Nancy is the best! She solves all my issues and has my phone up in running in minutes. Highly recommend this store and Nancy

Sit on hold. It's better than here. Waited 1 hour and 20 min to upgrade a phone. We were told that wait was "maybe 25 min to 35". I watched the manager go to the back for 15 minutes right before it was our turn. It was a busy day. But communication is free. read more

Great job today by Brian at this Verizon location. Sometimes I feel like we get stuck in the phone store forever but he helped us upgrade my dad's phone in less than an hour- very efficient and nice! read more

Horrible business. Long waits due to employees chit chatting with each other versus helping customers.

I can't emphasize enough how amazing Brian is. I dread coming into the verizon store but Brian made everything so easy. Brian is patient, kind and very knowledgeable. He helped my family get new phones and put us on a new plan and we saved money. Thank you Brian read more

Jason (manager) is simply awesome. Does it ALL. Superior customer service and knowledge of everything. Go to this store.

I had to come to this store for an issue that the other stores were extremely unhelpful and even wanting to try to help me resolve it. I came here and Matt was so great and patient and kept trying and didn't rush till he helped find a solution !!! Great customer service !!!!! Thanks Matt !! read more

I hope that someone in management at this store spends some appropriate time today adressing the behavior of your employee John Rivera. I will not be shopping at your store again. I was treated so poorly by this employee I am honestly appalled. You are doing your own business a serious disservice by having employees of this caliber working here. read more

Customer service is excellent need good service come to this Verizon very fast very nice

I have been with Verizon for twenty-one years, but never have I received service to compare with the service I received Friday and todayfrom Matt Bonikowski. He was patient, competent warm and concerned in handling my problem which regarded my daughter who has a two-year old baby. He could not have treated me better had she been the baby's father. He behaved with such compassion that I resolved to stay with Verizon for the next twenty-one years. read more

I had a great experience with Benny! He made the process so smooth and is very professional! Benny is the man! Thank you Verizon & Benny!!!

At a time where nothing is easy, i I cannot say enough great things about Brandon and how easy it was to switch over 4 lines and purchase 4 new phones with Verizon. He walked us through all the options, anticipated our needs and worked with us to get us the plan that would best support our family. Brandon is kind, friendly, polite and professional in every way and I congratulate every one that gets to work with him. read more

Very rude and poor customer service, I walked in to ask if I have the right Account number and PIN number, and the person who was in charge of greeting customers today, acted like he just wanted me out of the store, I don't know maybe he didn't like my accent!!! read more

Benny at Verizon store at this location was a HUGE help to us picking our new phones. His patience and knowledge was key for us walking out with exact items we needed to make our new phones work. I even asked last minute to change my phone's color and he reprocessed the new phone with me. Big thanks Benny! read more

We came here for activating a new phone last year, and the agent was very quick, professional and helpful. This year we came to active another line, and we were very happy with agent Brandon. He was honest, extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you Brandon. read more

Was struggling to change my number online until I got a hold of technical support who helped uncovered my hurdles and made sure the whole process went over smoothly. Thank you so much Desiree, I appreciate your patience, you're the best! read more

Horrible experience coming here on 3/29. I purchased a defective iPhone 12 Pro from this store on 3/28. Phone tech support told me I needed to return the phone and get it replaced. So I go back to this location and there's a wait to be helped out. The male employee at the front door quoted me 15-20 minutes and to wait outside. The wait took 1 hour and when they finally called my name, I was told "nevermind, sorry, someone else is in front of you". I was eventually helped by Jessica who had a phone waiting for me at the counter. She barely spoke to me, typed on her iPad, and then said that they couldn't replace my phone because they didn't have any more of that same model in stock. I asked about the phone on the counter and she said it wasn't the right model. I had to go to a different location if I wanted a replacement. AN HOUR WASTED and the customer service was awful. Luckily, Diz at the Tustin District location was much friendlier and actually explained what was wrong with the original device. I didn't have to wait to be seen. I'll be leaving a good review for them. I will not be coming back to this Irvine location and will stick to Tustin instead, I recommend everyone do the same. Also test your iPhone in store before heading out. There are apparently many defective iPhone 12 Pros with microphone issues specifically being sold from Verizon (quick Google search). read more

Snoop doggs cousin? Wrong! Its Randy Yall! Randy was a super understanding, super positive store associate that kept me laughing the whole time. The transaction was so much more smoothly with Randy, i think i spent about 30 min setting up a business account but the other hour was just me hanging out at the store unbothered. I was so amazed at how fast i was able to get my new iphone and watch. He even told me about the current promotions and discounts because usually you have to ask ;) This is my official store when i need to go back to Verizon...for anything. read more

Pretty surprised at the 2.5 star rating of this Verizon store. I've been coming to this location for the last decade and have always had a positive experience. Last Monday, I visited this store on my lunch break to upgrade my iPhone 6. I only had about 45 minutes, so I figured it might be a bit of a squeeze. Fortunately, Adam was very helpful in pulling up my account, assessing the various options, and upgrading me to the iPhone XR. Everything was crystal clear from the get go. I was in and out with a new phone in approximately 15 minutes. Helpful tip - parking at this plaza can be a bit of a headache. I recommend parking in the free two-hour visitor lot next to LA Fitness and walking across. read more

