Status: New Idea
by on ‎10-08-2011 12:53 PM

Verizon needs to add more software to the Mac a lot of Macs are being bought now Verizon should make a special gaming platform just for Macs Verizon should try making apps for the new Mac app store I see a lot of new modern video games in their also a app should be made in the Mac app store to support flex view on the Mac just like Verizon did with the iphone through itunes app store also Macs can support video games better then PC's Macs can handle more advanced graphics and hardly ever lag like PC's plus most Macs can support HD or even 3D games.

Fix Verizon Perks - Closed Restaurants

Status: Acknowledged
by DannyKSRQ on ‎01-27-2012 08:43 AM

Entertainment.com seems to be unwilling to update the list of restaurants. Maybe they're unwilling to admit they have hundreds fewer restaurants than they claim nationwide. Just in Sarasota, FL I found 8 closed restaurants. Several weeks ago I notified entertainment.com about one of them and they responded that they don't deliberately list closed restaurants, but it's still on the list along with the others. I find it hard to believe their representatives who call on the businesses to sell them on advertising don't know this and haven't informed entertainment.com.

My boyfriend and I are looking to get FIOS for our new place. We only have a one year lease, so we need to sign up for a month-to-month plan. We attempted to do this, and I as an existing Verizon customer skipped the "optional" social security number field. This led to a number of bad moves on Verizon's part:

1) I have received almost daily automated phonecalls asking me to call Verizon to finish placing my order. Some of these calls come early in the morning and wake me up.

2) The first time I called, I was transferred to the department which could verify my identity. I asked for the number in case I was disconnected. I was disconnected, and the number ended up being the main Verizon number. When I dialed it, after ten minutes of holding and getting transferred, I learned the real number I should have been given.

3) When I called this number, I was assured by the representative that I would be called back if we got disconnected. I was transferred over to the identity verification department and placed on hold for 15 minutes before my call was disconnected. I never received a call back from the representative.

 

I have spent more than three hours now trying to sign up for FIOS, and I am incredibly frustrated that most of this unnecessary work could have been avoided had I known how essential the inclusion of my SS# was.

When an appointment confirmation Email is sent, there is a link to reschedule or confirm. When confirming an appointment it would be nice to have an acknowledgment that the appointment has been confirmed. Perhaps another Email saying the appointment has been confirmed.

Customer Service Hours?

Status: Acknowledged
by Pstreicher1 on ‎12-08-2011 04:50 PM - last edited on ‎12-08-2011 05:03 PM by Moderator

Would it be too much trouble to post the hours someplace obvious? I spent five minutes on the phone tree just to end up hearing that 'Our ofices are now closed'. **bleep**? Could there not be a place on this WWW to post the hours or at the very least, provide an option on the phone tree. OMG! How I hate, hate, hate, today!!!!!

mac os x 10.7.1 lion customer support technical support

Status: New Idea
by on ‎09-22-2011 01:20 PM

while you are updating the home page add more features for mac os x 10.7.1 lion show more advertisement of your products working on mac computers like flex view media manager gaming on demand support and premium technical support and update your screen sharing to work with mac os x 10.7.1 lion like bomgar and gotoassist this will bring you more business and less complaints

First: Your customer service phone numbers such as 888-591-6075, 888-244-4440, 800-837-4966 all use the same answering system. In the first place save your customers some time by not making a fool of them and getting rid of those multiple numbers or use those numbers to directly connect to sales / tech support / business service. You say it does, but call and see: they dont do that. 

 

Second: Make your system a little simpler. We need to be rocket scientists to use your system. Ask for thousand information and takes to the wront place all the time. For example I entered by account number (need not to say you people assign million different account numbers to the same account/bill) and then asks for zip code and takes me to Dallas TX when i need a DC office and they put me back to the system and then call goes to FL. I have ner been able to get to the DC service without screaming at one and asking them to stay on the phone and then make the transfer.

 

Three: Your website is simply full of **bleep**. There are a million of un-necessary information. I am a business owner and your site provides so much information on how social media and blog articles and bla bla which is useless and those can be found anywhere on the web from more reliable sources. BUT if I try to add a service to my account or change the contact address of my account or something very simple, it is IMPOSSIBLE to do. 

I have a fios internet account and just tried to add fios tv. Gave me a fancy interface with prices, but when i try to add it asked me whether i am a customer or not. Selected existing customer and put my username and password to login which i use to pay my bill. Doesnt log in. Then put my phone number. Then that dont work. I put my address. Then takes me to verizon mobile site, which dont have jack about fios.

