I was Verizon FIOS customer at one address before September XX 2013. I got a cablecard and a modem. When disconnecting my account I was adivsed that I need to return a cablecard.
I went to the retail Verizon FIOS location, and the clerk in the office advised me to return it from the UPS store instead of waiting in the long line.
So I did. I have the UPS receipt with tracking # and dates.
I received a bill in late October, which stated unpaid charge for unreturned equipment. I called Verizon customer center and I was told it will be taken care of.
Then I receieved another bill in late November for the same charge for the unreturned equpipment. I called Verizon, spent about an hour on the phone, they took my tracking# and said that everything will be taken care of.
Now, today I get my Christmas present from Verizon: a bill form collection agency for the amount originally billed for the unreturned equpment.
What do I do now?

I have the same thing occurring to me right now. I returned the cale card back in April, and I have documented proof from UPS that the package was delivered. It was shipped in the box Verizon provided and I used the shipping label Verizon provided. I just received a bill from Verizon with a $100 charge for an unreturned card. I tried chatting with customer service but they said "It will take approximately 3 to 5 business days for this to be investigated. If we do see that it has been returned, the fee will be removed within 1 to 2 billing cycles. If there are any problems, we will notify you.". This is unacceptable... UPS shows the package was delivered and I want these false charges removed immediately. Thank you.

This issue still has not been resolved. I was given a reference number on 6/16/2014 and was told this would be resolved in 3-5 business days. The erroneous charge is still on my bill. Need this resolved. Thank you.

How do I get someone online to discuss and resolve this right now? My work schedule does not allow me unlimited time to work this... I need it resolved now. Can we get another private support case opened immediately so I can provide the required info again to get this fixed? Frustrated...
