How and where to file complaint against Verizon's customer service?

I hate it that I had no one to give my business to other than Verizon in my area. 
I've had Verizon in early 2000s when FiOS was first available in my area, but the speed sucks so I was better off switching back to dial-up. 
Many years have passed so I thought I would try Verizon again as I've heard good things about them. I signed up for the bundle service in 2012, and it's been an internet living hell when you're paying $140 every month and had to struggle daily to get connected onto the slow internet that takes 3minutes to load Google search page if you're lucky (my plan is 50/25). 
I've had no internet connectivity on the 2nd floor of my house and I've contacted Verizon many times about it. 
First time I'm told the router they provided could cover 100K range, so the problem might be the internet speed. I naively believed them and upgraded my service and got myself locked for another 2year nightmare. 
Second time I contacted them I'm told their router could only provide good connectivity if you're within 20ft range. Intersting enough the tech who first installed the modem placed it at the farthest corner of the home that's tucked away from the rest of the house. I already told him that the internet sucked when I had Verizon FiOS when it first came out, but he said let's try place it there. So I think it's only reasonable to have Verizon to send someone to check and see if relocating the modem would solve my problem. The rep told me that can be done at a $154.98 service fees, all the same time does not guarantee that the internet issue will be fixed. 
The online customer service person I spoke to has shown no regards on HELPING me to SOLVE the problem; she sounded like she just wants to set up an appointment, collect the service fees, and be done with me. This is not the kind of customer service I expect from a respected carrier. I'm just a frustrated user who wishes the service provider could provide some kind of assistant on helping me utilizing their product. The customer service reps I spoke to has reflected poorly on Verizon, and it certainly tells me you guys don't care about your customers since I'm already trapped in a crappy contract, which you'll get the monthly fee or the termination fees, one way or another. Also, your reps are giving out conflicting and false information. And I'm left on my own to figure out a way to deal with this internet mess. I will be an advocate on the bad experience I've had with Verizon, and as soon as other companies start offering high speed internet in my area, I'll switch in a heartbeat and encourage all my neighbors and friends to give their business to someone who might care a little bit more about their customers. 

I feel your pain. That is why we left them ............could not stand the poor customer service either. By the way, we have netflix. Although we had the step up internet connection, netflix was frequently buffering, ot the point that it was not watchable. When we switched over to a known long island competitor, netflix operated like a rocket. So that means I was paying for faster internet connection and getting much less than  I paid for.
Good luck.

  • How can I get some help with Verizon's customer service?

    I want to preface this by stating that this is the first time in the 10 years in which I've been a Verizon wireless customer, that I've had a problem that cannot be resolved to my satisfaction.  My issue started with a Verizon Wireless Stores in Bethlehem, PA.  I asked one of the sales clerks for some assistance (which I now regret).  My question to her was that I simply wanted to be able to connect my home laptop computer to the internet data on my mobile plan. Without even discussing the different options, I was "told" I needed to purchase a Mobile Hotspot Device (for $69.99, but just $20 after rebate!).  I told the clerk I didn't want to have to pay an additional bill every month and didn't want something that wasn't absolutely necessary.  She neglected to give me the more costly details, like the fact that it would require a 2 year contract on the device, and it would also cost me an additional $20 per month.  She knew I wasn't really sure what the most cost-effective option was, so I trusted her knowledge.  I even had my husband speak to her over the phone about the device, since he's more savvy about technology than I am.  The clerk spoke with him the entire time she completed my transaction, and when she rang the sale up, she did not have me sign anything.  She handed me the receipts, and told me I had 14 days to decide If I wanted to keep the device.  When I got home and tried to use it, it would not connect to my computer.  I took it to a local Verizon store on my lunch break one day and they looked into the transaction.  They told me it was never put on my account; it was charged to someone else's account in error.  I had to go back to the store where I originally purchased it.  I wasn't able to get back to the original store right away, but I made sure to get there by the 14th day.  It took two store managers to look at my account and figure out the error.  They fixed it, but no one apologized to me for the inconvenience; they simply told me they could activate the device for me, or if I didn't want it any more, they would take it back (minus the $35 restocking fee). I took issue with the restock fee, because the store made the error by not giving me the full information at time of purchase, and then not charging it to my account so that I could try it out for 14 days.  I was very upset that the manager refused to remove the restocking fee due to "policy" and that I "signed a contract" and I had to pay it.  I argued that she should make an exception in this case, because I was inconvenienced.  I told her if she valued my future business at her store, she would reconsider.  She refused to budge and told me that I didn't need to shop in her store any more.  I thought that was quite rude and insulting. So, I took all of my original receipts, along with the receipt that indicated that she refunded the $69.99 plus tax (minus the $35 restock fee).  I left the store quite upset, but figured there wasn't much else I could say to her. Meanwhile, it's days later and my bill still shows the entire amount of $74 for the mobile hot spot device still on there.  There is no credit for the return at all.  I called customer service on my lunch break yesterday, and was on the phone for 45 min with a "Kendra R" to no avail.  The entire call, she kept putting me on hold, and my bill was still not straightened out. When I asked to speak with a supervisor or manager, she said there was no one else available.  Later that afternoon, I got an automated call (that left a voice message) from Verizon Customer Service to do a survey on my customer service experience.  I did the survey and explained that my problem was not resolved and I would like a call back.  No one has called me back yet, and I am stuck with no resolution to my problem.  Now the Verizon store has the device back, and I still have the entire amount for it on my bill.  Can you help me please?

