Our first experience with them was two+ years ago when we got our first iPhone. The 5S had just come out and hubby had to wait several hours due to the high demand, but at that time most mobile phone providers had lines around the store. The employees were apologetic, eventually his turn came up and he arrived home with two brand new phones for us. Our most recent experience was a result of me putting my 5S into a hotel toilet and destroying it. Demetri helped us out and we were pleased to discover that once again our rate would drop due to the cost of data going down. He got us in and out of there quickly and with my new phone in hand, smiles once again returned to my face. Hubby hung onto his 5S a bit longer and today we finally upgraded his and worked with Demetri again. Once again the process was painless and Demetri knows his stuff. We love the employees here because they first thing they want to do for us is lower our rate. No bag of tricks, always transparent. US Cellular has great coverage here in Madison and we love our iPhones. See you in two years when it's time to upgrade again.

This is so long but worth reading if you are thinking about taking your device in for repair…read more In my 23 years of living, I have never before left a review on anything. Good or bad. But I downloaded yelp just for this. My pc was having problems on Sunday afternoon, I looked up where to get it fixed and this 'ifixfast' place showed up nearby. So I called and explained my issues and eventually came in to drop it off. I was very clear with the manager that I had opened my pc up, cleaned it thoroughly, unplugged most of the components and reinstalled them. Essentially telling him that I did what I could and was at a loss for how to proceed. The manager told they would begin diagnosing my pc the following day (Monday), toward the afternoon and would be in contact with me via phone call within the next 3-4 days for an update. I say "thank you very much sir" and leave. After a 56 hour work week as a commercial electrician I am looking forward to the weekend and enjoying my break. (It's Friday now) I still have not received a call from this business with any update. I just figured they forgot! Not a big deal, I'll just call them. Worker on the phone tells me it's not ready and he has no update for me. Confused, I respond with "have you guys done any work on it" worker responds with "I do not have that information." I say, "do you have some kind of time frame for when it would be done" worker says "no sir at this time I do not" I say "okay" and hang up. I then decided to come into the store to follow up on just what exactly was being done to my pc. I ask the worker if my pc is even being looked at and the worker said "yes it has" I ask what has been done so far and he said-and I quote "that is a good question" then looked in the back for 3 seconds and essentially told me exactly what I already knew, that the pc turns off right after an attempt to boot up. He tells me they have unplugged some components and plugged them back in. And that that is the extent of the work that's been done. I told the worker that I already knew that information and at this point I say "well considering you guys have had it for an entire week and can't give me any information can I just pick it up today and go try somewhere else?" Worker gets the manager on the phone and comes back to tell me I would still have to pay $75 out the $150 diagnosis fee. You're kidding right? I ask again if I could get some kind of an idea as to when my pc would be fixed I got zero information. I try to level with the guy by saying "so you are telling me you guys could have my pc for months? Sir I need some kind of time frame." And he still gives me nothing. After some back and forth with the worker (who honestly deserved no hard time because I could tell he's a good guy with a scum bag manager). I eventually just settle and pay $75 for them to do absolutely nothing to my property. That sucked and was enough for me to download yelp and warn everyone from doing the same as me.

I wanted to purchase a new iPhone 13 Pro Max one Sunday afternoon. I was paying cash and just…read morewanted to get the phone, regardless of the carrier. Having already stopped at Best Buy and having literally been sent out the door because I wasn't interested in signing a new contract, I wasn't sure where to go next. I had $1,500 in my pocket and I wanted the new iPhone... Boo Best Buy.... Boo you! Anyway, I was driving up the road and saw the Verizon store and thought, "Hey, they have good service coverage". I had Verizon service once upon a time and didn't have any complaints and anything had to be better than what Best Buy had just pulled. I walked into the store and was greeted by who I would later discover was the General Manager, Ava. She was very personable and got me into their service queue. I waited for about 10 mins (they were reasonably busy - so not a long wait at all) and was greeted by an associate named Michael. I explained what I wanted to do and what had happened at Best Buy and he laughed and told me about a perfect solution to my custom situation. Bottom line. I didn't sign a contract. I got the new iPhone 13 Pro Max I wanted (in the desired color and size). I paid for the phone outright with cash. The phone will unlock automatically in 60 days, but I have Verizon prepaid service until I decide which carrier to stick with for the long haul. I purchased a case and a screen protector after examining the display models. I left the store with my new iPhone activated, transferred, protected, and ready to rock inside of 2 hours (I stayed in the store until my data transfer was complete - you could shave 1.5 hours off this time if you did that at home). Michael was extremely knowledgeable, patient, helpful, and courteous throughout my entire experience. The store was quite busy the entire time I was there, but Ava, Michael, and the other staff members always took their time with me and made my time there feel valued and important. I don't know what these other reviews are based on. In my experience this Verizon store offers flagship products and exceptional customer service while still offering excellent deals and reasons to choose them over the competition. I found out after I left that I was actually going to save $300 off my phone bill over the next 12 months if I decide to keep the service. It's in the form of a $25 credit applied to my account every month. Quite the nice little surprise. Just another reason to give them a try! Ask for Michael or Ava, you won't be disappointed. ***By the way: I just read the rest of the reviews for this store and I have to be honest... I didn't see *ANY* signs of laziness, rudeness, or disgruntled customers. To be truthful, I think all of these negative reviews are an angry 10% making 90% of the noise online. For every one bad review on Yelp I'd be willing to bet there are 50 customers who are satisfied but silent. Think about it... don't believe every negative comment you read. Especially when the person posting the review can't spell or properly form sentences. I'm positive the majority of complaints I've read concerning this Verizon Store are a bit.... exaggerated. They helped me get my iPhone 13 Pro Max in an efficient and professional manner. Plus, they only sold me what I told them I wanted. No hardcore sales pitches, no lying, no insults. That's ridiculous. Ok, I'm done ranting. Im just trying to balance the scales a little bit. *** + Here is a summary of how Verizon Sales Associates are paid. + This is straight from CareerTrend.com. Just because they get paid incentive commission doesn't mean you need to go on a witch hunt. It's just to keep everyone motivated. ****************************** ###Base Salary### Verizon typically offers its sales representatives a base salary or hourly wage. The company guarantees this amount regardless of individual performance. The base salary or hourly wage may be the same for all representatives at a certain level. For example, entry-level retail sales representatives in a particular geographic region may earn an hourly wage of $10 regardless of education or experience level. Inside sales representatives may earn an hourly wage of $12 while sales associate positions that require at least a bachelor's degree may offer a base salary of $30,000 per year. ###Commission### Commissions are one of the primary reasons why a sales career has the potential to be lucrative. This is pay that varies with the amount of completed sales and links directly to an individual representative's performance. Verizon pays its sales representatives commissions on confirmed sales. Commissions are usually a percentage of the dollar amount of total sales for a particular period. For example, if a sales representative accumulates $10,000 worth of sales in a month and earns a 10 percent commission, his incentive pay is $1,000. ******************************

