No one home in the Fraud Dept.

I notified Verizon Wireless two days three days ago that my account has been hacked.  I've waited on hold only to be told by customer service that Fraud isn't answering the phone and they will call me back.  No has called back.  Someone continues to send texts on my account and no one at Verizon will stop it.  Verizon Wireless is apparently too incompetent to prevent fraud and unwilling to hire enough people to resolve fraud issues.

ME TOO!  Heard the message about"being important...wait a brief moment" 11X
Fraudulent ALERT telling me I'm close to overage and will incur charges. Please call 800-986-9639. 
Instead I decides to phone cust service.transferred to FRAUD DEPT only to be in WAIT queue over 13 minutes. I've used 9/100MB DATA, 82 / 500 Msg so low usage nowhere near overage.
Anybody else get this cellphone text alert? Where do you contact administration? Call center isn't working.

  • Why did I get an email from the fraud dept saying my order is on hold, told to call a number, and then told by dept it's not true?

    I placed an order to upgrade my phone yesterday, and the order went through, I was told the new phone would arrive Thursday. After I got home from work today I saw an email from Verizon that says "Dear Customer:
    Verizon Fraud Prevention Team is currently reviewing the following order on your wireless account. Please call the Verizon Fraud Prevention Team at 888-483-7200 option 3, press 1 to verify this Order."
    I called this number immediately, since I need this phone ASAP, assuming it would just be a recording and I would have to verify an account number or something. But instead, after following the instructions, I was put on hold because I needed to speak to someone in person. After several instances of my call being cut off after being on hold for at least half an hour, I finally got through after three hours and was able to speak to a fraud representative. I gave her my info and told her the problem and she told me I had called the wrong department. Instead of the fraud department, I needed the online order department. She transferred me, and I waited on hold again. When the representative from the online order dept picked up, she first told me if it was a fraud issue I'd need to speak with the fraud dept - who had JUST transferred me to her. After this, she said that my order is not on hold, because it hasn't even been processed yet or had the credit check done. When I asked if this meant I hadn't needed to call at all, she said yes. Is this actually true or is there a chance that there's an issue with my order I don't know about? If there is no issue, these emails really shouldn't be sent out, they're incredibly misleading, and I've wasted a whole lot of time and experienced an incredible amount of anxiety for no reason.

    Hi.  I checked on the order and it says the order is currently being processed and I should check back tomorrow. I'm mostly just concerned because I got an email saying the order was on hold, and I want to make sure it actually does go through and I'm not just waiting for a delivery that's not going to come. I'm still confused as to why I'd get an email saying I had to call the fraud department only to be told I shouldn't have called the fraud department.

  • Why do the fraud dept ignore customers?

    This is an ongoing saga relating to fraudulent use of my bank and EE details and the impossibilty of getting someone from the fraud dept to contact me. EE contacted me on the 6th of June to say they suspected fraudulent  activity on my account. On the 19th of June my bank account was debited for £38.01 by an EE direct debit. I was unable to check my account until the 23rd of June when I notified EE (and my bank) of the fraudulent payment. They told me the Fraud Team would speak to me within 72 hours. The following day a delivery company phoned my son’s mobile to say they were unable to deliver an item of high value to an address in Birmingham which we have no connection with. I have never used my son's phone but I used to pay for it some years ago. This suggests to me that the fraudster has a connection to EE/Orange. Again I notified EE.  I phoned again on the 29th of June to point out that the Fraud Team had still not been in touch and was told they would speak to me  within a few days.  I phoned again on the 3rd of July to register a complaint and was told I would be contacted by the Fraud Team within 7 days. I rang the Complaints department again on the 13th of July to be told for the first that the fraud dept  required a recent bank statement but it wasn’t explained why no one from EE had ever asked me for one.  I sent the recent statement that showed the fraudulent payment on the same day. I phoned the Complaints dept again (25th of July) but was only told that the Fraud dept were looking into it and would 'hopefully' be in touch.  

    Hi ,
    I am very sorry you have had these problems.
    This is a public forum no accounts can be accessed.
    Do you have an Orange or EE account with us?
    Thanks.

