System.err.println("Error executing process");
     PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(process.getOutputStream());
     String commandLine = "print \"Hello World\n\"";
     out.println(commandLine);
     BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
     try {
     String line;
     while ((line = in.readLine()) != null)
          System.out.println("Output: "+line);
     } catch (IOException e) {
     System.err.println("Error reading output");
As you can see I'm using Runtime class to interact with the process but nothing happens if replace the exec line with:
process = runtime.exec("ls");
I can see in the output the listing of the current directory.
Have you ever tried something like this? Is this the correct way for doing this?

Have you ever tried something like this? I have. Here's a rough sample:
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        String[] cmd = new String[]{
            "/usr/bin/perl",
            "-e",
            "while(<>){ eval or die $@; }"
        final Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
        new Thread(){
            public void run(){
                try{
                    BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
                    for(String line; (line = r.readLine()) != null; System.out.println("ProcessOUT:: "+line));
                catch (Throwable t){
//                    t.printStackTrace();
        }.start();
        new Thread(){
            public void run(){
                try{
                    BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()));
                    for(String line; (line = r.readLine()) != null; System.err.println("ProcessERR:: "+line));
                catch (Throwable t){
//                    t.printStackTrace();
        }.start();
        new Thread(){
            public void run(){
                try{
                    OutputStream out = p.getOutputStream();
                    for(int ii = 0; ii < commands.length; ii++){
                        System.err.println("Sending command: "+commands[ii]);
                        out.write(commands[ii].getBytes());
                        out.write('\n');
                        out.flush();
                catch (Throwable t){
//                    t.printStackTrace();
        }.start();
        int exit = p.waitFor();
        System.err.println("Process exited with code: "+exit);
    static final String[]
        commands = {
            "print \"The road goes ever\\n\";",
            "print \"ever\\n\";",
            "print \"on.\\n\";",
            "exit 13;"
    ;

How do i get in touch with Verizon when I'm out of the country?I am in Ecuador and cannot get in touch with Verizon to end my service!

We moved to Ecuador and need to get in contact with Verizon to end our service. The number they provided does not work. ONE time it worked. I dont know why it doesnt now. Also the chat line is not ever available when I am on line.
When I did talk they said they ended my service and that I just needed to pay the $200 to end the contract. But when i go on line to my bill, they are charging me another months usage it looks like. I dont know what to do anymore. any suggestions?

This link gives a 24 hour support number. http://m.prnewswire.com/news-releases/did-you-know-verizon-wireless-customer-support-travels-with-you-98413889.html

Wow, what is up with Verizon and their customer service?

This company is becoming a joke. Customer Service use to be decent years ago but they are going downhill, fast. First thing, the late release on the Note 4? Why? Second... Why are they taking the headphones out of the Note 4? For the price we pay we should get what is included in the box. Third... Two day shipping on preorders, not overnight especially when they are releasing a week late. Fourth, I call CS before I preordered the Note 4 and was told I couldn't preorder it until the 23rd, a few days went by until I found out that wasn't true. If I don't get mine by the 25th because it ends up getting backordered I'll be furious. If any other carrier had service at my house I would already be with them.

You know Ann there are other people out there who do things differently than you do... I for one use earphones with my phone all the time, when im exercising, working, mowing the lawn, etc. and in my experience those that come with the phone tend to be of very nice quality.

Jdeveloper 10.1.3.3 with E-Business Suite Self Service

Hi,
I am looking to create some extra JSP pages to add extra functionality to the Oracle E-Business Suite Self Service Pages (10g database). I have been told that it is not possible to do this with JDeveloper 10.1.3 and that we will need to use JDeveloper 9 with patches.
Is this correct? or can I use JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 to develop new pages to add onto Manager and Employee Self Service pages?
Many Thanks
Martin

Thanks Brenden,
If we have several clients with different apps levels/patches applied, does this mean we will need to have a version of JDeveloper for each client?
I have been directed to metalink note 416708.1, and I think I will need to downlaod JDEV9, but when I go to the JDeveloper download site on OTN it only lets me downlaod versions 10.1.3 and 10.1.2, where can I download this from?
Many Thanks
Martin

Sharepoint 2013 SSRS Interaction with Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services connecting to Sql Server 2008 R2 database

Hi
I'm working on upgrading sharepoint 2010 to sharepoint 2013 with sql server 2008 r2. I've ran into some problems but have been able to get a test farm upgraded. However to run SSRS 2013 it seems Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services are required. Upgrading
to a full sql server 2012 database isn't an option. I know that sql server 2012 reporting services can use sql server 2008 r2 as a catalog and content database so I was wondering could this be a workaround? Importantly would I need a separate machine/virtual
machine to host sql server 2012 reporting services? or could it live on the sql server 2008 r2 machine? Any pointers appreciated. Thanks Dan

Remember that SSRS must be deployed on the SharePoint server. Having said that, yes you can install SSRS 2012 SP1 on a server running SQL 2008 R2. And yes, you can use 2008 R2 as your Database Engine server while SSRS 2012 SP1 runs on the SharePoint server.