The manager as he presented himself later saw the cars pulling up and the customers walking to the door and quickly turned off the lights, at 6:48. He then told the young girl and the other customers that the store was closed as they opened the door. The girl got back in my car and was upset since it wasn't closing time. I got out as the manager was coming out of the store now with the lights on to presumably start his car as there was snow on it. I walked past him into the store and asked home for corporate boost mobiles number. He looked at me evil and I said it's not 7 why can't you help this Little girl. He said who are you anyway. I asked again for corporates number and he got upset when I informed him I was calling to report him and his actions. He starting rattling off a name of John and a district managers name but no phone number. As I walked out of the door he threatened me and I said you heard what I said I am going to call corporate. As I got back in my car he started yelling at me and the young lady in my car. She informed me he always has an attitude when she comes to make her payment. He again threatened me and said he wanted me to get out of my car, I raised my phone and mouthed corporate. It's sad that he feels compelled in a service industry to take it upon himself to close Your Store early costing Your Company increased daily income. Also when a 15 year old girl has to apologize for his actions is unconscionable and bring up if he worked at McDonald's like me and we tried to close early they wouldn't be having it! The Worst Service to a customer and non customer Ever!!

Long story short he somehow switched my account to somebody else's account, and I lost/switched my number to this other person number and I lost my contacts. When I realized what he had done, I raced back where a much friendlier associate named Ben and the female manager (I didn't get her name) promised they would fix the problem.

Being an excellent companion, I agreed to accompany my boyfriend to the US Cellular store bright…read moreand early on a Saturday so that he could upgrade his phone. We arrived well before the doors opened, and there was a line. A long one. Count this as one of the dumbest things I've ever waited in line for. Due to the line and prior horror stories told to me by my gent, I was expecting a one-star experience. It ended up not being nearly as bad as I thought. When you come in, the manager/concierge Patrick takes your name and asks you what brings you in. He adds you to a list on a tablet and encourages you to browse or to take a seat, whichever you prefer. Gratefully the store was well-staffed, so the list moved along fairly quickly. People who were paying their bills or buying accessories were able to get into a separate line at the counter. Our name was finally called, and Robert brought us over to his desk. My boyfriend knew what he wanted, so there wasn't a lot of back and forth. He wanted a popular phone that was reasonably priced. Of course, the store didn't have any in stock. On a Saturday morning. At the end of the month when people can redeem rewards points before they expire. They did, of course, have two phones that were twice the price in stock. Capitalism! I asked if they were able to order the phone and how long that would take. After some clickety-clacking Robert saw they did have it in stock at the warehouse, and they could send it to my boyfriend's apartment. All he'd have to do is call in to activate it. My boyfriend was fine with that, so Robert called in to place the order. He shared with us that there was a 26-minute hold. At this point, we'd been there for about 45 minutes. Not terrible, but still pretty long for what should be an easy switchover process. After waiting (and waiting), my boyfriend asked if they had another brand in stock that was essentially the same phone as the one he wanted. They did. He said he'd take that instead. We then found out we still had to wait for Robert to get through so he could authorize the line transfer. Bummer, but at least the man would leave with a phone. After about forty-five minutes of being on hold, the authorization was made and the phone was set up fairly quickly. My boyfriend asked Robert to transfer the contacts/photos/etc. from his old phone to the new one, but of course none of the transfer machines were working. That'd just be silly! Luckily, Robert knew to just set up a Bluetooth transfer (which I'd have recommended if he hadn't), which took forever but allowed us to be on our way. We finally got out of there, and while it ate up our entire morning, we at least dealt with competent, friendly employees.
