Billing issues

I really hope someone from Verizon can help me on here...

I recently received my 1st month bill which is completely incorrect. I had an issue with picking my phones up at the verizon store which led to me and my wife sitting in the store for hours, Then having to return in the morning to spend another 5-6 hours sitting in the store for them to sit on hold numerous times and eventually cancelling my order out and redoing it in store with a billing person over the phone to "match" what was originally done in the original order.

I refuse to sit on hold for hours or sit in the store again and at this point I am just plain angry off at the level of customer service I am receiving especially as a new customer coming from another provider.

I can provide a pdf of what the original billing was supposed to be that has the breakdown of charges.

Currently my first bill is showing $677.75. This should be $356.65 and following months should be $251.65

I was also charged $280 something in the store when it should have been $239.25 when picking the phones up. The lady at the store told me she was calling to credit me for the 1 time activation fee's to make up for my time and the difference in this charge.

Hello svt4lifez,

I would be concerned too if my bill were different from what I expected. We are here to help! When you look at your bill, it will itemize each charge for you as well as provide a date range the charge covers. When you review your bill, which charges are you having questions about?

The entire bill does not make sense compared to what I have printed when I checked out from the verizon website when signing up.

The very first bill with Verizon Wireless will be higher than normal. This is expected. The first bill includes the charges for the full billing cycle you are in, a partial month of charges for a few days before the regular billing cycle started, and any activation fees that weren't paid when you picked up the phones. The first bill might not have the discount applied for paperless billing and autopay.

You would have also paid for the sales taxes for the phones and any accessories you purchased in the store when you picked up the phones.

If you post an image of your detailed bill, please remove any personal information from the image before uploading it to your post.

Like I said, This is the confirmation I received. I also have a more thorough breakdown from the website saved if I need to provide it.

I do not understand why the Verizon store did what they did when I tried to pick up the phones, but I was sitting there listening to the phone conversation with the person at the store and whoever was from verizon on the other end while they recreated the order and said it would match this exactly because something was messed up in the system.

Why is my current bill almost double what the first bill should be?
