FIOS: HORRIBLE Re-Location Experience with Billing Info/Equipment

I have relocated to a new state last month.   Prior to that I filled out the necessary online forms in prep of my move.  I also wanted to change my plans for T.V, Internet and Phone.   I succesfully changed my plan online and received 2 confirmations with a different estimated monthly projected bill.  I was confused so I called customer support and boy did that **bleep** sound condescending.  I asked her to explain why the price of the plan I chose was significantly lower than my confirmation bill.   I couldn't even remember/comprehend her explanation because it was all technical  bull**bleep**.  Am I an idiot? um if i am, i'm sure as hell a successful one.  I digress,  so i tried calling again a couple of days later but this time the gentleman I spoke to was much nicer and pleasant.   I ended up getting the plan I wanted for about $144 a month.  and i have that saved as a pdf A couple of days later I signed online to see that my information has not been updated (new address, new plan, etc)  I used online chat thinking this woud be a easy fix.  Well, i can't remember the details but basically I ended the chat in frustration because I couldn't get a simple answer why they haven't updated all of my information.   Even now my plan says that I don't have a plan... but yet I received a new bill this month for $44. (explanation below)

Now it has been a month, and i received a new bill for $44.  I thought this made sense because I was having ridiculous slow speeds this month and I was given a 15 day credit for my 75mpbs.  So, i paid for this month but the thing that doesn't make sense is that my bill shows the plan that I had in my old residence--When i looked at the details it shows that I removed almost everything--On top of that, my billing address, is still my old one.   Even trying to explain all of this is overly complicated.

Back to billing:  I see a note stating that equipment needs to be returned in 30 days or be charged.  I'm not sure if that's for me or if it was a general message for all users.  (pretty ambiguous).  ANY RATE, I sent their equpiment back so I better not be charged as this would be the last straw.   

The last 2 months has been a total nightmare.  Between incompetent billing and extermely below average internet speed, I feel totally helpless.

I have been recording all of my chats/conversations because I just can't trust verizon.  Resorting to social media is not something I'd be proud of doing but there's just no other choice.

FIX MY **bleep** GOD **bleep** IT...
