Data charge not-pro-rated when upgrading

Thank you Verizon for finding another way to screw loyal customers.
I recently upgraded to a smart phone in mid-month.  When my bill arrived I was charged the full month's data charge for the month in which I upgraded.  It's $30.  Pro-rated it would have been more like $10.  Frankly, you could have given me that one as a thank you for years of being a loyal customer.  I could have switched to Boost or Cricket for a lot less.  Instead you charge me for the whole month.  Sure, we're talking $10, $20... won't break me, but add it up and it's millions of overcharges for Verizon.
Any lawyers out there who would like to launch another class action suit against greedy telecoms?  ********.  I suppose I could call and waste $20 worth of your customer service time, but I have better things to do.

I am recently pretty unhappy with Verizon, they disbanded their customer loyalty group and when I got a new plan I lost 4 mos of a credit I was to receive for "being a loyal customer" and not cancelling service, instead I upgraded and continued another 2 years...but got my son a new phone requiring a new plan and I am sorry you just lost that credit and we won't give it to you.  Nice customer service, what happened to fixing things for your customers, and loyalty yes says alot that they disbanded that group.  Also they are having issues with data looking high and I see NOTHING about it posted anywhere, but took several hours and days to talk to several people to find it's a known issue.

  • Data usage not pro-rated?

    Ok--I upgraded my account to include data usage of 4GB on July 7th.  When I received my bill I was quite surprised to see 2 months worth of the data plan on there as I had already paid July's bill.  Since the billing cycle for July ended on 7/10 why was my $70 billing for the month of July not pro-rated down to approximately $7(10%) as I only had it for 3 days of the billing cycle?
    Subject was edited by: Verizon Moderator

    When you make a plan change, you have three options:
    Backdate, to include the full current billing cycle.  Full charge for the month, full complement of minutes, data, texts - whatever you are changing.  This is what you chose or opted for.  If you increased your data allowance to cover overages already incurred, this would be the only wise choice.   Full charge for 6/10 - 7/10, full use of the 4 GB data.
    Effective the date of the change, in your case, 3 days before the next billing cycle.  By choosing this option, you would only have 400MB of data allowed for the last 3 days of your cycle, and about 1.8 GB for the prior 27 days, so just over 2 GB for the month - probably not enough if you were making the change because you were over your 2 GB allowance.
    Future date, to start with the next billing cycle, does no good if you are already over, but works if you anticipate a heavy usage month.
    So, if you were already over your 2 GB, and by more than just a little, then prorating for 3 days would not be helpful.  Pro-rating applies to both the charges and the allowance.  You pay 10% of the fee, you get 10% of the data.

  • Javascript - Working with Dates, Selection Boxes & Pro-Rated Amounts to Calculate Costs

