verizon and direct tv billing

[bacardistuff]

For two months now, I have paid for DIRECTV NFL SUNDAY TICKET for $37.49.  I called the first time it showed up in the August bill and informed Direct TV as well as Verizon that I did not want this package.  I was told I had to pay it anyway but would receive a credit for such on the 9/13/13 bill.  I just got my Verizon bill and not only did I not receive a credit, I am charged an amount for DIRECTV NFL SUNDAY TICKET of $37.49.  I called Direct TV on 9/13/13 and they tell me not only did I get a credit; I am NOT being charged for September.  Now how is it that Direct TV can give me a credit and not charge me but Verizon can?

Good question, right?  So I get a hold of an agent on the Verizon online chat.  They tell me I need to call Direct TV back.  I ask the Verizon person to check my bill to make sure that I am seeing what I am seeing. Sure enough, Verizon (or rather Direct TV) is charging me the $37.49.  So now back to calling Direct TV....
