Verizon fios wouldn't keep my current price for triple play when moving. Now charged with etf

I had no choice but to move due to going through a divorce. I currently had the triple play package and I was paying roughly $80 total on my bill. When I called customer service to have my service transferred to my new address in the next town over I was told that they'd have to charge me an extra $40 each month as this promotion I'm currently in is not available at my new address. I explained that is beyond ridiculous to charge me extra for the same exact package and I refuse to pay. I requested to speak with a supervisor and explained the entire thing. Simply said I want to keep fios with the same package and of course same price. I was told that it cannot be done. I said I couldn't afford the increase and In response was told I would be breaking my contract with fios and charged an etf. I explained that I am not breaking a contract. I feel that Verizon is breaking their contract with me. Why charge me extra because I am moving for the same service. Nothing had changed except for my address. I still want to maintain my exact service. So, now I have an unpaid charge on my credit report from Verizon. I refuse to pay the etf. This is corrupt business practice. Instead of honoring my same plan/cost they'd rather lose a customer.
