New customer - Difficulty Getting Support

Prior to becoming a customer today, I had no problems with getting in contact with Verizon via chat. Now that I am a customer, I'm having a difficult time getting support. EVERY avenue of Verizon support is busy -- long hold times on the phone, no chat representatives available (all assisting others), long wait times in the store.
I had to provide additional documentation to get my account setup, and I was not informed that I would need additional documentation when I first came to the Verizon store on Feb. 21. I am porting over from another carrier, and got the go ahead from the other carrier on Feb. 28 to be able to switch. I came in to a Verizon store on Feb. 28 to setup service, but the computer system automatically placed a hold on the account and I had to provide additional documentation.
I could not get that documentation and come back before the store closed for the night. I came back March 1, and had to end up paying a higher price for the phone. I am fairly certain that in the month of February, the Droid MAXX was $99.99 and I can at least confirm that by using web.archive.org and looking back to Feb. 25 where it does show that price with a 2-year contract. Going to verizonwireless.com today now shows the phone for $149.99.
The difficulty in getting support lies with not being able to get the price adjusted in the store. I went to another store, and after being there for at least 20 minutes, I hadn't moved up in the queue. I tried online chat, but all agents were busy. I called phone support, but encountered a wait for assistance on the phone. I lastly tried Twitter support, but it seems the VZWSupport account was last active on Feb. 26.

I managed to get in contact with customer service by phone. I've had good experience using social media to get assistance from my previous carrier. Verizon seems to have two support accounts on Twitter - VerizonSupport and VZWSupport; which one is the correct one?
VerizonSupport = Verizon Landline services (phone, Fios, DSL, etc.)
VZWSupport = Verizon Wireless (cellular phone)

  • New customer, cant get any channels

    Hi,
    So i've set up my new vision+ box today and followed the instructions to the letter. Used all the cables provided and checked all the right lights and flashes are doing their thing. But...i can't get any channels at all! Nothing. I've unplugged everything and started again to no avail, i've rebooted my home hub and i've checked my tv works ok without vision.
    Does anybody have any ideas? I have a freeview enabled tv in another room and it works fine.
    If this doesn't get resolved soon then i think i may just have to go back to Sky.
    Thanks in advanc for any advice

    Hi AnnaP and welcome
    Is the other TV supplied from the same aerial?
    If it is, unplug it and then try this...
    (The same goes for any other TV's, should they also be running off the same aerial)
    Remove the main aerial lead from the rear of the vbox and scan for channels (it will never find any)
    When it's finished scanning, leave the Vbox switched on and switch off the mains plug for the Vbox.
    Insert the main aerial lead back into the Vbox, but remove the aerial lead that goes from the Vbox to the TV (if fitted).
    Plug the box back in and repeat the scan for channels.
    Does it find any channels?
    (Don't forget to plug the other aerial lead into the other TV)
    edit. If you're using a HDMI connection, unplug this and use a scart lead

  • I cannot believe how hard it is to get support for issues with EE

    How can it be so hard to contact customer support?  I can't make or receive calls while at work but checking/sending the odd email or IM is OK.  However there appears to be no way to contact customer support other than to phone them!  I've seen other posts regarding contacting them by Twitter or Facebook.  How long is it going to take for businesses to realise that those are not appropriate media for support calls (just my opinion obviously).  I already get spammed with tens of text messages a month so don't want to solicit addional spam by connecting to them on social media (oh yea the word social, they are my service provider, not my friend!). I have relented and tweeted them but had no response yet.  It's so hard to contact support, they are a communications company! I appologise that there isn't realy a question in my post, I'm just bewildered/dismayed/staggered by the unreliable service 3 or 4 issues in 6 months using the service) and subsequent difficulty getting support that I just wondered if anyone could offer some insight? The coverage is better than my previous provider but i am seriously regretting joining EE. Alan.

    Hey , Sorry to hear about this. Have you tried contacting them from a landline, or a different phone? If you're ringing from another phone, it's 01707 315000 I can see you said you've tweetd them, so hopefully they'll help you out, or refer you to the Live Chat team.

