My parents moved a lot after I left, so I don't really have a family home to return to. But Harry went to the home that he grew up in. The RF has many properties that have been in the family for centuries. I know he misses them, the houses and the traditions that go with them. Even if he wasn't royal, he spent his life in a country with culture and customs that he's been away from for a while now. What was it like for him to experience all that nostalgia for an hour and then have to go back to the isolating and unfamiliar setting in California? I bet it was excruciating.

So I was wrong, I had the phone maybe 4 years. I'd had my own separate Verizon account for 6 years after my divorce, but had been on a family plan with my spouse for decades. I had previously had no issues with my Verizon service, but I needed to cut some corners with my bills so I decided to move to Mint mobile.

I followed the instructions exactly, including double checking that the phone was unlocked before starting. I successfully ported the number out to Mint, but then when it was time to install the eSIM, the phone was mysteriously locked by Verizon.

After three unsuccessful hours long phone calls (which were a journey into the absurd with the rep contradicting themself repeatedly), I posted here trying to reach Verizon another way. It worked and they sent me a chat link. I also got some good advice from you including making sure my number was not blacklisted, and it was not. The chat was equally pointless and they told me it would take 4 days to resolve. 4 days without texts or calls, even connected to WiFi. I use my phone for work, so this was unacceptable. And yes, I checked with Mint mobile as well, but the ball was in Verizon's court.

I had no choice but to purchase a new phone, again, while bills are tight. With the new phone, the eSIM was successful and I was back in business. After the 4 days, Verizon told me that the ticket was not resolved. Great, thanks. They literally made a perfectly good device worthless while admitting it was their fault (in the chat). How is this legal?

With prices going up, I decided to switch service providers to save money. I had nearly completed the switch to the new provider, but I couldn't install the eSIM because the phone was locked... despite me specifically confirming that it was unlocked before beginning. Now I can't access my new provider AND I am completely unable to even still use Verizon service despite still being a paying customer.

I immediately called tech support and was on and off hold for two hours. They said they would send an email, but I didn't get one. I called back and they said that the case number I referenced was showing as resolved. This feels like a targeted attempt to prevent me from switching service providers. How did the phone mysteriously lock and why does it take so long to unlock it? They keep telling me I don't need to call back, but my son is traveling internationally alone and I cannot receive or make calls or texts! I also use my phone for work. This is a nightmare.
