    terrible customer services and rip off and lied. I went to the store and manager Tara offer me a…read moregood deal specially she ask how much I pay monthly to NT&T, I been with NT&T 25 years and didn't think to change the company but Tara offer 50% less monthly payment, after that I came to get 3 new phones, customer serves was horrible , employee wasn't happy spend time with me and ask if I want come back tomorrow because employee suppose go to party , then I suppose to get Apple watch and I made 3 visits to the store and still didn't get my Apple watch and then the kick me out of the store, I been told I have to leave the store with no reason, my bill came $500 with $200 more that i paid before, no one wants talk to me and help, when I came and saw Tara in the store she hide and didn't come talk to me, so what I get- no customer service, no Apple watch, bill $200 more and no one want talk to me to explain what is going on, manager Tara is lie about the price , dont go there and don't trust ... they just lie and rip off

    Dear Steve B. - Manager Thank you for your response,…read morehowever, if you would have read my review you would have seen I have already contacted Mike S. I left him a voice message and I'm waiting to hear back. 1. I went to this store because they had such high reviews. Unfortunately, my service was DEFINITELY NOT 5 stars. I spoke with Ben about getting a iPhone 15 Pro Max. He didn't have any in stock stock so he ordered one. I waited until the end of the week when he got back in the store and my phone would have already arrived. I called in the morning to make sure the phone came in. He said it had, so I drove the 30 minutes to get it. When I got to the store we started the process and he realized he had the regular 15 not the Pro Max. He called another store to see if they had one and suggested I could there. I wasn't happy with that idea as I had already driven to that store and waited 4 days to get it. He went to get it (which took another 30+ minutes). Once everything was set up, he said I got a FREE screen cover which he put on and a FREE phone case. I didn't need the phone case so he said I could pick out one of the charges instead. I proceeded to pick out the "free" charger and then saw the printed invoice that I asked for. The "free" charger and "free" screen case COST $199.99!! I told him that I didn't want any of them and he said there was still an activation fee. I just received my bill from Verizon and I was charged activation fees. I called Verizon and they said that his fee wasn't any type of activation fee. That this store was not a corporate store and they can charge whatever they want. Buyer beware of the Device Payment Promotion - You are NOT GETTING ANYTHING FREE. They use the term free and don't tell you are actually paying $200!! 2. HOURS LATER, I finally went home with my new iPhone and Apple watch. Once home, all of the sudden my old Samsung watch rings. Apparently, he didn't set up my new Apple watch right! I have to drive another 30 minutes both ways to have him set up my watch again. 3. I gave them my Samsung S21 phone in to get my $800 trade in credit. I look on my Verizon bill and it is not there. They said they never received the phone from the store. I called the store and they said that they wait until they have a load of them before they ship them and that I should wait another month or 2 before it shows up on my bill. 4. I've tried multiple times to call the store to discuss my dissatisfaction and I get no answer and voice mail has not been set up. 5. I found the name/phone number of the District Manager Mike S. at (608) 572-0985 from another review and left him a message. I hope he will be able to resolve my complaints above.

As soon as we walked in and explained our situation, she rolled her eyes and provided no help. Overall a very poor experience.

The reason that they get one star is not because they couldn't fix my phone. It's because all three guys working there seemed more interested in ordering lunch than assisting me. (And I was the only one in there!) Two of them tried to figure out what was wrong and kept on saying that the only way to get my contacts back would be to retrieve my previous phone. When I told them the error message that occurred regarding "TuneWiki" guy 1 asked what that was. Guy 2 went on to take my phone and show guy 1 what it was and telling him about it. (That couldn't happen after I leave?) These guys were horribly unprofessional and I will never be back to that Verizon store. I was able to retrieve my contacts later on. They were in my trash can on Backup Assistant. Even though guy 1 said that he checked there. Attention college students: This Verizon is convenient and right next to campus. But if you want people who actually know what they are talking about, I would go somewhere else. If you want to know what's good at the noodle place around the corner then this might be the Verizon for you.

    A 1.3 star review is not even worth it to this company…read more At&t is the worst service on the planet. They help with absolutely NOTHING !!!! I had one of those flip phones, I took good care of it, I didn't fold it anymore because I seen a crease starting on it so I treated it like a straight phone. It worked good for a couple years like that. Then black screen, blank, nothing. Restart it, it's ok. It did this off and on for a while. Folding the phone is expected to get a crease but I didn't fold it. Blank screen ? It wasn't that old. I paid $150+ for 2 lines. My daughters phone was just a straight phone but the battery kept dying, she charged it, it would die again shortly after. I called At&t costumer service (Multiple times) and told them the problem with my daughters phone, the girl told me that the phone was discontinued. I did not know they were gonna get rid of it. Eventually the phone completely died and is now just a paper weight. When I told the girl about my flip phone she had no answer for me. I even talked to a manager (costumer service employees are useless, they just answer phones). The manager (managers are also useless just there for a paycheck) told me I had NO insurance and they were not gonna fix my phone or do anything for me. He also told me that I'd have to pay out of my own pocket to fix the screen. Paying $150+ for 2 lines and nothing else, I thought that included insurance also. They took the insurance off my service without my permission. One place I found near me said they could take a look at my phone, replace the screen but it would cost me about $500 dollars or more to get it fixed. And for my daughter, I'd have to get her a brand new phone and STILL have to pay on her old dead phone. So I'd have to pay for 2 lines, 3 phones, $500+ and a partridge in a pear tree. AT&T is the company from .... (you know where) If you want to just throw your money away then At&t is the company for you!! I am happy to say that I don't have the stress of deal with people who just want to sit there, answer phone with an accent you can't understand and collect a paycheck that's it. I now have a different company with 3 lines and I'm now paying LESS than $150.

    Unbelievable incompetence. I set up time for a tech upgrade to 5G yet kept receiving their oddly…read morethreatening emails to do so ("just ignore them," I was told - "they are auto-generated"). They cancelled due to the blizzard (understandable). Set up another time (for today) and I confirmed it with a phone call TO THEM on Friday. Here I sit, now told "oh, they're not coming. And if you had the app you would have known that." When I tried to address my overinflated bill with them, they said "You can drop your in-home warranty for $25/month." I've never been so glad to know of other options in my neighborhood. Can't wait to push the "eject" button on AT&T.

Had heard they were better now days but sadly that is not the case. Been here a less than two months with their service and have already had 4 outages, one which lasted around 6 hours. Avoid rental apartments that do not allow any alternative options, especially if you work from home and need to rely on the interent for being able to work. Their customer support like also for some reason seems to go down during outages often as well - during 2 of the 4 outages so far I have not even been able to reach their support line as the line itself seems to go down when they have larger outages. One of the outages I did get a chance to talk to someone, it was a week after the first 2.5 hour outage and I asked what the issue was and if this was normal and they suggested I just use my phone as a hot spot and I said that doesn't really work due to being in an ATT deadzone for speeds and the rep ended up just hanging up on me...never thought I would say I miss Spectrum interent but man their service was was so much more reliable and their support team was always professional. I have also noticed that rain for some reason causes drops in connection briefly and oddities with the speed so be ready for that as well. The speed itself, when working, is solid at 1gig up/down.

    They have gotten better, much better. When I need to call for tech support, I am greeted by…read morecompetence. How refreshing. Good job. Keep up the good work.
