Every time it takes at least 2 hours in store to fix what really isn't that hard.  Do the store computers and the actual billing people not get the same figures?  I don't know, but my family is about ready to drop the whole plan we have with them and that would be 5 phones, as we are in a family plan.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Debbie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 2:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[Want the bold! can you guys work on that, please.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bold]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 2:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[I question Verizon's integrity.  In trying to promote the Blackberry Storn, they offered a contest internally.  if you sold enough, you's win a Storm of your own.  Verizon employees jumped at the chance...only Verizon set the bar too low. Hhundreds, if not thousands, of employees qualified.  So, Verizon's remedy?  Go back and scrutinize each call these people took that sold a Storm..and FIRE them if there were any mistakes, no matter how small.  Got them off the hook for the incentive package. Because, after all, when you take 50 or 60 calls a day, there's bound to be some kind of an error, right?<br>Just my opinion of the facts, of course, but I think this could be another class action suit against Verizon.  Would love to see an investigative piece done...making sure all the customers who had "errors" found in their calls were also compensated.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mia Culpa]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 3:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[Listen Verizon does not give away ANYTHING FREE!!!

Starting late in 2008 and now into 2009 I am experiencing the same type billing problems.  I confirmed that the store people, the billing people and the Kiosk's all have different figures for what you owe.  And, unless you really PUSH  the store management, you won't get the correct $ figure without a lot of push!  Therefore you could end up paying more than is really due (to avoid being shown late).  And it is (supposed) to reconcile on the next statement, although it does not always.  Guess who keeps those thousands of $'s to invest for a few weeks? - you guessed it Verizon does.  Remember what they say its ALL about the network right!  Baloney, it is REALLY all about service.  Also, the Kiosk's are even worse, if a credit has been applied, most of the time it doesn't show up!  Due to the cancellation fees you might want to be careful about cancelling, just remember this when it is time to renew.  They really don't care if you drop your service or not, they are already so successful.  Too bad Sprint hasn't really stepped up to the plate, they could easily capatilize on those existing customers who are out of contract with Verizon if they only played on Verizon's service weakness.  By the way recently got billed for a data package $49.99, TWICE, just because I have a (5) year old PDA that can do e-mails, yet I DON'T do e-mails--nor am i in contract, was told oh yea Verizon inplemented this back in Nov, 2008, I didn't see a notice did anyone else?  Course I pursued a credit and wating to get all of it.  Ya'll better check those bills you get even closer NOW!  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 11th 2009 9:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[then it's not free now is it?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 4:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[I NEVER WILL USE VERIZON AGAIN I DIDN,T USE MY PHONE MUCH AND THEY STILL GET BILLS FRM THEM I CANCEL FIVE TERS AGO YOU CALL GET RUN AROUND I NEVER PAY THEM AT ALL.THESE PEOPLE DONOT KNOW WHAT THEIR DOING AT ALL]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cletus stock]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 4:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/06/verizon-offering-buy-one-get-one-free-sale-on-blackberrys/</guid><description><![CDATA[My husband and I had Verizon and after our divorce, I signed up.  I've never had a problem with them...never.  Not being electronically illiterate, I wanted the most basic phone possible.  The sales people didnt't try to upgrade me but I did on my own.   If I had a problem, I just contacted Verizon and they corrected it.  For example, a company kept texting me and I was charged for premium texting.  The company continued until I told them I was contacting the AZ Attorney General.  Verizon took the premium billing charges off my phone...and block premium charges from anyone.  In four years, I've only had one dropped call...and it was an important one.  Verizon compensated me on my bill.  It would take a helluva lot for me to switch from Verizon.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PremYogini]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2009 6:35PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
