Can I Cancel My Current Plan While I'm Overseas?

[MOCONNOR54491]

I need to cancel my number from Australia. Ive been searching for hours on your website how to do this. Should not be too tough. Can I do this online? I already have a service over here in Australia so theres no need to try and pitch me that you have great overseas options. I just need to cancel my number. Gracias.

You cannot cancel online.  You need to either call customer service or visit a store.  You probably should have done this before you left the USA.

Verizon has an international support number.  That is likely your only option now.  See this link and click on the Support tab in it. International Travel Plan | Verizon Wireless

Hello MOCONNOR54491,

The last thing we want is for you to leave our family. Why are you wanting to cancel your service?

Verizon are monopolist scum. Their international support numbers are inactive. Send them a message on twitter as proof that you tried to cancel and then file a complain with the FTC.

We want you to be able to connect to our international support to get this line disconnected. You can try our main number 1-908-559-4899 to contact our international support, or contact our toll-free number from Australia at, 0011 800-50050099. Let us know if these numbers work for you.
