    The absolute worst verizon experience yet tonight in Hickory. The individual that was supposed to help us. Has 0 customer relations skills. But that's OK. We have a new Verizon store to shop now.

    The absolute poorest customer service ever received. Upon returning a device to this store, the associate mixed up the return and deleted the agreed upon phone credit without explanation. After waiting about a week thinking the situation would correct itself, I returned to the store. Not only was the second associate, Jay, unhelpful, he was rude. He made snarky comments and refused to let me speak to the manager. He also claimed he was ‘being nice’ by letting me see MY account information and could not give me anything to reference when calling customer support, which was his only solution for the problem his store created. Verizon is a shell game! I’m not one for poor reviews, but here I am since I was unable to handle the situation in the store with the manager as I requested.

    This place is trash. Verizon has been going downhill for awhile now. It's TRASH.... TRASH..... and More TRASH. Customer service is TRASH. Cell service is TRASH. Verizon squeezed my service unit I am no longer able to connect to the Server. Same spot, 5G and then later you have next to no service or just completely cut from the Cell Tower. Verizon is TRASH.

    Recently, I went in to bring back some of my lines from another carrier. Shane (salesperson) is very courteous and prompt to reply. Lauren (manager) also was very helpful. I hope these two are there again when it’s time to do more business.
