Charges for unreturned equipments

[LizaE]

I cancelled my services on June 9th. Got harassed daily to return my equipments. I called the agent who advised me to print a label from the website and so I did.

I shipped the box first week of july which included:

Rent: HD Set-Top Box (1 qty)		Serial Number: {edited for privacy}
Wireless Router (1 qty)		Serial Number: {edited for privacy}

Today I got an email stating I was charged for unreturned equipments. I chatted for almost an hour with 3 different reps who finally said return is probably still processing and I should give it 30-60 days to clear, but yest when I called the 800# i was automatically connected to the collections dept.

i requested a billing supervisor and spoke to JOHN FROM THE MASSACHUSSETTS office who was completely careless and indifferent about the situation. he blamed me for not keeping a receipt and complately dropped responsibility off of verizon while his RETURN PROCESSING TEAM have most likely messed up my return and did not register it corrcetly in the system. I am SO disappointed with this Customer service and to be honest with disgusted.  This is a pathetic way to treate customers and very humiliating. My husband's company and all his phone services are verizon, but I promised if this is not resolved, won't be forl ong before I switch the whole company over.

I need a responsible and respectable response immediately.

So disappointed with this level of service. Shame on you JOHN!