    Hi, I'm looking for some help. I'm new to Javascript and working off my limited knowledge. Below are three (3) items I need help figuring out.
    ---JavaScript 1: Today---
    I have a Document Level Javascript that gets the current date and automatically enters it into a field. Below is the example:
    var f = this.getField("Today");f.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());
    Problem: Each time I open the PDF, the date gets updated.
    Need: I would like for the date to only be updated if the field is blank (empty).
    ---JavaScript 2: Registration Fee---
    On this same form (application) I would like to calculate TWO costs. The first cost is mandatory registration cost, however the amount is prorated based on the month the application is filled out. Below is the pro-rated amounts based on the remaining months in the year:
    Months Remaining     Fee
              12                       $15.00
              11                       $13.75
              10                       $12.50
              9                         $11.25
              8                         $10.00
              7                         $8.75
              6                         $7.50
              5                         $6.25
              4                         $5.00
              3                         $3.75
              2                         $2.50
              1                         $1.25
    Note: The cost per month is $1.25. You are required to pay for the current month plus any remaining months.
    So let's assume that you fill the application out in May 15th (05/18/2013). There are eight (8) months remaining in the year [May - Dec], so the pro-rated cost is $10.00 (See chart above).
    For this calculation, I need to create a Document Level Javascript that would get the date from the field we used above called "Today" and calculate the "Registration Fee" based on the pro-rated amount. Then I would enter the cost into two fields (Dollars & Cents) as "10 00". (See below).
    Form Example: $ [Text Field - Combo 2 characters] . [Text Field - Combo 2 characters] ---> "$ 10 . 00"
    ---JavaScript 3: Subscription Fee---
    The next fee is an optional fee for a magazine subscription. On the form, the user will check a box (Named: "Subscription") if they want to subscribe to this magazine. This is similar to the example above in that the costs is based on a pro-rated amount. Below is the pro-rated amounts based on the remaining months in the year:
    Months Remaining               Fee
              12                       $12.00
              11                       $11.00
              10                       $10.00
              9                         $9.00
              8                         $8.00
              7                         $7.00
              6                         $6.00
              5                         $5.00
              4                         $4.00
              3                         $3.00
              2                         $2.00
              1                         $0.00
    Note: The cost per month is $1.00. Unlike the previous example, you are ONLY required to pay for the remaining months.
    So let's assume that you fill the application out in May 15th (05/18/2013). There are eight (7) months remaining in the year [Jun - Dec], so the pro-rated cost is $7.00 (See chart above).
    For this calculation, I need to create a Document Level Javascript: If the user checks a box (Named: "Subscription") requesting the subscription, then get the date from the field we used above called "Today" and calculate the "Subscription Fee" based on the pro-rated amount. I would enter the cost into two fields (Dollars & Cents) as "10 00". (Same as above).
    Thanks,
    Stephen

    Two questions:
    1. For "function calculateRegistrationFee", how do I format the return value into 2 parts in order to populate the different fields below. Let's use this example, see screen shot below:
    2. For "function calculateSubscriptionFee", how do I format the return value into 2 parts (like question 1) & adjust for check box variable. If the user checks a box (named: "Subscription") requesting the subscription, then calculate cost. Else cost is $0.00. See screen shot:
    Thanks,
    Stephen

  • Why is Verizon greedy and not pro-rating service?

    Called today to cancel my acct and was told I have to wait 3 more weeks until end of cycle. That's not a customer-oriented policy. Why not pro-rate it and end it when customer wants to end it? Pro-rating will increase customer satisfaction and boost customer loyalty. Verizon, don't you get it? People are getting fed up with GREEDY Corporations. Namaste.

    It has been in the contract as long as I can remember, many reps have come on here reinforcing that wording in the contract and countless people who have ported/canceled their service have also come on these forums complaining about their final bill NOT being pro-rated OR any refund being issued. This is for people in contract AND out of contract. Of course, you could be right and it may have been different at some point. For years, this is the way it has worked, though.
    Personally, I have never ported a number out of Verizon, so I have no personal knowledge.
    Are you speaking from personal experience? You ported out and are now back with Verizon???

  • Data charges have exploded since I upgraded to 5.   Whats wrong?

    My data usage has tripled since I upgraded to 5. Whats wrong???

    You could try to battery saver apps. But I have the same issue. Very annoying and Apple needs to get on this. The update was supposed to fix the battery life issue but it was the one that made mine worse. I feel your pain. All you can do is decrease the screen brightness and kill running apps. Double tap the home button while unlocked and the list at the bottom hold one icon down and when they shake you will see a minus button hit that to make them go away. This will kill programs that are running and eating your battery. I do this often.
    Cheers.

  • Wrap Up Data is not working after license upgrade to enhanced version...

    Hi all.
    I upgrade the license from standart to enhanced edition on a uccx 8.5, and enable the wrap up data in the CDA, I using IPPA and the warp up data is no appearing on the phone after the calls are ended.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Luis.

    The Agents will only see wrap up codes if they are in the work state.  Once the work state time ends, the wrap up codes go away, regardless of whether or not they picked a code.
    See my video here:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAu08Bs0AC0&html5=1
    With that said, are you Agents manually putting themselves into a Work state during each call, or do you have defined on your CSQ's automatic work/automatic wrap up?

