Verizon Customer (Dis)Service

I could die of old age on the phone as I slog through the Verizon customer service menu. It asks a question, I answer it, and it takes a minute or longer for the next menu item.

Or it just fucking disconnects me and I have to start over.

Congratulations, Verizon. I really thought it was going to be hard to find a company that has worse telephone customer service support than Comcast.

But you managed to achieve that.

My fucking phone is not working. Why is it so bloody hard to get a guy to come out and fix it? Why do I have to slog through an interminable set of computer-driven questions and then get disconnected?

It wasn't this way back when you weasels were part of Ma Bell; I'd just dial 611 and I'd have an appointment with a repairman in less than a minute.

But not anymore.

    History repeats itself :-(.