I upgraded my phone a month ago from IPhone X to IPhone pro max, and customer service was not good. The guy outside just handed me the phone and that's it. When I asked him how to activate it he told me to YouTube it. And didn't explain how I'd to the trade in when I asked. It was a white man with red hair I believe. So rude. Literally had to call customer service for help. read more

August 24th Friday during the middle of my business hours I came into the store because my phone battery was zapped on my iPhone 6s Plus. Immediately as I came in a lady named Lucy was at the front to greet me. I explain to her my issue and she immediately tells me that my 6s plus phone is done, let's get you a new phone. She begins to sell me on a buy one get one free deal. Long story short there are side conversations not even about my issue, and I end up walking out of the store with a brand new line not needed on my plan two brand new iPhones and a confused look on my face. I go to the Verizon wireless Tustin legacy location to get a second opinion. Sergio there helps me and recommends that to pay the last remaining month of the payment plan I have for my original 6s plus phone line. Which I do and upgrade the phone. Immediately solving my need. Which Lucy from the other store totally sold me two phones and did not present me an efficient option. It does not end there! There is a floating manager by the name of Cristina this is more awful then my experience with Lucy. To put things in context, Sergio at the Tustin Verizon wireless store recommends me to return to the original store to bring back the two brand new iPhones I did not need as to not get charged a restocking fee. This is where Cristina (a floating manager) comes into play. When I originally went to Tustin to get a second opinion she was there! Not only did she hear of my situation, when I went back to the Verizon wireless Irvine Michaelson location she was there too!! I go in there explain to her the situation, she is not understanding AT ALL. She charges me the restocking fee I was told I did not have to pay. Awful customer service. In closing I do not recommend coming to the Irvine store. I do not recommend working with Lucy, and I do not recommend ever working with Cristina. I will be writing a letter to Verizon Executive relations about the incident specifically on my experience with Lucy and Cristina. Sorry to drag Sergio into because he really helped me out. read more

Benny and Jason, the manager, we're beyond amazing. This was my 4th time coming in in 36 hours because the other associates didn't follow directions last time and then left me hanging. Benny recognized me and offered to help me out right away. He was patient and kind and I felt like he actually cared. Jason was also extremely kind and did in 2 seconds what the other manager could not. If you go to this location, please ask for them. They are knowledgeable and more important, they actually care about their customers. Thank you both for getting rid of my headache!! read more

Manager 'AJ' at the Verizon store on Michelson and Jamboree was outstanding. Professional, courteous and very patient. Thank you, AJ read more

Horrible customer service. The girl that helped me was barely present. She offered her contact info 'in case I ever have questions or need help.' it's all BS. When she messed up my plan and I emailed her about she was unresponsive after several attempts. I had to go to the Verizon store in Aliso to fix her mess. Fortunately BEN over there was excellent, and got me set up right. Stay away from this store if you can. read more

I called ahead to make sure the phone I wanted was in stock. When I arrived Lucy helped me and got me on my way within 15min. I really appreciated how knowledgeable she was and she upsold me on the things I needed not any superfluous items. If Lucy is there I highly recommend her! She so speaks mandarin. read more

I was a little hesitant to come to this location due to the reviews I've read but I was pleasantly surprised! Lucy helped me upgrade my phone, helped with my cloud storage and even monitoring the backup. I'm not super tech savvy so having someone who could calmly help me was amazing. I was able to get the new iPhone 13, and it works perfectly! I could see why some reviews say the others were rude but they weren't they're just very bluntly spoken and efficient with their job. All and all I couldn't be happier with my service thank you so much Lucy!!! read more

Did I ever think I'd be giving a wireless company 5 stars? NEVER! But today, the young woman who helped me was absolutely STELLAR. I let her know my requirements and she wrote the data table for me on paper so I could understand it (without me even asking for this! The empathy / customer service skill of this employee was incredible). She had me out of there with a solution super quickly. I just wish I got her name so that I could write it here, but I'm hopeful that management already knows who I am speaking about and values her greatly. Keep up the great talent and improved customer policy empowering your employees to keep creating amazing customer experiences like I just had. She even welcomed me back to Verizon verbally which was a nice touch. read more

Imagine the most perfect sales rep; the kind you're sure couldn't possibly exist... She's real and her name is Tamara Nicole. My friend took a huge leap forward in technology today and was on the fence when we arrived. The wait was minimal and Tamara "got it." Items needed were identified quickly, she was smart enough to deftly fulfill our account needs, and her add-on upsell (iPad) was successful because of her professionalism and sincere warmth. My observation of the store as a whole was positive as well. The wait time remained less than 15 minutes at peak hour and the entire well-staffed store team hustled. I'm a believer! read more

Verizon - Antique vs. Modern... iPhone wins! - Mobile Phones Near Me - Irvine, California

