08 Octobre 2020 - 7:25PM
Talk/Text/Data offer
For our consumer and small business customers* in the path of
Hurricane Delta, beginning Friday, October 9 through Thursday,
October 15, Verizon is providing unlimited calling, texting and
data to those who reside in the following parishes:
Louisiana: Acadia, Allen, Avoyelles, Calcasieu,
Cameron, Evangeline, Iberia, Jefferson Davis, Lafayette, Rapides,
St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, Vermilion
Our Verizon Response team is available 24/7 to coordinate with
first responders. We are mobilizing charging stations, devices,
special equipment, emergency vehicles and more to support local,
state and federal agencies across the US. More public safety
professionals rely on Verizon than any other network. During times
of crisis, we provide network priority and preemption for first
responders at no cost to public safety agencies. This gives first
responders access to the network when they need it. Additionally,
when disaster strikes, the Verizon Response Team (VRT) is available
24/7 365 days a year to coordinate with first responders to provide
essential technologies during a crisis.
Verizon retail stores may be closed or have reduced hours due to
the storm. You can find the nearest one that’s open by visiting:

Here’s a quote you can use from our
South Central Region Consumer Vice
President:
“Our hearts go out to Louisiana residents bearing the brunt of
this year’s relentless hurricane season,” said Michelle Miller,
Verizon Consumer Vice President. “While it certainly is exhausting
for those living there, rest assured Verizon is here for you both
with reliable connectivity and unlimited calling, texting and data,
so you can focus on the things that matter most - keeping you and
your family safe.”
Health of the Network
The strength, reliability and strong performance of our network
continues to be essential to our customers during these times and
our teams have been preparing for Hurricane Delta as it moves
towards the Gulf Coast with the same tireless dedication and
commitment to reliable communications.
Network preparations include:
- Fixed and mobile generators are being topped off and run to
ensure readiness
- Generator fuel is being pre-positioned for refueling
post-event
- Mobile network assets are being checked and positioned for
deployment
- A network moratorium on non-essential maintenance, upgrades or
changes is in effect in areas along the Gulf Coast.
