Verizon Account Suspended Non Payment: Resolve Your Suspension Today

If your Verizon account has been suspended due to non-payment, don't worry, you can resolve the issue today.

The first step is to check your account status online or by calling Verizon's customer service number. You can find this information in the "Verizon Account Suspension: What to Do" section.

To reactivate your account, you'll need to pay any outstanding balance, which can be found in the "Verizon Account Suspension: Reasons and Fees" section. This will also require you to update your payment information to avoid future suspensions.

Verizon typically sends out notifications 7-10 days before an account is suspended, which can be found in the "Verizon Account Suspension: Notification and Timeline" section.

If your Verizon account is suspended due to non-payment, you can expect to lose all services. You won't be able to receive or make calls, send or receive text messages, or connect to the wireless carrier.

Your phone will also have no signal, making it useless for any purpose. This is usually the case if you haven't paid your Verizon bill in a while.

To get your account suspension removed, you'll need to clear all outstanding bills from Verizon. This might take some time, and you may have to wait for days before hearing back from their customer support team.

If you're unable to get your account reinstated after paying your bills, you can use a service like DoNotPay to help you compose and send a customized complaint letter to Verizon. This can put additional pressure on their support team to prioritize your case.

To use DoNotPay's Unban My Account feature, you'll need to:

This will help DoNotPay create a demand letter and send it to Verizon with a two-week reply deadline.

Payment Arrangements can help you avoid collections activity and service interruption by letting Verizon know you're going to be late with payment and that you're taking care of the situation.

You can set up a payment arrangement online for free on the Payment arrangements page in My Verizon, or through the My Verizon app. You can also work with a Customer Service Representative or a Live Chat Representative, but that will cost you $10.

A payment arrangement is based on your account history, and you can usually get an extension of about 2 weeks past your original bill's due date. You can set up a payment arrangement any time you have a balance on your account, either before or after the account becomes past due.

There are two kinds of payment arrangements: Schedule a payment and Promise to pay. With Schedule a payment, you set your payment to be automatically deducted from a credit card, debit card, e-check or ACH payment from your bank account. With Promise to pay, you choose a date to pay us but you don't schedule any automatic payments.

You can cancel your payment arrangement up to 1 day before the payment date. If you cancel, you can set up a new payment arrangement. You can pay off your payment arrangement by manually paying the amount due in any way that Verizon accepts payment.

Here's a summary of the payment arrangement options:

Keep in mind that if you set up a payment arrangement, you will still be charged a late payment fee if your past due balance is greater than $7.

If your Verizon account is suspended due to non-payment, you'll need to take action to get back on track. There are two kinds of payment arrangements available to help you pay off your past due balance.

You can schedule a payment, also known as a future-dated payment, which allows you to set a payment to be automatically deducted from your payment method on a date you choose. This can include debit cards, credit cards, or checks.

To schedule a payment, you can choose to pay part or all of your account balance on a specific date, or you can set up a split arrangement to pay parts of your balance on two different dates.

Alternatively, you can promise to pay, which means you choose a date to pay but don't schedule any automatic payments. This requires you to come back and pay on the date you chose.

You can promise to pay part or all of your account balance by a certain date, or you can promise to pay parts of your balance on two different dates, known as a 2-part promise to pay.

Here are the details on how to make your payment, depending on the type of arrangement you set up:

Keep in mind that if you plan to send a check by mail, be sure to allow enough time for postal mail to ensure it arrives on time.

A late payment fee is still charged to your account any time a past due balance is greater than $7. This fee doesn't stop just because you've set up a payment arrangement.

Late fee charges can be added to your account as early as the day after the original bill's due date. This can happen even if you've made a payment arrangement.

The late fee is charged at the rate of 5% of the balance that wasn't paid by the due date or $7 (whichever is greater). In some cases, the fee may be higher due to state law.

If your unpaid balance is $50, you can expect a late fee of $7 to be charged to your bill each month until you're current. This is because 5% of $50 is less than $7.

In Arizona, the late fee is added if the balance is $10 or greater, which is higher than the standard $7 threshold.