    31 july 2012 i have purchase Mountion Lion , only last week i had the time to install it on my IMac 27"
    Since then i have problems with it.
    Apple touchpad moving = ok but click on any place = NOK
    keybord forced quit don't respond
    only solution was to powercyble the IMac
    2 weeks ago i have buy also a MacBook Air with Lion
    Yesterday i had a support engineer that told me to reset the IMac true cmd alt R and P keys
    and to call back when it hapend again.
    Yesterday night i had a "escalation" of the issue, on the top right corner i lost most of the icons , like wireless network date and time name etc....
    If i go to system prefferences and open networks it hangs
    tested with another admin user account same issue
    Today a apple enigeneer called and the first wat he asked is when i have buy the mountion Lion software , i told it was 31 July but due workload only last week installed.
    It is today 3 days over time and he will not give me support ! That when i have a 2 weeks old MacBook Air intront of me.
    Do i need to go to Microsoft to get support ?
    I'am on the point that the 3 iMac's here in house , 2 iphones, Macbook air airports (3)  and all other junk of apple wil go fly true the window !

    It was a new and clean install of Mountion Lion , i don't like update/grade's of pref system
    Mayby it was happend because i use VLAN's on my network, i had 5 VLAN's defined and there where working fine.
    until it screwed up
    The only what i have now is a usb disk and backup manualy all my stuff
    think i will install lion back instead mountion lion

    Niel...
    I installed Leopard 10.5.6 and then it upgraded to 10.5.8, when I installed it I had the old info saved to a "previous systems" folder, where most of my artwork, etc. were saved, I have a one terabyte Lacie backup that unfortunately did not work as it was intended...it saved the new info and not the old. I did look into the system preferences folder and found the classic file, of course it wouldn't launch...but I have the old G 5 startup discs and will try to do it as you stated. I will try also to move it out of the previous folders file to my hard drive and see how that works.
    thank you for your time and help,

    Hello.
    I just know the muse and I need an organization of customers in alphabetical order. The problem is that you will always get new customers. I need to know how to insert a new customer (square) and it already comes in alphabetical order on the page. The site will be like in the link below, and each client will be a window of these: http://www.connary.com/. I look back.
    A hug, Murilo.

    I believe you are referring to thumbnail image rectangles as customers on page ? not exactly customer database ?
    You can add rectangle with different effects with mouse rollover state and regarding adding new ones , you would need to do that manually in design mode .

  • I have a new MX922. All of a sudden I get Support Code C000 printer error has occurred

    I have a fairly new MX922.  All of a sudden I get Support Code C000 which says printer error has occurred.  There is nothing in the print cue.  I have restarted my computer.  I have turned the printer on and off. I have turned the printer off, unplugged the printer, plugged it back in again, and turned on.  The same message and flashing light for the error is still there.  I can't operated my printer. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks,

    Thanks and have a great day!

  • New Customer, Getting a lot of run around please help

    I need help. I am tired of getting run around. I want to switch to Verizon because of great customer service that my friends and colleagues talk about they receive from Verizon. My experience so far does not reflect that all. I per-ordered iPhone 6 plus on Sept 12th as a new customer, filled out all the info. to order new service and port my current number from an other provider. My order was completed and I received email confirmation by 2:30 CST (12:30 PST). The entire time during order process, I was being told that my phone will be delivered on Sept. 19th. The order status page still says "Expected Ship Date: Not available at this time.". I am not even sure if my order went through and If I am even going to receive a phone. I have called customer service several times and no one seems to know what's going on. COULD SOMEONE AT VERIZON PLEASE HELP and clarify if I am still going to receive my phone? This is getting extremely frustrating. My wife's and kids contract with our current service provid@er expire in August. I was going to switch them to Verizon as well, however, at this point I am not so sure if I am going to switch.

    They should be able to at least tell me if my preorder went through and ETA on the shipment right? or is that Apple's fault as well?
    If Verizon gets 4 million orders for iPhone 6es and they only sent Verizon 2 million and they cant tell Verizon when they will ship the the other 2 million then yes that is Apple's fault and Verizon has no way of telling you anything.

  • Problem in getting the new custom infotype in test client

    Hi All,
    I have created a new custom infotype. I can execute the infotype from the development system thru PA30.
    But when I tried to check in the test client (same system), it shows me that the infotype does not exist.
    Do I need to transport it to other client? If so please let me know how...