    Nope, it was a Verizon Wireless Store.  I went in there in the first place because I trusted the Company for their professionalism, but I've been let down badly.  I posted my story on here because I'm hoping to be able to get the attention of someone from Customer Service.  It seems like the only way you can actually speak with a live person who knows what they are doing, is when you stop paying your bill on time.  After you pay your bill, they transfer you to a poorly trained "rep" that has no authority to handle anything important. I'm actually a pretty patient person, but when it takes someone over 45 min mostly just to keep me on hold, and then tell me they can't help me, I'm not really impressed with their idea of customer service.

  • How and where can I combine several pdf files?

    I have written a Guide Book for Music Teachers in Word, converted it into a pdf file and would now like to insert sheet music files written with Sibelius Notation Program which have also been converted into pdf files, since they are otherwise not compatible with Word. How and where can these diverse pdf files be combined?

    First, make sure you open Acrobat, and not Adobe Reader.  It's a common mistake.
    From Acrobat, use File | Create | Combine Files into a Single PDF:
    On the next panel you can select the files you want to combine, rearrange them, etc., and finally click Combine.
    P.S. your menu may look slightly different, as we may not be using the same Acrobat version.

    Can you useEasynews to download movies etc to IMac and how and where do you save the files?

    From your Apple menu at the left end of the menubar, select "About this Mac." You get a window similar to this:
    1) The Mac OS version is just under the big "MAC OS X" line. Post what that says.
    2) We can start to figure out what iMac you have if you post what that the "Processor" line says.
    We need to find out because Apple's poor labling choices for this forum, intended for iMacs made before 2006, causes people with newer and much more capable Macs to post here by mistake.
    Without some info from you, it's much like your calling an auto mechanic and asking if you can use a certain part without telling him the make, model, or year of your car. Quess what his first question will be? Works the same here.

    I'm trying to move a video file on to my airport time capsule but it keeps asking me to click Authenticate - how and where do I do this?

    Unmount the TC disk and manually mount it in Finder..
    Use Go, Connect to Server.
    Type in the network name or IP address thusly.
    AFP://TCname.local (TCname is the actual network name of the TC.. this is not the same as its name unless you use correct SMB naming.. so simply fix the name or find its network name. local is domain). 
    or
    AFP://10.0.1.1 (That is default IP, type in your TC ip which should only be used if static)
    When you do the above it will request a password, type in your TC disk access password.
    You should be able to copy files to the TC now.. but please remember the TC is not a great place to store files and Time Machine cannot back it up.

  • How and where improve my photoshop skill shortly? be more professional !

    One of my job duty is web graphic
    i use photoshop mainly during my working time
    but my skill was not upgraded for 1-2 years , just repeat daily work only
    how and where improve my photoshop skill within 1-2 week?  And be more professional !
    for example , i respond for a fashion jewelry shop :  www.gemztone.com
    the boss request me to do more improvment but i have no good idea,
    Thank you any suggestion!

