Verizon (the communications behemoth) apparently has trouble communicating with it's customers.
Final bill charges where supposedly sent via post mail and after 5 months pass and no communication is established it was simply sent to collections. So I become aware of the charges via a ding to my credit report.
Upon going to collections, credit score dropped 100 points... Making a score of 750 (low credit risk) sink to 650 (medium credit risk)... And this occurred to a Verizon customer of nearly 10 years who has a history of paying when aware of charges
Verizon is supposedly a communications company...
If this has happend to you (and i'm certain you're out there; and if not you will be), please do as i will and report this lack of customer service and inproportional detrimant to consumers to the FTC... Likewise, cancel Verizon services and find a company more sensitive to it's customers and worthy of your patronage.

Hi ebaker21,
Were you able to get this issue resolved through Verizon customer support, or do you still require assistance?

Unless Verizon plans to change the process by which they send a piece of mail, assume customers get it, make little effort to make contact via other channels, and then nail peoples credit score for 100 points, then i don't think this will be resolved...
repair my credit and we'll call it even...

I am working with other Verizon customers on the same exact issue. FCC as well as FTC and in the case of CA, CPUC.
Your final bill dept at Verizon, instead of looking up you bill, payments made via your by account # or SS, then sends a bogus fax cover sheet supposedly within three-ten business days to the email of your choice. If you get the phantom email w/cover sheet the printed copy expiration has already passed. It also indicates you need to start over.

I need help. Recently I moved and have always paid my Verizon bills on time for both my home and my cell phone. Then suddenly today I received a notification from a collections company about an unpaid amount. I always pay my bills and have NEVER been informed of this outstanding balance. PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP so I can make this payment and avoid damaging my credit score which I have worked hard on the last 10 years.
