Verizon supports Texas and Louisiana communities affected by recent storms
2024年5月18日 - 7:30AM
To help residents in Texas and Louisiana impacted by the recent
storms and long-expected recovery, Verizon is waiving postpaid
domestic call/text/data usage incurred from May 17 - May 23. This
will bring relief to the thousands of customers who are relying on
their mobile devices more than ever, and especially during this
challenging time.
The waiver applies to all postpaid consumer customers, small
business customers* and Verizon Prepaid customers in the following
Louisiana parishes: Allen, Beauregard, Catahoula and St. John the
Baptist; and the following Texas counties: Harris, Jasper, San
Jacinto and Waller. For prepaid customers using Straight Talk,
Tracfone, Total by Verizon, Simple Mobile, Walmart Family Mobile,
Net10, GoSmart, and Page Plus, we are extending service end dates
to May 23, 2024.
Customers do not have to take any action to take advantage of
the offer. Any overages for those whose billing cycles have already
closed will be automatically credited back.
"We understand the immense challenges our communities are facing
as they work towards recovery, " said Michelle R. Miller, Verizon
Coastal Plains Market President. “At Verizon, we never stop working
for our customers. We want to make this process as seamless as
possible, ensuring our customers can stay connected with their
loved ones and access critical resources."
Due to last night’s severe storms and subsequent power outages,
some customers may be experiencing service interruptions. Verizon
is utilizing all available resources to fully restore service. Our
engineers have already restored more than half of the initially
impacted sites, and are currently working to make necessary repairs
and restore service to the remaining impacted customers.
One hundred percent of Verizon macro cell sites, which provide
large area coverage, have backup battery power and more than 90
percent in Texas and Louisiana have backup generators. While
commercial power is out, Verizon equipment and facilities across
the area are being powered by these batteries and generators.
Refueling efforts are underway to ensure those generators continue
to provide power. Our engineers are confident we have the fuel and
crews we need to keep that operation running 24x7 until that
happens.
*Verizon small business customers include customers with 50
lines or less.
