First time using the Satellite Phone Store. Far superior to my previous supplier. Will use for all future Sat Phone rentals.

Is there any way I can use the device to send emails? Seems like there is an option for email as well but i don't know how to

Yes and Yes! Over any satellite phone you can connect an Optimizer Router and then use Xgate on your mobile device or laptop to send and receive compressed emails and weather files if your sailing. Also alot of our newer satellite hotspots offer…

it was a pleasure to be serviced by mark…read more he took care of my old iPhone (se2), prescribing a solution and disclosing a competitive price before service began. overall service took about 20 min in and out. i actually came while he was occupied with a client offsite (which is at no point a fault at all), and decided to wait until he got back, and he was professional in handling the compensation. mark is very accommodating, offering me a beverage while i waited, and giving me a ride home since i ubered to the store. we had small talk during the drop off and it is clear that he is an earnest man. i made sure to tip him for the experience, and i am completely satisfied with the experience at pcs connection.

I can't say enough good things about Mark and PCS Connection. Originally, I had my phone battery…read morereplaced there and the service was exceptional from the start. Mark took the time to explain how battery cycles work, what to expect in terms of battery life, and how to properly understand battery health. It was clear he genuinely knew his stuff and cared about making sure I understood the repair--not just getting me in and out the door. Fast forward about four months, and I unexpectedly started experiencing battery degradation. I reached back out to Mark, not really knowing what to expect since I was outside the warranty window. Without hesitation, he offered to replace the battery--no questions asked. That kind of customer service is incredibly hard to find these days. Anyone can provide a service when everything goes right, but standing behind your work and taking care of a customer after the fact is what separates a good business from a great one. Mark earned my trust and my business for the long term. This is exactly how you create lifelong customers. Thank you, Mark, for taking care of me and for providing such outstanding service. I highly recommend PCS Connection!

This location feels like its in the middle of nowhere. I walked in and there was nobody here at…read morenoon on a Monday. I asked the workers if there's always nobody here and they said their biggest rush is about 3 people each day. Which is a pretty sweet deal for them and for anyone who comes here. You'll be seen pretty much right away each time. The staff both helped me out. Sometimes taking turns, sometimes together. Got both of their attention which was nice and made for some light banter between us all. I came in for T-mobile internet. I was pretty set that I wanted it but I came for more information first. They acted a bit prematurely and went to sign me up after explaining the bare minimum with me, which I didn't like at all, and although I was pretty set, I slowed them down and still had them walk through the information with me. Because they were ready to sell me, I knocked them down a star for not listening to me and what I was searching for. Other than that, they answered all of my questions, gave me tips for other T-mobile related products, and shared tech-related issues and ideas about the future which was a cool insight into the field I know nothing about. Parking lot is shared with other businesses. There are sharp turns here and even though it says its a two way parking lot, its really only suitable for one person to go at a time. So in other words, drive defensively.

Worst customer service ever, ordered an iPhone in the store. They informed me I'd revive it on…read more9/25. Wanted to go in to have them cancel the order that hasn't shipped because I won't be home to accept the delivery will be in Europe. The manager did not care at all to cancel my order or assist. I've been to several At&t Do not go to this one! The manager wears glasses. He is a fraud, will promise you a date to secure a contract then doesn't give a care about customer service. I am writing as a 5 year Art customer. I do not recommend specifically this store. I am going to take it to corporate. I looked up what people did in my situation and other stores offered to cancel the order that hasn't been shipped. I'd give negative ratings if I can

I was having difficulty switching from AT&T to Verizon, long story but I just want to say the young…read moreman, Tyler that helped me was wonderful. Very patient and didn't talk to me like I was an idiot. Tyler was patient and understanding of my problem. I cannot say the same for other employees at that store.

// this review is being written, 2 years later so the limitations of my human memory are in this…read morereview. I visited this Verizon store around two years ago, as a customer and amn individual going through a lot of unforeseen circumstances that were outside of my understanding and control. It was a very tough time period-- the logistical barriers/obstacles, my mental health, and the disparity & juxtaposition between how I remember San Diego (as an undergraduate student at UC San Diego, which I suppose is La Jolla) were all disorienting. My phone went missing while I was commuting and "Fine My Device" marked its location that it was around the bus stop close to the San Diego Zoo. Unfortunately, I couldn't retrieve it. Thankfully, I could afford to get another phone through a family member. They ordered one for me and I just stumbled upon this store because it was nearby. There were no issues with the new Samsung Galaxy, at the time of opening the box/casing. It was new, and it served me mostly well until I decided to move away from San Diego. Thank God there was a way to communicate through this very challenging time period. I was cop-ing, sketch-ing, and test-ing my way through landscapes and lifescapes and cityscapes, for the sake of my mental health. This review has almost nothing to do with this store or with Verizon, sorry... but I remember that the employees (Customer Service, I think) at this store were OK. They did not strike me as disrespectful, even though I did not get the impression that they were tech experts or tech-literate. Simply remembering that they were somewhat respectful says a lot, from this time period...
