FirstNet allows roaming on Verizon now?

In the area where I work, FirstNet/AT&T have very weak service. This evening I noticed that I surprisingly had full service in my office, but it was LTE. Then I noticed I was roaming on Verizon. Verizon does have a 5G/LTE small cell on our building.

Is this just a one off “glitch” with my phone allowing me to connect to Verizon or is this something permanent? Very interesting to say the least for me.

FirstNet roaming on VZW

(Repost without my phone number)

Saw the other post about roaming on Verizon, so I figured I’d test myself. My FN line is Extended Primary Subscriber Paid. Was able to manually select VZW and it works just fine. While I could select T-Mobile, it showed no service/sos only. Testing conducted in Harrisonburg, Virginia.

There’s an area I routinely frequent that has VZW and T-Mobile but no FN/AT&T. Will see if it automatically roams to VZW next time I’m go.

Anyone else having an issue with recertification?

I switched my 2 non FirstNet lines to the new consumer plans and noticed I do not have the FirstNet and family discount. I called FirstNet to fix this and they told me I need to re-certify (I did not receive an email telling me to do this), I go to the website and it auto certified me. On the reps end it did not re-rectify me. And then the rep let me know their system is having issues. My discounts have not been applied for a month and have been charged the full amount.

Is anyone else going through this? Seriously considering just moving off of FirstNet…
