http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/452/RipOff0452294.htm

and I’m very happy to announce that i just received a call from verizon telling me that i can get out of my contract with not EFT. She was very apologetic about the mixed information i got from the other reps. She gave me her number and extension and told me whenever i finish porting my number to give her a call and she also noted my account.

For a moment i questioned myself for wanting to get off verizon but that moment was shortly lived since i remember all the rude and obnoxious reps i talked to before. And because i want an iphone..

Note to Verizon abide to your contract and don’t ever ever F with me again

http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/452/RipOff0452294.htm

the tittle is Verizon Wireless Loyalty Dept I was told i could get out of my contract with no early termination fee because price changes affected me.. but Lakanja Jones denied me Florida Nationwide

i just updated with the last call i made.. where i recorded one of the reps acknowledging that this change is affecting me adversely but somehow her manager doesn’t have a copy of the contract nor access to the verizon wireless website

In the contract says 60 days from the day you received notice of the change. i received the notice on my march bill So i’m very close to the last day.. I already called like 4 times so they can’t say i’m past the date because i called before the 60 days..

On another note this month Increased their FUSC fee which i have also brought up.

I suppose to get 3 call backs from 3 different managers yesterday. According to their 72 hour call back policy. So far no one has called me except another stupid rep giving more excuses. here is teh email seh send me after our conversation part of it

“Fernando, thank you for taking some time to speak to me. In speaking to you, you stated that you receive our notice to you, regarding your messaging service. Previously, when you sent one picture message to more than one recipient, it counted as one picture (or video) message. Per the letter you received, you will now be charged for picture/video messages delivered to each recipient. I am truly sorry for this inconvenience.

I am sorry that the changes mentioned in the letter you received did not impact the terms of your service agreement. Therefore, there is no compensation ( or waiving cancellation fees) to you, in the event that you decide to cancel your service. Please accept my sincere apology in this matter. ”

I filed a complain with the FCC and the BBB

they suck

call verizon and ask them to send you a copy of the SIGNED contract

most likely if u did this online

they don’t have a signed copy because they are to lazy to send you a copy and make sure you sign it

soooo if theres not signed contract

your not obligated to anything

now are you?

She wanted all of us to be able to call oneanother, so she got a verizon contract family plan. Well, my other daughter which is in college, too decided that she was going to call and text her friend from Jimaca. She really didn’t think nothin of it because there wasn’t no international code that had to be dialed before the number and I really didn’t think it was a problem until we receieved a text on Dec.26,2007 saying that we owed them(Verizon) 3,570.00.I called them and explained to them we did not know that it was not a US phone # due to not having a code before it. So anytime he called and text her it would also charge us big time!! They would not work with us or take any of the charges off at all. If it was Cingular or T-Mobile they would have made some kind of arrangements being that we was never late and had no other problems. Doe’s anyone know how we can at least get out of paying the Contract early cancelation fee? Please help!!

I spoke with them on the phone this weekend and found out the following:

1. They aren’t going to let me out without a fight

2. The text message change won’t help you out of the contract if you’ve got a messaging plan

3. The sales guy that told me my ETF would be pro-rated last July lied. It’s not pro-rated unless you signed up after Nov ’06.

If anyone has any ideas, let me know: info@bumwheel.com

Why, oh why, should the individual not use the exact same measures to protect themselves? The idea that common folk should not avail themselves of all possible protection, that those should be reserved for business and goverments, is absurd. (not to mention propagted by those gov’t and businesses who would rather you did not.)

If you stopped for even 10 seconds and actually read through some posts on the blog, you’d know good and well this “whole blog” is not about “a new cell phone and how to get out of contracts.”

It’s one thing to stand up for something you believe in. It’s another to twist the truth to make a point.
