2/14/14; Just to add a note; The guy at this store called my wife's phone today on Valentines day at 9am and 5pm. We were busy enjoying a Valentines day breakfast on the first call and didn't answer, but did answer the 2nd call just prior to dinner. He called to complain about me writing the truth here in Yelp about my experience at their business. When I returned the phone 2 days ago, I told them that when I left their business I would post my experience on Yelp one way or the other (good or bad), so I hoped it would be a good one. It seems odd to me that they did not respond here (rebutt) on Yelp (maybe because they're indefensible), but instead, called to try to get me to retract the facts from Yelp!! Sorry 4G, the truth is the truth, it is what it is. So in addition to their wasting my time, and to add to not returning all my money AND trying to rip me off for $40/month for 2 years for an additonal phone line that I didn't need, NOW they're harrassing us on our personal phone about writing the truth and warning others!!! My response to his call was simple; that I posted the truth (a concept maybe they're not familiar with) then I hung up. I hope for their sake they don't call again, AND BE WARNED HERE, 4G; if you do, I will immediately file a complaint with the better business bureau, the city of Manhattan beach, the Verizon company and FCC for starters because I tried to remain civil in spite of feeling pissed off about being lied to and you trying to rip me off for the third line you said I needed to get a new phone! Your calling my wife's phone was a big mistake, HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You had my phone number but you called her. Don't you EVER think of contacting me again or call my wifes phone, my phone or contact us in any other way. PLEASE just go away. read more

This place is a must go to if you have Verizon. The staff was very helpful and made sure my phone issues got solved. Management even stopped me before I left and made sure I was satisfied with the service. Awesome team they have built at this store. Will be back. read more

Came to the store because my Droid wouldn't turn on. I thought it would be an easy fix but it turned out, the phone was "Fried". When I heard that, I didn't plan to get a new phone until a few weeks but thanks to the helpful employees that are willing to work with people, I was able to get a brand new phone within a few days. Overall, great service. I recommend working with the store manager "Noe". read more

I had the absolute pleasure of upgrading my phone at this location. Tyler and Gabriela made my experience quick and painless by anticipating my needs, and assisting me accordingly. They were both fun, lively, and full of energy! They were an awesome representation of the Verizon brand ! P.s. They have lots of very cute cases read more

Verizon - New Samsung galaxy J3! - Mobile Phones Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Had an awesome experience in this location I agree with the other review this store deserves 5 stars I came in to fix my iPhone my phone has been acting very strange lately so I decided to come in and I was helped out by By the assistant manager he took the time and effort to look for every discount everything he offered and said was true according to my new lower bill he did mention this particular store is under new management and guess what new management is doing great I went to one before and I got scammed but this store is an authorized dealer but is still definitely the real deal I will be coming back to this store with the Assistant manager gave me a great deal and great customer service new management is doing great. read more

I went the store to get a new phone (was time for an upgrade) The store rep. George R. help me narrow down which would fit my lifestyle. He was very straight forward in regards to the fees and prices I'd be paying with surprises (which is rare at these phone stores). I almost payed full price for the phone but George checked if I had any upgrades available and turns out I did! This saved me a headache. Thanks George, I appreciate your helpful, professional and patient attitude with me. read more

Came in last night because I needed to upgrade my phone stat for portrait mode and had the easiest experience ever! Harold went above and beyond to give me superior customer service. He set everything up for me so the process couldn't have been easier! He was very easy to talk to, so the time went by really fast. All I had to do was sit back and relax. I love my new phone & love this Verizon store! read more

Three times I have gone into this store and each time I have come out very pleased with the quality of the service. On Saturday when I went to the store I was informed I would have to follow up on my request today , Monday. I had to call several times today so I have to say initially I was not pleased with how things were being handled. When I was able to connect with the sales representative Noah, whom I was told on Saturday would assist me he took the reins and got everything taken care of to my satisfaction. I will continue to be a Verizon customer and go to this store for my Verizon needs. read more

