How do I get Customer Service from people who do not want to give it?

I recently went into a Verizon store to try to upgrade my phones. I am on a Family Plan. When I renewed my contract 2 years ago, one of the phones received was defective. After going back to the store several times, it still did not work properly. I asked for a replacement. I was sent a refurbished phone, which I did not want and complained. I sent it back and was finally sent a new phone. Now it's time to upgrade. The catch is that the date I can upgrade on 1 phone was set back 2 months-- the time it took to resolve the problem with the defective phone. In essence, I was being punished fo rreceiving a defective phone. The clerk in the store called customer service for me. I spoke to someone who had the authority to make

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I agree that when a new phone is purchased, the contract date is renewed as well. However, I had just purchased new phones and one was defective- not my fault. After their failed attempts to get this phone to work, I finally received a working phone, as described in my post. It seems unconscionabl;e to me that they would do something like this. So-I'm on a "Family Plan" with 2 different contract dates? Doesn't make sense. Also, how can they institute a new contract without my ok?
Appreciate the feedback.
1st of all, by activating the "new" phone, you are agreeing to the ToS and "giving your ok".
Next, when you renewed 2 yrs ago, you signed a contract in which you had 30 days to return the phone in exchange for a "new" one. After this 30 day period, you "agreed" to refurbished replacements by signing the original contract and activating your original phone, thus agreeing to the ToS. YOU were not willing to adhere to the contract and ToS which you had previously agreed to, but you now want Verizon to follow those terms that you have already backed out on?

    I had music on my i tunes that I deleted.  When I sync my iphone the music that was deleted shows up.  How do I get rid of the music I do not want on my iphone?

    Connect your I-phone to i-tunes , click on music . Not the one in the library but the music that opened up when you connected to i-tunes . Highlight the complete album or songs you want deleted, then right click and delete. Once you deleted the songs off you i-phone, then click the music from the library of your i-tunes. If that same music or album is also in there then repeat what you did in the i-phone to delete . This should take it all out.
    good luck

  • Inactive Gift Card - How do you get constructive service from Apple?

    I bought a Gift Card on 22 October from the local supermarket.  It apparently wasn't activated by them.  Somehow Apple have made that my problem.  My first request was answered by a computer.  I am now dealing with humans who do not seem to have any authority to resolve the issue.  This is a ridiculous waste of peoples time over something that is relatively simple. 
    How does anyone ever get Apple to resolve an issue?  Is anyone within Apple actually authorised to make a decision?  Honestly, I am exasperated.  How does anyone get Apple to resolve these issues?
    For the last 3 weeks I have been patient - a model citizen.  Here is my latest email.  Apple keep removing its content.  They have also removed previous threads.  I have edited it slighltly for privacy reasons if that is their problem:
    This verging on the ridiculous.  I was quite excited to get my first iPhone.  Now I am not.  This has taken weeks to resolve.  It has included my returning to the store to be told that they can not help me and to contact Apple.  I contacted Apple, number [########] and received nothing but an automated response that had absolutely nothing to do with the inactive card.  Apple did nothing else and then sent me a satisfaction survey.  I could not believe that.
    [#######]  is my second attempt.  I have now spent hours trying to get this resolved.  We are talking about NZ$30 here! It is not the crown jewels.  It is not the value of an iPod, iPhone, or iPad.
    I have proved that I purchased the card, again and again.  Obviously, for whatever reason, it was not activated at the store.
    We have consumer laws in New Zealand.  I know them well.  I should never have let the store send me back to Apple as under our consumer laws it is the stores problem to solve.  It should not have been my problem and I should not have been put to this trouble.  I am not a criminal.  I purchased an iTunes card that didn't work.  That should be Apple's problem and the Countdown Store's problem.
    So that this is in language that hopefully Apple can understand - iMad.  Yes, very angry.  Angrier than an 'Angry Bird'.
    What I will do is:
    Tell everyone I know not to buy an iTunes card.  There is no service associated with it.
    Tell everyone I know that Apple spends weeks messing you around and does not actually provide any service.
    Tell everyone I know that Apple has a great product let down by poor service processes.
    What I do want to make very clear is that I do not hold you or [name] responsible.  At least I am dealing with humans after the nonsense automated response I first received.  However, someone in Apple somewhere must be able to make a decision.  Whoever it is and wherever they are please pass on the following message - STOP MESSING ME AROUND!  I deserve an iPad2 for the time you have taken out of my life.  I can never get those hours back.

