i do not understand verizon's business approach

I have been a Verizon customer since 1999, I currently have 3 smart phones, one regular phone and a tablet in my plan.  in January I eliminated a line, but in april  they put it back on, and I did not notice it until now.  they said that I only suspended it, which is not correct, I had it done in the store, not online.  I have had an unbelievably busy year with my business and didn't notice what had happened, so $199.00 later I had it eliminated once again.  But, they would not take any charges off past 3 months, so I am stuck with roughly $109.00.  the lady that I talked to was very understanding, very helpful, and very polite, but her supervisor would not budge.  So, I very politely told her to end my service at the end of the billing cycle, and to tell her boss that Verizon is losing $3,120.00 per year (before taxes and fees, so that is all money in their pocket) for as long as they are going to remain in business and while I am  alive, all over $109.00.  they said that they were sorry to hear that.  and that was it.  wow!!! I may be bullheaded, but in my business the customer is always right, unless they are trying to scam me.  I went back through all of my bills and showed them that there was never a call or text sent from the phone, ever.  I don't see how they will remain in business if they can't show a little loyalty to a 14 year customer

Maybe they charge everyone else so much that they can afford to behave that poorly. If you can prove that you eliminated that line, it sounds like a call to the State Attorney General's Office may be in order. Sad that any customer would be treated that way. Smiley Sad

Um....you get a receipt for each and every transaction. I bet it shows suspended. And you would see suspended online as well.

The line would also still be on the bill even while suspended at $0, but you would still see the mobile number itemized on the bill. It's a hard lesson, but the moral of the story is, look at your bill every month!
