How to change your name with Verizon
Married or divorced and updating your accounts? Here's how Verizon takes a name change, from its own help page.
In person or by phone only. Verizon is one of the few that won't change your name online. Call 1-800-837-4966 or visit, and bring your documents.
Verizon's steps
Call 1-800-Verizon with your account number to change the name after a legal name change.
Have these ready
- A copy of your marriage certificate, divorce decree or court order (most companies ask for one).
- Your updated driver's license or ID, if you have it. Social Security comes first, then the DMV.
- Your account number, and the name the account is in now.
Let Sasha handle the letters
Sasha writes and signs your name change letter for Verizon and every other company on your list, with your certificate attached. It also keeps track of who's done. The checklist is free.