    I see that Lynda.com has gotten a lot of recs, so will not mention that one (good though).
    I also like the Adobe Classroom in a Book [fill in your version of PS here], Adobe Press. They will step you through several interesting projects, and expose you to much that is contained in the program. Most will also provide you with sample images to work with. To date, only CiaB Encore, was without sample files.
    Early editions did concentrate heavily on the "how," but were lacking the "why." Most of the versions that I have seen lately, have added a lot more of the "why," and that can be so very important, when one translates their lessons to real-world work.
    After that, there are many fairly specialized books for PS. Ones for a Camera RAW flow, retouching, 3D, motion in PS-Extended, and on, and on. Once you are comfortable with the program, define what you want to do with it. There will likely be a book for that.
    Good luck and enjoy,

  • How and where the URL is mapped to welcome or Home template?

    Hi,
    Could any body tell me how the URL (say www.abc.com) is mapped to our home template(/home.tcl).
    we use the URL www.abc.com, when we access it display the home page. This home page is generated by a TCL template- "/home". I wanted to know where this template path is mapped to www.abc.com,
    Is it done at web-server level or Appserver lavel or VCMS lavel ? What configuration file I have to look into?
    Also we have one more registered URL "www.abc.fr".. accessing this URL should redirect to "www.abc.com/home_french?locSet=FR". How and where could I do this ?
    We use :Webserver -- iPlanet ,
    Appserver -- Websphere
    Content management server -- Vignette-6

    can you give me example of it
    i am trying with

  • How do I make a complaint with Verizon?

    On January 23, 2014, I contacted Verizon Wireless Customer Service because I was experiencing less than satisfactory performance with my HTC One. I purchased the device in September of 2013. Through the first few months I experienced no issues with the device. It was around mid December that the battery performance began to significantly decrease to the point in which I had to charge it multiple times a day to get through the day with it.
                When I contacted customer service I was transferred to a conference call with HTC in which we performed trouble-shooting tasks for the battery. These trouble-shooting tasks did not improve any performance and as a result Verizon sent me a replacement phone.
                The replacement phone I received had more issues with it than the one I returned. On February 1, 2014 I attempted to unlock the phone to answer a message and at this point the phone shut off completely and I was unable to turn it back on or charge for over an hour. I then took it to my local Verizon store in which they were no help to me at all. All the associate did was give me the number to customer service. I went to the store because I wanted personal customer service, I could have easily attained the number from the website. I found this to be extremely unhelpful.
                I then proceeded to call customer service again in which they again transferred me to HTC, I did not know that protocol for customer service at Verizon was to dump their customers onto phone manufacturers. After going through the same trouble-shooting advice with HTC for a second time I was hung up on by both HTC and the Verizon customer service although I was not done voicing my concerns.
                I decided to participate in the customer service survey in which I gave a very poor rating and was informed that I would be hearing from a Verizon Wireless manager, in which I did not, no surprise there.
                With the terrible customer service experience I have dealt with this week I will be looking to take my business elsewhere in the near future as I way out my options between AT&T and Sprint.

    I have problems in the charging port, took the phone in and they said it was burnt, from their charger. Told me it was covered but would not replace it. Told me how to do a hard reset which I do 3 times a week minimum. The HTC one is the worst phone I've ever had and was told pretty much to suck it up or upgrade after I just spent several hundred upgrading to this junk. Now I'm worried about submitting a claim and just get the same crap phone.Verizon at one time was great service but now it seems like they don't care about anything but how much money they can scam.

  • How and where can i do a "User GRANT to SYSADM,SYSCTRL,.." ?

    Hello all,
    the first time we installed a new SAP-System with sapinst on DB2/LUW V9.
    SAP works. (As yet we "drove" DB2 only on z/os)
    SAP Created four db2 User : DB2<SID>, <SID>ADM, SAP<SID> and SAP<SID>DB!
    They all have no "Grant" privilege?
    How and where can i do a User grant to SYSADM,SYSCTRL,.. ,
    there's no admin?
    Thanks a lot!
    Markus

    Hi Markus,
    in addition to explicit GRANTs DB2 LUW has the concept of privileges.
    db2<dbsid> is instance owner and part of the SYSADM group db<dbsid>adm.
    <sapsid>adm is part of the SYSCTRL group db<dbsid>ctl.
    sap<sapsid> is part of the SYSMAINT group db<dbsid>mnt.
    In addtion to that <sapsid>adm is DBADM. This right is explicitly granted during the installation with SAPInst.
    The relationship between OS group and privilege is controlled by the database manager configuration parameters SYSADM, SYSCTRL and SYSMAINT.
    The rights of these privileges are described in the DB2 documentation.
    Regards, Jens
