Hi! I'm a visitor from China, and I was in the US from Jan 19th to Feb 1st 2013. I bought an iPad mini in San Jose, CA, and activated the Verizon 4G LTE with $30 2GB data prepaid plan. Now I'm back in China, however, today I received a payment email which said another $30 was charged. I have no idea why it's happened?

Now I canceled the prepaid service on my iPad, but how can I get a refund on the unused prepaid plan?

Thanks!

Contact customer service. They'll be glad to help. You can do this via the website, also.

I have tried to submit my question on the website, but I can do nothing without a verizon account. To register a new account, I must have a verizon phone number at first. It's impossible for me in China. Is there any direct email address for verizon customer service?

Yes, there is. I will try to find the appropriate place to post a question for a quick response, but I think it can be found on their website.

You would need to give them your former account details and credit card number. Then, they should be able to process a refund for you.

No direct email for customer service on verizon official website.

I googled for the email address of verizon customer service, it's "HQExec.Relations@verizonwireless.com".

I have sent an email to this address, and waiting for response.

Thank you. But I'm in China now, email address is better for me.

That is the correct one. If no timely response you could request that it be escalated to the new data charge task force they created due to a recent FCC ruling on billing practices for data.