  • PHD not working correctly when upgrading from 10.4 to 10.5 client

    Hello,
    We're starting to upgrade our 10.4 client machines to 10.5, and in the first couple, portable home directories aren't happening correctly after the upgrade. When logging in after the upgrade, the OS asks if I want to create a portable home directory on this machine.
    We're running 10.4.11 Server.
    Any ideas or has anyone encountered this?
    On clean installs of 10.5 or migrations, our PHD's are working flawlessly.
    any advice will be appreciated.
    david

    From my experiances, 10.4 Server does not serve well to 10.5. We are running 10.5 and created new PHD with 100 % success, you may want to try considering upgrading your Server, after all it is the heart of the operation.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thank you

    You can do that by opening report in designer, then
    Go To Database Menu -> Setdatasource Location
    Connect to the datasource you want and update the datasource.
    Save the report.
    Hope this Helps !!!

  • Loose PRO functionality when upgrading above 7.0.1

    Hi,
    When I upgrade beyond 7.0.1 my pro registration is stated as invalid. The problem is consistent across my Mac computers & with versions 7.0.2 & 7.0.3.
    I have tried deleting preference settings file & re-entering the registration code.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Thanks for taking the time to reply to my post.
    Firstly, I do have a PRO license for QT 7, which as stated worked fine with version 7 & 7.0.1 i.e. the greyed out features in the standard version are available.
    However, when I upgraded from 7.0.1 to 7.0.2 & 7.0.3 I loose the PRO features & re-entering the license however carefully makes no difference.
    If I down grade to QT 7.0.1 I get the PRO features back.
    I'm a reasonably able Mac user & frankly I just can't figure this one out at all.

  • Charger not lighting up when connected

    The charger was plugged in correctly.  I even checked to make sure the prongs were pushed in all the way.  The problem was that when the magnetic end attached to the port of the Macbook, the amber color light did not appear.  I tried different outlets in different rooms, and the same thing.  Then I restarted and it worked.  Has this happened to anyone else?  Is it an early sign of its old age and on its way out?  I got my Macbook in Oct. 2010.  Thanks.

    If you have a friend or someone that you can borrow a charger from their Mac, you should try that out, try a different charger on the computer and see what it does.  If that doesn't work or you don't know someone who can let you borrow theirs and try it out, then I would suggest taking it to the Genius Bar and have them look at it and see what they can do to help.

  • ABAP System data is not showing in SLD

    Hi All,
    I need to see ABAP System data in to my Java SLD, but presently i cant may be due to 2 main issues--
    1. I have configured all the connections related to RFC properly & SLDCHECK is also giving Green status, but when i ran data collector job in RZ70,. it is giving me following logs

    i did created SLD_NUC entry in Visual admin of my source system then it gives me error of "RFC call failed: JCO.Server could not find server function 'SET_SLD_DATA'.
    So now i need to know, whether this job is actually fetching me data or not?
    Also, when i check in SLD-Administration-data supplier tab, there it shows me my RFC server threads are down, so what to do for it? I did saw in one note, saying Restarting complete server will help, but i think that should be last option, so need to any other solutions prior to that?
    Please also tell me, whether anything else to do for having ABAP system in NWA, i need to do basic activities from NWA for ABAP system?

    Hi,
    This is dual stack, but still i'm not able to see the system.
    Also tell me, in SLD when i'm checking SLD Data supplier in Details tab, it is showing me RFC Server threads as down.
    For example--
    RFC server threads:
    [DOWN] NUC:localhost_sapgw_SLD_NUC_160375285
    [DOWN] UC :localhost_sapgw_SLD_UC_1570432430
    [DOWN] NUC:localhost_sapgw_SLD_NUC_1566747572
    [DOWN] UC :localhost_sapgw_SLD_UC_131845580
    Is this hampering anything?
    Also, in SLD, i'm not able to see Server Settings button/option in main page along with SLD Data Supplier starting option. I have already given concerned roles to my User J2EE_ADMIN, by which i'm logging in to the SLD, as this is my Administrator user.
