Misled by Salesman - FIOS cancellation fee

Sad to see posts like mine all over the internet. Even more sad that I didn't see them before I switched to Verizon. This past April I switched from Comcast to Verizon FIOS. At the time I was apprehensive about signing a 2 year contract, knowing that I likely wouldn't be in the same are for that long. I was assured by both the home salesman and customer service that, if I moved to an area they didn't service, I wouldn't be charged an early cancellation fee. Now I am moving, and the only thing Verizon offers in the area is home phone service. Since I am moving into a parsonage, the phone line is already provided from the church, so I have no need for another home phone line. Talked to Dave in customer service today, and he informed me that I am facing a $125 early cancellation fee, since they do "technically" still offer service in that area, even though I made it clear when I signed up that I had no interest in any services other than internet. So my choices are either to pay a $125 early cancellation fee or $20/month + setup fees for a home phone that I don't need. Terrible customer service Verizon...

  • Service cancellation fee

    I need to cancel our service. We have 4 lines, all being smartphones. How do I do it? I'm SURE Verizon charges a cancellation fee, ha!

    mimisan99 wrote:
    If you cancel in the middle of your billing cycle...Verizon will give you some mumbo jumbo that the "port"  didn't complete until the day before your next billing cycle.  How convenient!!!  I cancelled 3 weeks before my billing cycle and paid their early termination fee.  I didn't have a problem paying that but I do have a problem paying them until the end of the cycle when I can't use the phone.  They got an extra $75.  So don't cancel in the middle of your cycle but then if you do, they will probably give you some **** about the "port" didn't finish until the next billing cycle.  I guess either way your are screwed!!!  Glad I am not a Verizon customer.  BTW, I was transferred three times to learn that I wasn't getting my $75. bucks back.  Good Luck!!!
    Actually, paying for the full final month of service isn't "mumbo jumbo," it is part of the terms and conditions of the customer agreement:
    WHAT HAPPENS IF MY POSTPAY SERVICE IS CANCELED BEFORE THE END OF MY CONTRACT TERM?
    If you're signing up for Postpay Service, you're agreeing to subscribe to a line of Service either on a month–to–month basis or for a minimum contract term, as shown on your receipt or order confirmation.  (If your Service is suspended without billing, that time doesn't count toward completing your contract term.) Once you've completed your contract term, you'll automatically become a customer on a month–to–month basis for that line of Service. If you cancel a line of Service, or if we cancel it for good cause, during its contract term, you'll have to pay an early termination fee.  If your contract term results from your purchase of an advanced device, your early termination fee will be $350 minus $10 for each full month of your contract term that you complete.  Otherwise, your early termination fee will be $175 minus $5 for each full month of your contract term that you complete.  Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month's billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then.  Also, if you bought your wireless device from an authorized agent or third–party vendor, you should check whether they charge a separate termination fee.
    It has nothing to do with the port.  When you agree to the contract, you agree to pay for that final month. Most carriers do this.  I had U.S. Cellular for a couple of years, and they had the same policy.  I don't know about AT&T or T-Mobile, but I am fairly certain Sprint has the same terms as well.  Knowing the terms of the  contract you agreed to saves time, hassle, and frustration.  Also you don't have to pay two companies for a one month of service. 

  • Moving and an unknown cancelation fee.

    I am moving to an area where service is not provided and because I have to cancel I have to pay $110. I asked for a copy of the contract but was told it was a verbal agreement. I asked for him to read back the verbal agreement and no where does it say anything about paying a cancelation fee if I am moving to another are. If it had I wouldn't have singed up because I knew I planned on moving. Is there any way to get a copy of the verbal agreement? And if I never agreed to this moving fee is there anyone I can call about it?

    I am getting this error whilst attempting to move NEF (Nikon RAW files) either between folders on the same hard-drive or between hard-drives (which are incorporated into my Lightroom catalogue).
    Whenever I receive this error, a strange (locked) file appears in the directory/folder to which I intended to move the file and on examining this file in the terminal I can see that it contains the following error message: "cannot execute binary file...logout". The filename of this strange file is usually very random such as 470F00FF-9FBC-4517-84BF-26E52251B2B9-449-0000020C6A4DD5FD
    I do not have any problems with missing sidecars and always select "save metadata to files" before attempting to move the files...can anyone figure this out?

