Verizon NOT willing to bargin

I have been a Verizon customer for years. Their customer sales service is less than satisfactory, online is even worse. The good news is that I have waited patiently for my Verizon contract to finally expire! YAY!! That day has come! Now I have given Verizon a fair chance to sell me a new phone at the same price as a big box type store, I have even offered to lock myself into anoter 2 year contract with Verizon, IF they would sell me the phone at the lower price. We are talking one hundred dollars folks. Verizon online; "can't modify on line prices"!! Firm! no way! Ever. So I call customer support, "NO", it can't be done, no way. Even though Verizon DID offer that very same phone one hundred dollars less just last month.Verizon tells me to "go to that big box store and buy that phone there". Really? I ask. But I want to buy it from Verizon, I explaine. Nope. No Can do, states the sales rep as well as her supervisor. BAD way to run a business I think. Now, of course I will consider my other options, with another company because Verizon sure don't want my business!! Who needs a new 2 year contract anyway? Not me!!!!

They give you a "deal". Then, you come to this same forum bragging about that deal and now they have a plethora of phone calls wanting that same deal. All, by the way, because they went against their policies. The very policies you were aware of when you spoke with them.
Call your cable or satellite provider and see how well that "deal" goes over with them.

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sims chip...we are told. We were advised that this model wound work in Euro

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sim chip...we are told. An Apple store employee here said this model is good only in the US. The iPads here take a sim card. We were advised by an Apple Store Employee at home that this model would work in Europe and that we could buy our service here. That does not seem to be the case. We have been told that we must invest in a modem at 200.00€ and then purchase a separate service plan for each country. We can use the free wifi wherever it is available but we cannot connect to the outside world when out of range. Is there anything else we can do?
Thanks, John

Unfortunately, no other solution is available.
Hope this helps

Why would Verizon not replace my Samsung Galaxy S5 that is not performing the way I need it to?

My Samsung Galaxy S5 will not allow me to have my corporate exchange email and my personal .com email on it at the same time. I have spent hours on the phone with Verizon technical support as well as Samsung and according to both, the phone will not allow it and the only thing I can do is to pay for a "touchdown" application to manage my emails. If the phone does not allow such a simple function that all other phones seem to do, why would Verizon not sympathize and replace the phone with something that would work for me. I been a loyal customer for over 8 years and the only thing I was told was that "the system would not allow them" to swap out the phone with something else. Unbelievable. Has anyone else had a similar issue?

Broke new phone Verizon couldn't help even give me form for insurance I pay for in their stores.Seperate corp.Had no Internet waited 2 weeks mail me form.They suck.Did run across 1 dude finially knew his stuff and personally handeled many problems.It was after most working there didn't took me month replacement phone mailed.If customers service person seems new ask for someone can fix problems asap.

I'm fairly sure the Verizon CDMA iPad 2 had no GSM sim slot. So it won't work with any other carrier except Verizon.
As far as the AT&T version goes, it should technically work but will not support 4G/LTE cellular bands.
Given iPad 2's are no longer being sold, I doubt any that could be bought would have a warranty still. Or have at most very little of it left.
Why an iPad 2? its now 3 generations behind the current one.
Perhaps an iPad 4 would be a better choice.

Continued issues with droid charge, Verizon not of any help

Another week, one day I spent 87 minutes on the phone with Verizon Wireless. Many visits to the store, many other long phone calls. Poor customer service, the Samsung Charge has been replaced again, same problems. Many people have admitted these problems, from store associates to managers, yet when I speak with Verizon they will not move us out of this phone into something that works, only to lesser, older phones available, some I can't even find on the site. We are not the only people having problems with this phone and no one will accept the failures that continue to happen with this Samsung Charge. We have had LG, Motorolla, etc. My iPhone doesn't give me one bit of problem, nor have our other phones, just this one. I would think after being loyal customers that they would be more willing to help. I have only had one supervisor that actually was helpful, as much as he was allowed. Another supervisor was down right rude, his manager was to call me within 72 hours and has still not called me. I think we will be foreced to switch carriers and never purchase another Samsung phone product.

