New phone warranty frustration

Yes February 7th I ordered new phones for my grandson, the droid x play.  From day one the camera did not work! I was out of state and couldn't do anything till I got back, needless to say I called today March 13th.  I chose the monthly payment plan for this phone and have yet to even make the first payment on the phone!  Plus I pay the $11.99 insurance plan on my phone's.  So since its beyond the 14 days they will only send a refurbished phone but I have to keep paying for a NEW phone price!! Last time we replaced a phone for a refurbished one it didn't last a month!!  These phones are very expensive and now I have to pay for a new phone price, but only get a used phone.

What happened to good customer service?  What happened to standing behind your products?  Now we get poor products, poor customer service, expensive products that they won't even stand behind, and force us to pay new prices for used products.  We have to abide by a contract, how about Verizon abide by giving us quality service and products?
