Prep Steps Before Calling Verizon Customer Support

Having your account information ready can shave minutes off your call and help the agent zero in on your issue more quickly. Make sure to collect these details ahead of time for an effortless support experience:

Your Verizon customer service agent will ask for your Account ID and 4-digit security code (if you’ve set one). Your account ID can be found at the top of your bill or under ‘Account Overview’ in the My Verizon app. You can also manage and reset your code in the app’s security settings.

You will be asked to provide your primary phone number listed at the top of your Verizon bill.

Your Verizon customer service representative may ask you to share the last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN) for security verification (if applicable).

Your Verizon customer service representative may ask you to share the last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN) for security verification (if applicable).

Having your device model and serial number (IMEI), service type (Fios, 5G), and Wi-Fi network name (SSID) on hand can save a lot of time when reporting a technical, network, or device-related issue.

Knowing your payment method and keeping your most recent bill nearby can help clarify any billing-related queries with ease.

Saving your support ticket number can help you track previous complaints, upgrades, and change requests while ensuring a faster follow-up on the call.