I'm not the original poster but found this post while trying to find a solution to my problem. My problem is the contacts and everything related to them but most importantly, syncing with Microsoft Outlook.
1) When I add a contact directly to my phone and mark it as a phone contact and save, it stays on the phone for a few days and then all the "phone" contacts just disappear. I reinstall them and they disappear again, after another few days. So, I tried installing them as Corporate contacts and they stayed longer. Then I started having a different problem.
2) My corporate contacts are set to sync automatically every day. Most days the phone is okay but after another few days, I'll look and my contacts have loaded again, the exact same contact is now on my phone twice. I went to the store and the guy said to just delete the second contact from the phone. Really, that was his response. I didn't think it would do much good but I followed his advise. Everything was fine for a few days...then,
3) My corporate contacts synced two, three and even four times...the same contact on my phone. Knowing the guy at the store would just tell me to delete the extra's, I did and guess what...I have the contacts on my phone but they are no longer in my Microsoft Outlook contacts list. Deleted from Outlook. I can't get them to sync back to Outlook again.
If I can get the contacts to reload on Microsoft Outlook, I'll disable the sync program but geezzzeeeee. I do not want to retype more than 2000 contacts back into Outlook.
What do I do?

I am going from Droid phone to iPhone 6 plus. I don't want to lose my text message history. I have backed up to verizon Cloud will that be sufficient?

I Have purchase an iPhone 6plus and currently own a Droid Phone. I don't want to lose my text messages, will my backup to Verizon Cloud ensure this transfer?

Wondershare Mobile Transfer works! Everything on your droid phone including text messages can be transferred to your IPhone! I just completed a transfer from my Droid 4 to an Iphone6+! I am so very happy! Make sure you have iMessages enabled on your IPhone before starting transfer and all your text history is brought into iMessage. Please Verizon Customer Service tell all your customers about this easy solution. I spent over 13 hours with Verizon Customer Service to be told it couldn't happen. NOTE: Verizon Message will only sync with messages created after it is installed (no history will ever appear on another device prior to Verizon Message install) as I was misinformed that downloading this to my droid would enable my IPhone to see those messages.

Verizon not interested in long time customers?

I am upset that Verizon is not willing to extend an early
upgrade to a longtime customer who has been with the company for 13+ years. I
have been having issues with my current phone for the past year and half, and
am 6 months away from an upgrade. I realize that it is early, but since I have
been such a long time customer I would think they would want to keep my
business and extend a courtsey.
I spoke to many customer service agents, who told me they would
call me back, but did not, then when I finally spoke to another agent, was told
that I could add a line and would be credited for doing so, but when I was transferred
to sales, I was told I could not, and sales was stunned I was even offered the solution.
I was offered yet another replacement for the phone I have, it
would be my 4th one. Why they dont want to keep a long time customer by letting
me purchase a new phone at the 2 year contract price, (I'm willing to extend
the contract) instead of paying full price is beyond me. I was told that I
could get an Iphone 4 for $349!! Why do that when what I want is listed for
149.? Why do they not want to retain customers?
I will be leaving Verizon after such a long time and looking at
AT&T and telling everyone I know about it and looking at our business account as well.

There is your answer right there. You "want" an iPhone. You didn't say if you had TEC or EW, so the fact that VZW is offering you a phone replacement after a year and six months is not good enough? You can't take the replacement and ride it out for 4 months till you CAN upgrade? Being a customer for years does not a special situation make. Warranties, upgrade dates, are what they are. Your threat to move companies falls on deaf ears as every wireless company has the same policies.

My "Notes" app on my iPhone 4S is no longer syncing up with my "Notes" app on my PC or on my iPad. It was syncing up fine before. But no longer. How do I fix this so that whatever I type in iPhone "Notes" will appear in my other devices' "Notes"?