    You will need to import the Customizing TR(generated for Infotype) into other client. Use tcode SCC1 for importing TR without releasing it in the same system.
    Cheers,

  • New Customer with Service Issue

    I am very frustrated with Verizon & customer service. Our family is new to Verizon within the last month. We drop calls all the time and get choppy service by our house. I talked to local store and they advised for me to call Customer Service. The representative made me reset my new phone and everything, then they sent me to next level support. The next level support did a case and tried to sell me an extender which I refused to do. I am a new customer who spent alot of money to switch why should a spend another $250. The next level suppport stated they would call me back today after the case was resolved & did not. After a few dropped calls today, I called back, the first next level support person wanted to reset my phone again and told me the engineer said there not really an issue. He had me on hold several times and on the phone for over 25 minutes. The call then dropped and rep never called me back. Got on the click to chat and Hannah called me to try to resolve. She sent me to next level support who could only offer to sell me the network extender. I feel that I should have never switched from AT&T to Verizon because they just want me to spend more money and not resolve my issue. I am stuck in a contract and if there is an emergency that happens in my area then my children will never be able to get ahold of me. My childrens safety is the most important thing to me but not to Verizon. Very disappointed!!!

    Why did you switch?
    Why didn't you figure this out during the return period?
    You don't have access to any landlines for children to contact you in an emergency?

  • Load balancing 10g forms - Connection from new browser window not supported

    Load balancing 10g forms - Connection from new browser window not supported
    We're experimenting with using webcache to load balance between multiple applications servers running OC4J forms processes.
    We currently have one machine with infrastructure and mid-tier (BI & Forms) installed, which is being used for the webcache functionality, this is load balancing between 2 other servers each of which just have the mid-tier (BI & Forms) installation
    In order to get this to work, I had to follow the instructions in the Forms deployment guide : http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_11/web.1012/b14032/tuning.htm#sthref707
    The main gist of this is that you need to set the following in the orion-web.xml file in order that the sessions are maintained:
    <session-tracking
    cookies="enabled">
    </session-tracking>
    This all works fine in most cases.
    The problem I am having is if I do one of the following on the client machine:
    1) From IE6 / IE7 run a copy of a forms application. Then open a new window using the "New Window" menu option, and attempt to run another forms application.
    2) In IE7 or Firefox 2.0 open a copy of the forms application, and then open a new tab and try and open another forms application.
    If I try either of these I get a FRM-92101 error, and the following is displayed in the java console:
    oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException: Connection from new browser window not supported
    From trawling various forums (including metalink and otn) it looks like a problem with the way coockies are handled.
    Unfortunately the usual workaround is to ensure that the session tracking option in the orion-web.xml file is disabled.
    The problem is that I need this enabled in order for the load balancing to work.
    Does anyone know of any other workarounds or patches that might help resolve this?
    We're using Application server 10.1.2.0.2 running on windows 2003 servers.

    You were right. Carriage returns were stopping it from working (the document is laid out over separate lines, so I assumed it would make no difference...).
    I've now managed to get it so the forms at least run, but they are all being run in the forms OC4J instance on the same machine as the OHS.
    Has anyone actually managed to get this to work, or am I doing something wrong?
    I did wonder if using an OHS instance on a machine with no forms installation would make any difference?
    I had raised a support call via metalink on this subject, but they eventually came to the conclusion that the only way to do this is with a hardware load balancer (Despite several documents suggesting that webcache is the way to go (including the forms deployment manual)).
    I'm at the point now of giving up and writing some custom scripts to do the job instead...

  • New Customer: What is better deal, 3g or 3gs?

    Hey everyone,
    I'm a new customer and am planning on getting an iphone. Since majority of you have experience with both phones, I was hoping you could shed some light on what deal you think is best.
    For $199, I would love to get the 16g 3gs because it has everything i could possibly need and more, but i am concerned there are a few major quirks that need to be worked out since it is apple's newest phone. My biggest concerns are the signal strength, scratchable screen, battery life, and internet download speeds.
    For $99, the 8g 3g is still probably enough, but i would not have the peace of mind knowing i have the latest and greatest. On the otherhand, I would not have to worry about all the concerns I'd have with the 3gs because the 3g has been around for a while and im sure all its problems have been worked out.
    What do you guys think, is the 3gs the better deal and should I be concerned about what I mentioned above?
    Thanks

    iPhone 3GS FTW!
    Specs that you should know why 3GS >>> 3G

    Sorry if this has already been asked. Just got the newest i-pad had a bit of difficulty getting the charger in and now nothing not charging. HELP

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
