I'm not sure if this has come up before, but Verizon needs to crack down on partners that do sketchy things to get new sign ups.
Today at around 6 PM, a person claiming to be from Verizon knocked on my door to ask if I have Verizon services. He even had a badge ID with the Verizon logo on it, making it seem like he is a Verizon employee. I already have Verizon services, so I decided to turn the tables and find out if he is really a Verizon employee. I asked him if he works for Verizon and why he couldn't just check in the system if I have service. He stated that he is from Verizon and made some excuse as to why he didn't have a chance to look it up. I asked him again if he actually works for Verizon or if he works for a Verizon partner. He then admitted that he works for a partner. I didn't ask for the name of the company he works for, but this type of practice being done by Verizon partners is incredibly sketchy.
Partners should not claim to be "from Verizon", nor should they wear badges that make it seem like they work for Verizon.