How to check Sub-ordinates Training (Courses) through Manager Self Service

There is a tab by the name of "Training" that is not shown on the screen. However, with the help of Personalization, I have rendered it "Ture" both at "Link" structure and "Table" structure. In spite of it, desired Tab is not shown on the Screen.
Actually manager want to see what trainings and courses have been attended by their sub-ordinates.

It sounds like your best bet will be to create a custom responsibility for the Learner and the Manager where you only include the Learner Home function. You could also personalize out the buttons that provide the ability to add or update external Learning events.
The Oracle Learning Management Administrator responsibility is able to add an external learning event from the Learner tab under Learner History. Search for the Learner you wish to add the external learning event for and expand the External Learning section. Click the Create button to add the event.
If you've chosen to remove the External Learning function completely for Learners and Managers, they will still be able to view the events that you add in as an Administrator from the Learning History tab. If you've chosen to just personalize out the create button and make the view section read-only, they'll also be able to see the event in their External Learning section.
You could also consider turning approvals on for the external learning so that managers would have to approve anything that an employee entered (the process to modify is OTA_EXT_LRNG_JSP_PRC - you need to switch the HR_APPROVAL_REQ_FLAG from "No" to "Yes" in the workflow).
I hope this helps!

How do you get a RESPONSE from Verizon?

How does one get a response from Verizon? Here's my situation...
Given the amount of trouble that I have had with a recent order, you would think that I was trying to land a 747 jet on my roof. In reality, all I was aiming to do was to cancel the $19.99 per month phone service that I never used. I do not even own a phone, for that matter. I also had enhanced high speed Internet, and I wanted to retain the high speed Internet. A few days before January 13, 2012, I called Verizon and spoke to the 1st sales representative, who ensured me that it was no problem to cancel the phone service and yet retain the high speed Internet for the same monthly price. 24 hours later, my high speed DSL service was no longer functioning. I will try to briefly explain the disastrous customer service that ensued.
The first several phone calls to Verizon were not productive as I was transferred to the wrong department, and then at least one of my phone calls was dropped by the Verizon server. The representative did not call me back. I finally got in touch with a technical support representative, the 2nd Verizon representative, who informed me that the high speed Internet had been turned off and that I had to speak to a sales representative to solve the issue. Another sales representative, the 3rd Verizon representative, informed me that the 1st representative had cancelled my phone line, and thus cancelled all of my services. Great. The 3rd representative informed me that he was absolutely capable of handling the problem and that he would simply add a new order for high speed Internet, which was to be activated the next morning. The next morning came and went, and guess what? No Internet. I called again. The 4th Verizon representative told me that everything that had been done previously was incorrect and that the sales department is not capable of making such changes. She told me that she could not help me and that my claim had to be submitted to a different department, which has the authority to un-do all of the previous changes. She told me that I would receive a call back the same day to resolve the issue. Given my previous experiences with Verizon, I was confident that I would not, in fact, receive a call back and so I asked her how I could get transferred to this department, if I needed to call again. She said that I could not be transferred. Okay. So then I asked her what to ask for so that next time I called, I could be transferred to the correct department without dealing with yet another sales representative who gives me yet a different story. She informed me that she could not provide that information to customers. The Department That Shall Not Be Named (and that I cannot contact) did not call me, and I was not surprised. Unfortunately, I did not know how to go about contacting them, because, as I was told, customers aren’t allowed to do that.
The 6th phone call to Verizon was dropped by the Verizon server. The 7th phone call to Verizon went to the 5th Verizon representative, a sales associate who placed us on hold for the first 15 minutes only to inform us that she could not find any record of our Internet service. What the heck was she doing, checking her Facebook account? She finally returns, puts us on another extended hold, and then adamantly tells us that we need to speak with technical support, which, if you recall, was the first Verizon party that I spoke at the beginning of this debacle. The 5th representative transfers me again to technical support. Of course, the technical support personnel, the 6th Verizon representative said what the first one did, that the account was inactive and that we needed to talk to the sales department. My husband was on the phone at this point because I was DONE. When the 6th technical support representative tried to transfer him back to the sales department, my husband insisted that the 6th technical support representative remain on the line while we spoke to yet another sales representative, the 7th Verizon representative. The 6th technical support representative patiently waited with us while we sat in yet another long queue to speak with a member of the sales department.
The 7th sale representative, from the retention department based out of New Jersey, found that all previous orders had been set up erroneously. She cancelled the old orders and reinstated a completely new order. The DSL began working a few days later. MAGIC. She then left me a voicemail message saying that she would eliminate the activation and shipping fee (duh) as I never canceled the account to begin with and as I already had the equipment. She also applied a coupon to reduce the price to around $30 per month, assured for the next 2 years. I was relieved.
You can imagine our frustration then when we received the bill for $79 on February 6, 2012, which included a much higher monthly rate (around $45) and the shipping and activation fee of $19.99 that we were assured we would not pay. Again, nothing was shipped to us because we already had the equipment.
Our next phone call to Verizon landed us with a guy, the 8th Verizon representative, who had no intention of helping us. According to him, there was no record of these wrongs, and despite the fact that we had an old account number and three order numbers that were screwed up, he did not deem that there was enough evidence to change our monthly bill. (Unfortunately, the 7th Verizon representative did not make notes or appropriately document the situation on the new account.) The 8th Verizon representative then had the audacity to comment that we could be lying to him, yet he was unwilling to view the evidence that we could have presented. Instead, he suggested that we call tech support again and try to go through the same process to get connected to the mysterious “retention department” which he knew nothing about.
At this point, I was beyond fed up. The attitude of the 8th Verizon representative put me over the edge. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) with an abbreviated version of this story. I did not file the complaint to get back at Verizon. Instead, I filed the complaint because I knew that another phone call to Verizon would be useless. I’ve been dealing with this issue for over a month, and I’m sick of it. I have better things to do with my time, believe it or not, and this situation has resulted in a significantly waste of my time over what, in my opinion, was a very simple issue to resolve.
The BBB processed the complaint and I was contacted last Friday afternoon by a Verizon representative (the 9th) who said that she was looking into the matter and that she would respond to me within two to three business days. Well, it’s almost the end of the week, and I have received no response. Again, after all of this, how could I be surprised?
I have been a Verizon customer, wireless and residential, for as long as I can remember, but I am reaching the point of outrage. This situation is truly unacceptable.
You would think that, in 2012, with all of the technology available to us and the fact that Verizon is a COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY, that at least Verizon employees would be able to make a basic change to an existing order and that at least one out of 9 Verizon representatives would be able to solve this issue in a span of over four weeks. Think again.

