Cell phone update...

Ok... this morning I had the "bright idea" that I may have been stiffed on my cell phone... Soon as I woke up enough to make a call, I grabbed my phone & called VZ....

I explained to the lady that I had been given a date of when I would get my Chocolate... & this time I was told only 7 to 10 business days... I, also, informed her that shortly after my hubby had received a confirmation email along with a tracking #... but this time I have not seen anything. (While she had be on hold to look at my account I turned the JunkYard on & searched hubby's email... nope, nothing there!)

She came back & said she found the order but no tracking #... & said she had some case #. She said she was going to put me on a "2 minute hold" while she called Fed-Ex to see if they had a # generated yet.

Well, a couple minutes later I get "Hello, thank you for calling Fed-Ex, how may I help you?" ... I'm like uh... "Hello? Is the Vz lady on here too?" "You're calling Fed-Ex"... I said, I was not really the one calling... but seems I must have been transferred.

I explained to the Fed-Ex agent I was looking for a tracking # for my phone... & so she tried to search for my name & address, but didn't find anything. (Figures!!) "You'll have to call Vz"... "Uh... that's who I had called... I didn't call you!" (Not angrily said... because it wasn't her fault... also, I laughed internally... again... FIGURES!!)

So... I dialed *611 again (Vz customer service) & this nice man Jerome (I think... have it written down in the other room) answered & I explained to him what I was trying to achieve... He asked me a few questions & looked at my account. (Oh... he NEVER put me on hold!!!) And some how we got into talking about how all this started... So, I told him all the way back from how I first went to order the Chocolate & how the guy ordered it on my hubby's phone, instead of mine & how the contract dates for the phones are still messed up &... well, all of it.

This guy was very sympathetic & said... "well, tell you what... I do not see an order... but I do see a case #... but it's for something to do with pix place issue." "Yeah... that was a separate thing I dealt with the other day."

"Well, I do not see an order... so I am going to do this... I am going to ship you out the phone & you will receive it tomorrow sometime by 3:00p.m."

To make a long story short I was on the phone for over of an hour with this guy & he ended up making sure I get the phone at no charge & made sure all the plans & everything stayed the way they should & fixed the dates in their system... this way hubby won't have any problem getting a new phone...
when he's ready... HOPEFULLY!!

And he's supposedly given me credit & made very good notes that when I call back to get it activated of the problems before & so on & so on... So, we'll see how it all works out!! :)

I'm remaining guarded but optimistic that this guy has worked it all out!

And I am now can't wait until I get this tomorrow!! Oh, I did receive a tracking # this afternoon! So, now I know it's on it's way!!!!! :) :) :)

Watch out Maegan & PassionWolf... I am going to be a texting you!!! LOL (I just have to remember I have a limit of only 250 messages!!!)

(The picture is off of Google. I do have pictures of the Chocolate & I will post it later along with pictures of the Env2 when I can!!) :)

  6. That's great news!! I can't believe the first lady just sent you through to fedex. I'd be so mad. But I am glad Jerome helped you. It looks like a neat phone too!!! (for all the texting people). My phone is so plain, but it's all I need. Anyway, that's great!!

  7. I'm so glad to hear that you'll have your new phone very soon! And text all you want (up to your 250 messages). Just remember that I also have the 250 message limit. The EnV looks very neat in the photo you've posted. And to think all a phone really needs to do is make and receive calls. (That's what hubby says anyways, especially after he got his Voyager.) But all the extra "stuff" is just so much fun! Enjoy your phone when you get it! :)
