Bundle renew online mess -- BEWARE of the BUG

[reltz]

Check this out...  

Look at "Your New Price" (middle) indicates $89.99 per month for months 2 - 24.

Look at "Your cart" (right) indicates $109.99 per month for months 2- 24.

Cusomter service acknowledges the bug but can't help me.   I am very annoyed and pondering my options to avoid my bill increasing by $30 per month

I had the exact same problem.  Our price went from $122 with our previous bundle to over $163 under the new bundle.  The online order form is nothing more than a scam.  I am very close to switching to Optimum.

I get a similar problem when clicking on Renew. Verizon Triple Play (Extreme HD, Internet 15/5, Digital Voice) for $109.99/mo in big white text in a red box.  Then, my cart says "Total 1st Month Price $109.99" and "Monthly price month 2-24=$129.99".   It would seem to me that $109.99/mo is false advertising, no?  Also, for some reason, it says my bundle also includes Showtime and HBO, neither of which I have or want.  I cannot figure out how to get rid of these bundles.

I had the same problem and spent over an hour on chat with verizon including with manager who failed to understand the problem. I kept the transcript hoping someone would contact me to resolve the concern, but that hasn't happened over 5 days later.  I was very frustrated and even got cut off my the representatives.   This is clearly false advertising, and we customers don't deserve to be treated like this!

I just went online just now to try the system again, and the same deception occurs.  Clicking on the icon "See Price Details" a secondary window opens up and provides the price breakdown showing one price for months 1-12 and a 2nd price for months 13-24.  But then when I add the package to my cart, the price breakdown over the 2 years is completely different, showing one price for the 1st month, a 2nd price for months 2-12, and a third price for months 13-24...and the total cost over the 2 years is $110 MORE compared to what I was led to believe on the previous page..  When I chatted 5 days ago with Ryan and Floor Manager Sandrino, I was told it was "some unusual error on the order page".... Well it appears that that error still exists and continues to provide false and deceptive information.

I just called in a disconnect tonight to end the insanity.   Over the course of 1 week, I have been quoted internet prices of  $89.99 and $109.99 (bogus bugs) and $129.99 (final order trick price.)  On the phone a few days ago, I was quoted $89.99 but today it was $109.99.

The same thing happened to me 1 hr ago! I tried to renew my bundle (extreme HD, internet 15Mbps and voice) and the price showed 69.99/mo with month 1-2 $69.99, month 3-12 $89.99 and month 13-24 $109.99. When I add to cart, it showed $89.99/mo for months 1-2 and $109.99/mo for months 3-24.

Customer service assured me that this is the actual price and pressured me to renew. I did and now I regret.

This is clearly false adveritising!!

So what do you do in this situation? I am coming from Europe and these things Verizon is doing are unthinkable because of high consumer protection. So to me this is just incredible.

I am also trying to renew my contract. When i compate the old contract with the one proposed by Verizon they look the same (79.99$). But 79.99 in the new contract is valid for month 1 only, where I would pay 89.99 for months 2-24. But when I put the new bundle in chart then the price for month 1 is 79.99, for months 2-12 89.99 and for months 13-24 it is 94.99. Incredible...

Since we haven't heard back from you or have received a form submission as requested on your private support case, it appears assistance is no longer required. If you need any future help with your Verizon service, please make a post here on the forums so we can assist.