Yes, it indeed boggles the mind. I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services. This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services. As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums. You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.

I'm fed up with verizon

I am seriously considering changing providers..... I broke my phone and all verizon has to offer is oh well....we can sell you a new phone at full price.... I have been with them for about 14 years and all I have seen is an increase on my bill. It is up to about 220$ a month for 2 phones. Last month I tried to add my employers , employee discount and all I got was a run around from the phone to the website back to the phone to oh we'll we're sorry. Still no discount.. I checked out AT&T and sprint today, holy crap.... I can get more for less $..... Seem to be much more interested in getting customers than Verizon is trying to keep customers. I was even trying to contact some one at Verizon to explain my unsatisfactory ness, and to no avail nothing, so here I am.....

Do you have insurance on your device? If so you can probably use it to get a new phone. You'll have to call it in as lost. If you report it stolen you need to have a police report and its a hassle. Also if you are that unhappy with verizon you might want to check the coverage of other carriers in your area. I recently switched from Verizon to T-mobile and have been very happy with the coverage but I am in San Diego and T-mo has been very aggressive over the past 12 moths with cell towers in my area. If you do decide to go make sure and check out the Nexus 5! Its an awesome device and will only run you $350 off contract full price for the 16gig model. That along with unlimited everything for $70 monthly no contract sure makes T-mobile look like a sweet deal.Good luck with your choice and make sure to check out your insurance options and coverage before you do anything drastic.
Good luck

Why do I only have 1x service this morning and cannot send texts or get service while everyone else around me with verizon have full coverage?

My phone was working at 8:00 AM this morning and now it only gets 1x coverage and I cannot make any calls or texts and I have no internet service. Everyone else has full coverage that has Verizon and I want to know why. I already reset my network settings.

Why would you think a problem with Verizon when you have already stated everyone else with Verizon has full coverage?
Have you updated your iPhone to the new iOS 8/8.0.1/8.0.2??? Apple has been having problems with cellular connectivity with the new OS and is currently working on the 3rd update to iOS 8 in less than a month. Hopefully this will be pushed out soon and will fix many of the problems people have been having.

Do you prefer to interact with Verizon through our Self Service tools or our centers?
