Verizon outage credit steps
Use Verizon network outage FAQs for this Verizon outage credit workflow, and save the resulting confirmation or case reference.
Confirm a network outage
Sign in to My Verizon and look for a Network Notification or use Check network status. Weak coverage or a device problem is not the same as a network outage.
Record the affected period
Save the start and restoration times, affected lines or Home Internet service, location, and any Verizon outage notice.
Contact Verizon within 180 days
Use Verizon chat or support and ask for the network-outage credit tied to the documented event.
Check the next bill
Save the case number and review the next statement for the promised adjustment. Follow up with the same timeline if it is missing.
Choose the correct Verizon path
For Verizon, the purchase channel, account type, or event determines which outage credit path applies.
Standard monthly mobile plan
The published more-than-24-hours and 180-day rule applies to this plan type.
Fios or business service
Use the applicable service agreement or support team; do not assume the wireless rule applies.
Weak signal or device issue
Complete troubleshooting first because Verizon distinguishes these from a network outage.
Event-specific credit
Use the dedicated event notice if Verizon publishes a separate eligibility or redemption process.
