Returned Router to Verizon...now in collections!!!!

I canceled Verizon Fios internet service in August because the area I moved to did not offer the service.  I received a pre-paid label to return the router, which I did in early September.  It was dropped off at a UPS store in Dunedin, Florida; unfortunately I did not obtain a receipt or copy down the tracking number as I did not think it would be necessary since the label was provided by Verizon (of course, now I'm wishing I had).  I contacted Verizon via online chat yesterday and was told not to worry as it can take up to 2 billing cycles to show that equipment has been returned.  Today I received in the mail a letter from a collections agency asking for almost $100 for the router.  This is unacceptable!  I would like for this issue to be resolved immediately.
