FYI 3G and 4G Is Down Nation Wide

[AndroidXTC]

Just talked to Verizon. It appears to be only the Thunderbolts too! I called and bitc@ed they gave me a 50% credit on my bill.

Well thats the best news from all of this! Stopping by BIG Red's house on the way home to put in a formal complaint. Maybe see if I can get one of those extended batteries too. (Ya know, just in case)

Just got off the phone with them and still no ETA for a fix..

I didn't get no discount! My complaining skills suck. :-!

 

[AndroidXTC]

On 3g also.

Well The lady said I could force it into 3G but if I did this when the service comes back I would have to re program the phone to get 4G again. I choose not to just getting 1X

Yeah I'm on 1x here in jersey. 3g isn't working for me.

I complained and got 1.39 back. equivalent to one days worth of 4g service from the 39.99 that I pay each month. she said if the problem still persists to call again tomorrow and complain agaon an di would get credited.
somebody said 50% up there? wow that's impressive dude. I've read somebody got 15 dollars.

They gave me back half of my calling plan. Did you use sugar or acid?

I can't believe you accepted that...it's an insult.
They tried offering my back the same 'prorated amount' of $1 and I basically told them to go screw themselves.
I haven't been that offended in awhile actually.

Escalated it to a supervisor and told her how insulting it is to offer a $1 credit to a customer who over the life of the contract will pay close to $2,000.
10 minutes later and she offers me half the month so I ended up with a $15 credit.

For anybody interested, I'm a new customer and just got my TBolt from Amazon yesterday.

I'm still in shock that a customer support rep pulled up my account, saw that I signed a brand new two year contract just yesterday, and had the nerve to offer me a $1 credit.
I almost disconnected the line right then and there.
Forget the network outage, as someone who works at a software company, I can understand these things.

But I would rather you take a dump on my chest and insult my mother than to offer me a $1 credit...what a slap in the face.

Also in 1x in NJ. Blerg.

I'm on 1X in Delaware. I'm just using WiFi in my house anyways so I don't really mind it

I called before I knew this was a widespread problem and was then informed it was not just my phone. I asked about a credit and they gave me a credit for a free month of data. It's not quite half my bill (which would be like $125), but hey, it's something!
