A couple of month's ago we couldn't call my in-laws.
They are elderly - we were worried - and they're over an hour's drive away. Finally we dispatched the cops....

A day later we drove over for Sunday dinner and the phone still wasn't working. No dial tone, dead pair at the NID. Somewhere in the Verizon system their copper pair had been disconnected. Curiously, a spare pair at their NID was "hot" - bridged to someone else's house phone - I used that to call in the trouble ticket. Even though it was their fault, Verizon wouldn't commit to a fix date of less than three days -- but the next day it was fixed...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13199727 Mon, 18 Apr 2005 13:06:21 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13199345 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13199345 Mon, 18 Apr 2005 12:05:02 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13198828

It is just stupid.

Oh well, I WILL be getting a credit for this. And on the bright side I get FIOS tomorrow.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13195098 Sun, 17 Apr 2005 20:13:20 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194578 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194578 Sun, 17 Apr 2005 18:51:38 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194283 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194283 Sun, 17 Apr 2005 18:04:34 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194266 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194266 Sun, 17 Apr 2005 18:01:44 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194157
Verizon shut off my home phone on saturday in preparation for it. I am not late on my bill, no problems with anything, they just said it is policy. I called to tell them to turn it back on, and they said they can't because it switched to FIOS. Don't get me wrong, I am very excited to be getting the service, but the home phone dials my alarm company in case of a break in and the simple fact is that I have no home phone.

I just find it hard to believe that they could be sooooooo stupid. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Verizons-Stupid-Policy-13194157 Sun, 17 Apr 2005 17:44:12 EDT