Caleb and his employees are amazing. Made my phone experience amazing. This is new go to store from now on. Daughter is dew for an upgrade soon and will definitely going back to work with him! read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. This place is beyond shady and employees are lazy and deceptive. If you want to pay cash, they charge you an extra $3 - I don't trust these people with my credit card. It is a third party retailer, but you'd think that Verizon would do something about these kind of places as it's their company being represented. They keep changing owners/management, but bottom line is this place is crap - stay away!! read more

On a Saturday, only one person in the store. Overwhelmed. Curb-side service was non-existent. Could have waited an hour. Went inside. Too way too long. It's a reseller and not a Verizon Wireless store. read more

Service there was amazing! The managers Caleb and tony are fantastic! Went in today to get my whole family new iPhones and they were extremely patient with me cause I do ask tons of questions. Been to this store before and my expletive wasn't nearly as close as this time. This store with the new management is a 10/10! Thank you Caleb and Tony! read more

These guys are the best. My phone died on me and I was in a panic and literally ran over to this store. All of the following calmed me down and helped get my phone working again. Thank you Janice Acevedo, Eder Medina, Tyler Winters, Manny Moses and Noe Benavides. Again........you guys rock! Ron read more

My wife's phone went blank as we were running in Manhattan Beach. We stopped by this store as it was closest and open on Sunday. Having less-than-stellar experiences at some other Verizon locations, I didn't expect much. I was pleasantly surprised. They told us her phone was still under warranty and gave a number to call so the manufacturer could ship her a replacement. While he was taking caring of my wife's phone, the employer (sorry, don't remember his name) asked what happened to my phone. I admitted that I've dropped it on top of some weights and cracked the screen. I said I was waiting until after the New Years to deal with it and that I had insurance. He too a look at the phone and told me that I didn't, in fact, crack the screen... only the glass protector. I didn't believe him, because the screen appeared to be cracked and had a hole in it (as a hollow hole in the middle)! Anyway, he carefully removed the glass protector (which shattered into pieces at that point) and showed a completely unscathed phone underneath. I was so happy! He sold me a new screen protector at a discounted price, installed it and that was it. The moral of the story, kids, is: a) get a real glass screen protector; it saves lives (at least your phone's life); b) employees are nice at this location... frequent it and cherish, because it's not the case for all Verizon stores. Trust me. read more

Go here if you're a sucker. I just wasted two hours of my life here just to find out that it was $300 extra to buy the phone there instead of online. And the guy just kept talking in circles over and over literally trying to confuse you like a used car salesman. Such a disappointment. read more

I have been twice in the last two weeks with problems with my cell phone. I did not buy anything or intend to and they could not have been more helpful. I did not get the first guys name who helped but I left my phone with him to work on while I ran errands and it was waiting for me when I came back. The second time Harold helped me with a new phone that Verizon had sent me. He was courteous and I was confident in his service. I would definitely shop at this store in the future. read more

To start off, the process on purchasing the Google Pixel 3 was extremely fast and easy! Freddy was especially a big help when I was still debating if I should make the purchase. He gave me great details and showed great customer service. I love the product so far and would definitely be back at this location for any future purchases. read more

Verizon - Mobile Phones Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

The slowest place in the world! The staff is super slow - Im waiting for 30 minutes to refill my account!!!! Ubelievable, i stepped out from work during my lunch to put money on my account expected it would take no more then 5 minutes. read more

DO NOT buy a phone here. They sell them for more than retail value. You're better off buying online and then activating yourself. They also trick you into buying other things and they cannot explain what the costs mean. I sat there for an hour with the manager asking for him to break out the costs for me and he couldn't and the story kept changing. He also said he would try to get some credits and call me, and he never did. Such a scam. read more

