How do I email Verizon Wirless customer service to get written record of conversations?

Hello,
I have spent multiple days, countless hours over the past several months on the phone with Customer Service to cancel Total Mobile Protection, and I am still getting charged. I have waited for an hour today in the middle of the day for a representative to arrive for the Live Chat feature. Is there any way to email customer service representatives? I need to comunicate with someone in WRITING about this because all the phone conversations I have had have not resulted in the Total Mobile Protection feature being cancelled, and I have no written proof because everything was over the phone. I feel very powerless and unheard, and I'm very disappointed to be treated this way after being such a loyal customer for all these years. Please - is there a way for me to communicate with customer service in writing and to stop the Mobile Protection charges once and for all, while being refunded for the past charges?
Please let me know. Thank you.

    CustomerYW,
I am so sorry to hear you are having this issue contacting us. I have sent you a PM requesting some information. Please reply to that message for further assistance.

  • How does Verizon resolve customer Service issues?

    I've spent the last 4 hours having no service. Talked to different representatives on the phone and made 2 trips to the store to figure out what was wrong with my device and I keep getting different answers, none of them the same. How do they respond to major customer service complaints?

  • Disappointed, can no longer trust Verizon for customer service

    Looks like I'm not the only one disappointed in Verizon's customer service, I've already seen a number of complaints on forums and this website itself.
    I'm writing this "discussion" in efforts to get something done about Verizon's customer service. Yes, I know there are good customer service representatives but also there are bad representatives that can definitely bring it down for customers like myself.
    I was charged $299.99 for returning a damaged device after getting a warranty exchange for a different model. I was on my third model of the pantech breakout and started seeing the same issues I had with previous phones on my current phone, I called customer service and was told by an extremely rude representative to "buy a lotto ticket, because the chances of multiple phones having the same issue is the same as you winning the lotto." Her tone was sarcastic and rude which offended me and closed any chance of me willing to work with technical support or other representatives to fix this issue. My previous pantech breakouts and the one I was using had issues of my SD formatting, SD ejecting without me doing anything, contacts disappearing, phone memory deleting to make room for updates that I had turned off, and basically I was losing data on my phone from pictures, contacts, to personal emails and content without me even doing anything. I went through 3 models and worked with technical support to change my phone, SD card and back memory up but still had a number of issues. This is when I called and was told to buy a lotto ticket. I was extremely upset with the representative and told them to not send a warranty exchange phone because of her rudeness and attitude. I visited a local verizon wireless store and told them my situation and was given a deal - buy the battery of a samsung s3 and get it for free - note that i did have a small crack on my screen which the sales representative saw and DID NOT mention anything about there being a damage fee. I understand that on the box you use to return the device it does say that there will be a fee for damaged devices, BUT my issue is - why did the sales representative not notify me? Verizon was expecting back a pantech, not the samsung they sent out ... either way I had to send back my pantech, why not reconfirm there will be a fee?
    I called verizon's customer service and told them my current situation, the lady told me to get in contact with my local store in which I did the exchange. Here are my call records:
    Friday - verizon wireless center --> local verizon store (was told they will call me back monday after figuring out the problem)
    Monday - NO call
    Tuesday - I call my local store, the manager was not working and they told me to call on Wednesday which was when the manager will be in
    Wednesday - NO manager, and the local store told me they will call me on Thursday
    Thursday - I waited till 4pm (California time) and did not receive a call so I called them, they tell me that the fee is valid because "none of their representatives will EVER sell a phone without notifying their customers of any damage fees"
    First of all, it took 5 days to even get a solid answer of my bill, and let alone ... the manager can't simply push the "verizon customer satisfaction guarantee, no one will sell a device without notifying customers of fees" slogan around and tell me I'm lying and that fees are valid. I turned to verizon's customer service for help and was told I can return my device and lose the fee, I asked if I would be given my old device back - NO I wont, so then what device do I use? NO device was to be given to me which sucks because I then would lose $150+ initial payment for getting a pantech breakout then the $40 for the samsung battery and was left with no phone.
    After talking with supervisiors and managers, I was given the last deal - 25% off the $299.99 fee
    My issue with verizon is that I do not understand WHY customers (myself) have to pay such fines when the issue lays within their customer service and sales representatives. I understand the issue with returning a damaged device BUT i do NOT understand why I am the only one having to pay consequences for this whole issue? Verizon is a big company, so are the under the impression losing one customer is nothing? I will now be returning my samsung s3 and doing an early termination because I am fed up with customer service, I believe it is wrong for anyone to be treated this way and then have to pay. I would rather pay the early termination, then be stuck with people telling me to buy lotto tickets and me to stop lying.
    Verizon needs to do a check up on their customer service representatives and work on getting the window of communication open and seriously attend to the needs of customers because they just lost one customer who has been with them since 2008

