Re: Verizon annual upgrade

in the Shop Talk forum

Are you talking about early upgrades? I'm alos a Premier agent and I have not had any problem with upgrades. The only problems I have had are with merit customers that get early upgrades every year instead of every 2 even thou they have a 2 year contract. Are your customers approved for upgrade in Eroes?

Yesterday... Customer: "Jesus would have given me a free phone. It is Christmas ya know...can't you help a brother out?" ME: Sir if Jesus was here I think he would lay hands on your broken phone fixing it good as new. However, since Jesus is not here and there is no insurance on your phone I would be happy to sell you a new phone for $149.99. Customer: Jesus is mad at you! Me: That is nothing new sir this ...

I already work for indirect I just wanted to see how my city/state and company compares against other indirects. I was with corp Airtouch back in the day and I'm not a fan of the corp world.

Verizon Indirect Agents

in the Shop Talk forum

Hey all you Verizon Indirects out there I was wondering what city and state you are from and how many new acts and upgrages you do on average each month. I am from Las Vegas NV and we do around 80-100 new acts and around 30-40 upgrades per month. Also how do you like the company you work for and how long have you been working there? I have been with my co for 3 almost 4 years and my ...

I have sold around 50-60 Q's and I have had 5 returned as defective. That is around 10% defective and I think that is way to high. The 6700 is the better product! Plead with your bosses to get it in :D

Keep in mind that it might be the time of year. I have been with Verizon for the last 4 years and the first 2 or even 3 weeks of November have always been like that for me. The last 10 days have made up for the super slow start to the month. I don't know if it has something to do with Christmas or what but it has happened every year. :wink:

It has been said over and over again that Mystery Shoppers are a total Joke! There does not seem to be any standard that they use and they all seem to be blind! Just like in your case where they say you said things you didn't. WTF??!! I had 2 shopper scores within a couple days of each other at different locations with different secret shoppers. I got a 7% on one and a ...

That makes no sense. If your company does not make comish on an out of state activation why would that make you mad? It means if you do it and give the customer a discount on the equipment your company loses money. If they don't get the comish then you can't pass the savings on to the customer and you have to send them down the road. The only option would be if the customer ...

As a premier verizon agent your store will come up on a CS's computer as a place to send the customer for ANY reason. When your co is all set as a premier you will be able to do warranty exchanges, NE2, flash phones, and so on... I'm sure that most of the time it is the customers fault and they just walk into any store that says verizon or cingular or whatever. But if you ...

It is raining in Vegas. That means nobody is out shopping. People freak out in the rain here. OK so I'm sitting in my empty store watching the rain when I see a guy start running from his car to the shopping center. His cell flys from his pocket. I see the battery bounce off the pavement and the phone skid into a big puddle. The guys stops. Picks up his phone ...

I don't know why some people do that. What is really sad is that both you and I and I'm sure lots of others have had customers like this all over the country. Seems like the feelings of entitlement that these idiot customers have is universal. I wish I had thought of saying, "its magic." Would have been really funny!

Customer just came into the store. She is crying and her face is crazy red :cry: . She says that the phone she just purchased does not work and she paid $200 for it. She is yelling at me through the tears. She says she charged it over night and now it does not work. "Don't you know how long I have been a Verizon customer blah blah blah..." I look at the phone. It is ...

LG is coming out with an update for the Chocaolate (8500) that will enable the speaker phone. My LG rep said it would be ready before the end of Sept. My biggest seller (Verizon) lately has been the Samsung A930. Good phone with all the bells and whistles for pretty cheap. The 9800 is still a great phone. Since I have not heard an eta on the 9900 I'm still pushing the 9800.

We can not do better then Verizon's new every two deal on most phones. Upgrades are not what indirect stores are for. The indirects main purpose is to sign up new lines. When signing up new lines we are able to offer better prices then most corp stores. We can not match the new every two deal most of the time.

We started to have problems like that at the corp store directly across the street from our location. We can waive at each other. Being the manager of my store I just walked across the street and had a face to face with the Corp manager. Everything has been fine since. As I told that MGR we are trying to service the same customers so lets work together. One big happy family here in ...

I had a customer today that was declined. Not a high deposit. Not an action. It just said declined. I have been selling cellular for almost 4 years now and have never seen that before. Has anyone seen that before?
