    I've been dealing with a huge issue and cannot get in touch with the store. Living over 5 hours away, they sold my daughter a phone to replace her "broken" phone without acknowledging that the "broken" phone not only had insurance but was also under warranty. Verizon stepped in, got us a new phone, and instructed us to return the "purchase" phone to the Verizon Victra store.. We returned the phone on 9/12/25. This store never closed the phone out in the system, and as a result, the $1124.82 cannot be credited until they do this! They credited the measly $31.40 activation fee, but not the $1124.82! I spent over 8 hours on several calls and chats. In the end, Verizon says they need to speak to the store manager at the local store, whom they cannot get in touch with, or get anyone at the location to answer a phone! I just need a call back and someone to provide a tiny bit of customer service. This is terrible for Verizon and Verizon Victra as it relates to a long-standing customer who is about to leave and go to another carrier!!!!

    These days when so much customer service is terrible other places, I need to give a shout out to Vanessa who was super friendly and helpful getting a data problem resolved - she’s a five-star Verizon team member!

    Vanessa was outstanding taking the time to ensure my new phone will have all essential items. She was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the programs available and the technical side of phone service. She is an amazing example of what service should be.