The location of the store is convenient as it is close to my office but the parking lot is ALWAYS FULL. I mean, always. Good GAWD. Someone needs to figure out the parking situation because that is the only reason why I avoid this place as much as possible. I knew there was Verizon store here and I also knew it was going to take awhile so I had to come here. It was your ordinary visit at the Verizon store. I had to return 3 times because of the service was not 100% complete. The total of this review would be just two stars if it hadn't been for the service rep MICHAEL. I had a couple different people that day, having had to return so many times but no one else was as helpful as him therefore earning this store one more star! He was polite, helpful and not condescending, as most service people tend to be. Despite the issues, the day-long visit, the waiting...all can be overlooked when you have great customer service. I hope he gets promoted so he can train other reps to be so helpful and accomodating. read more

Bad Service The workers couldn't help me. For every question I asked, they told me to call this number they handed out to me to answer the questions they couldn't answer. They also gave me a pamphlet, I found the answers on the pamphlet but as an employee, they should know the basic facts. read more

This Verizon store is much better that the ones I have visited in N OC. They were well staffed and had no wait on weekday night. I'm use to signing in and having to hang around my local store. They were helpful in facilitating a phone transfer. No hassles, no pushy upgrading or attempts to sell me cases, etc. Only challenge with this location, is the parking. I know that it is beyond the stores control, but this is a VERY BUSY area and parking is tough. You'll probably spend more time looking for a spot, than you will in the actual store. read more

Bad customer service: We went in to get help unlocking the number to move to a different carrier. The rep was very rude while assisting us. We were okay with calling the number provided and doing this on our own, but the attitude of one of the employee was just unacceptable. read more

Came to this store few days ago, came in looking for a new iPhone and to sign up with there service, I appreciate how quickly everything was serviced and I was out the door with a new iPhone in less than 10 mins ... so why the 1 star? To confirm, you can read (Archie d) review When I walked out the door I noticed without consent or explanation, the sales rep added the $11 total protection plan, without telling me, it's obvious there doing this at this store for extra commission, it's shady business, to the sales rep, learn how to sell bro instead of being shady and adding it on without telling people. Also any other business when asking for your social will always let you know there either going to run credit on a soft or hard pull. Nothing mentioned if they go to this length to be this shady what else are they doing? read more

Wow... I don't even know where to start. Customer was yelling at one employee while we were waiting on our chatty/gossip employee to let us know what was happening to my dad's account. This place blows. Call if you can instead of coming in. On top of it staff turned on clubbing music full blast at 10:30 am lol. Such a joke. read more

What's the point of having a Verizon Corporate store if they can't help you with canceling a line on your account? I had an appointment at 5:00 pm and arrived 30 minutes early only for the employee hand me a phone number sheet. I have two lines on my IPhone 12 and wanted to cancel one line and purchase an IPhone 13. Do I have to call to purchase a new phone too? read more

Came into the store about a month ago to purchase a new phone. Explored a bunch of different models and took a lot of time. I knew that I was going to take a while, so I told the sales associate to feel free to deal with other customers (which he did). After I finally made my selection (30 minutes or so), the sales person promptly came back over to help me with the purchase. When he tried to help me pick a phone, he didn't know the specifications of all of the phones (specifically, the water resistant ratings of various phones, the amount of RAM, and whether or not the G6 was 32/64GB - not a big deal because I did most of my research online before coming into the store to actually play around with the phones). He asked if I wanted accessories or any phone attachments, and I told him I never buy accessories in the store or get any add-ons like insurance. Dude rings me up after I ask him a couple more questions. I ask him if I can buy the phone outright instead of the 24 installments, and he says that he has to ring it up under installments, but that I can call in after July 1st and pay off the total. Okay, annoying, but that's fine, I get Verizon's logic and why they want to force people into the installments. Can't blame the salesperson for Verizon being an example of a horrible corporation. Left the store confident in my purchase, and happy with the customer service overall. Would have given this a four star review if this was the end of the story. So why the one star review? It's after the first, so it's time to pay off the phone. I call into Verizon, but before I do, I check my online bill. And what do I notice? Dude who rang me up added the insurance plan onto my line WITHOUT asking me. Now, I know some of you may think this was unintentional or a simple mistake. Guy was clearly a Verizon employee for a while and knew the ins and outs. And he knew that I wasn't going to purchase the insurance plan. Obviously, they are incentivized to sell these plans for their own pockets and because their managers force them to do so. But come on, dude... you really think I'm not going to notice that you added something onto my plan without my permission? FOH. And moreover, how many other people has this particular sales associate cheated out of $11/month? Moral of the story: check your bill when dealing with corporations like this. Shady business practices from a multinational corporation with billions in profits. read more

Came to this location today to get my new phone after the guy at the Costa Mesa location lied and said no stores in Orange County had it. And I spoke with Andrew on the phone and he held it for me till I got there! Was in and out in 20 minutes ! After spending an hour at the last place to leave with no phone. They even gave us water bottles here!! Only thing I don't like, which I know is their job but it's incredibly annoying how much everyone try's to sell add on products. But other than this great service !! And so happy with my new phone read more

Layne was a lot of help and I really appreciate on how fast we were help and honest he was with us definitely be back if I need to go to a Verizon store again read more
