VZW Promised No Activation Fee, FAILED and now finger pointing between VZW store & customer service

I signed up for 2 samsung galazy S3 phones at the verizon store where I live.  I was promised no action fee since I was an existing customer.  I called the store numerous times, when they do answer they tell me to call customer service.  When I call customer service they tell me I need to call the store!!
All I get is apologies and NOTHING done to properly credit me back those fees!
This is an outrage and I dont think I can honestly recommend verizon wireless to anyone!!  I will be tweeting and blogging about this for along time!!

Funny joke, but the truth is that I left because of poor coverage where I live.  It's out in a rural area where there are lots of horses and farm animals (I am sure you are used to being around those).
Hilarious joke about your farm animals.  The truth is I wasn't joking, but now that you have cleared up your reason for leaving AT&T, another question comes to mind. 
Why would you return to poor coverage just to save a $30 upgrade fee, especially when AT&T also has their own activation/upgrade fee for contract purchase/renewals?

    I had somebody  work on my OS 10.9.2 to speed it up. He failed and now  Preview, Textedit, App Store, Mail (crashes) and Contacts  do not work anymore. I can still use Safari, Firefox, Word, Photoshop and iPhoto etc. How do I get the Apple programs fixed again?

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
         Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

    I currently have an I5 and as with the previous I4, both buttons have failed and now my battery lasts almost six hours if I don't use it. I cannot upgrade my phone until March, 2015 even though I recently upgraded my phone to the More Everything Plan.  Am I destined to be a nonuser for three months until I can upgrade. This is very unacceptable as I've been a Verizon Wireless customer for probably 20 yrs!

    As a 20 year customer of ours, we certainly appreciate your loyalty Richey_Rich. I know the importance of ensuring you have a properly operating phone. Can you please clarify which button on the device is not working? Is there any physical or water damage to your phone? Any applications that stay running?
    Thank You,

  • Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iPhone failed and now is not recognized by PC or itunes.  All troubleshooting has failed.  HELP!!!

    Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iphone failed and now the phone will not show up on itunes and is not recognized by my PC.  I tried all troubleshooting Apple says to do minus uninstalling itunes.  My wifes iphone still works fine with the same cable and itunes on my PC.  ----- Help!

    Hello. I was like this yesterday after upgrading 5.1.1. The proccess failed and the iphone only showed the USB cable with the iTunes logo.
    What I did was connect the iphone to my wife's PC, and there, with a clean itunes installation, install a clean 5.1.1. Then, went back to my iMac and connect it again, and now it works.
    But now, with my iphone working as new, it still cannot be showed up in itunes. I am still working on it.
    Good luck!

  • TS5376 I just attempted to update my apple iTunes to 11.1.4 which resulted in the msvcr80.dll error message. I followed all of the instructions above and now I can't get past the Service 'Apple Mobile Divice failed to start. Help!!!

    I just attempted to update my apple iTunes to 11.1.4 which resulted in the msvcr80.dll error message. I followed all of the instructions to move the .dll's to the desktop, I removed iTunes via the control panel, and now I can't get past the Service 'Apple Mobile Divice failed to start. Verify that you have sufficent privilidges to start systems services. I now have no iTunes on my laptop, can't reinstall iTunes, and I am pulling my hair out because I can not figure out how to send an e-mail to Apple because I bought my iPad just over a year ago.

  • My update failed and now my phone is frozen with the apple symbol

    I was updating my iPhone and it failed and now my phone is frozen with the Apple Icon.  It wont turn off or anything

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Updating MUSE failed, and now its gone

    I am a subscriber to the Creative Cloud. I was opening MUSE and got an update notice, so I accepted the update. The update failed, and now MUSE is gone. The Adobe Applications Manager shows that it is installed, but the MUSE program folder is empty. How can I download and install it again?

  • Updating my iPod Touch failed and now the screen is permanently lit with a white Apple logo above what appeares to be a download indicator bar. Now totally unresponsive and non-detectable by iTunes or my PC!

    Hi, Can anyone help. Updating my iPod via iTunes failed and now shows a permanently lit screeen witrh a white apple logo above what appears to be an empty download bar indicator.
    Neither iTunes or my PC will recognise or detect it wehen commected to the USB port.
    All iPod buttons are responsive, including diagnostics mode (Menu+Sleep buttons).
    Any ideas/suggestions?

    Hi IIIaass
    That's sorted it, thanks.
    I don't think I actually managed to get it into DFU mode, although not too sure what that is, but following Karthik's advice and although not quite getting the response from my iPod, as it suggested, it eventually came up with the USB piccy and iTunes icon. From there on everything fell into place and it is currently Synching with iTunes after having done a restore.
    Bravo !!

    Have latest version of iTunes installed and running. Also make sure you have internet access working and can access Apple websites. Also, make sure you don't have any entries in your hosts file referring to gs.apple.com....If your not sure about how to do that, go ahead and do the rest first. You can come back to that later.....Plug in phone. Put phone in DFU mode.(google put iphone in DFU mode for instructions) Then restore the phone in iTunes by highliting your device in the left column and click on the Restore button. The latest iOS version is 4.3.3. That's what iTunes will restore it to. When it's done restoring, iTunes will ask if you want to restore from a backup or setup as a new phone. I would use the Setup as a New Phone option. Once it's done, you should have a clean install of the iOS and an operating phone, as long as there are no hardware issues with it.

  • I was downloading Mavericks. Internet failed and now can't resume

    I was downloading Mavericks. Internet failed and now can't resume.
    I´ve tried several times and it says "OS X Mavericks failed to download"/Use the purchase page to try again. I went to purchase page but is impossible to resume.
    Could you help me please?

    Whatever you do, DO NOT REFORMAT THE DRIVE. You can just get a small <500Gb EXTERNAL bus powered drive, dismantle it and follow the instructions above. If you already have one then that's even better.
    The drive I'm showing here is the drive that used to be inside of my computer. It took apart an old 320Gb seagate drive. The connections on these drives are all universally interchangeable. They just add some circuits and a USB (or other) interface. I would just get the cheapest drive that you can get that is for laptops and looks simple to take apart. (This is almost exactly the drive that I did this too http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-FreeAgent-Portable-External-ST903203FAA2E1-RK/dp/B 001FWIE0K/ref=sr_1_56?ie=UTF8&qid=1343340447&sr=8-56&keywords=seagate+external+h ard+drive)
    The "old internal" drive should still be able to allow you to install ML on the "new" drive as long as you tell it to. It sounds complicated, but it's really not once you get in there and start doing it. It was actually quite easy.

    I recently did an update to my iphone 4s and now I have lost all my custom ringtones as well as some music I had loaded. I did a restore and backup but nothing changes. What have I done wrong?

    Hello Chance1985,
    Sorry for your wait. Okay so let's try re-connecting with iTunes on your computer and syncing your device. This may give you all your stuff back. Sync in Music tab.

  • I've installed ios5 on my iphone4 and now all the applications (app store

    Hello,
    I've installed iOS5 on my iphone 4 and now all the applications (app store, books..) are in deutsch instead of french
    even if all my parameters are in french. I leave in Swiss, french part. Thanks for your help.

    I understand.  The Swiss Apple website offers a choice of French or German and you can download a French version of the Swiss iTunes to your computer, but I do not know how you can change the language of the app on your phone. You can of course choose apps and download them to your computer, then sync them to your phone.  http://www.apple.com/chfr/itunes/
    Perhaps somebody here from Switzerland has an answer?
