First things first. I am not the type to update my iPhone, in fact I haven't even been inside a Verizon since 2017. When I go there all the screens and grey streamline stuff just give me a raging headache, idk how the workers do it. But I realized my iPhone 8 wasn't cutting it anymore, the screen was smashed to smotherines in multiple places and it was always at 5%. For some reason i didn't want to let go of my little home button though. Anyways I decided it was time to move on and rip off the IOS band aid. When I showed up to Verizon I didn't know they do a queue. This is fine, time to browse and Peruse while you are in the queue. But let's be honest we all know you come to Verizon to get the new iPhone and you just look at the other stuff for fun. Well I was dead set on the iPhone 15 pro and I was dehydrated in the queue. I was second in line but my head ache was getting worse. I was inpatient and wanted to be anywhere but there. I thought to myself I just need to push through and buy the iPhone 15 and leave with a new phone that has battery. Well my turn in the queue comes, and I tell the worker that I want to switch my plans to join my partners family plan. Perfect and easy right? Well he tells me if I get a new phone number I can get the iPhone 15 for free. He says this is a no brainer. My brain says that how could I ever get rid of my phone number. My indecisiveness gets worse, my headache rages on. I can tell how annoying I'm being in my indecisive hell. But a phone number is a way of life. It's a social security number. It's a major life decision to change it. I think one has to be a little wild lunatic to be changing that left and right. But the trade off here was about 900$. I was convincing myself my phone number was worth 900$. And then I flipped, I crossed the threshold into not giving a fuck anymore. I didn't give a fuck about my phone number or the day or the time. It was just me right there in Verizon with the employee and the present moment was the only thing that mattered. From there on we start cracking jokes and having a good time. I'm excited the iPhone will be mine for free and I put all that baggage about my cell phone number in the past. Forget it. And then the best thing ever happened. My new number was the most perfect number I have ever seen in my entire life. I won't write it here, but I have to say I've truly never seen a sequence of 7 numbers that were so perfectly meant for each other. Every cell in my body knew this was right. I had the number memorized in one instance, rolling off my tongue. The awesome employee went to go get iPhone 15 from his cozy place in the safe. Meanwhile I chose a sparkling case and familiarized myslef with apples latest crap in making new charging ports. When we got the iPhone I was the one who had to legally open the box, which was invigorating and terrifying. Leaping forward into the unknown, no going back. Time is just a concept at this point. He puts the screen protector on, and the little things around the camera and some sick consumerist pleasure comes over me as a I see the sparkling iPhone prepare to be mine. It's in this moment the weight of the world disappears and I cannot even believe the ways I was being unconscious when I first arrived at Verizon. At the end of the day I left with a new free phone, a perfect new number, and an interaction at Verizon that will leave a lasting impression on me. It definitely takes a certain type of employee to handle the energy that I brought in that day. Thanks so much to Ryan at Verizon. Altho I have to say I am typing this on my old phone but I swear I'll cancel it soon.

Waiting time to get help is ridiculous, not enough workers

This is actually for the store on Central Ave. My sales rep was Cody and he did a great job of transferring me into a new Verizon account. He was matter-of-fact and easygoing and walked me through the whole process. Big thumbs up for his service!

Went In to the Verizon store as a AT&T thirty year customer & walked out a new Verizon customer. I am immediately greeted at the door by an associate and then introduced to Andrew whom would be my sales agent I worked with. He was super nice & took time to explain all the plan options and I ended up with the latest I-phone AND Saving $10 a month on my bill. Thanks to Andrew and the staff at this store. Good job nabbing a 30 year now "former" loyal AT&T customer!!
