“Incredibly Poor UI/UX and USELESS AI chat bot — They’ve crammed AI everything into this consumer application where it is entirely unnecessary, and it makes the app run impossibly slowly. Click on literally any link within the app or attempt to load any screen within the app and it’ll take ten seconds load all the assets. God forbid you need to update your personal information or view your bill, it’ll be a 15 minute…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Useless — Takes forever to log on, and doesn’t tell you what’s wrong.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“The worst user app — It is a challenging trial to use this app. Very slow to respond to a given request or command.

“App is ok — App overall is ok but the Verizon shine is a complete joke if you’re not there right when the rewards drop you don’t have chance at ever claiming any. Verizon really needs to fix and update its reward program” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Verizon Shine is useless — Verizon decided to add a rewards programs similar to T-Mobile’s except they forgot to make it useful and accessible. The only rewards worth trying for have a very limited number available and release at exactly the same time every day. Even if you happen to log in and attempt to claim a reward on the exact minute it’s released, so are 500,000 other people, and with what I assume is only 100…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Claim now button always disable — Not able to claim any offer as claim now button disabled always No meaning for offer you are giving” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English

“First time I have ever complained about Verizon — The bots are incredibly frustrating and time consuming. They are reluctant to transfer a client to an experienced person. With 3 major issues the last challenge was a reluctant bot. They are bring customer service to a sub optimal level. The tech working with me didn’t seem thrilled. Oh! Well. Eventually we became disconnected and he did not call me back. I am not…” — ★★☆☆☆ · English“Billion dollar company with a dollar bill app — Won’t let me add new payment method despite multiple attempts. Support chat is unavailable in this app. Useless, but that’s to be expected from these mega corporations” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Need More Real People Stop with AI — I have so much trouble with this automated system and I would much rather you guys be more involved with your customers rather than letting AI do things, setting up these payments through the automated system fails constantly and I believe my phone service will be fine until the day that I scheduled and I randomly have my phone service cut off. After paying a partial payment and…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English

“Constant login — Why is this the only app I use that has constant login every time I open it? So annoying.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Unable to support a returning customer — After a 30 year relationship I switched to a competitor company. But after moving to the mountains needed to return for coverage. I’m unable to access my new account, new address, new equipment or set up auto payments…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Broken/Old sign in — Their auth is so old that they use physical mail as their password reset system.

“Buggy — Found the app difficult to use when setting up a router. The “home” section didn’t offer any information, and when I tried to access router info from the lobby it had me download another app. Also struggled to add credit card info because text was blocking the submit button.” — ★★☆☆☆ · English“Incredibly Poor UI/UX and USELESS AI chat bot — They’ve crammed AI everything into this consumer application where it is entirely unnecessary, and it makes the app run impossibly slowly.

Frustrating to use” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English
