On June 20th I sent the following letter to the complaint department in Lakeland, FL.
Verizon Escalate Department
Attn: Escalated Manager
RE: Account No. XXX
Good Day,
I am writing with disappointment on a situation that I have been dealing with Verizon now for approximately 13 months. I have made numerous phone calls and don’t seem to be getting anywhere.
When I moved in February 2013 to a new address, somehow my Verizon one bill account was split into a Phone Bill account and an internet and Fios bill. In the midst of this three payments were miss applied. One payment has been applied correctly in the amount of $325, but the other two have not and every month it shows that I am $917 in arrears. I have enclosed a spreadsheet of my payments and of the monthly bills and would appreciate if Verizon would do a complete audit of my account so I can see where exactly my payments have been applied. This is disheartening as I just want it cleared up! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at the number above or email at {edited for privacy}.
I have called and chatted a number of times with the billing department, financial department, etc. over the last year and a half and have not gotten ANY response to my letter above. I am VERY frustrated with Verizon and feel like I have been run around in circles and provided ALL of the information necessary to plead my case. YET no one calls me back with an update they just close my claim. Latest claim for the two payments not applied correctly was in October. I chatted with an agent today and she said the claim was closed. Still no call or letter.
I am hearing impaired and at times have difficulty on the phone so I would appreciate a reply via email on the status of this mess!
Thank you,