 

PLEASE RESPECT OUR TIME AND DONT WASTE IT. EITHER FIX YOUR STUPID PHONE SYSTEM AND WEBSITE OR PLEASE TAKE THEM DOWN. I REGRET SO MUCH HAVING A CONTRACT WITH YOU GUYS FOR THE INTERNET CONNECTION. IM SO READY TO MOVE FOR A 5MBPS CONNECTION WITH SOME OTHER COMPANY GIVING UP MY EXISTIN 35/35 FIOS CONNECTION JUST BECAUSE YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS SO HORRIBLE. TAKE A LOOK AT ALL THE COMPLAINS ABOUT YOUR BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Say NO Permanently to Adobe Flash

Status: New Idea
by jb1 on ‎12-15-2011 10:02 AM

I do not know if this forum is correct because every submission is for TV and related. It is like there is no other Verizon but the TV station Verizon.

 

My complaint is that SO MANY news stories I click on are NOT really news stories but videos.  Repeatedly I am asked

 

Flash is required to view this content. Please install the Adobe Flash Player

 

I WILL NEVER install Adobe Flash. There are SO MANY problems with it and with its security holes.  So, why not allow me to chech a box, NEVER ask me this question again.  The answer is ALWAYS going to be NO!!!!!!!!!! 

 

Even if I did click YES, I am at work.  The IT department (Information Technology) automatically blocks all loading of software, and BESIDES, automatically blocks all Flash from coming into the company because it is SO DANGEROUS.

 

SO, just stop driving me crazy with that hated Flash demand to install Flash.

https connections in account sensitive areas

Status: In Progress
by macgig on ‎09-19-2011 05:27 AM

think I see why my account was compromised. one possible reason at least.

 

its' not a secure connection when logged in. all my account info is at  http://www22.verizon.com/

 

shouldn't that be an https connection? this is my account info, sensitive data... which has been compromised.

 

without the https, any info I enter, like a password, can be seen/grabbed by someone else. right?

Status: In Progress
I believe that this change is in progress.

just called to cancelled the fios that I never ordered. someone ordered online, pretending to be me. And got the order through. fake email and fake phone that was NOT MINE.

 

I guess they got into my account? guessed the password and ordered from within my account??? I don't know. the verizon person said they did not order from a phone. was done online.

 

My suggestion is, next time an order comes in supposedly from me, call me to verify it. Do not make me call you. I should not have too.

 

is verizon in such a need for money that they will process orders that did not come from me? you need to verify the identity of someone saying they are me... BEFORE you give the OK for an order/purchase...

Status: Clarification Needed
I have a question for you, though. If it was ordered via your account, how are they supposed to know it's not from you? How would you propose they verify - by sending an additional email to your primary info on your account? And was the order placed to go into your home and not another address? Just checking so we can forward your feedback on to the site owners.

Make Customer service better.

Status: Acknowledged
by Erin32 on ‎03-21-2012 06:00 AM

Yah, thats all I have to say.  Actually give a water blockage device about things we have to say. Also, when a customer needs help dont just send me to the unhelpful online agent. Nothing on this website has helped me in anyway shape or form. I am still haveing the same problems that I had when I  signed up and I still haven't heard a thing back from verizon.

Status: Acknowledged
I'm sorry for your frustrations. If there is anything specific I can help you with, please feel free to send me a Private Message or create a thread on the Forums.

Coupons window

Status: Acknowledged
by MaxnSally on ‎12-20-2011 08:03 PM

The Coupons window is very annoying.  When you click on the "x" to close the window, you'd expect it to close, not wait and pop up in the next screen and usually right in the middle of the information you're trying to read.  If I want the coupons, I'll get them.  Please make it so that when a customer clicks on the "x" to close the window, that it stays closed until their next session.

Make Verizon web sites work with Firefox

Status: Acknowledged
by JustGotFiOS on ‎02-16-2013 10:24 AM

Except for a few main pages all Verizon pages on the website fail to work properly with Firefox. This is due to the incorrect handling of web forms that Firefox correctly submits as well as the rampant IE-only code that is not W3C HTML compliant as can be seen with online validation tests.

It is so bad that I cannot even use Firefox to submit this idea. OK, it really is a complaint and yes I notified suppor and the web team quite a while ago and even requesting status updates yields neither a usable response nor any changes for the better. Ignoring web standards and not supporting the top three common browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome) equally well is just grossly negligent and suggests that those maintaining the web site lack technical knowledge.

Status: Acknowledged

Sorry to hear about your difficulties accessing the sites using Firefox.  I do not personally experience any problems, but I will forward this on to the My Verizon team to see is there are any other reported issues. Thank you for your input.
