I switched to Verizon wireless the beginning of December and I brought (2) two phones over and purchased (2) phones from Verizon. I was promised while having my account setup by the Verizon rep, that I qualified for the BYOD rebate ($350 per phone). Well, after checking the status of the rebate, I discovered it was denied. I contacted Verizon by phone and was told it appears to be an error and someone will call me back. After waiting a few days, I decided to contact Verizon via chat and was informed that I did not qualify for the rebate because I did not have a start unlimited plan.....WHAT! I do have an unlimited plan AND YOUR agent set my account up! This is so frustrating as getting the rebates definitely was one of the perks that contributed to me leaving my previous cell phone provider. I truly feel this is false advertisement.

Was the private note sent via email because I haven't received it as of today? Also an update......I was given a credit of $300.00 off my previous bill and promised the $400 off my next bill, but I had to re-contact Verizon (AGAIN) for it per the representative. Well, after contacting Verizon for my remaining credit (as promised) I was connected to a supervisor that refuses to give it me, but offered to give me $16.00 worth of credits for 25 months....UNACCEPTABLE because that was not what I was promised. I kept a copy of the conversation and I am posting below. I am so disappointed with Verizon and more disappointed that I was suckered into switching to Verizon.

Thank you for contacting the Verizon Messaging team! It would be my pleasure if you could elaborate your concern.
Hello, I am writing in regards to a credit that I am due of $400.00 on this billing cycle. If you go back and review my notes, I was credited a total of $300 last billing cycle and was told to contact you all once my new bill post.
Verizon Agent
Thanks for the information. Let me check it.
Thank you.
Verizon Agent
You're welcome.
Verizon Agent
I am checking the notes in your account.
Verizon Agent
Meantime, may I know how you're doing today, hope you and your family is doing well.
I am doing well and I hope all is well with you. Thank you so much for asking.
Verizon Agent
Yes, we are absolutely fine and thank you so much.
Verizon Agent
I am discussing with my supervisor.
Okay, no problem.
Verizon Agent
Thank you so much.
Verizon Agent
Meantime, there is an promotion for you, : Get $700 off the latest iPhone 13 Series smartphone for customers on a Premium Unlimited plan that trade in and upgrade to an eligible device.
I really want to upgrade but its saying I have to pay upfront and think its because I already have 2 phones that I am paying monthly for,
Verizon Agent
I am referring to the line ending 8855.
That is the line I am referring to also.
Verizon Agent
Yes, you're correct, your account is not eligible for the device paymetns.
Verizon Agent
Payments**
Understood.
Verizon Agent
Thank you so much.
No, thank you so much for checking.
Verizon Agent
I've discussed with my supervisor and got approval of manual credit of $16/month for 24 months.
$16 a month for 24 months for what?
Verizon Agent
$16*25 will be $400.
Unfortunately that was not what was discussed with me last time. I am now being inconvenienced twice and Verizon is again not upholding their end of the bargin.
I was promised when I switched over to Verizon, I would get $700 in rebates for switching and that was not honored.
Then I was told due to my inconvenience I would receive $300 credit one month and $400 the next month and now I am being told the $400 will have to be broken up......UNACCEPTABLE!
Can I please get a number for a manager and not a supervisor or to your Corporate Office because this is not fair to a customer.
Verizon Agent
Let me ask my supervisor to come over the chat and help you further.
Thank you.
Verizon Agent
Hi I am your Verizon expert for today you are connected to one of the supervisor
Hello and I am more than you sure you have been filled in.
Verizon Agent
I can see that you are facing issue with the rebate and you were promised $400 as for now we cant issue the rebate offer because it is expired to honor the credit we will apply the credit for you in 24 monthly installments
At this point, I would like contact in for a manager or Corporate.
*contact info
Hello, are you still there.
Verizon Agent
In that case you can contact us at 1800-VERIZON
And what is your name?
Verizon Agent
My name is Snow B.
