This is the best experience I have had in any of the Verizon stores on the peninsula, hands down. Ethan and all of the other employees who helped us through a long process that involved changing 2 phones was extremely pleasant. I highly recommend going out of your way to go to this specific Verizon store. read more

Want to think Chad, helping our elderly friend get a new phone. He was beyond patient. Explain everything to him how to remove apps that you don't need we could not be happier. That Chad, it was the salesperson. read more

My experience began with a disappointing call to Verizon's phone customer support, which unfortunately didn't resolve my issue and still required an in store visit. This five star review is specifically for Jullian at the Verizon store in Milbrae. While there was one other employee present, Jullian was clearly the one running the store, handling about six customers waiting back to back and doing so with calm, professionalism, and focus. Even though my transfer PIN request required a corporate office, he went above and beyond trying to find a workaround rather than simply turning me away. His multitasking, critical thinking, and customer service were outstanding. Jullian represents the level of service that defines a great store experience and sets the standard ALL Verizon stores should aim for. read more

First of all, the ratings are very funny. All 1's and 5's. The only 2025 review was removed and was a rant against Verizon in general and not about the store itself. First of all, setting up and switching cell phones takes a lot of time (including moving data over to the new phone) - not by their choice, but by the corporate process. They like it less than you do, be assured. Secondly, if you've ever worked with the general public (GP), store workers really accumulate a lot of the anxiety of impatient people day after day. I offer this as a generic observation and defense. That being said, my wife and I waited about 20 minutes for our turn for Julian to help us. He was polite, relaxed, professional and capable. He asked a few questions to guide us to the product that would best fit our needs. Not only did my wife end up with the phone that best suited her, I ended up getting a free upgrade phone as well. I can appreciate the cell phone store dread - we've been putting this visit off for almost a year. Very happy that we made the trip. Thank you, Julian, for taking very good care of us. We'll be back! read more

Senior citizen being forced to CHANGE phone because Apple doesn't want to support iPhone 11. I purchased a new iPhone and needed my carrier to transfer existing information from one phone to the new iPhone. Melvin at the Millbrae Verizon outlet offered to help me. Even though chronologically we are decades apart in age, Melvin conversed with me about upcoming Mother's Day plans to what kind of case I wanted for the new phone (unfortunately this store was out of stock in the style that I wanted. What I found engaging about Melvin was that he didn't have to make any effort to talk, we could have both sat there in deafening silence while "things uploaded". Instead he made it enjoyable and therefore I will not only return to this store if I need assistance but also recommend this Verizon store to all of my friends. read more

I went to the Verizon store to switch my plan from an old one to the new Welcome Plan. I spent over an hour with a customer service representative, carefully confirming the change for each line and even requesting a physical printout of the changes made to my account. Despite this, to my shock and frustration, when I received my next bill, only half of my lines had been switched to the new plan, while the other half remained on the old plan. When I called the store, another representative incorrectly told me that switching the remaining lines would cause me to lose my iPhone promo credit. I decided to contact Verizon customer service directly, and the representative I spoke with resolved the issue by updating the remaining lines to the new plan while keeping the promo credit intact. I never thought I'd say this, but if you're planning to switch from a grandfathered plan to the Welcome Plan, you're better off calling Verizon customer service than visiting the Millbrae store. read more

I wish I could give 0. There is one nice young gentleman working here, but otherwise it is so bad it is shocking, the customer service, the store itself, everything. Awful manager. Just an awful awful terrible place. read more

I typically avoid going to Verizon stores because in the past, I feel like I'm going to get overwhelmed with a sales pitch or I'm going to be completely ignored. Thankfully, this is not the case here. As soon as I walked in, I was acknowledged and very quickly had someone help me. (I was looking to update my phone plan, consolidate my wife's plan, and potentially upgrade my phone.) Michael, the associate who helped us, answered all of my questions patiently, never pushed us to do anything, and was very professional. I had to come back on a subsequent day to follow up and again, they did a great job acknowledging me as soon as I came in and helping me out. Even though Michael was working with a customer, the other associates did a great job of letting me know what was going on and checking on my status. These guys do a very good job. read more

Worst customer service ever. I go in to return my home internet device as I canceled my service. The guy tells me he is alone and he can't help me right now and to come back in 30 minutes. I go back in 30 minutes and he tells me he can't take the device from me because I didn't purchase it from this store. So I leave the store and I call Verizon on my way home and I'm told that I can take the device to any nearby Verizon store. read more