    Crack voided the warranty, hence the 299.99
    The rep made a mistake by judging this as a phone that could be exchanged by warranty, when it wasn't. Plus he / she should have informed you about the fees that do occur when / if the phone seems to be physically damaged.
    How did you know the phone had a crack?

    In this case you could return the phone and use the $300 or even less to purchase another phone of contract (third party sites).
    After talking with supervisiors and managers, I was given the last deal - 25% off the $299.99 fee
    This would be the best option in my opinion as you'll get a great phone for discounted price

    That problem is solely based on the store, and who manages it. Same goes for every other business out there.
    Same goes for the Customer Service line.

  • Tired of Verizon's customer service & lack of support,misled & being lied too!!!

    Due – April 28th 2012
    Issue:  Overage fees   –     5,310- used
                                                    2,000- allowed usage
                                                    3,310- overage
    I placed a call to Verizon on Monday, April 9th and spoke with a gentleman by the name of James (I think).  He issued the account to be investigated to find out if this was a billing error or a tech issue, ???.  He stated someone will call me back.
    Per the conversation my husband had with a customer service rep later that evening, they informed him that while he is & has been in Mexico, his calls outside of the US from Verizon to Verizon are not free!!!!!  WE WERE NEVER INFORMED OF THIS!!!   She told him that if we make calls to him that it would be free, but he said no it wouldn’t because you’re counting against their (my families) minutes because you show that “I went over” therefore causing my wife and daughter in all of these overage minutes.  We have been very used to free nights & weekends as well as the comfort of Verizon to Verizon calls with no fees and to just now find this out after having the plan changed to the Mexico international plan back in October 2011.  Besides, each and every month we have been told by different customer service reps a different thing each time.  1st I was told that by switching over, it would ONLY be an additional $25.00 a month added to our monthly bill and our coverage would be the same.  Then in December 2011 when we had additional fees, it was because apparently they changed the plan without informing us of the change that the plans unlimited texting did not apply to the Mexico plan????  They issued a credit.  Then in February when I called because of “data” charges (which we do not have a data plan on either of our phones & we have it blocked) they had to issue a credit and in order to avoid text fees was told to only contact each other via voice (calling).  This has been a problem because he drops calls constantly, sometimes it takes 3-4 times for the call to be dialed out before it will go thru to us (are we being charged for those calls (dials) made as minutes???) and the reception is horrible.  He has called the international customer service number for them to check the line or towers and it did help some.  Texting has made it easier for us to communicate with each other.  When I called on Monday, April 9th, I was informed that when he changed the plan for his line that it affected all of our lines (the entire plan).  I was NEVER TOLD THIS in fact I was told that it would apply only to his line!  We have been lied to, misled, misinformed and very unhappy with the service and support we are getting from Verizon.  We have been a very long time customer and in the entire history, we have NEVER experienced a bill this high or issue like this.  If you check the overall average of our monthly usage for each line you will see that this does not make sense and we always still within our monthly plan???  I will admit that in the entire history with Verizon sure we have gone over a few times and I have no problem paying for that difference by $100.00-$200.00 (but this has only happened only a couple times). There is seriously a problem with this bill.  Either the way the plan was set up for my husband’s line has affected the rest of our lines or it apparently has affected our entire plan of which again we were never informed of this.  I mean take a look at our overall monthly averages per line for usage on voice.  My husband’s line always does not have the majority of the minutes used due to his work and travel, however, for myself and my daughter’s line I have never, nor did my daughter use these many minutes.  We have unlimited texting on all of our phone lines and that is how we do the majority of our communication besides our family has Verizon service.  Shouldn’t this be free?!!!! This bill needs to be adjusted ASAP!!
    I called Wednesday, April 11, 2012 and spoke with Lisa to check the status of the investigation and she stated that she is showing no updates at this time.  She advised that if I don’t hear anything by next week to call back.
    Today is Monday, April 16, 2012 and I still have not had a call returned to us regarding this matter!  I am so sick of being lied to time and time again by different customer service reps or for that matter that has not been trained properly on Verizon’s company policy!!  Every single time I speak to someone, each rep tells me something totally different about our plan than the last rep we spoke to!!!  I am tired of not having my phone calls returned.  We have been absolute loyal customers to Verizon for 10 years plus and I am over this kind of unfair, unjust service from this company to the point that we want to switch and I am looking to report them as well as talk to an attorney!

