Verizon to Credit Gulf-Area Customers with 3 Months Service

Oct 16, 2018, 4:14 PM by Eric M. Zeman

Verizon Wireless today said that it will automatically credit its customers in areas impacted by Hurricane Michael for three months of service. The credit will be made for every line on both consumer and business accounts. While the company continues to make repairs to its damaged network, it has set up temporary cell sites for first responders in areas that have little or no service. Verizon said earlier that it has sustained massive damage to its fiber network, which carries traffic from its wireless network across the internet. The company has put up charging stations at some shelters and police/fire stations. Verizon customers can check the company's web site to follow the progress on repairs.

Good

About time a carrier announced such a offer. Won't take long for other carriers to fall in behind.
