Verizon – Technology Stupidification.

I have a masters degree of computer science and whatever companies like Verizon do, doesn’t make any sense anymore.

A prepaid phone disconnects after traveling to Europe and luckily the number was still available 2 weeks later. A new phone is purchased at Verizon this time with a 3 year plan. The new and the old phone cannot connect to the Wifi at home, all valid passwords entered manually don’t connect and scanning the QR code for the Wifi access doesn’t work either.

The 3 year plan is $5 cheaper per phone if you allow Verizon to withdraw directly from your account, is that legal?

The old to the new phone data cannot be transferred neither by network nor by cable because the cable was not provided, to do this in the store is another $28.

Furthermore the newly bought phone cannot be charged because the cable doesn’t connect to the outlet.

You pay what for? to be bullshitted?

To return the new phone that never worked and cannot be charged as sold, will cost you a $50 restocking fee.

The charger is $20.

A prepaid Verizon phone that dropped out of service while traveling to Europe for 3 weeks doesn’t connect anymore to the home Wifi, the password is still stored on the device but cannot be retrieved. The customer sales representative doesn’t believe that this is actually happening.

Another hardware can connect to the home Wifi and can generate a QR code, however scanning the QR code with the new phone cannot connect to the Wifi either. The connection is denied because of a false password, the password cannot be retrieved from the device.

This is bullshit. A modern technology that is not working.

Why would anybody anyhow change the Wifi password from the router box to another one, that doesn’t work?

Xfinity the Wifi provider doesn’t connect to customer service representative since they falsely assume there is an outage in the area. Internet clearly is working on 2 other devices.

We, as we being a satisfied customer, don’t need this bullshit technology that is not working. Paying for a service that cannot be provided is fraud.

The time you have to spend to make this technology work is not worth the money and the aggravation.

Would you buy a car that has so much security that you cannot access and drive it? No you wouldn’t. Walking would be faster! Which reminds me of Mercedes Benz selling windshield wipers as an extra and Ferrari requires additional driving lessons when you purchased their car.

A phone doesn’t work anymore during a power outage, it used to be working since the analog phone service was a separate network: during a power outage you could make phone calls! To disconnect analog networks with a technology that doesn’t workis is what? Job security for the next generation?

Everything works fine the next day.

Homeless I hear virtually, why are you threatening?