  • Notified Verizon of International Travel & The Fraud Dept Suspends My Service for One International Call

    I called Verizon to notify them that I would be out of the country traveling to Portugal and Spain.  Based on the customer service representative's advice, I added international calling to my plan.  While in Spain, I called my daughter.  My phone stopped working.  Luckily, it was near the end of my trip and I had internet access at the hotel to communicate with my family. When I arrived in the U.S., my phone did not have service.  I called Verizon three times and finally learned that they had suspended my phone service because of suspected fraud.  My one call from Spain had somehow caused them to suspend service even though I had called to activate international calling.  I did not receive any type of notification that my service was suspended. Today, three weeks after the call from Spain, the fraud department called and were on the verge of suspending my service a second time.  If I had not answered, they were suspending my service.  I understand that preventing fraud is important, but I am very upset that my service was suspended when I did everything that I was supposed to do to use Verizon's international calling feature. Today, the representative said there was not a note in my file about my previous call to the fraud department. Why would they suspend my service two weeks after reinstating it?  Is one call from Spain enough to warrant suspending service when a customer has international calling? What can I do to prevent this happening in the future?

  • Get a hold of someone in the fraud dept stop cancling my orders

    my orders are randomly canceled all the time and calling the 1-888-bestbuy is useless. no one can ever answer why orders are canceled nor can they transfer you to someone who can, so all my money in my checking account is tied up for 3 days! what is the use of that number, why pay people to answer the phones if they cant actually help you? i can go into the store and have them place it through express lane and it will still get canceled sometimes. OMS orders are the only orders not to get canceled, but not everything can be bought through OMS.

    Hello there jimmyzshack,
    Having your orders canceled for unknown reasons would be quite frustrating, and I’m sorry if we have been unable to provide you that reason. That being said, orders may cancel for a number of reasons. Those reasons could consist of fulfillment issues, payment issues, being unable to verify a piece of your information, a limitation on quantities, etc.
    While some issues could be resolved by double checking your information and correcting a mistake, or waiting for an item to become available again, others may not be as simple. In regards to the limitation on quantities, we reserve the right to reject any order you place with us from the same BestBuy.com account, the same credit card, or orders with the same billing/shipping address. Subsequent orders for an item may be canceled if you have reached the quantity limitation.
    I do apologize for any inconvenience your order cancelations may have caused you. If you should have any questions, please let me know.
    Regards,

  • How can I move apps from one sheet of the home page to another?

    . On my iPhone 5c I cannot rearrange the icons from one part of the home page to another. Suggestions?

    Define "cannot rearrage."  Exactly what did you do and exactly what happened? 
    Did you press on the icons until they wiggle, slide them to the page you want and then press the home button?

  • When I use Home sharing, I can see the library I want to copy, but when I highlight the library, the import button does not show up. Also, it will not let me drop and drag. How do I get music from one computer to the other computer?

    When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?

    Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
    If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data.

    we have 2 itouchs, we a separate itunes account for each one. We have one home computer to use them both on for sync and icloud, the icloud will not accept the 2 accounts?

    Do you know what happens if you delete the icloud account from an iphone 4s?  Will it delete the pictures, documents, etc. from the phone, or just unlink the icloud from the phone?  I want to associate a different icloud account to the phone.

  • Can I have more than one home page so that both would open upon connecting to the internet?

    On my desktop I can have more than one home page so that they all load when I connect to the internet.
    On my laptop, I cannot figure out if or how I can add a second home page. Is it possible to have more than one home page on my laptop?

    Firefox can have more than one homepage. Multiple homepages are separated by the keyboard character "|".

  • Is there a way to open a new window with one site when the home setting on Firefox has multiple websites?

    While working in Firefox is there a way to open a new window with one site when the home setting on Firefox has multiple websites?

    I guess I'm not explaining myself fully. I have a home page designation in firefox preferences that starts firefox up with 5 sites. that pretty fills up my screen with tabs.
    At some point I want to initiate another WINDOW in firefox (NOT a tab). I would like to be able to open up a window that ONLY has ONE tab, or as if there were only one site designated as the home page. This gives me a workspace that has my most useful sites available in tabs in one window, and also another WINDOW that I can move around in and even create more tabs without messing up my primary set of TABS (in my primary window). I see how this might not be doable without doing what I do now, which is open up a new window, and then close tabs until the new window just has one tab for me to work from.

    Hi Cassi,
    If you are ordering subscriptions for various people in your office, it would be best to sign up under their Adobe IDs, so they can log in and use the subscription with their own credentials. As for moving the current subscription, the easiest route is to cancel the current subscription (see Cancel your membership or subscription | Acrobat, Acrobat.com online services--or I can help), and then reorder as necessary.
    Best,
    Sara

  • How often syncs Firefox sync with the server were my bookmarks are storaged? Can I turn of the historical sync because one computer is at home and the other is at work. So I use totally different webpages and would like to have the history disabled.

    How often syncs Firefox sync with the server were my bookmarks are storaged? Can I turn of the historical sync because one computer is at home and the other is at work. So I use totally different webpages and would like to have the history disabled.

    OK, I found the part about history. It is just to unmark that.
    But still i wonder how often it sync? Instantly? Or when closing FF?
