Re: Why billing is screwed up Verizon has separate Fiber Solutions Centers (FSC) for Fios, when I was there we had 5 or 6, not sure how many now.
These are solely dedicated to Fios tech support.
Billing also now has separate centers, if we called the old centers we got transferred.
Whilst there have been gliches, Verizon are still trying very hard to get it all right. |

They also outsource some fios support to telvista in irving, tx. In an attempt to hide the existence of the outsourcing from certain union areas, telvista ("park west fsc") is to transfer any callers not from Florida, Texas, Calif, Washington, Oregon, or South Carolina.
Telvista fsc reps don't have access to all the tools "real" reps do. They also do not support (and thus transfer) video. However, most are former dsl agents and are more technically inclined than your average verizon fsc rep, a good number of which are former billing/service reps.
Note that the relationship is not new. Telvista has provided dsl support for verizon from the beginning. |