DeJan Roberson helped us during our trade up for two Apple iPhones. He was a great help in choice, color, and service for our mobile phones. Dejan was very courteous, professional, and totally knew the product brand forward and backwards. He also help us transfer all our information onto the new mobile phones seamlessly. If you have a management position you better give it to him fast. He's a gem and worthy for any advancement in your organization. Thank you, Dejan! Dan and Yvonne Hampton read more

Robert, at Millbrae Verizon, was very professional, solved problems, and was a very supportive person with whom it was very easy to work! Thank you, Verizon. Thank you, Robert. Kathie read more

This Verizon is the best in the Bay Area. The manager Marlena is so quick and knowledgable. I bought a new phone off of her and she was so patient in transferring my 10k photo storage (lol). She has always helped my family when it came to their phones as well so I'll always stick with her. I can always count on her to fix my problems. read more

We had just gotten in from overseas and our SIM cards were not working properly. David and Kristopher were very helpful considering we came in right before closing time. They were able to fix 1 of our 2 phones, and didn't charge us for the new SIM card! read more

tl;dr violent employee thinks he speaks Spanish and confuses vamonos with insults and tries to start a fight Went into the store because my parents needed a prepaid sim card since they are visiting from abroad. We have never had issues with this in the past. Most likely a 30 min transaction tops. We went into this store thinking it was a Verizon Corporate Store and thinking everything was going to smooth. Little did we know My parents spent 2 hours with the sales representative only to end up with 1 of the prepaid lines and one fully erased phone with the excuse of "the phone is too old" I asked the sales rep for an explanation since my parents where truly concerned about my moms phone being wiped out and having spent 2 hours on Sunday. I asked both of them to leave since we had to come back again during the week in Spanish and then the sales rep got really violent and started saying he knew how to talk Spanish and knew what I said. Regardless, we left on our own account peacefully. read more

I purchased a defective $50 screen protector. It chipped and cracked in less than 24 hours while safely in my purse. I attempted to return this faulty product and was told repeatedly that it is not returnable because it has a lifetime warranty. I tried to explain that do not want this product for a lifetime. I do not want it on my phone again. The sales person was professional. At the same time completely unwilling to budge on this policy. It went straight into the garbage. read more

Should never go in to this store in the 1st place ! Like the other reviews mention, a bunch of liars & Big Attitude unprofessional pigs that works there ! If I know ahead of of time is actually a cellular store that is hanging a Verizon sign . Not actually a Verizon cooperate store ! Would never step in . Also should of know why this store is always empty compare to other Verizon store ! In January 2020 I bought & spend over $1000 for a IPhone Pro Max with a trade in with Greg Nunes (wireless account district manager). The phone was OK but he upsell me a $50 screen protector that he promised any scratch or chip or damage will be replace for a life time ! No expire ! And the actual store manager Marlena was so nice & sweet to install it on for me on my new IPhone Max pro ! If it wasn't confirm that it wa ms replace for a ever, I can just buy a $10 or less one on E-Bay or Amazon ! After 1 tiny fall the screen protector chipped & scratched badly ! So I went in to the store on Broadway, Millbrae where I bought the Phone from Greg ! The manager Marlena give me a attitude saying there is nothing I can do for you ! The only thing I can do is you can buy a new one with a 20% discount ! WTF ! The only reason I buy this expense protector is because you (Greg) said It was a life time replacement! Why you lie ! As I went in yesterday 6-2-2020 to seek justice , trying to reason with the attitude Bi Marlena . Instead of give me satisfying customer service, you have to leave the store now or do you want me mr to call the police ?! WTF ! This this how they treat a loyal customer that has bought over 10 cell phones from them from other Offical Verizon Stores ! Never will step into this Scam Artist Always Syire ever every again ! Like the other 6 reviews has mention ! STAY AWAY !!! read more

Verizon - The screen protector that was bought over $50 and suppose to be replace for a life time ! - Mobile Phones Near Me - Millbrae, California

