Security deposit was double charged

[nick225]

When signing up for my new internet service I chose to opt out of the credit check by paying a $125 security deposit. The website was not accepting the original credit card I was trying to use, so support told me to try another card. The second card worked. When I checked my bank account a few days later, the $125 security deposit was processed on both cards.

I have tried calling Verizon support to get refunded the extra $125 deposit, but they don't know what to do. Has anyone experienced this before?

Report the charge on the first card that wasn't working to your bank.

They may be able to get it reversed.
