  2. LJ says:

    Basicly this whole thing is Bs.Verizon doesn’t want to pay any kind of refunds out.They are making up bogus claims so they won’t have to give you a cent.Gl to all those who thought they were getting money back.This is just another slap in the face by the phone company :/

  3. irvin maslow says:

    This “lawsuit” was filed in 2009(?) and was FINALLY supposed to be paid..approx $40 (enough for about a 1/2 tank of gas) last year. Now the LIARS (er Lawyers) have extended probably most of the “class” with a bogus rebuttal AFTER the settling of the “lawsuit”….. Can ANYONE find their 2008 verizon bills??? I may be able to. Did they “repay” the customers they cheated? The ‘rebuttal form’ or “challenge form” said they refunded some charges in 11/08 but the “support document” shows a phony acct/phone #, ILD Aggregator record showing post billing adjustment for PBA VMAIL MTHLY FEEs from 3 OTHER months refunded in MAY 2008??? LAWYERS (or LIARS) should learn to pay attention to detail(S) It now appears I am lowed many MORE months of charges…..NEW REAL C.A.S. with REAL lawyers including a recoupong of all the fees the phony disreputable…….

    1. irvin maslow says:

      The words of Irvin Maslow are ENDED

  4. Denise Scott says:

    Service sucked and we always had to call to find out about beinging charged so much. Never good explanation, said it was part of bill

  5. Theresa D. Ali says:

    I was scammed by verizon between 1999 to 2003

  6. melvin letterlow says:

    well i have verizon and the service sucks im paying all this money and i cant log in the internet go’s off everytime and i had to cancel my plan and go to another

  7. elijah miller says:

    i had verzion for 3 months and im getting problems with internet and my phone cut off rite after i paid my bill the bill was $120.00 i paid that then they tell me i own them $50 more or they are not going to put my phone back on so i paid the $50 and just cancelled my plan contract

  8. Keith Letterlou says:

    I had verzion in my name but the service didn’t work properly as what they said as a landmind and my internet that was along with anonymous high bill

  9. John A says:

    I am conviced Verizon is a criminal entity. I am part of Group 1 and still haven’t been paid my stolen money. I have NEVER had so many problems with a company in my life. Turning 50 soon. Confirmation numbers are useless, records are routinely lost, mistakes in their favor only happen all the time, lying occurs. I finally cancelled my service with a penalty and will NEVER go back no matter what.

  10. kimberly says:
