Do not come to this store. This store enjoys a good location but as a result couldn't care less about about being managed well. The employees there don't want to be there and seem like they're just working to save up to go to the next big concert. They are not trained properly and won't know how to do anything except opening a line. Customer service is non-existent. Don't be fooled by the five-star reviews which are probably just people opening lines and a robot could probably do. Sort by reviews by new and you'll see. Go to a different location! read more

I am very disappointed with the customer service and products sold here. We added an additional line and received a promotion in which we purchase accessories and would get reimbursed-not a bad deal. They brought out the sun, moon, and stars. We decided to purchase two accessories that were $30 dollars each and we bought a $60 screen protector. After a month the two accessories malfunctioned and they never mentioned that we had to keep the box to return or exchange them and since we thought they were quality products we did not pay attention to the information that was on the receipt. The two young ladies that "helped" us gave us a hard time and bad attitude about the exchange. One of them asked us to demonstrate how we put the products on the dash board like we didn't know how to use the accessories and told us we technically didn't pay for these items. I told her we paid the money upfront and we pay monthly for this service. (my point was nothing is free) She replies with, "but your monthly service works right?". They exchanged one of the products and we had to keep the other malfunctioned one. Overall very disappointed with their rudeness and lack of understanding. I have been with Verizon for a long time and this was the first time a had an issue and that's how we are treated. read more

If you want to get the best Verizon experience, do not go to a retailer. Go to the corporate Verizon offices. And DO NOT work with Michelle at this location. She is a hoax and full of greed. My family and I are ATT customers who were trying to switch to Verizon. Firstly the lady working there, her name is Michelle, tried to hoax my family into the plan by undergoing a series of number changes and ports so that she could get credit and bonuses for herself. Thankfully, I was dealing with the corporate offices of Verizon in Santa Monica when this happened. My parents are in Alhambra and I live in Santa Monica. So naturally I went to the Santa Monica one to get my SIM card and switch services. When they talked to Michelle, she did not want to collaborate. Instead, she greedily wanted to take all the credit for opening up a new family plan, instead of collaborating with the Santa Monica offices, where I was located in. Verizon Corporation shouldn't let people like this run business, my family and I spent a total of 18 hours in 2-3 days trying to get Verizon. But Michelle wouldn't budge because she was so greedy and sketchy. While the Santa Monica offices were trying to collaborate so I can also get my phone running, she refused to cooperate. The associate at Santa Monica talked to his boss and we all called the Alhambra retailer. First, Michelle refused to talk to the Santa Monica Office, and when we asked to speak to the supervisor, the supervisor hung up! How sketchy is that? Switching to another service takes work, but Verizon shouldn't let this become such an unpleasant experience for their customers by having greedy associates working for their own commission and refusing to collaborate with Verizon Corporate. This is unacceptable by all means in customer service. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE going to this retailer. Especially this lady Michelle who has caused pain and lots of money to my poor parents and brother. That is downright UNETHICAL! I repeat. Do not come here. read more

Scammers. Flat out lied to us. Told us hat they were waiving the bundle. told us that we were being charged the difference in the cell phone cost. But ended up double Charging us. You cannot trust ANYTHING this store says. And they are ran by the same people who run the other non-corporate stores in the area. So you can't shop at any of them. I'm reporting this whole thing directly to Verizon corporate and all the local news outlets and all my social media outlets. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. When you read bad reviews online, believe them. I read some of the reviews and wanted to challenge my luck, hoping to get an agent to help set up my account correctly. At the time of setting up the account I felt rushed, a lot of hard sales going on. But I looked the other way just cause I really needed to change my phone plan right away. Fast forward a little time, now it's been 3 months after I set up the account, I received no paper bills, no electronic bills. The reason? The rep who helped me put down the WRONG email address, and FORGOT to send me paper bills. So Verizon is hunting me down for missed payments, and i have to make blinded payments without verifying ANY charges. So do your self a favor, read through all the reviews on yelp, there's a reason this place is getting 2 starts based on 90 some reviews. Over all horrendous experience coming here, a lot of issues still not resolved after 3 months, fingers crossed I can at least see a bill by the end of next week. read more

I recently tried to resolve a complaint about being over charged on my monthly bills. I was told by Devin Chou and James Shin that I would only be charged 75 dollars a month for an iPhone 6 but my monthly bills were being charged at 94 dollars a month. They admitted that they gave out the wrong price but insisted that there was nothing they could do to reverse the new monthly charges. I eventually had to terminate the contract and pay the full retail price of the phone. Customers, if you have had the same problems, then write a formal complaint to The Better Business Bureau. Write your complaint to sound as professional as possible versus sounding like a rant. Within a week, a Verizon executive relations coordinator will contact you and you can begin to resolve your complaint. After contacting The Better Business Bureau and speaking with a Verizon executive relations coordinator, I was able to get back my money back. read more

I was helped by Teresa here. She was very knowledgeable about every product I asked about and every promotional offer that was available without having to ever having to check. She helped me with my phone upgrade and overall I was very satisfied with the assistance and customer support. I was also amazed at how quick and professionally she installed my tempered glass on my phone without any air bubbles on it at all. Thanks Teresa! read more

I went to the Verizon store in Alhambra on Main St to change my carrier do to high prices and slow internet (AT&T) Kevin assisted me and was SUPER FAST, FUN AND FRIENDLY. He explained everything to me and broke everything down. I had went to T Mobile to see what they had to offer which was not bad and just only $10 cheaper but after researching between the two, Verizon was the best over all, especially being helped by Kevin himself. I appreciate his service and hospitality. Made me feel welcome and he also made the switch very easy even up to calling AT&T to unlock my phone and waited for my confirmation email etc. THANK YOU KEVIN and Verizon. read more

The absolutely worst customer service I have ever experienced. After sweet talking us into tha new program and selling us three phones they were incapable of doing the most simple tasks after the fact. The woman who appeared to be the manager, I believe her name was Claudia, was the most thoughtless and rude individual I have ever met. When we came back later asking for help, you know customer support, she basically just blew us off. She handed us a Post-it with the phone number of Verizon's technical support on it and told us to call them. We are deciding at this point what kind of legal action we will be taking in order to rectify the situation. If you are looking for an upgrade and new phone don't come here. Go to Best Buy instead. At least their technicians are capable of setting up your phone while you are at their store. I wish Yelp offered the ability to give negitive stars, but in this case I would need a ton of them. read more

They wont give you discounts like other Verizon stores does. Plus if you have an appointment with them, expect not to be seen. Its a first come first serve basis! Expect to wait for over an hour or MORE! There will only be 2 people working in that store. Last but not the least! MANAGER NEEDS TO LEARN BASIC ETIQUETTE! read more

Joseph was very helpful. Walked me through my new flip phone and explained to me how to use view my voicemails and messages. Very patient!

Best Customer Service! What do you look for when you walk into a business? Friendly, personable, helpful, honest and is willing to go above and beyond when you need help? Well that's exactly what I found the first time I came into this store. Alvin has been so helpful and patient with me, that I cannot be more thankful that he's employed at this store. I bought the new Google Pixel here in Feb 2017. Love the phone, however, my own stupidity caused me to have the joy of visiting Alvin yesterday. I ruined my phone, felt in panic and disbelief that I was about to have to reinvest in a new phone. Throughout my stressful time, Alvin kept a calm and reassuring temperament, going above and beyond to problem solve for me. At the end, I got a new phone replacement, new insurance on the phone and a deep appreciation for amazing customer service. Thank you again Alvin!! read more

I've been using yelp since 2012 and never felt the need to leave reviews until I visited the Verizon Wireless store in Alhambra, CA. Keep in mind this store is what they call a premium wireless retailer. Some services are limited compared to official locations. That being said, I've been with verizon for several years now but never had a great in-store experience. Thats not until I met James, the store manager on Thursday January 8th. The service he provided was outstanding!! James made sure I was getting the best deal and went out of his way to fix any problems I had with my account. read more

Joseph Hong was wonderful helping us switch from our previous carrier to Verizon. Great service, knowledge and expertise in helping us with new phones, iPhone XS. Excellent customer service! read more

Came into the store there were 4 representatives & 6 customers total including myself. Waited 10min to be addressed, the male representative decided I needed a new SIM card, was told have a seat & it would be about 5min. Waited another 12min until I was seen again. Male representative passed me onto a female rep. She first tries to up sell me into buying more data. Politely refused the offer saying all I needed was a new SIM. Additional 10min wait before she tells me it's going to cost $25 to get a new SIM. I informed her that Verizon Help said on the phone I could get a new SIM free in-store. She said they're a "premium" retailer and this and that so $25 fee.. I declined the fee and took my business elsewhere, more on principle for not being up front. I understand that she was just following protocol but couldn't the male representative who diagnosed the issue warned me about the fee prior to me waiting an additional 20+min?? In total I wasted almost an hr going there. Not worth your time for service help if they can't be up front about things in my honest opinion. read more

Pretty worthless store if you're looking at phones. How do you not have any demos? You only have toy phones! Plastic phones that look like the phones you want. You expect me to buy or upgrade a phone without using it first? How would you like to buy a car without driving it first? You can play with the toy model though! How would you like it if you couldn't try on any clothes when shopping? You can see how it looks on he mannequin though! The sales associate was pretty clueless too. I was asking to compare two models of phones from the same brand. She tells me one is essentially a little bigger in size. So you are telling me there is a $100 difference in price and there is only a size difference? $100 may not seem a lot, but in terms of cell phone prices that is huge especially when the max price of a phone is usually around $200. read more

Although this store appeared to be helpful, the Verizon rep named Dean failed to follow my instructions carefully. I asked for a prepaid account and he provided me with a recurring account. He was so quick to open an account. read more

Jackie Garcia was the very best service I've ever had. Patient ,kind and very sweet. Understood everything I wanted an needed. Thank you

Manager was pretty forceful today when I walked in to look around, told me hey buddy come here, let's just pull your credit to see what you are qualify for? I'm like no I already had Att, he goes yes so let's pull your credit see if we can switch you over! You must be desperate man, cause a Verizon cooperate store will never do that! read more

I was so happy with my service from Joshua the Verizon guy. He is patient, even if he knows what the best choice will be he will wait untill you see the same thing as well. He gets me all the deals . Even if I pay more up front I know I'm getting the best deal possible with Joshua. read more

Like others, zero stars if possible. My girlfriend and I were in this store for 4 hours last night, trying to upgrade two lines on her existing account and to transfer my account from T-Mobile. Aryana was the representative who helped us and promised my girlfriend that she could help her with getting two new iPhone 6s and two new tablets while increasing her monthly bill by only $10-$15. Sound too good to be true? YUP. She and the district manager, Joe Wang, completely rearranged her account and didn't disclose any fees or what was being done. However, their system "Euros" went down during part of the transaction so we didn't get receipts or print-outs of some of the documents. They reassured us that everything would be fine and to visit the store today and everything will be squared away. Today, we found that her monthly bill increased by $100, they actually OVERCHARGED for the iPhones by $10 more than what Apple or Verizon Corporate would charge, and sold us equipment that wasn't even processed/activated - which is against company policy - and were marketed WAY above MSRP. They also messed with a line that we SPECIFICALLY and REPEATEDLY said not to make any changes to but they did. Aryana and Joe completely screwed us over. The poor guy Devin who helped us heard an earful but told us he couldn't help us revert back to before we stepped into this gawd-forsaken store. We called Verizon Customer Service while in the store and they told us to go to a corporate store and to return everything and cancel all orders. We visited the corporate store in Pasadena and was told they couldn't assist because an "indirect" store sold us the equipment and made the changes. We drove BACK to 4G Wireless and another employee tried to tell us they couldn't help and we had to go to corporate. I shut him down and told him we already went and they can't assist because an "indirect" store screwed everything up. So these employees returned all our equipment and after a 45-minute phone call to Verizon Customer Service (with me doing most of the talking and not the 4G sales representative), we got confirmation that the plan would be reverted back to its original state prior to visiting 4G Wireless. Great, right? Well, then 4G Wireless was saying they could only refund us $290 - nearly $80 less than what was paid upfront the night before. They tried to convince us there was nothing that could be done but after asking them to call Joe to come down to the store and pay us back the $80 out of his own pocket because he lied, misrepresented services, and acted without consent, they suddenly were able to refund everything with a press of a button. Do not come here. The district manager, Joe Wang, will lie and do what he can to make the sale but you'll end up paying for it. While we were there for 4 hours last night and nearly 5 hours today, we saw the same people who were helped by him yesterday come in today completely irate and annoyed and requesting refunds. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. read more

I actually went to a Verizon corp store, where it took 45 min to get help and then had a pushy salesperson being too agressive for the sale. I disagree w the person that wrote a review. I went to this 4G Verizon store after i broke my phone and didn't have an upgrade available. The manager there, Johnny, was very helpful and patient. Not only was he able to push my upgrade date, I got a GREAT deal on my new smartphone. I will mos def go back and recommend that friends go there too. It would be better if you already have an idea of what you need then what you want. read more

We love Verizon but our local Verizon store has really bad physical customer service. So when we stumbled into this Verizon while killing time in Alhambra we were pleasantly surprised by the excellent customer service. Our intention was to just look at phone and when Joshua accompanied us (not in an overbearing kind of way) he began to tell us about their Black Friday promotions. We ended up upgrading our phones and taking advantage of the deals. Joshua was an awesome CS representative and made our experience very pleasant. If we can, we'll definitely be coming here for our physical Verizon needs. read more

Best service ever thank you Roberto got the best deal on my cellphones. Wish u and all Verizon customer like you a wonderful Merry Christmas. read more

Teresa was great! She gave me and my husband great customer service, she answered all of our questions so professionally, she took care of us. She even guided me over the phone to help me recover my information because I left my phone backing up at the store. I thought I was going to be struggling but the process was super easy with her. Thank you Teresa! You're awesome, I'm very satisfied. read more

The sales guy straight up lied to me when I asked if it was a contract plan. He said no, but lo and behold my account has contract days??? And he also decided to randomly charge me $50 for 2 headsets that I didn't even ask for... Not cool. Beware and stand your ground! He was Asian and young, I forgot his name I think it was Leon or something like that. It's ridiculous that he lied to me and now I have to pay early termination fees. Y'all been warned read more

I bought my new Samsung S10+ about 3 weeks ago. Then my phone was stolen on Thursday night. However, Kevin whom sold me my phone helped on Friday evening by explaining all the security features and how to work them. I pinged my phone, sent a message and the person whom had my phone called me and returned my phone that evening. Kevin helped me out and did so very professionally and I can't thank him enough. Thank you Kevin! read more

Worst experience ever, order an galaxy S5 here, they said it will be 2 to 3 business days till phone get to the store. Call 3 times and they said no phone have came to store yet, give name and account. They said they will call me back after checking the account, never did. So I stop by store, the phone got ship to walnut, wait another day. Came back next day and some how sales rep that did my plan is not here so I have to wait two hours to get a hold on her and get everything clear up. read more

Really bad service. I went in on a Friday after a rep told my son that I can exchange my new phone for a different color any time. A lady by the name of Claudia helped us. I explained that I wanted to exchange the phone and at that moment is when her tone changed. Her responses were very unappealing. She said, "I don't even think we have it. Let me check." As she checked, I noticed she was texting someone on her cell phone and smiling. How unprofessional is that?! She continued and finally said, "I don't have it but I can have it for you by tomorrow at 3pm." I was already furious with the awful service we were receiving that I just said ok and left. The next day, I had my son call to check if the phone had arrived. Sure enough, he was told that the phone was not there but it would be on Tuesday August 12th. Are you kidding me?! I would just go directly to an actual Verizon Store. I'm paying way too much to have to deal with people who obviously don't know how to provide good customer service. read more

David was such a sweetheart. I came in with a T-Mobile t-shirt on and I left butt ass naked because I refuse to wear that garbage any longer. He switched me over to an unlimited plan, and while I might not be able to afford my kids anymore I can certainly call them whenever child services has them removed from my home, because I will be on Americas largest and most reliable network. Can you hear me now? Yes Jesus, I can. Thank you David. 10/10 would overpay for amazing wireless service again. read more

No greeting when walk into this empty store on Saturday afternoon. Customer service rep seats behind the counter appears no interest to serve or answer my question. When ask question for trade in. He replies: did you bought the phone from us? If not, we can't help you. Yes, I understand I can do it online but thought it's the same process to do it in store. He replies back to me again: I can't help you if you didn't buy from us.... read more

I went in on a Thursday afternoon and wanted to upgrade to an iPhone X. There was 2 salesman and each of them were busy with someone, and there was another client waiting. So I left to grab a bite to eat, came back about 30 minutes later, and now there was one salesman and he was helping another client. So I sat down and he started asking me what I wanted to do and what not, so I tell him and we're exchanging all this info over the heads of the clients he's currently "helping". It continues like this for over an hour until finally he finds the phone I need at another store. Now from my understanding there were two options for me, I either buy my old phone and keep it, or I trade it in for the new phone and turn it in within 14 days. I confirmed this with the salesman Paul multiple times. Towards the middle of the process he mentions he can get me a screen protector and a case for my patience, which I thought was cool. I finally sign for my new phone, almost 2 hours in, and I still have to pick it up in San Marino. I was tired of waiting at this point and leave to go pick up my phone. When I get there I mention to the SM salesman that Paul said something about a case. He told me I have to go back to that store to get the case and I should try again tomorrow. I come back today, (this all happened last night) and Paul is there telling me that in order to get a case and screen protector, I needed to participate in the "trade in program". A completely separate program he never made clear last night, and when I told him my understanding of my two options the prior night, he shook his head with no emotion. I asked for more clarification of this "trade in program" and he gave me short "Yeah" or "No" answers with no emotion again. Moral of the story, don't go here. Shady salesman that only care about the sale, they could care less about the customer. Go to the Verizon store in Pasadena like everyone else mentions. read more

Highly recommend Teresa ! Awesome customer service she's super friendly and knowledgeable,explained all my concern on upgrading my phone.

Shoppers beware of this place! Walked in and asked if they had the iPhone X in stock (this was for me). I was told no by the first associate. So I then I talked to another associate because I was really there to upgrade my parent's iPhones because they had a BOGO for iPhone 8's and said I would have upgraded mine too if they had iPhone X's in stock, and was told yes they do?!? So we go back and fourth and finally decided to upgrade all 4 of the lines I have with Verizon, 2 x iPhone 8 and 2 x iPhone X. As everything was getting processed, we were told that we would be getting "FREE ITEMS" with our upgrades, SCORE!! (or so I thought). We were ask to pick out cases. They picked out the screen protectors, Verizon Qi charging stands, a set of BT headphones and a (WAY OVER PRICED) lightning cable that we did not need. When walking around the store, no accessories have a price tag on them, you won't know how much you are paying for something unless you ask for the price or look on your bill. After everything was said and done, we were told all we are responsible for was paying the tax on the phones (2 certains in life.. Death and Taxes). Was given the 14 day return policy + Restocking fee disclaimer. Sign on electronic keypad and out the door. After looking at the receipt, I realized, the "FREE" stuff was actually paid for by the credits from our traded in phones?!?!?! (can you say false promises?) We were told that they can't credit toward the phones/account since it was under the "Monthly Payment" plan. By this time, I was tired, hungry and didn't want to deal with it right then and there. Went home, ate, realized we only got credit for 3 out of the 4 phones. Went back and was told they knew about it and were on the phone with Verizon to get the credit put on our bill for the 4th phone (what happened to "we can't credit toward the phones/account?"). Later that evening, I looked at the bill even more and see we were charged for something called "Redux Multi-Device Memberships" and "VIP Annual Memberships?" We were never even told about these memberships and what benefits they come with. In checking out www.victra.com, I found out "Redux" is a service they offer to "Save your wet device" with some sort of machine and their VIP Membership offers 10% discounts on accessories and other "money saving" benefits. 1) The iPhones we purchased are water resistant, why do we need the Redux service? Out of all the years I have ever owned a mobile device, I have yet to get any wet to the point where I need a drying service. Went back next day and was told it was part of a "Bundle Deal". I eventually got a refund 2) If I was a "VIP Member" and eligible for 10% of ALL accessories, how come I was charged full price for things that were said to be "FREE"? Went back next day and was told the accessories were part of a "Bundle Deal." What a great Deal! I got a whole $10.01 OFF for over $435 worth of accessories. (cases, screen protectors, 3) Asked the manager if it was true that we couldn't apply the trade in phone values to our bill, how come they were able to do it with the 4th? Manager said she doesn't know what happened, but they are able to send in the phones and credit the accounts. In the end, we were charged for over $555 worth of accessories and memberships that could have been applied toward our account to offset the over $4000 in phones we just bought. We was able to get about $120 back for the memberships that I was never told about nor agreed to sign up for. If you do plan to shop here, eat a hearty meal first, get a print out of the sales invoice and check that you are only charged for things you that agreed to before signing/paying. read more

