The following quotes are from a review I wrote for this store on Verizon Wireless's website. They ask for reviews. And I gave them one. Read this and there's more to follow:

"Both I and my step-brother agree the service was terrible. My step-father, who had Verizon service on his phone, passed away recently and I've been using his phone since then and we've been paying the bill. We want to transfer the service into my name.My step-brother, who is power of attorney, met me at the store with the death certificate and latest bill so we could transfer the service into my name and so I could keep the same phone number. Well the clerk told us he couldn't do that, and instead shocked us by giving us a phone number to call when there is not a single phone number on the bill. We had everything the store needed to make this change of service but he just chose not to help us unless I upgraded to a new phone for around $400."
For one thing, you can't present a death certificate over the phone. Secondly, not long after I wrote this review on the VW website, I checked back to see if there was any feedback yet, only to find that my review was deleted and still showing 0 reviews. Each time I tried to re-add it - yes, I saved it - the system told me there a problem and to try again later. Part of the review process requires an email address - I suppose that's to make you think you'll get some personalized service. Well, VW blocked me from writing anymore reviews by blocking my email address. How do I know? Because when I pasted the same review in the field and input a different email address, the review was accepted - and later deleted just like the first one. The "Contact Us" function on the VW website was no help - in fact, it seems designed to circumvent anything in writing. They want to call me about my problem on February 13, 2020. Yep. That's their idea of them getting in touch with you. You see, I had copied the complaint so I could paste it into a document or email or text field on their website - none of those exist. You can call them through the web page, you can have them call you, or you can open chat customer service if you can get them to answer. No one did. No email issue resolution, no way to write anything to them except in chat. And every time I tried to open chat the page never resolved. But here's their idea of "We'll call you. Choose a date and time we can call." Here are the options: "Feb. 13, 2020; Feb.14, 2020; Feb. 15, 2020." And the original issue is still unresolved. read more