    My experience with Verizon so far (it's been a month) has been awful...  If I can give any advice do not sign up for Verizon if you haven't already... I will be telling everyone I know.  Good LTE coverage does not excuse treating your customers like s***!
    The overall business practices of Verizon are shady and deceptive.  The poor customer service reps get caught in the middle (I'm not blaming them...)
    When I bought my phone, the sales person in the store added an extra $35 fee.  When I called back later to ask what extra fees they charge in the store they said none !?  Now they're looking into it...  Also we had our old phone numbers ported over, so they issued us temporary numbers... Which we ended up being charged for a full month of service on even though we had them for less than 24 hours!  In addition we were charged for a full month on our ported lines  (double charged)
    I think they do this sh** on purpose and hope you won't notice.  Shame on you Verizon.  I will leave as soon as my contract allows and never be your customer again for life!!!  I will also spread this far and wide.  May you fail miserably!

  • All I did was ask a question via email, and a customer service rep cancelled my entire pre-order

    So the other day I emailed bestbuy.ca customer service to ask them a question related to my E3 pre-order. Included in the order was a Ps4 Nyko Type Pad, and I asked if it is possible to cancel this single item in the order, and if it was, to do so. 
    Key to note that included among this E3 pre-order was a PS4 Fall-Out 4: Pip-boy edition, which is now sold out across North America. 
    The customer service rep took it upon himself to play trial and error with this order instead of actually knowing what he was doing and ended up cancelling the entire order and losing me my Pip-Boy Edition. 
    I have been emailing endlessly trying to explain how this is a bigger mistake than they are making it seem and have only gotten responses asking me to do something about it, not Bestbuy fix their mistake.. absolutely terrible customer service. 
    This was the question I asked (a), and the initial response I received (b).
    (a) my initial question
    Is it possible to cancel only one item of this pre-order? I would like to cancel the Nyko Type Pad if possible, but not any of the other items.
    (b) First bestbuy.ca response
    Dear ______,
    Thank you for contacting Best Buy Canada regarding Order # 
    We are sorry but when we tried to cancel the game in the order it doesn't work. When we tried to cancel it in second attempt it does, however your whole order got cancelled. We sincerely apologized for the inconvenience this has caused you.
    We kindly ask you to place another order online for all the games in the order and we will adjust the price if there are changes. You can also call 1-866-237-8289 options 1, 1, 3, and 2. One of our representatives will happy to place an order for you.
    Thank you for choosing Best Buy Canada. We look forward to serving you in the future.
    Sincerely,
    xx TA
    Best Buy Canada
    Further emails have only received predictable copy and paste responses, explaining that Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition is out of stock, and to check local stores. Completely ignoring the issue I was raising. 
    My second email
    This is absolutely in excusable and needs to be fixed on your end.
    One of the items in the pre-order that you cancelled has been sold out online almost since it was made available (Fall Out 4: Pip-Boy Edition, Playstation 4). Now that you have cancelled the order I have no way of receiving this item. It is sold out in every location. How is this going to be fixed?
    Second bestbuy.ca response
    Dear ____,
    We have received your email regarding the stock availability of Fall Out 4: Pip-Boy Edition, Playstation 4 on Bestbuy.ca.
    Our website does show this product as ‘Sold Out’.  It is possible that we will receive more stock of this item however we are not sure when as there are no pending purchase orders through the vendor.  As such, we are unable to provide any details as to when we may have stock available for online purchasing.
    Our online inventory is pulled from different inventory than your local store, so provided the item is not a web only item, they may have available stock.  Try using the store stock check (on the Product Detail Page) to view stock availability or contact your local store directly.
    Thank you for choosing Bestbuy.ca
    Sincerely,
    .TA
    Bestbuy.ca
    Great reading comprehension. The email wasnt about the availability of the game, the email was about the mistake made by a customer service rep. And no, no more stock is being made available, as Bethesda has said so. Just a terrible, terrible case of customer service.
    Consider me, a lost, long-time, customer. 

