Today is July 3, 2013. I have had no landline since June 11, 2013. My daughter has made numerous Repair Tickets and numerous calls to Verizon Repair for me. First ticket was cancelled without notice. Next ticket Repair Service came out for 5 minutes and said they would be back tomorrow. Every ticket thereafter has resulted in the same outcome.
I have had my copper line since 1960. Anytime I ever had trouble Repair Service was there the next day to fix it. It seems they are too busy tyring to convert you to F.O. to care. I want my landline line fixed immediately. My daughter talked to Everett in Repair last night and asked for a Supervisor. Everett said a Supervisor would call in 30 minutes. They never called. Everett was not allowed to give out his Supervisor's name.
There is no way to contact anyone to register a complaint so that this situation might get solved. I wonder if anyone is listening from Verizon Customer Support that might put this Old Lady's Phone back in working order in Alexandria, VA 22306?????????????????
Thank you.

Your issue has been escalated to a Verizon agent. Please go to your profile page for the forum, and look in the middle, right at the top where you will find an area titled "My Support Cases".

If you haven't already, make sure your mom registers for the repair priority service for Seniors. - It is for seniors and/or those who have no other phone besides a landline - so that they can have 24 hour repair services. Simple forms to fill out and mail in at this direct Verizon link (below). My mom is 88 and in the same situation. Hope this helps! http://www22.verizon.com/support/residential/phone/homephone/general+support/request+repair+service/...

In the long term I would look into getting Fiber Optic phone service. I was sent a letter a few months back and was told it was available in my area and was upgraded from copper . There was no additional fee for the upgrade and my monthly bill is about the same. Plus a battery backup system was included for phone service!

Glad it helped! I meant to say it is for Seniors and/or those with Medical issues (temporary or permanent) that don't have access to a phone except a landline and it offers service within a 24-hour period from the reporting time.

Why does the 83 year old need to have a priviate conversation to get this resolved? Why did she have to go to the extreme and post to a public forum in order to get assistance. Seems like we should not have confidence in Verizon services no matter if it's a copper line or FIOS. If customer service can not get a ticket to go thru the system and the techs can not resolve the issue at the location, it seems like there maybe something else going on in the background. You may want to look into and alternate service.

I agree that no one should feel they have to use a public forum to finally have a situation such as the lack of basic, potentially life-saving phone service resolved. The private conversation requested was so that the customer does not post her private identifying information (phone#, account#, etc...) in a public forum.