This is a huge, spacious store and every single time my husband and I pass by, we're mystified by how they manage to keep their lease because it never seems like anyone is in there. Though when we recently went a few days ago to inquire about coverage (we've had Verizon but thought of switching to either AT T or T Mobile), because here we are living in the thick of Silicon Valley, but get the shittiest coverage. But anyway, this place is super convenient and parking is a breeze because it's in front of a larger shopping area which has Trader Joes and Safeway, so there's tons of parking for this strip mall type place. When we walked in, the line was almost non existent, which is the great part, and the folks were super helpful in answering my husband's questions. The interior is spartan, super clean, and no joke: the floor is clean enough to eat off, definitely cleaner than my kitchen, and so shiny it freakin gleans. Is this a trick? not sure how they manage it. It's an off marketing strategy, though it might be inadvertent, because it kinda did beckon us to go inside. Very friendly and helpful people, though you might have to ask to speak to the manager (as we did because the first guy didn't really seem to know what to do with us). read more

If it's one thing I strive on is customer service and these two gentlemen provided excellent customer. Askia & Dejan were very helpful and very informative they knew exactly what to look for. I definitely recommend this location, they made the transition on upgrading my watch & phone fun and exciting. read more

This is not an actual Verizon store. It definitely looks like it as other reviews have pointed out. I waited almost 2 hours just to set up the phone and transfer data, which I could've have easily done at home, but I had to wait until the agent helped the other customer while it was being transferred. They also charged me a hidden nonrefundable Device Set Up (pretty much the labor), which any one can easily do. Be wary of this store! If there is a promotion on the Verizon website, go through them as they will not charge you any hidden fees! Do not got to this store for the promotions, or they'll charge you that hidden fee! read more

My daughter is disabled and uses a communication device, which pairs with her phone, to connect with the world. When the company that makes her device fell behind the latest phone upgrades with their software, she was cut off and became extremely frustrated. I took her in to Verizon in Millbrae Square and between Anson, Kristopher, and Manuel, three separate visits and many phone calls to the device manufacturer, my daughter has now been restored to full communication. The Verizon team showed patience, kindness and knowledge. I would go back any time. read more

I went to this store for line transfer this afternoon. The male staff was so unhappy to see me. I felt not welcomed when I walk in. The reason I came to this store because I I saw good reviews on google map. But apparently that's not the truth. read more

Horrible service! I walk in with some questions about getting a phone and the guy was very rude told he didn't know. He told me to call Verizon because he did know. read more

How this place gets so many positive review is a mystery, it is a total rip off. It is NOT a Verizon store, just an "authorized retailer", though if you go to the store you would not know that, and it's clear they keep it as hidden as legally possible. I signed up for a prepaid plan, and paid $20 for a SIM card, $35 "Set up" fee. Guess how much Verizon charges for those things"? ZERO DOLLARS. Now I know, after going to an actual Verizon store. I left this store having paid $60 (add tax of course) and I still did not have a functional SIM card, I still had to sign up and pay for actual service by ummm, calling Verizon. But since my SIM card was not yet functional...This place is a total scam. Hey good people our there - just go to an actual Verizon store. read more

Verizon, as per usual, is the absolute worst. So we went in on Black Friday for the iPhone X deal, and great, got that. We were also offered the newest iPad Gen. 6 for only approximately $200. Cool! BUT we were told this deal came with unlimited data, and overall, our monthly bill would only increase by $10 for the new iPad's monthly service fee and then some for the new device monthly payments. Now you might be thinking "oh this dumb girl didn't ask about any additional charges"-- but we explicitly asked how this would affect our monthly bill, and like I said, we were told it would increase by $60 or so dollars. Come time our bill arrived, the amount had actually doubled. I understand that part of this was due to the device payment upgrade fee (which seriously, Verizon? You have to charge a payment upgrade fee and a device setup fee?) and some other things, but surprise surprise, the iPad's monthly service charge turned out to be $20, and the new unlimited plan is a banging $45 per device per month (~2x what we were paying for our previous plan). No discounts, no credits, nada. Called customer support and they couldn't do anything about it, but thankfully, they were able to revert us back to our old plan. In short, Verizon's workers are always a bunch of liars who tell you things just to make you buy things so they can get more commission. Don't EVER expect anything otherwise. read more

I recently went in to Verizon and was helped by Marlena Sackleh. She was beyond accommodating and extremely nice. She had us in and out very quickly . She also got us so many promotions that we ended up coming out on top with awesome phones. She was by far the best costumer service I've received in a decade ! I recommend this store ( especially her) for any cell phone needs !! read more

Phone trouble is usually a headache but Jonathan was great. He helped my daughter get her phone fixed. He was patient and very knowledgeable. Hopefully we don't have to come back but if we do we will look for him. read more