Here's another 1 star for this place. I came into this store to buy the new iPhone xs max. I knew Verizon had a deal of getting free XR for opening a new line. It sounded like a great deal. My sister was in need of another line and she would like the phone for herself. Verizon phones are known to be unlocked and the salesman (Kevin) said it would work for any carrier. He said a new line would only add an additional $10 to the entire bill. Then, there is the "Hey, we have to charge you for the set up fee and taxes of the phone, so we offer you a free case and screen protector to justify for the cost." It sounded sketchy, cause what's free? Ever? He led us to pick a case and proceeded to install it on the phone. About an hour after, we got everything... I was charged about $400 ish. I didn't look at my receipt until I got home because my sister had to leave for work right away. I logged in to my Verizon account and found out that he changed my plan too. I was grandfathered in an old plan and he updated my plan to the newest one. I was able to view my estimated next bill which was double the cost. On the receipt, it was Victra - NOT VERIZON! It said "VERIZON" outside the store and it was not known to me that this was an authorized retailer until I got my receipt. After reading other Yelp reviews, I guess they don't have to disclose that info to you. My brother in law and I went back trying to return the XR the same day. The sim card did not work for the XR as promised. There was one lady working and said they cannot process the return. Only the manager can do it and she'll be in the next day from 12-3. My sister went back the next day at the time specified. The manager is not in but traveling internationally. They said she will be back Thursday. I feel like they were trying to prolong the process to bill for terminating phone lines early, restocking fees, etc... I live chat with Verizon online and they said I can walk in any store to do the return. I went to a different store in Irvine. They fixed everything that this guy jacked up with the exception of getting me back on my old plan. I had to call corporate to fix it. This was a complete waste of time and money. I do not recommend this place. For future phones, I'm never walking in a store to deal with idiots. Order online or directly from Apple. read more

My uncle went to this place because it shows Verizon. He wanted to ask them how to use his old phone. But the promoter cheated my uncle to buy their over $500 productions. He is almost 90 years old, even doesn't know how to use iPhone, they still promoted iPad, iPhone and hum to him. People go there should be careful, they offer services just for promoting their productions. read more

I was helped by TERESA here, she did an amazing job taking care of us during our port in switch, I got a good deal and got all of our information transferred to our new devices. She's very patient but gets the job done quick. Highly recommend her if you're looking to get helped here. read more

After purchasing a phone and case three weeks ago, the case has yet to arrive. I've called 7 times since and while acknowleging I bought the case, no one in the store has been able to give me an answer or confirmation it is being sent. Each representative has said they would look into it and not called back or followed up. Often they would just hang up. Undoubtedly worst customer service and have failed to deliver a product I paid for. While in the store the rep just tried to up sell me and was going to overcharge for a phone until I showed him a lower price on Verizon's website. Continued to cost more with fees and phone case I have yet to receive. I would not recommend this store to anyone even if you need the phone that day; it would let be cheaper and safer to order online through Verizon or amazon and rush ship it. I will need to go into the store to stop the order and get a refund read more
