Stop with forcing the preloaded game apps. It's a PITA that you force us to go and find these and delete them all. I'm sure its cuz Verizon makes a ton of cash but that's pathetic. Knock it off. But I'm sure I'll continue to see them snuck onto my phone in the future as well. Stop!

My husband has had this phone for a few years and it does not work properly. There are issues with connectivity and tracking (he uses this to calculate his steps).

I had to buy this phone because you sent a broken one to replace my other phone that was broken! Then Rhonda in customer service said you would waive the 50.00 replacement fee because of the length of time we had been with you! You did not! So to return a broken phone cost approximately $235.00plus the new monthly charge for the phone! Not happy with you all after more than 20 years!!!!!
