I recently brought 4 phones over to Verizon from Sprint. I received 4 e-gift cards at $250 each on July 23. I tried to use them yesterday to pay my upcoming bill and to my surprise two of the 4 cards had a ZERO balance. I spent 4 hours on the phone with Verizon but no resolution. I have read in multiple places that Verizon employees actually steal these cards??? Are you kidding me? Back to shopping for a new cell phone provider. This is unbelievable.