The staff here are a extremely knowledgeable, and friendly. Their customer service is by far the best I have experienced at any wireless carrier store. The first time I came in for my upgrade I was helped by Elvis. Their server was having issues so he was unable to log into my account. This was something that Verizon direct customer service could not fix. I waited a few days and came back. Harold helped process my upgrade the second time. As everyone knows, phone upgrades are a slow and unexciting process. Not only did Harold help save me money on my monthly bill, he was a genuine human being and made the experience very enjoyable. After I finished the upgrade, I came back 3 days later to buy a case and tempered glass. Elvis and Steve helped me. Yet again, my experience was five star. They were both knowledgeable, helpful, and really great to work with. I would highly recommend this Victra storefront, and will not use any other business so long as I live in the area. Thanks fellas! read more

Poor Customer Service and charged us "secret" $30 fees. They told us it was an activation fee, but it was really their connivence fee and then we were charged another fee by Verizon on our bill. Went to the store to dispute the charge, but were treated horribly by the two employees at the store. After going to a corporate Verizon store and threatening to switch to AT&T we got $30 bucks from Corporate Verizon. Moral of the story, don't go to this place, buy online or go to the Corporate Verizon store on Rosecrans. read more

I had a really bad experience with this store. Bought an iPhone, a rep named Harold helped me. He charged me twice for the order because he didn't complete the transaction the first time. When asked when I would receive the refund, he asked me to call the bank and dispute for a mistake he made and admitted. After talking to the bank, I came back as the store has to process the refund and the manager wasn't present and wouldn't be here for couple of days. Not very helpful reps in the store.. not representing Verizon standards at all. Would give zero rating if can read more

Doesn't matter that they are under new management. This store is run by Victra. As others mentioned, the salespeople employ shady and aggressive sales tactics to get you to pay well above the usual costs to set up a phone. Go to a Verizon corporate store (i.e. 5070 W Rosecrans Ave, Hawthorne, CA 90250) instead and spare yourself the extra charges and aggressive sales b.s.! read more

Every time I call this store (it's the closest location to my home) it is the WORST experience. They always have terrible customer service. Don't shop here!!!!!!!! Every time I call I remember why I end up going to another location and it's because they are so incredibly rude. read more

TOTAL SCAMMERS - DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR BUSINESS Like the other commenters, I was told to upgrade my phone it would be $180 but I'd get a "free" phone case and screen protector. BUT when I said I don't want all that crap then suddenly that $180 went down. So much for "free". Just the tip of the iceberg it seems. read more

Loud music playing while we are trying to talk to them. Clueless morons. Pick a different store.

We went to this Verizon Store to tranfer a 4 lines from other wireless provider, after decide with phones we want with is a not easy job since they have a lot of choices. The manager sent Noe to help us out, we had a very great experience with him. If you need someone to give all attention a loyalty customer need, this is the right person. Unfortunately, the Verizon system (computer system) its to complicate to help associates in to provide a fast servce. We spend almost 2hrs to setting up a account, that require a lot papers print out to sign for it line, than scanner and upload to a Verizon system one by one. Unfortunatly after all the time we put in, and having a bad signal reception where we leave and had to make some calls to costumer service to try to fix the problem, after 2 days we received a call from Technical support Department where they came to conclusion we leave in a "margin" area (black spot) and the best to us to do in this case is return all phones and get the money back. I went back on next day and once again Noe help us but this time to retur the devices was a little faster LOL. In general we had a good customer and technical support service experience. (3 1/2 Star) read more

I was here with my roommate looking for a new phone. The store was extremely busy and there was only one employee. He went above and beyond to help us and help everyone in the store and was extremely accommodating. Harold was seriously amazing. They definitely don't pay him enough for the amount of work he does and he was so patient and accommodating with everyone. read more

Tony was great. 10 stars if I could. Very informative and helping with having product knowledge. My new Verizon store from here on out read more

Fabian was very helpful and friendly. He helped my family and I up for the best package based on our actual usage, not on what they are being pushed to sell. He found a plan that was able to allow us to upgrade my daughter's phone while still staying at our budgeted monthly payments, based on history of our data plan usage. He explained everything in detail, numerous times so everything was clear and upfront. He wanted me to feel comfortable in what I was committing to as far as changing plans. I totally recommend this store and Fabian if you are looking for great customer service. We will come back to this store for all future Verizon Wireless needs. Thank you! read more

