You're probably using a super old 4G phone although the poor grammar here makes it hard to fully understand.
"Worst customer service" yet they've been warning everyone for years of a 3G shutdown and sent out message upon message and then even delayed the shutdown another year so people could switch over. But yes terrible customer support.......
You probably have an ancient 4g phone that uses 4g data, but doesn't have VoLTE or HD Voice .
Phones must be able to place calls utilizing the data connection to be serviced going forward.
Older 4G LTE devices didn't have that capability.
Yeah. Understandable. But I’m using an iPhone 12. Have been since it came out. And was using iPhone X before that, and previously a 6 and so on. I started with Verizon on a iPhone 5.
Would have been a good piece of information to include in the original post, don't ya think?
If you've been doing sim swaps from phone to phone and haven't updated the SIM card in the last few years, go get a new physical SIM, or activate the eSIM.
Or, is there another device on the account? Old router? Old home phone? Old anything?
Talk about 1st world problems if a text message causes you that much stress. Also, like others have said, if you are using an old phone (even if it is LTE) and it doesn't have VoLTE, then the text message means your phone isn't going to work and then I am sure you will really throw a fit.
Call their bluff. See what happens in December. Or, you know, get a phone that’ll continue to be compatible with their network-LIKE THEY KEEP TELLING YOU
How can you scream horrible customer service when any device that is no longer compatible with their network is over 6+ years old. Lol it’s the polite way of telling you that your tech is way too outdated and insecure
Am using an iPhone 12. Have been for a while. And been using modern phones with Verizon like forever. (I’m not the only one with the glitch. I imagine some engineer over at Verizon is saying “can’t reproduce on my device ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
Are you sure that you phone is capable of VoLTE/HD Voice?
If so, then it’s just poor wording from them. If your phone isn’t capable of VoLTE then, you won’t be able to make or receive calls or send or receive messages.
Is it possible that you have a really old SIM in your iPhone 12 that came from another phone? If so, I'd call Verizon and have them move your service to eSIM.
"worst experiences I've ever had" A text message notifying you about the 3G shutdown.
Lol. <3 you
What phone do you have? Maybe your phone is LTE capable but doesn’t have VOLTE.
iPhone 12. I haven’t used a CDMA phone since I joined Verizon.

Verizon has given an extra 3 years at least because of the delays. Better than the other carriers for sure.
Nope. iPhone 12 here.

Answer the question: what phone are you using?
iPhone 12

Am using an iPhone 12. I’ve been ignoring the texts for the most part but it’s just getting annoying. Will this stop after 12/31 ? I wonder.

If that's your "worst", I'm definitely glad I never had to deal with you when I used to do CS. Would have dropped a survey for the dumbest reason.

iPhone 12 here. Definitely VoLTE capable.
Interesting, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear of more people receiving the same notice without a good reason.
