How can I escalate terrible FIOS service problems above FIOS field service management?

This is a long story, but I will try to keep it short and on point.  We use Verizon FIOS for land line telephone, Internet access and TV cable.  For the past four and a half months, we have suffered serveral outages a week and sometimes several outages in a single day on all three services.  Sometimes we lose our Internet connection for a few moments.  Sometimes telephone calls get dropped or there is no dial tone.  Sometimes we see pixelation or interference in the cable TV signal.
Often two services are affected at the same time.  We've recorded events where all three services were affected at one time.
In the Gateway router logs, we see errors messages that "opaque does not match!" and "rebinding lease."  These messages in the router logs occur at the same time stamps when we suffer dropped calls or cable TV interference.  It seem obvious, at least to me, that the problem is external to anything that is inside of our house.
We have opened a dozen or more support tickets.  We've had four Verizon field technicians come to our house.  We've gone through three Verizon Gateway routers.. We've accessed the Internet using only wireless connections of a week to try and rule out internal wiring problems with computer access to the Internet.
Verizon has replaced the ONT (optical network terminal) on the side of our house.  They changed the fibre channel cable that goes from the ONT to a vault out by the curb of the street.
We have opened a formal complaint with the FCC and with the PA Public Utility Commission.  But the problem has not been resolved.  We think that we're just getting the run around now from Verizon field service.  Yesterday, a service manager left me a voicemail where he suggested that our Internet problem was caused by a second router that we had hooked up to the Verizon router.  We DO NOT have a second router.  He said that there was a problem with cable TV interference in my area and 2nd level support was working on it.  He did not address the dropped landline calls.  He did not address why outages on more than one service would occur at the same time.
Does anyone have any advice on how I get our problem escalated?  We are at the end of our rope here and are considering canceling our service with Verizon and going with a competitor.  But even after all of this, we are hesitant to switch providers because we will lose our email accounts that we've used for well over a decade.

  • ESW: How can I use an enterprise service from ES Workplace?

    Hi All,
    i would have to use the enterprise service "SupplierERPCreateRequest_In" I found in the SAP ES Workplace. But how can I now use the service? I don´t find the Service in SOAMANAGER.
    The corresponding package is installed and in SE80 in Enterprise Service Browser I see the "Service" or Proxy. But in the Enterprise Service Browser appears "Local Objects only (No Connection to ESR)"! Must be activated here anything?
    Has anyone any idea what the problem might be or how should I proceed?
    Regards,
    Bastian

    Hi Gourav,
    thanks for your answer.
    I have looked at the blog, but it´s about XI. From step 2 in the blog, the description is no longer true in my system. The system that I use and where I need the service is SAP ERP ECC 6.0 EHP4, so the latest release.
    Do you have another idea?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Bastian

  • ICloud ruined my life- how can I escalate this case further!!!

    The unthinkable has been hande to me by Apple.
    iCloud corrupted 40% of my documents. Then 'reset' the remaining 60%
    100% of my documents erased by Apple. This has taken 8 months of my life away, the apple care process has been woeful. So many Senior Advisors said they would 'take ownership of the case' and 'call me back'. Nothing, no call back- I am forced to call up again- explain the case again- be promised again by another Senior Advisor that they would 'take ownership of the case' and 'call me back'...
    I am left shattered.
    This was a few months ago- i have lost huge amounts of irreplaceable research generated from over 2000 hours of my own personal work.
    It was not backed up to my mac book as it was rendered inoperable when i 'upgraded' to OSX Lion.
    I did all my work for 8 months on my ipad. All documents were created and stored locally on my ipad. I had no access to my LaCie external because my macbook was inoperable.
    It was recommended by Apple Genius that I turn on icloud for Documents. iCloud then corrupted the documents and synced that corruption back to my documents locally stored on my ipad.
    I could then see all the images in pages documents view. But could not open them- that was for about 40%of my documents. I could still access the other 60%
    My account was then referred to the iCloud engineers. After a few weeks with no contact from apple I called up to chase up this loss of my documents- it had been going on for 7 weeks at this point.
    The senior advisor told me that my account had been 'reset' and should be working fine now..
    WHAT!!!! Reset!!!?????? so what about the 60% of docs that i had access to?
    Gone. Deleted from the icloud account, synced back to my ipad.
    All Gone.\
    If i had been contacted by the engineers. 'We cannot fix your corrupted documents. We propose to reset your account. That will erase all data and documents in your account. Is this ok? Please backup any documents you have on your ipad.'
    This would have saved 60% of my 8 months research- which is a lot.
    but no- no contact, just reset my account and erased my documents.
    its unbelieveable and unthinkable.
    I am a MASSIVE apple fan- i have 22 Apple devices and tell everyone in my network that all my dreams have come true with Apple- ridiculing them for using other devices. It has now turned into a nightmare.
    I WENT TO THE APPLE STORE IN SYDNEY IN DESPARATION- TO FIND OUT IF THERE WAS AN IMAGE OF THE DOCUMENTS SOMEWHERE/ANYWHERE!!! I KNOW THEY CAN ONLY CONTACT ICLOUD IN THE SAME WAY AS ME- BUT WHAT OPTIONS DID I HAVE- I COULDN'T ESCALATE THROUGH APPLE ANY HIGHER- THEY TOLD ME THAT THE SENIOR ADVISORS AND ENGINEERS WERE AS HIGH AS I COULD ESCALATE. SO I WENT TO THE APPLE STORE AND TOLD THEM THAT I WOULD NOT LEAVE THE STORE UNTIL IT WAS RESOLVED- THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T HELP ME- I STAYED FOR 8 HOURS- AFTER 1.5 HOURS WE FOUDN OUT THAT THE ENGINEERS LIKENED TRYING TO RESTORE MY DOCUMENTS TO TRYING TO REBUILD A BURNT DOWN HOUSE.
    We were about to release our energy saving App globally. I had a meltdown and just went away on holiday to New Zealand and Thailand with my kids- I couldn't face the reality of what i had to do to recover.
    I came back to try and get back on track recently. My only way forward was to forget about it and start again.
    AND THEN!!!
    I stupidly used pages on my ipad to edit a document from our development partner the other day. I opened my pages today, the document was there- then in front of my eyes all the documents shuffled around. Guess what- the doc I had edited disappeared.. In shock i called Apple Support. He asked me to check on icloud. com. 15 documents, not the one i want, advisor can see my doc- i cannot. I feel naseous.
    THIS CASE HAD ALREADY GONE TOO FAR. BUT NOW I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!!
    How can i escalate further? There must be a way. This is not acceptable! Apple are messing with my life!!!!! I'm losing too much time and money- it's just not fair at all. Something MUST be done by way of compensatiing for this series of errors!!!!

