I, too, have a billing complaint and Verizon cannot solve the problem after multiple contacts

[GrandpaGeek]

In August 2015, I renewed my Triple Play for two years.  I am supposed to get $22.50 per month in discounts.  My first bill only showed $10 in discounts.  I tried Verizon Chat, but Verizon disconnected me three times--system issues.  Each time I reconnected, I got a new agent and I had to repeat the entire history.  Then, I called customer service.  I told the representative about my issue.  I gave her my Verizon order number and offered to send her a copy of the order confirmation that shows the $22.50 in discounts.  There, apparently, was no way to do this.  She offered me a customer loyalty discount of an additional $10.00 per month.  I told her that I was entitled to $22.50 a month.  She acted like she was doing me a favor with the discount she was offering.  As I was convinced my next bill would not be correct, I drafted a letter the next day and sent it to the General Correspondence address in St. Petersburg, FL asking for assistance.  I included a letter, a copy of my first bill and a copy of the Verizon Order Confirmation.

I just got my next month's bill.  Sure enough, my scepticism did not go unrewarded.  I was only 'granted' an additional $4.99 per month in discounts though it appears that this additional discount was retroactive to August.

How can I work with a real person at Verizon that cares about getting this right?
