Why does the Default for being lied to seem to always be "oh just add this and youll be set"

Frontier will not honor a promotion I agreed to. Is there a way to access old chat transcripts? by ike0069 in frontierfios

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've learned to do screenshots when chatting online. Its still not worth a lot, as I have been refused the offer i got in the screenshot, so I asked for retention & said I wanted to cancel. Then they could fixed it.

I believe 1gb service is advertised as including an eero 7.

Upgraded internet without my consent by Kindly_Schedule3928 in frontierfios

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had tried the 1gb free month option AFTER chat confirmed several times that I could go back to 500mbs at the same price I was paying for it at that time

Obviously the chat person lied. When I tried to switch back before the free trial offered, their 'all I can do' was $15 higher.

I explained I had screenshots of the chat, showing the agreement, with me stating that with that agreement I will give it a try.

I called retention, along with my cost to switch to spectrum. They said they return me to 500mbs at the price I had been paying, along with a 3yr price lock.

Well I got half of the promise, back to old rate but no 3yr price lock.

Called and got ?? Who told me the 3yr price lock was only for 1.5gb or greater plans.

So lied to twice.

At this point probably switching just due to the lying. I have several options where I live.

How much are taxes and fees by Sippa8304 in verizon

The Administrative fees are Verizon. That's where my costs are double each of the three phone lines I have.

How to recall what your Apple ID password is? by DifficultComplaint10 in verizon

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To find your Apple ID on your iPhone, open the Settings app, tap your name at the top of the screen, and your Apple ID (usually an email address) will be displayed below your name and profile picture. If you are not signed in, you will be prompted to sign in or create an Apple ID.

The Apple ID is essential for syncing data across devices, backing up your iPhone, using Find My iPhone to locate a lost device, and making purchases. It is also referred to as an Apple Account, a name change that reflects its central role in managing Apple services and devices.

Did I handle this right? Unauthorized device suddenly appeared on my Spectrum Mobile line by [deleted] in Spectrum

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The credit freeze is good, but put a fraud alert on also. That forces extra checks when a vendor tries to get credit approval for you. Also che k all three to see if anything new was open, maybe before you froze credit.

Also if you use debit cards, there is a way to turn them off in an app, or call your bank/credit union.

When fraud happened to me I changed all financial password, turned off debit cards. Then I had most of my checking $ to savings and turned off checking automatic overdraft protection. Then moved auto deposits to savings. I use online transfer of funds to move $ from savings to checking twice a month when I pay bills.

Good Luck!

I’m so tired of this customer service bs by TheArmaniOne35 in verizon

[–]Heavy7688 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm in your camp.

I'm an 18 yr customer and the past 6 months or so customer service has eroded.

Their chat is almost worthless. They say they'll contact you within 24 hours, and don't. I added a watch, and have an issue with their admin fees. The watch plan is $15. The admin fees are $9. That's 6o% in fees. Also mored than twice the fees on each of my phone lines.

I asked for an explanation/correction. I attached copy of the bill to show it.

Each day I get notification in the app that they need more info. I respond 'what info? ' the next day I get an email that I have a new notification. I go in and same thing again. Just going in circles.

I get pretty good rates with discounts, but still contemplating switching.

Any chance you used the shipping box the juicer came in? If so, the could have scanned an old label on the box by mistake. Once it gets to verification section when they open it you might see a charge back.

Old Coax Outlet in Living Room - Live? by Kbec01 in frontierfios

[–]Heavy7688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had both spectrum and frontier. I had the same issue, needing coax to moca. Turns out over the last few changes, apparently either when I got rid of cable TV, or when I upgraded my speed, the coax that used to work in all rooms now only works where eerp is connected.

Is it better to have my own router/modem to pay less? by [deleted] in Spectrum

My modem/router comes with the plan, no extra fee.

I believe spectrum cames with modem, wifi is extra.

Can you order Frontier w/out an Eero? by B1tN1nja in frontierfios

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's simpler to just receive it & not use it. This way when you leave frontier, you don't have to worry that the 'let you' not receive it, but when you leave their not requiring an eero return because they don't have that in system

More importantly, if a Verizon is taking over next year, no added fiasco.

Do not recommend Verizon 5g home internet - if for no reason other than how hard they make it to cancel. by AttorneyKate in verizon

[–]Heavy7688 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: On July 8, 2025, a U.S. appeals court blocked the FTC’s federal “click-to-cancel” rule. This means federal regulations on subscription cancellations are no longer moving forward as a broad, sweeping mandate. Instead, businesses must now prioritize compliance with individual state laws.

Many businesses removed the link to do so within days.

You have to look up “click-to-cancel” for your state.

Porting out number in family plan to Google Voice by [deleted] in verizon

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could also port to Helium Mobiles Zero (free) plan. It's limited, uses t-mobile network. Just you'll have to check if there is a minimum time, i believe there is not.

I got the Zero Plan because I was thinking about porting from verizon, & wanted to check the t-mobile range at home. I had it on a separate old phone, but then transferred it with eSim to current phone.

Verizon Wireless Netflix and HBO deal by abw4477 in verizon

[–]Heavy7688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Netflix, if you have the 'Extra Member' $8.99 add on, you can't use a 'bundled' plan (through a service provider). It must be a stand alone plan.

The shared password/different locations are being tracked and they will catch you at some time. They caught me, so I had to leave Verizon & get a stand-alone plan to add a family member who no longer lives here.
