Returned Equipment Fraud

listmaker

Like everyone else, I returned Verizon's equipment in THEIR box with THEIR prepaid label. And like everyone else here, Verizon claims they received the Wireless Router but didn't receive the Video Media Server and threatens to charge me $600. Be my guest, Verizon! I have the recept showing the box weighed 10# 8oz. Surely just a router wouldn't weigh that much! According to the postmaster, these returns aren't even handled by the post office. A "third party" picks them up. In the email Verizon sent me they don't give a phone number to call and when I called the number on my bill, they knew nothing about any equipment return problem. I have no intentions of paying Verizon and refuse to spend any more time trying to solve a problem that they obviously have with their "third party".
