How do I report a problem with my Verizon wireless/mobile phone?

Verizon Wireless is a major mobile phone provider across America, and the company has a very efficient customer service team. If you're experiencing a problem with your mobile phone, you can use the live chat on Verizon's website or phone the customer service helpline to resolve your issue.

Tips to help you fix your Verizon wireless mobile phone problem

If you're having issues with your Verizon wireless mobile phone, you could try the following. If these tips don't help, phone the customer service team or contact them via live chat.

  • If you cannot connect to the internet from your Verizon wireless mobile phone, you could try clearing the cache and cookies, as this may help.
  • If your phone isn't receiving or able to make calls, this could be due to a signal outage in your area. If there's a planned outage, you should have been told beforehand. However, sometimes there may be a fault that's caused an unplanned outage. If you think this is the case, you can call Verizon for an estimation of when the service will be resumed.
  • Similarly, if your internet isn't working on your phone, it could be due to a wifi outage. Try connecting other devices to your wifi or connecting your phone to another wifi network to determine whether the issue is with your phone or your wifi connection.

  • You may also like to try restoring your phone to its factory settings to see whether it works more effectively.
  • If you've recently downloaded a new app, this may have affected your phone. Try uninstalling it to see if that has any effect on the operation of your phone.
  • Sometimes certain zip codes have coverage issues. You can provide Verizon with your zip code when you contact them, and they can check the coverage in your area and help with troubleshooting.
