Gabriel was great! He worked with us patiently until we got everything sorted out with all our new phones and lines.

Gabriel is the best. He is the reason we drive over an hour out of our way when we need to visit a Verizon store. Chat with a Verizon associate via your myverizon account - nope. Talk to anyone else - nope. Gabriel is the best! Patient, knowledgeable, efficient. We can’t recommend him enough and if he ever leaves Russell Cellular - we won’t go back. And our experience is not the exception. I hope they pay him well - he deserves it and more.

Replaced my dead phone in near record time. I was in a rush and they helped me out - Gabriel moved fast, didn’t waste time trying to sell me things I wasn’t interested in, and I was out the door with a new phone and all contacts transferred in maybe a half hour.
