Our bill increased by $45 without warning when our 2-year contract expired. I signed up for a new contract the next day, but Verizon refused to refund the overcharge, as I'll call it. They thanked me for 4 years of customer loyalty, but where is their loyalty to the customer? This felt like theft and is bad for business. They could have easily sent a reminder that the old contract was about to expire, or they could have refunded the overcharge when I addressed the matter so quickly. This is not about the money but the business relationship. I will even be getting a $100 gift card with the new contract, but it comes with a bad taste. I would rather enjoy a loyal business than a $55 credit. Verizon, you should reconsider your behavior. Future competition may easily draw my business because of this.
