Verizon Sued Over Aggresive Email Blockage
from the Europe?--who-needs-to-talk-to-Europe? dept
Verizon has been getting a lot of negative publicity over their decision to block a large percentage of foreign email for American customers. While their response so far has been to tell people to go "make a phone call" if they can't contact loved ones, colleagues or friends outside of the US, it appears that some people feel the matter is a little more serious. They're working on putting together a class action lawsuit against Verizon, suggesting that they were misled when told that the company was offering them email access -- which tends to come without strings. This, of course, is a problem that's been discussed plenty of times before. Filtering spam is tricky, and many users do want spam filters -- but there should be some element of user choice and user control over how those spam filters work. Simply blocking out huge sections of the emailing world seems beyond extreme to the point of actively driving away a number of customers.

I am happy I became a Christian, have strong faith. It’s not worth selling your soul to the devil to get promoted. It's to cut throat in the business department. I had a similar incident. I was in a new position in the business department, that was about to give me a nervous breakdown. Then, on top of that pain, I experienced a life crisis with my spouse that almost sent me over the edge. I ended up going out on Short-Term disability. My AD, John was directed by the HR, and Director, Monica to group code all of my time out as Vacation until MetLife approved the time off. Well, just as I expected, MetLife gave me nothing but pure grief and only approved about 3 of my 8 weeks out. Verizon Wireless is a great company but it really depends upon what department you are in. You can fare well in just about any department but business is a piece of shit department, management is horrible they need classes on professional and core values. I worked in business for 4 years and it really takes butt kissing, sleeping around, boot licking, light skin long hair, to get to a decent salary. I know too many people that left because of stress. Went to various positions outside of service and the difference were as big as night and day. The benefits are good and the phone discount was excellent. I left the company to move on to greener pastures and I wish you job seekers much luck.....does remember to stay out of business department. Starting pay in service in handover location is not worth all the pain the director put you through, the director kiss and suck all kind of dick to get promoted I heard she got more drama than any other boss there and Verizon wireless help her to continue to promote hate. I hope Roderick do get his money. I didn't make that up...I still have friends in payroll and HR. That was pretty sorry if you ask me. I spent most of my time dealing with MetLife, instead of getting better. I decided that the pressure and stress was no longer worth it to me or my family. Therefore, I resigned the end of June. I am still waiting for a paycheck for my remaining vacation, and it will probably be a miracle if I receive one. The stupid AD and Director always telling you to escalate your problem. Like you, I have decided that the Lord has something better in store for me; I just have to be patient. Stay away from Verizon wireless business department they all are crazy from directors to ad. I heard about this law sue and it does not surprise me at all. I have an extensive forum in customer service also well over twenty years and the business department is just horrible. Call Centers are not meant for some people. Unfortunately, the experience I had was not a good one. All divisions are different (the company is great - the people in charge is what sometimes put a sour taste in one's mouth. Have a great day and may God bless you.
WOW!!!!!, I left the company on June 8th, because I could not put up with the crap anymore and the same damn thing happened to me, it took me yelling at my x-supervisor and AD to get a paycheck a MONTH after I was suppose to!!!!!!!!! There is something seriously wrong with this company, and the people here defending the practices of this place are obviously a$$ kissers, BC, Verizon is honestly a nightmare, I am so happy I left and Im sure you are too. I consider myself to be a hard worker and try to project a professional image at all times; however, I outgrew this place very fast. This place was a complete mess!!! The management team was completely incompetent, especially the Director and ADs. It was GHETTO fabulous every single day. I started out with 8 people in my training class -- half of them left within the first 6 months!! These are highly competent people with degrees, professionalism, etc.
Positives -- Excellent benefits
Negatives -- Poor management, training/trainers or lack thereof; unprofessional supervisors (especially the Ads and Director); high and unrealistic expectations when it comes to work assignments; low employee moral; promotions are given to friends/butt kissers; being treated like a child at all times...the culture of the call center has a "high school" mentality; inconsistent policies and procedures. The AD and Directors act like if there fucking job is so important and there pay is only three grades above us.
I totally agree with the previous posts about staying away from all Customer Service jobs -- Customer Service Representative; Account Liaison; Customer Service Coordinators.
Verizon is a terrible place to work. For eight years I had to go to Human Resources about AD's and supervisors. I had issues from FMLA to Management acting CRAZY. People are promoted based on who they know or who they sleep with. There is no concern for you or your family. It’s not worth the money to work there and not have peace of mind. I hope in the near future that a class action law suit can be filed against them so the world can really see what the employees deal with. The place is a revolving door because many of the pregnant ladies take the maternity leave and never come back. The AD's, Directors, and Supervisors are horrible. They do not have any knowledge to offer. They could care less if you work like a slave. I am currently seeking employment so far away from Wireless communications. What ever you do, please do not apply at the BSC (Business support center). It really is very hard to get promoted out of this department. If you have an AD or Supervisor that are not fond of you they will block you getting interviews with other departments.
