Is Verizon Outages affecting anyone accounts?

I was not able to open my email account and was told it was b/c someone tried a numbers of times to open it. I called their office and the guy said they had an outages and no tried to hack into my account. Damn I wish the message had said there was an outages instead of saying my account was hacked into . Is anyone else having any issues with the outages ? I heard nothing on the news about this today.

I posted the wrong link . I was told on the phone today that this outages was widespread . The link on the Google page had Sept 19 2014 . I posted this thread b/ci wanted to know if anyone having any issues the guy from Verizon said this was happening international .
 
:dunno: mine is fine, never had a hiccup with Verizon, still better than Tmo, sprint, and Wynd!

This is weird , I called their office and got a guy who another country and had trouble understanding between his accent and being along distance call I had to ask for someone from my country ,USA. I still had a hard time understanding the guy, I could hear him fine but the phones they use are horrible to me. I think most people at my condo have Comcast , but I do not want everything on Comcast b/c when they have tech trouble or an outage you lose everything . People had no phones, TV ,or computer for a whole day and I still had a phone and computer .

I agree. I've noticed no outages. It might either be regional or the specific user complaining about her services.
 
Not many here realize that not every place all over are the same. I was laughed when two AD members arguing each other about their technical devices, they both think they are wrong each other, they forgot that they are in two completely different locations, no two service locations are the same, EVEN when the company are the same (This includes how its set up, what kind of cable, what kind of interfaces and so on). Time warner for example, here in Rochester, NY is NOT the same system as Victor, NY that is 30 miles southeast. They got their own system. So, Internet outrage varies in geographic locations. How many towers do we see? Thousands, right? Or maybe more right? Not all go out at same time. Same with Internet switches on the road, we got millions of them around, not all of them go out at same time... almost impossible really.

What service is out where seems to vary greatly by location although quite extensive.

The thing I am really upset about is Verizon moved it offices out of USA , I do not like waiting on the phone 20 minutes or longer only to get someone I can't understand.
 
No issues on my account or networks in my area.

This is interesting , I wonder why I was told this was wide spread. Now
I am concerned about my email account .I was told it was locked b/c there been a number of failed attempted to open it and when I asked Verizon if that meant someone tried to hack into my account they said "NO" .
And I am very careful and NEVER open any unknown emails.
 
Its the cost of labor, its cheaper to have calling center outside of the US, it is called outsourcing, not moved. The Verizon corp didn't move their headquarters out of country.

Same principle, would you want to pay 100 dollars for pair of jean at Macy's or just 15 dollar at Walmart for same pair of jean? Same with corporation, are they willing to pay somebody 15 dollars an hour here or 2 dollars an hour in India, and don't forget its hundred thousands of employees verses 1 pair of jeans that most preferred bought from Walmart. It is purely business, nothing personal period.

I know why they moved out of USA , I just do not like it. I used the wrong word . I could not think of the right one . Where did I say this was personal ??? That is 'your ' word and NOT mine! Damn stop trying to put words into my mouth ! You had told me nothing new. I think outsourcing
suck!
 
Verizon is not a person, they are not into personal with you, they are into PURELY business with you, nothing more, nothing less. They only care is YOUR MONEY, that is all. They don't want to lose more money just to have a personal touch. It is THEIR perspective not you.

actually Supreme Court disagrees with you. Verizon is legally recognized as an individual... therefore the common rights and Constitution apply to Verizon.
 
Oh really? Wow Verizon has heart, lungs, stomach, brain with two eyes, a nose, and a mouth... BTW what is in between Verizon's legs? I am curious... Isn't it a dick, or can't or trans? I am so curious and can't wait to find out!

take it up with Supreme Court. in the eyes of law.... Verizon is an individual :)

by your logic.... is a pirate not a person because of one eye? is a person without stomach (vertical sleeve gastrectomy surgery) not a person?
