How to change myverizon username

I signed up for FIOS over the phone about a month ago.  I guess the guy on the phone either misheard my name or made a typo and entered my name/email as one letter off from my actual.  My install date isn't for another two weeks, but I have been able to "login" since it just needs order number and zip code.  When I first logged in, it asked me to create a verizon account, which it had already prefilled in (with my off-by-one email).  I didn't realize it was off until I pressed submit to create the account and it was too late.  

I tried calling support and they were pretty useless.  They claimed everything was updated, but only my name looks corrected (which I could really care less about - they will still cash the checks monthly).  I was specific in that I wanted to make sure I could log in with my real email (as I will eventually forget the off by one mistake on the verizon).  Is there any way to get it changed or am I forever doomed already?

Thanks
