Fingerprint scanner

Status: Acknowledged
by on ‎06-14-2013 07:41 AM

I have a laptop with the fingerprint scanning feature for storing passwords and logging into websites.  This feature makes it easy to use complex passwords without having to write them down.  And there is no need to worry about who is looking over your shoulder when you log in. 

 

But... It doesn't work on  Verizon.  Since I believe this technology will become more prevalent, I would like to see Verizon modify their login process to accomodate this feature.  Hopefully, your technical department understands how it works and can figure out why it doesn't work with your site.

Your request is interesting. Not sure how this works, but I will mention this to the proper team.

Grammatical Error on your website

There is a grammatical error on your website on the opening page. How about you proof your website by using people who actually know the difference between you're and your....And while we are at it, when someone has a suggestion like this, how about having an option for contacting us that isn't a bear to get through?

Thanks so much for the catch.

Stop pushing the same upgrade everytime that I logon.  If I didn't want it yesterday, I don't want it today.  Remind me next time is not a reasonable option.  Allow me to continue.  Thank you.

Battery Replacement Bogus Messages

Status: Acknowledged
by stevebo on ‎03-09-2013 11:40 AM

While it's nice that Verizon monitors my Backup Battery Unit, if I lose power, they assume that I need a (potentially expensive) battery replacement when all I have to do is unplug the battery and plug it back in.

 

Please Verizon, mention this in your communication instead of the dire, irresponsible warnings I get:

 

ONT BATTERY REPLACEMENT - ACTION REQUIRED

Our diagnostics have detected that the FiOS ONT backup battery that runs FiOS Voice services for up to 8 hours during commercial power outages, needs to be replaced.

Click the OK button to launch In-Home Agent where you can order a replacement battery. Need more info? Click www.verizon.com/battery

Failure to replace your battery may cause damage to your Verizon network connection equipment through leakage. Your FiOS services will continue to work as long as the ONT remains plugged in and continues to receive electrical power.

Thanks for the heads up. I will pass this on the the proper team.

HORRIBLE ONLINE EXPERIENCE

Status: Acknowledged
by bonniek on ‎01-25-2013 09:10 AM

I suggest that a company that wants to present itself as the go to company for Quantum internet services, completely re-vamp the online account services.  It is by far the MOST frustrating experience.  We can't navigate from page to page without signing in repeatedly.  And constantly have to respond to "security" emails sent to my email account.  Verizon should be embarrassed to present this to their customers.  Hands down the BEST services available for tv phone and internet is Verizon, BUT, this website is doesn't reflect it.

Stop political questions on home screen

Every time you ask a political poll question, I know in advance the answer that will win the poll because they are ALWAYS Republican based. Not once has a poll question been answered based on a democratic view. Please stop the bias on your website.

Thanks for providing your input. I will submit your idea to the appropriate team within Verizon.

Website could use a total overhaul

Status: New Idea
by SimpleIsBetter on ‎11-02-2011 06:12 PM

The one thing that Steve Jobs taught the world is that simple human interfaces are better.

 

Why do people set Google to be their home page?  It is SIMPLE and loads quickly.

 

The verizon website is NOT simple.  It is cluttered and littered and very inefficient.

 

I loose patience with it every time I try to do anything.

 

I have to visually search very hard to find anything on any page.  Nothing is obvious.

Then I have to click and click and click to get to the information I desire.

 

For example, when I go to look at my cell phone calls, it gives me this little tiny window that I have to scroll around.

But that's only one of 15 or so windows.  I have to click and click and click to get to the one I want.

Very cute.  Very inefficient.  I would like one very long listing.  My browser gives me a way to scroll.

Why does Verizon have to put a scrolling window inside a scrolling browser?

Maybe someone is trying way to hard to earn their paycheck.

And then it times out and resets.  Very secure.  So secure it discourages normal users.

 

Grrr...

Allow better online account management

Allow better online account management PLEASE.

 

Gotta love the upgrade and renewal site. Everything including the chat says upgrade and renewal.

No options to downgrade and not renew. That cuts into the bottom line!

 

It would be nice to just have a site where it was account management, and not marketing. The account as it stands allows you to upgrade or downgrade the services you wish. But not without renewing your bundle. You must call in to change services levels without a commitment date change. It was always my understanding, and what I am always told when calling, the contract/commitment dates are only for the bundle of services. Like triple play vs. double play. As long as you keep the services in your bundle, changes can be made at any time without changing your commitment.

 

Also allow the customer to see what the true cost would be for breaking a bundle and dropping a service such a phone. Every time I call for information and talk to a different person, the story changes, as I get passed from one dept to another. Last time I tried to drop phone services, they tried to hit me with the full 24 month Early Termination Fee, or told me I would be charged $230. With 12 month remaining shown on the web site. Let us go into the upgrade and renewal site, or account management site, and remove a service, show us the ETF with total services cost, and allow the option to be in a commitment or not. Come on put it in writing.

 

There is only a place to manage premiums and extras. You can remove those, but since they are paid in advance, do you get a credit for the remaining month, and the following month since they are paid in advance?

Reduce Marketing Costs

Please stop sending Get FIOS materials to those of us that do not have FIOS service available in our area.  I get it in bills, I see something on my home page everyday.  Today when I go to log in I have a popup about getting FIOS that I have to answer No Thanks Continue to My Home to get by.  This is extremely bad customer service when you keep asking customers if they want a product that they are not able to have.  As a paying customer, if you stopped sending  mail and  materials, some costs would be reduced, or at least used more wisely.  I would presume that demographic information regarding service areas is avaialble to whomever is doing the mailings, solicitations, etc., and that such a large company would be much better at this. 

 

Also I have taken particular notice that there is no place in the Support Tab PullDown Menu for Customer Service.  Not every customer wants to report a problem with a service, but rather their customer experience.

Jeepers... why is necessary to hit the Verizon.com landing page, login there, and then proceed to log in at least four more times to get to this page?????

 

This has been a problem for years.  What is your solution?

DON'T RUIN THE OLYMPICS

SPOILER ALERTS WOULD BE NICE! I have tried to avoid any news coverage of the olympics so I can watch at night and your front page COMPLETELY RUINED IT FOR ME.  There was no way to check my email and avoid the headlines due to the format of your homepage.

back to basics

Why is it that you must think everyone has the best and fastest service around?  Loading the basic screens with graphics and other things that slow the connection to a crawl is a poor business practice.  I could care less about all the bells and whistles you have, give ME the option to turn them off.

 

Today, it took three times to log in then I got Spanish screens.  I was not on my normal FiOS service but on a slow internet connection in Hawaii.

 

What I would like is a way to check my DVR settings without all the junk you feel I need to see.  I could care less about what you feel I want to view.  Just give me a basic screen to show me what is on my DVR and what is set to record without all the bells and whistles.  What is so hard about going back to basics?

 

Another example is this screen for posting an idea.  you want me to choose a category for the idea, but you do not have a pulldown for that, which is easily overlooked by some.  You had to go to extra lengths to turn off the spell check for this box alone.  Where are you guys being trained?

 

You get a D----  for a grade in overall design, lack of backward compatibly, and failure to test your site.

Make the Community Search button and dialog box larger.

Make the Community Search button and dialog box larger. It has always been overwhelmed by the Google Search. Many people may be confused about looking for answers here, and or finding them on the web. Make it larger and more dominant. Perhaps even change it to.

 

Community

   Search

 

and make the red box larger. With all the discussion regarding people not searching, it could be better if this whole dialog was made larger, and shifted up and to the left a bit.