    Very sorry to hear about this ! 
    If you haven't had a resolution to this matter over the weekend, please send me a private message with your order number and contact details. I'd be happy to escalate to our Customer Experience team here. 
    Best,

  • I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using the "pass" yesterday and itunes is downloading24 episodes (a double order).  How do i stop it? How do you talk to a customer service person?

    I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using a "pass" yesterday and today Itunes is downloading 24 episodes (a double order).  How do I stop it?
    Did I order twice by mistake?  How do I contact an itunes customer service person?

    If you ordered it in HD, then you get the SD version as well ( for viewing on ipod/iphone).
    You cannot stop it.  There is no phone number to call.
    You can click "Support" at the top if this page and click the link under "Contact Us" to contact them.
    You can look at your purchase history to see what you were billed for, but I would guess that you are seeing the HD and SD version as you should.

  • Going back to Comcast--Verizon poor customer service

    Well, I'm going to have to terminate Verizon FIOS. I switched from Comcast, thinking the internet speed would be higher and overall service would be better, but so far my experience with Verizon has been terrible. Although (according to my contract) the fiber optic line would be run underground to my house prior to installation, it was not. In fact, on the day the service was installed, there was no cable so there was a delay of several hours waiting for a cable drop to the house so installation could proceed. A cable drop means the cable was run to the house above ground. Since the installation on April 1 (yeah, I know) Verizon has "promised" the cable would be buried on 5 different dates. Each day came and went, with no cable burial. Furthermore, there was no call from anyone to let me know the cable would not be buried on the day as promised. This has been a problem, because they require our dogs to be kept out of the back yard so they can do the cut over with the buried cable. This means we either had to stay home so we could confine the dogs when the installer showed up, or keep the dogs locked in the garage for several hours if we had to leave. Don't bother calling their tech support line to resolve the problem--their standard response is to say they will contact the department that schedules the in ground installation and I would get a call back withing 24 to 48 hours. I've been told this 3 times on 3 different occasions, and never had a call back. Yesterday I was told that the contractor would be out today to bury the cable, and they even had a work order number to confirm the appointment. Nobody showed up today, and no call back.
    Now, Comcast may not be superior to Verizon FIOS, but in the 2 years I was with them they never lied to me. Verizon has lied to me (unintentionally, perhaps) at least 5 times so far, and no one has ever had the courtesy to contact me when an appointment was broken to let me know it would not be kept.
    I plan on terminating the agreement with Verizon and going back to Comcast. According to my contract, Verizon was required to install the FIOS cable to my house--prior to installation--in the same manner as the copper wire; aerial or buried. Well, the copper phone line and Comcast cable are underground, but the FIOS cable is still lying on top of the ground. Breach of contract.
    PS--although the service I signed up for promises internet speed up to 10 Mbps, the fastest I've seen so far has been closer to 5. Comcast was faster.

    A poster wrote: "IMO all these Unions & Contractors should be gone. "
    The unions have nothing to do with this...let's keep the blame where it belongs. 1) unethical, unreliable, and unresponsive contractors, 2) lack of oversight from Verizon, and 3) unresponsive, no follow up/less than stellar Verizon customer service.
    Verizon...or better...Ma Bell....was at one time THE BEST SERVICE PROVIDER BAR NONE. That sadly has gone the way of the do do bird...They've dumbed down their techs, compartmentalized their "mindbank". There are very few techs who know more than "one thing" anymore. When companies slash budgets to remain competitive...invariably customer service and repair suffer...
    I too have some issues with Verizon's customer service. I was a land line customer for well over 20 yrs until I had a repair issue and was told on 5 different occasions that a repair tech would be out to do the repair...they never came...they never called. My screen name is dtmfman...for anyone who doesn't know it means dual tone multi frequency...in lay terms...dial tone....Yes I've been a voice person for well over 30 years....so after 5 missed repair visits and no calls....I disco'd my land line service and now use only my cell. I'm sure at the time they (Verizon) probably thought they wouldn't miss my $40+/month income....but more and more people are fed up with poor customer service and have followed my exodus.
    Back on topic...Yes sadly the buried cable issue seems to remain a big problem for Verizon. It happened to me. But..I have to say...once it did get resolved....I haven't had many problems...I too was a comcast customer...but I would NEVER go back unless Fios was discontinued...or they finally have competition in the "fiber to the house" arena.
    Right now...my issues are questionable data transfer speed....and of course less than stellar customer service...
    Good luck....