Ouch! Should've read the reviews before going. Just wasted 20 mins here waiting like an idiot. The store is empty with only 2 people working. When we showed up no one greeted us whatsoever or asked what we needed. Their store front is misleading. It looks like a standard Verizon shop, which I assumed can help with any customer needs. Turned out it's a third party retailer shop, and of course they can't support the service I needed for my account. Not to mention the poor business etiquette. Steer clear and don't go!!! read more

I upgraded my iPhone here to a 13 pro. The stuff here is kind, helpful and patience. He was able to answer all my questions and get me the best offer. read more

This Verizon store is amazing - great customer service. Every time I come, they are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. In particular, the manager, Marlena, and Parshawn, were great! Very patient with all of my questions and helpful in figuring out the best plan and products. Very honest and didn't try to oversell me. Will absolutely come back. read more

After being turned away from a Verizon Store twice. I went to this retailer for my upgrade needs. They were fast and efficient. And didn't have a personality of a robot. Thank you so much. I love my new iPhone 12 read more

My family and I came yesterday to change to Verizon. We had a bunch of questions, had a lot of technical difficulties with accounts, had a restless toddler, and with all of this, Marlena was super patient in explaining everything in detail and taking the time to deal with my difficult mom and the process, while also being super friendly to my toddler nephew. The entire process to switch over, get new phones, etc. etc. was over 4 hours long! Marlena even stayed past close to ensure we were taken care of and had no questions. We are highly satisfied with the level of expertise, patience, professionalism, and friendliness that Marlena and George showed to my family and me. Thank you again!! read more

The worst Customer service ever. I honestly don't recommend anyone to go in there, the people they hire are very unprofessional and rude. I'm never going back again. read more

BEWARE this authorized reseller. I went in to switch to Verizon and buy a new phone. The sales person sold me "up" a model by telling me I qualified for a $300 trade-in promotion on my old phone. When the promotion wouldn't go through on the computer, he told me that they'd been having this problem and he'd have to put through a paper request - but assured me I'd get the trade-in. I'm not sure if he outright lied to me to get my business or if he was just incompetent, but when I called Verizon I was told my purchase did not qualify for the $300 promotion. When I called the sales person to complain, he told me he'd put the paperwork through a second time ... fast forward a week, Verizon doesn't have a record that he's done that. Fortunately Verizon corporate acts with integrity and has made it right for me. It's worth a drive to go to a DIFFERENT Verizon store. Avoid this one! read more

Best customer service I've had in awhile! Jade is so awesome to work with! We needed to add a line and upgrade two iphones and he made sure he got us the best deals; maximizing all promotions. A week later I decided to get an Apple Watch and had no doubt that we should go see him. Of course he took care of us! Not only did he help set everything up but he also walked me through the bill to make sure we understood all our recent purchase. Jade is an asset to that store and already referred a few friends. read more

Fantastic customer service, best experience I've had! I was greeted right away by Dylan and Curtis, and they were both wonderful. Dylan helped me to upgrade my phone with Verizon and explained all the promotional options available to me to get the best deal. He was in no rush and explained everything with patience. Saved me lots of money! Very AGREEABLE (:P) and super friendly people. Also helped me pick the right case and screen protection. Definitely recommend! read more

Avoid this so called Verizon authorized retailer especially Johnathan Barron. He intentionally lied to my family that we could get the student discount & defrauded us to move my other three carrier lines to Verizon. His misrepresentation & misconduct are totally unacceptable & I already filed a complaint to FTC, his brand manager & Verizon headquarter. read more

Should have read reviews. After wasting over an hour waiting for the manager got no clear answer on how to resolve the problem created by the store manager installing a screen protector. Do not deserve even a one star. read more

Horrible service if you get a new phone they put the Sims card in and hand it back to you and say take it home and set it up yourself.

Arthur Lam was awesome. He helped me upgrade 2 phones using Verizon promo. He was fast and efficient. I was in and out in under an hour. This Cellular Sales store was also the only store within the Bay Area that have the iPhone and color I wanted at the time. Thank you Arthur and Cellular Sales. read more

I was extremely pleased with the service at the Millbrae location. Darin was polite and knowledgeable and got me all set up in a timely manner. This is actually my second visit for two different devices. Will definitely be going back as technology changes! read more