10 star service here from Fabian. I had a very messed up situation with my account and he was able to take care of it with patience! Even helped me get a really good deal on my new phone and transferred everything. Have always been a customer of this location but now Fabian is my new rep! read more

Beware!! NOT a direct Verizon store, it's a 3rd party. When you get ripped off, Verizon can't refund/fix ANY money spent. The manager Irving is a SCAMMER!!! He lies about everything!! The cost increase in your monthly bill, non-refundable hidden fees, and has the nerve to look you straight in the eye. Tablet upgrade is NOT FREE (non-refundable start up and go fees, etc.), watches NOT FREE, and FREE PHONE upgrade, just pay TAX...NOT TRUE! You get locked into paying monthly for 2 years. When you "try" to return products, he'll AVOID you...until it's "TOO LATE" POLICIES are NOT same as Verizon. Read ALL fine print BEFORE paying!!!! EX: only 3 days to return phone in original package, $75 fee/tablet upon return, and most hidden fees are NON REFUNDABLE!!!! Please go to a direct Verizon store!!! This store should be closed immediately!!! I'm working on it!!!! read more

I have quite the story to tell about this store if you want to grab a bag of popcorn and take a seat...... It started when I walked in the first time and had my sights set on getting the new iphone. I was sure this is the phone I wanted because every droid I had up until this point was a total piece of shit. SOMEHOW, the african american lady that was helping me out convinced me into going with an LG Revolution 4glte phone which ended up being the biggest mistake of my life. I wasted my upgrade on the worst phone ever made.....a year passes..... I walk into the same store, found out she wasn't working there anymore (go figure...) and got help from the manager, "Noe", and he helped me get a new phone (instead of fixing the LG phone) which I love, BUT at the expense of wasting HOURS of my time in store....there were so many complications in the way he was trying to help me out, so many loopholes he was trying to make to help me out and I really appreciated his efforts.....however my bill came in and all hell broke loose....Noe promised the bill to be X-amount while it was really a larger amount....I had to go sit in their store again and confront him with the bill...i had to sit there and wait for 45 minutes just to get his help finally, then waited another hour so he fixed what was wrong...... He's a great manager, great dude, but holy shit, what a waste of fucking time....and my time is very valuable to me....if my story can save someone out there HOURS UPON HOURS of their time and headaches.....then my job here is done..... my advice: go to a regular verizon store, not a retailer of any kind. do it right the first time, and don't let idiot's stray you from what you KNOW you want haha. read more

Awesome experience. Fabian was great and got me a good deal on a new phone and tablet. So helpful and friendly! Thank you so much!

AVOID this place. Not worth your time or money. Thought I had an ok experience here, then my work offered to pay for my phone and I needed to return my recent purchase. I only had my phone for 3 days when I returned it and I had to pay $70 restocking fee plus a non refundable $19.99 fee for setting my phone up (not activating it, downloading an A wireless app and putting my email into iCloud which I didn't ask for) just to return it within the returnable days. My advice: know your stuff before you go into this location because they will take every opportunity to charge you for something unnecessarily. Also, they added an $11 insurance fee that I had to call and cancel myself, which I didn't ask for, stating it was mandatory...basically upon leaving and speaking with people at actual Verizon stores, I felt like an idiot for going here. Apparently, restocking fees at corporate Verizon stores for the same phone I purchased here are $35 (I went to an actual Verizon store afterward..) not $70 like this location and corporate retailers do not charge you a $19.99 fee for putting your email into iCloud. Also, corporate stores don't add "mandatory" insurance onto your bill. I didn't know how incredibly marked up this 3rd party retailer was, or that it was 3rd party...Soooo.... based on the plethora of unnecessary fees, and shady add ons, I would NOT go back to this place. read more