    There's nothing anyone here can do for you, and I'm afraid I have little sympathy.
    2000 hours of "irreplaceable work" and at no point during those 8 months did you think "Gee, I really should back up all these hugely important files just in case my iPad gets stolen, lost, breaks or some other disaster occurs"?
    As soon as you noticed something was amiss, or even at the point when you still had access to 60% of your documents, why did you not take the opportunity to download a copy of them via iCloud.com (on any computer) and save them safely on a memory stick or other backup device?
    Having just one copy of any file is asking for trouble. Backing up regularly is the No.1 rule of computing. Apple is not responsible for your lack of any backup routine. Apple advise you to backup regularly. Being able to backup your iPad should've been your motivation for spending an hour or two of those 2000 getting the MacBook up and running.

  • How can I invoke the web service manually in websphere?

    Hi
    I've developed a webservice application using Rational Application Developer (RAD). I deployed it in a websphere 6.1 application server, using the administration console to import the war file that I had previously exported with RAD.
    My webservice application is listed in the "Enterprise Applications" section of websphere's administration console as started.
    My question is: how can I invoke the web service manually? Is there some kind of websphere generated webpage that I can use to call it manually?
    I tried http://<server:port>/<contextroot> and http://<server:port>/<contextroot>/<servicename> in a webbrowser, but it doesn't work. Is it possible to invoke the web service manually, or do I need to develop a client?
    Thanks in advance

  • How can I stop a report service manually ?

    How can I stop a report service manually in DOS command?
    I only know start a report service manually in DOS command.For example:rwserver service=repljbass

    My start/stop scripts for Solaris looks like this.
    Start:
    rwserver.sh server=reportserver batch=yes
    Note: batch=yes means that the extra control window doesn't start (at least on Unix)
    Stop:
    rwserver.sh server=reportserver shutdown=immediate authid=repadmin/reports
    Just remove the .sh and it'll work on your PC.
    PS. The complete Solaris start command I use is:

    If you mean an Apple Retail Store, speak to the store manager of that location.
    If you mean an Apple Authorized Service provider, speak to the store manager of that location.
    If you mean your wireless carrier/cellular provider, go to a store and speak to the store manager of that location, or call the carrier and ask for Customer Relations.
    If you mean Apple Support, call Apple and speak to Customer Relations.

  • How can I remove dropdown calendar menu from date/time field.

    I set up a javascript calculation based on the input of a date field. As long as the user enters the date manually the script works fine. If user attempts to select date by drop down menu then script will not work. How can I remove the calendar feature from the Date field?

    You may have to wire custom script to get you what you need. That would probably work on 'exit' event.
    Just you give you better Idea here is some thing I have on a date field. If user types his own date instead of picking from calendar this code checks whether it is valid date or not and returns to the same field either they enter valid date or clear the field.
    This is FormCalc script. You may get the idea how this works and make it work for you using the same logic either in FormCalc or JavaScript.
