Data Bogs/Stops at 3:30-4:30PM at my home

This happens daily.  I get home from work and go to catch up on things on my phone and for an hour my data is slow or will stop completely.  I called and spoke with VZW on this last year, they blamed the phone.  I now I have new phone and it is still happening.  I truly believe VZW is getting too big for their britches and it is time to consider other options after lifelong loyalty. 

Using Moto Z2Force.  I have restarted and powered the phone all the way down and back up, doesn't fix issue.

prime time & you're not the only one on the phone.

fwiw: about the best you'll see from the network is 5-12mbps.

get wi-fi & your home problems go away.

VZW Hotspot is my WiFi.  Speed tests show that my data is half the speed at my home near a major hospital vs the surrounding area.

nydarter69, getting fast and reliable data is crucial, especially to accomplish your daily activities. The last thing we want is for you to consider other options. Rest assured we value your lifelong loyalty to the company. Aside from the data, what other issues are you encountering (calls/texts)? What recent changes have occurred (software update, new apps, etc.)?

As now, I have received many  open and closed ticket texts from VZW but my situation has not improved as of yet.  I am giving in until the end of the month and then will be looking to switch carriers.

As an update to this problem.  After my last round of calls with Tech Support in early October, my service went back to normal, working well, until yesterday.  I call Tech Support today and am told I am in a Margional Service Area and VZW cannot guarantee me service. 

Bottom line, after over 20 yeas with Verizon, they told me to find another provider.  Unbelievable.  I am now researching other options.

I know how important it is to have the best service, where you need it. We certainly don't want you to consider leaving us. When you called Tech Support, did they say why the sudden downgrade again, after being improved last month? What device to you have, and what plan?

Hi Vanessa.  I spoke with Quentin at the Executive Level.  I am being told that I am in a Variable Service Area and that VZW cannot provide me constant service.  He told me to seek out other providers. This is coming from the upper echelons of Customer Service with VZW.  Crazy, obviously they do not care about being a customer for 20+ years.
