Not worth it
After switching to Verizon from T-Mobile, it took three and a half days to get our new phones fully set up — after they already arrived three days late. We paid extra for overnight delivery, which ended up being completely pointless. It took hours just to reach someone by phone to address the setup issues, and when we finally did, they were unable to resolve the problem. We were told a technician would call us the following day, but that call never happened. Assuming an in-person visit would finally solve things, we went to the nearest Verizon store, only to be told they could not help with account issues or phone installations. Despite having multiple Verizon stores in surrounding towns, we were directed to the Amazon Corporate Center over an hour away. After spending three hours there, the issue was only partially resolved, and we were told it could take another 24 hours for iMessage to start working. On top of all of this, service throughout Maine has been extremely inconsistent — even in downtown areas, coverage is hit or miss. Overall, this was an extremely frustrating and time-consuming experience, especially for a service that is marketed as premium.
