Reconnect,take a pen and paper, they may assign you a new account number, log everything down, and give it a few days for them to expedite and work the bugs out. This is rather common on new accounts with Verizon screwing up, on their end.xchopp wrote:I phoned car-net and was told to press the 'I' car-net button in the car, wait for a while, and try again. Pressing the button did connect a call (cancelled before anyone answered); hopefully the kinks will be worked out and the car will be reporting range etc. via the app shortly.
I can relate... car is new, give it a week, push the button again on the Inet, and speak to someone via your infotainment center. They may reset, they may issue you a new account number, it might be something on Verizon's end, just ask them to expedite it. Take notes, log your numbers, passwords and pin numbers and save them somewhere besides on your phone.xchopp wrote:Thanks Joules. If they want my $17.99/mo when the free part expires, they will have to do better than this. It really ought to be reliable.
are you in a bad Verizon Area? Go to sensorly.com and check it.GeoffB wrote:Trying to use Car Net to monitor charging and start air con on my new Golf GTE. Service is intermittent at best, with app freezing and various fault messages re failed connection. Have emailed VW, but they haven't replied. Coming to the conclusion that it is a crap system. Any advice welcomed.
If he has a GTE, he must be in Europe. They use a completely different network back end. I thought I read that VW in-sourced the servers at the last major update. The American network is outsourced to Verizon Telematics, but I believe that VW also took over the app development.forbin404 wrote:are you in a bad Verizon Area?
