Thread: Verizon = Bitches

  1. #1

    Default Verizon = Bitches

    I officially hate them

    I got a $500 phone bill because of a mistake they made. I switched phone numbers with my dad and they said that the plan was going to switch along with it, and it didnt. So now they expect me to pay because I was txting away on a plan that DIDNT have txt. OMFG.

    Well I've been on the phone ALL day with them and I flat out said that I wasnt paying the bill, and they dont seem to care. They still insist its my fault. Oh well, what are you gonna do? Lol

    im willing to bet, it was your fault.

    Everytime I hear people complain about cellphone companies is mostly the customers fault.

    I have cingular, never no problems.
    My GF has Verizon, never no problems.

    I bet you text your life away hahahahahha

    THANK YOU!!!

    Finally, a customer that understands that most of the shit that goes "wrong" is their fault. Just about every major wireless carrier is the same. With the exception of the small local ones, such as metro pcs. I have people come in saying that Cingular's service has gone down ever since they took the AT&T name That's funny b/c there was no change in service, it was only a major name change As long as your not constantly traveling and all that stuff, the 4 major wireless providers are pretty evenly matched.

    What I really don't understand is when parents get their kids the lowest text messaging plan, knowing damn well their children are going to use waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over 400 texts. For every 69 text you go over, that's already $10 in overages. People cheap out a few bucks, just so they can save $120/year?? And then their kids come home with $60-$120 in overages from text a month If you would had unlimited texting from the beginning, you wouldn't of seen these overage charges. That money you pay in overages each month, could of been applied to your monthly bill in small increments so that you don't have that problem

    That sucks my mom went through something like that with our plan with Sprint. She stayed her ground and won in the end. She also got a shit load of stuff for the inconvenience and being a 6+ year member.

    nah man

    i have t mobile and they do try pulling a slick one on you every once in a while

    i pay the extra 30 bux for an extra thousand minutes just in case so I NEVER EVER EVER go over (i'd rather pay an extra 30 bux a month, than get hit with a 600$ overage (happened once) )

    so yeah i have unlimited messaging, a shitload of minutes, free mobile to mobile and what not right
    basically my bill is supposed to be EXACTLY the same every month

    so every few months they try to pull bullshit overages right

    i just call in, tell them to review it ... .they say "well it seems we have some computer problems and it wasn't calculating your mobile to mobile calls as free... etc etc" so they fixed it... this even happened 3 months in a row when i just called in and they fixed it... had i not called in they woulda jacked me for what? like 20-50 bux each of those times... Had I not been watching my bill closely or been on that autopayment shit I woulda never known (i'm sure they sucker some ppl like that too) ... I mean its fuckin 2007, how the hell are you going to have technical difficulties on shit like that? What are they running Windows ME? C'mon especially a company that grosses as much as them... I think teh whole technical difficulty shit is a scam, it was intentional.

    lol... I've started using a cellphone back in 97 with bellsouth then they switched to at&t then cingular and now at&t again...

    and Guess what, NO PROBLEMS.. NOT ONE TIME. I have 3 phones with cingular NONE of them, no issues. I know what I have exactly on my bill every month.

    I dont now.. I dont work in cellphone companies.. but I bet 9 out of 10 customers complaints are BS

    Actually, when I called to have the two numbers switched, they guy I talked to confirmed everything with me, and I even asked him to make sure that my number matched my plan. Then when I called to complain today about the bill someone was like "he didnt do it right" and yet someone else was like "you cant even do that." So to be honest, it seems like every employee at Verizon tells me something different.
    I would admit if it was my mistake and I would pay the bill, but I added everything up and if they had switched the plan correctly into my name, I wouldnt owe anything extra.





    *Anyhow, I upgraded everything so that I dont have to worry about it anymore =)

    Yeah. The good thing is, now that I bitched enough, they canceled my plan, for free, then signed me up for a new one, and upgraded. Everything is cool now.


    But I still have to pay $500.........Ehh maybe

    you just have to bitch, they do fuck up a lot, cingular fucking sent me a new phone as an upgrade and when we got that shit complete, the fuckers had it set to disable my sim card of 5 years, so i had to take it down and have everything copied over, LAME.

    verizon is lame, i remember when it was airtouch, good lord. GSM>CDMA