Notes will not Sync in iTunes with iPhone 3.0

I just installed the new 3.0 OS and notes will note sync across. I use the regular Mail application and every time I select the Sync Notes checkbox in iTunes sync setup it does the sync but then deselects the box on its own. Everything else is syncing perfectly except that. I have both a small list of notes on the iPhone and notes in Mail. I assume all of these should combine. Someone please help.

I was a little confused after updating to 3.0. I kept looking in my email accounts and found nothing, it was only after clicking the mail icon in the dock did I find it in the reminders in the left hand column.

Sometimes a note will not let me edit it on my iPad or iPhone.

Something is happening in the notes app. It's not happening just on the iPad, so it's not actually an iPad issue but an issue with the notes app. Out of nowhere, one of the notes will not be editable. As in, when I try to type in, it won't give me a keyboard, If I select some text from another note, I can't paste it into the document in question. Anyone else experienced this? Am i missing something in the notes app?

To change the iCloud ID on your iOS devices, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save these to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

Is Verizon not allowing connections to alternate DNS servers anymore?

Last night I ran a DNS benchmark test, and a notice popped up saying my ISP was intercepting and redirecting all outgoing DNS requests. I've been using OpenDNS for a year now without any problems, then I found out last night I am not connecting to their servers, so I tried Googles servers, no luck there either.
I called tech support (several times) and no one could give me a straight answer to my question: Is Verizon not allowing connections to alternate DNS servers anymore? I was forced to switch back to Verizon servers, not happy about that.
Can someone please answer my question? Thanks.

I'm on FiOS and I've got no issues using OpenDNS. I have the Quantum router set to use it. Works fine.
I've manually changed DNS on my computer to google's servers. No problems with this, either.

Notes will not sync

I have an original iPhone (2G?-not sure if that's the correct term, but it's a late 2007 model, 8GB) and have just updated its OS from 1.1.4 to 3.1.3 but find that my Notes will no longer sync. iTunes (v9.3) seems to stall for a moment (following the progress bar saying Notes are syncing), then carries on with a warning window over iTunes screen saying "iTunes could not sync to the iPhone '(Name)' because the iPhone disconnected". But it didn't disconnect. I checked all the connections and tried this several times with the same result.
Could it be my Mail prefs? (I'm very cautious about deleting those because I don't want to lose all the settings in my Mail accounts.) Or the iTunes prefs (likewise cautious).
After the iPhone OS update I restored form backup - I understand that's not ideal but I wanted to restore all my Notes (!!) and SMS messages. They all went back onto the iPhone after the update but they don't appear in Mail and won't sync over to Mail. Also, I've tried adding a test Note in mail but that will not sync over to the iPhone either.
Can I actually get the Notes to sync? Many thanks in advance for any advice offered.

I ended up deleting all of the screwed up Notes from mail.
Then, I purchased and downloaded MobileSyncBrowser to recover my notes from my iPhone backup.
The $10 classic version would do the job.
http://homepage.mac.com/vaughn/msync/register.html
Worked great. I exported each note as a text file using MobileSyncBrowser, then created a new note for that text, pasted the note in. Did that for all 82 Notes, and they sync'd to my iPhone and to my iPad just fine.
Once done recovering my Notes, I backed up the folder ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Notes.mbox for safe keeping.
Before I deleted it, there was a folder called Notes, instead of Notes.mbox, I think?
In any case, my Notes are now back, and are synced to the iPhone and iPad again. Life is good.

Is there a norwegian dictionary in pages? If not, will apple ever make one?

Hi!
Since I'm norwegian, I often write texts and articles in Norwegian on my Mac. I currently have pages, but it bothers me that it always corrects my texts to swedish or english. So my question is, is there a norwegian dictionary for pages that I haven't found yet, and if not, will there ever be?
Sincerely, Lise.

Not yet from Apple, and nobody in these forums can tell you whether Apple will ever add some feature you want.