  • Verizon wireless customer service and the iphone 6

    I just upgraded to the iphone 6. It is a nice phone. Fast, sleek, seems more durable than the reports of it bending etc.
    (Knock on wood).
      The biggest problem I have is VERIZON. Having been a customer for well over a decade, I was annoyed that I had to pay them $30 to sign a two year contract to give them money in exchange for service. Why the fee, I ask?
    "Because everyone charges a fee". Cool. There is also a cliff right over there.
      The customer service agent was polite and offered to offset this charge on my next bill, and to go ahead and pay this fee on top of the $300 for the phone. I did. And signed the next two year contract. Did he give me said credit? Nope. When I asked the next customer service agent of this, she said "we don't do that". When I asked Brandy, a supervisor, she also stated that this cannot be credited. Convenient timing as I had already signed the contract. I don't like giving money to companies that trick people out of money. I think I have out grown Verizon. Or Verizon's customer service has outgrown itself.
    Regardless, it's the principle. Getting lied to and treated like a sucker doesn't feel good. And I paid money to have it done to me.
    Thanks Verizon!

        Bluevelvet, I'm sorry you feel this way. Although it was a difficult decision to implement the upgrade fee, we did decide that doing so would allow us to continue to provide savings to our customers. While a $30.00 upgrade fee may not sound like savings, the savings comes in the form of being able to subsidize our devices with contracts. Additionally, the upgrade fee can be avoided with Edge since the device is not subsidized.
    You mentioned purchasing an iPhone 6. I'm glad to see that you are happy with the design and performance of it. Normally, the iPhone 6 16GB (I'll use this for an example) is $649.99 for full retail. With the larger memory and different model, it's even pricier. By charging a $30.00 upgrade fee, we can subsidize this cost for you in exchange for a two year contract, so intead of paying $649.99 out of pocket, you only have to pay $199.99.
    I do want to review the offer that was presented to you. I have sent you a direct message here. Please reply to the direct message.

  • Verizon email support and customer service - simply horrible

    After spending a frustrating and annoying morning trying to get Verizon Technical Support to help fix a problem with blocked access to Webmail, I notice on this forum that mine is not the only problem,.....except I have not seen the same issue denoted. I was attempting to get help to resolve an issue accessing WebMail where i get a screen that says:
    "Sorry, You cannot access WebMail from [ip address] to due spam activity.  Please contact [email protected] for assistance."  yes, that is the actual message.  First....How the FREAK (polite word entered here) do you contact an EMAIL ADDRESS when you can't get to email?.  That's like hearing 'You have a problem with your telephone?...well just call me and we can fix the problem".  Second, after dialing support numbers twice (first time afer spending 35 minutes on hold, the person answering the phone hung up on me) the person that finally picked up after another 20 minutes on hold could not offer any help.  They had to enter a trouble ticket for IT to look into the problem.  When I requested a ticket number for reference, I was told they can't give me that because they really had no way to immediately enter a trouble report.  HELLO!?!  What good is support if you don't give the persons answering the phone access or authority to put in tickets? When queried about an estimated resolution time, I was told up to two billing cycles.  HELLO AGAIN?!?  My Verizon email is with the KEEPMYEMAIL plan....one year paid up front.  So this explanation, by itself, indicates up to two years to resolve an issue. I've been around for a few years and this is the worst I have experienced with Verizon...and I know that the company has very sophisticated trouble ticketing system....I was part of the team that built them and can assure anyone reading this message it was not designed to be difficult or inaccessible.  Verizon has changed and not for the better.  When a company hides behind email and circular voice response systems it's an indication that customer service is NOT their priority.  Think I joking?  Just look at the webpages and see if you can find a single customer relationship management contact that you can call or send a message or mail to.  All you find is a general correspondence address in St. Petersburg Florida.  If, by some miracle, this moves up the chain or authority, here's a thought.  Does this remind anyone of the MA BELL comedy sketch by Lilly Thomlin?  Isn't this attitude the same reason that Verzon was born out of the breakup of AT&T in the first place? Just sign me - Aisforannoyed

  • 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.
