This isn't an IP-related call for help, but hopefully someone on here from Verizon is listening or knows someone who can help me. On May 5 I was in touch with account manager J from Verizon who quoted me and set me up with an Ethernet-delivered circuit. The order was placed with implementations manager N. Somewhere during the time it took them between May and July to install the fiber, N dropped off the face of the earth. I asked J WTF is going on and I was put in touch with new implementations manager B who actually managed to finish the job. Turn up time came and - guess what - someone had failed to enter the details of the order (or whatever) between May and August and I didn't get what I ordered. So I tried to call J. Surprise, J's number goes to someone totally different. Many weeks of confusing calls later I finally managed to find J's boss (which is fun because I'm not an active customer yet) and confirmed that J is not there anymore somewhere between Sept 4 and Sept 6. He gave me contact info for my supposed replacement, but they have yet to answer or return even one of my daily calls for a week. I did get a survey for my not-install, gave it horrible marks and checked "please contact me", but nobody has. I've tried every phone number and email address I can get my hands on for the last month with no results. I don't have an account manager. Can anyone help? ~Seth

is this for 19262 type services? 701-type services? private services? you may have luck, for 701-type services, with the generic support number... for the others I don't know :( 19262 is horrendous for customer support experiences (for me and everyone else i know that has to deal with it)
what does route views say?
:) 'no route to sales folk' I never had good luck,m as an employee trying to bring business in, in getting sales folk to help me... i doubt it's changed drastically since then. -chris

It's 701. Trying to add them to my upstream mix, nothing exciting or exotic. Calling the generic number is like they spin a wheel to transfer me to someone who wonders how in the world I got their number, if they pick up.

My next tactic is to have some friends who have time on their hands to call them every day until someone is able to help. ~Seth