    We have consumer laws in New Zealand.  I know them well.  I should never have let the store send me back to Apple as under our consumer laws it is the stores problem to solve.
    You have let the original store off the hook? I think this is where I would spend all my focus. They need to activate it, not Apple.

  • Ok so i broke my old computer and my iphone has some of my library on it so now how do i get my stuff from my library thata not on my iphone to my new computer?PLeas help!!!!

    i broke my old computer and it had my music library and stuff on it and my iphone has some of the music on it but not all of it and i know how to transfer my purchasses from my phone but how do i get all the old stuff from my computer onto my new itunes library????

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here;
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - After you get everything on the computer, make a backup of he iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    If in the USA and other places where iCloud is released, you can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Is there a way to change the settings on my iPhone so I cannot receive calls from people who are not in my contacts?

    Okay so I barely use the calling/phone app (the one that comes on it) on my iPhone but most of the calls I get are from random people who I do not know who have the wrong number asking for the same people! I block them all I can but they're not always the same number there's different numbers all the time it's extremely annoying and driving me crazy, the one person left a voice mail again asking for the same person so I called them back and they denied they ever called I kept telling them I got a voicemail from that number and they kept saying no one called from that number. I literally cannot take this anymore. I remember seeing somewhere when I was setting up my phone where I can set it so people cannot call you if they're not in your contacts list. Is there a way to do that? If there is could you please let me know and how to do so? I seriously really need this please. I have an iPhone 4s that's on ios 7.1.2 if that helps any. Thanks so much.

    hi, this thread already deals with the issue:

  • I am getting undeliverable mail from people I did not send mail to.  How can I get this to stop?

    I recently received rejected mail notices from Postmaster that I did not send and are encrytped.  My address is being used, and I do not know these web addresses these emails were being sent to.  How can I resolve this issue? 

    We will need more information to be able to assist you.
    These message yoy are receiving are probably just a particular type of spam.  However it is also possible (unlikely) that your email account is being used to send spam, and that these are the bounce messages.

  • Contract mis-sold. Terrible customer service from a supervisor-no clear way to make a complaint

    After being a good customer for a year and a Verizon Wireless customer for 5 years, numerous issues with Verizon Fios have surfaced.
    1) Representative totally mis-informed about the contract
    When I took out a contract with Verizon FIos a year ago, I had not wanted to have a contract because they only option available was for 2 years and I knew that the lease for my apartment was only for 1 year and in all likliehood I would be moving. I was told by the representative that there would be no problem if I took out a 2 year contract because I could simply transfer the existing contract to wherever I moved with no issue.
    Fastforward a year and I'm moving, call Verizon to make the transfer and i"m told, that actually i'm effectively cancelling my existing contract and re-starting as a new customer. This means that my bundle has gone up $10 a month and I would have to start another 2 year contract.This completely contradicts what I was told a year ago. I would never have taken out the 2 year contract if I had known this.
    2) Terrible customer service from someone who is a supervisor
    This morning I spoke to a representative and after she said she couldnt address my concerns about being mis-sold the contract, I asked to speak with a supervisor. How he handled the call was incredibly unhelpful and rude - I dont understand how someone at a supervisor level can have that kind of attitude. First he tried to indicate that it was my fault for not being clear with the representative last year (before he knew the full facts), he did not take show any recognition that being mis-informed about a contract is a significant issue. When I asked him how to make a complaint he told me to go to verizon.com/contact. I did this while I was on the phone with him and told him that there was no clear way to make a complaint, I was told "I am a supervisor, I cant sit here on the phone with you and take you through it step by step" - I was not asking for step by step help, I assumed that as a supervisor he would know which wa the right section to click on. He then basically made it sound like I was an idiot and I was told that every other customer seems to find it intuitive (which judging by other comments on this forum about the contact piece of the site is not actually true).
    3) Impossible to file an official complaint through normal channels 
    There is no email address to which you can send a complaint (according to the team on the phone). On the verizon.com/contact page, there is no option for making a complaint. When you type in a question about making a complaint nothing comes up. This seems ridiculous and makes it seem like Verizon is not interested in hearing customers feedback.

  • How do you get deleted data from the app Tote M'Notes back on iPad ????

    How do I get deleted data from app Tote M'Notes back???...Not displaying in my notebook anymore...also how do i retrieve data from apps stored in Icloud?

    Why don't you use the fully-qualified-domain-name (FQDN) of your GW and perform a re-direct to this ?
    This should be known (and everytime the same), addtionally you won't have any problems if there's any load balancer in between or in fron of the GWs.
    Secondly you'll have problems to get the IP -address if there's any proxy server involved.
