This is Broken: Verizon Phone Repair

You can’t call Verizon wired phone repair to tell them your phone is broken unless you’re calling from a Verizon number. My AT&T cell and Skype Out both tell me the number on the Verizon repair site, (area code) 890-6611 does not exist.

I noticed this way back last year when I had a phone issue, and it hasn’t changed. Perhaps I need to complain to the Public Service Commission?

UPDATE: Well, the phone call wasn’t necessary. They dispached from the website, in 24 hours, and found that, low and behold, the problem was they hadn’t buried the cable well. A neighbor with a mower or edge trimmer clipped the line. They’ll be sending someone out to bury the wire a bit deeper, sometime this week.

After almost 4 hours of dealing with Continental yesterday, and a flight delay of 3 hours today I’ll be leaving to go to the airport (across the street) shortly for a few hours of passport control hospitality and 8 hours in a seat. I’m just looking forward to seeing the wife and kids and getting lots of hugs, as soon as possible. I am tired.
The folks at Citizen M have been really hospitable. Time to head out. Later, everyone!