  • Creative Cloud Cancellation fee after 12 months

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm trying to sign up for creative cloud, but under the terms and conditions i noticed it says after the 12 months, they'll renew your contract automatically, at the standard annual plan price, unless you cancel.
    Will there be a cancellation fee associated with this, after the 12 month period? I only want to test Adobe Cloud for a year, so i would like to know.
    Thanks in advance! xx

    Once your contract renews just cancel within 30 days and there will be no fee, this is the same as when you first sign up.

  • Can the 50% cancellation fee be waived if switching from full membership to photography package?

    I really only use Lightroom and Photoshop and I want to cancel my full CC membership and switch to the cheaper photography plan, but I am curious if there is a way to waive the cancellation fee since I only just renewed my full membership about a moth ago. Can anyone help me out here?
    Thank you!

    Your IT administrator will send you an email invitation to join Creative Cloud for teams. Once you have accepted the invitation you should contact us to cancel your individual membership.
    You need to launch one of your CC apps and select Help>Sign out. Close the app, relaunch and sign in again with your Adobe ID. This ensures that your Adobe ID is now associated with the new subscription plan.  (Your Adobe ID would be your company email address if this was the address used for the teams invitation).
    Please let me know if you have further questions.
    Thanks
    Bev

  • Cancellation fee

    so i am buying a new iPhone 5s but my contract isn't up yet do i have to pay a cancellation fee?

    Depends on what you plan to do.
    Are you staying with Verizon? Are you purchasing the phone to place on your current line? Are you opening a new line to get the discounted price for the phone and cancelling your old line?
    If you are staying with Verizon, paying full retail for the phone and placing it on your line, then you will not have an ETF.
    If you are opening a new line to get the discounted price for the phone and then cancelling your old line, then yes you will have an ETF for your old line. In this scenario, you will not be able to keep your old number for your phone.

  • How do I find out how much my cancellation fee will be?

    I am thinking about canceling my one of my services with Verizon. How do I determine the amount of my cancelation fee?

    charrr wrote:
    Ok. My contract is done on 9/30/11 and I was on a 2 year contract, do you know how much I would be paying?
    Thought I was pretty specific, and you haven't disclosed what phone you have, but if you can't do the math, I will give it a try.
    Are you sure that this is your contract end date, or just your upgrade date? Verizon allows you to upgrade 20 months into your 24 month contract in exchange for signing a NEW 24 month contract. I will treat this as your contract end date, though.
    Smart phone, as I said before, it is $350 less $10 for each month of your 24 month contract that you have completed. If your contract end date is 9/30/11, then you signed on 9/30/09. This means that you have completed 16 months of your 24 month contract. So $350 - $160 = $190.

  • Services I never requested then a huge cancellation fee.

    Last month I went to pay my bill and noticed I was being charged for internet service I did not request or approve. I should explain I tried comcast internet once before and never could get it to work despite trying multiple modems, so there's no way I would have approved internet service. The local comcast service center did nothing but refer me to a phone # where I spoke to a rep who finally cancelled my internet service and promised to refund the money I was charged for a self install kit. Now this month I look at my bill and find a $230 cancellation fee! My case has been assigned to a rep named Steven but he doesn't return my calls. I cannot even put into words how angry I am. I want my cable tv package and nothing more- no internet, no phone, just cable tv.Wayne

  • Cancellation fee when moving out, (after contract ...

    Hi, I am moving abroad soon. I would like to know what charges I will have to pay. My 18 month contract with BT infinity will be over before I leave. I understand that I will lose the line rental as I have already paid for a full year. But should I be paying a cancellation fee? I am not cancelling I am moving abroad.

    It is in their Terms and Conditions that they will charge a £30 cease charge.
    A cease charge of £30.00 (not subject to VAT) is payable if you cease your broadband service and do not request and use a migration access code or another recognised transfer process to move to another service provider.
    It does go onto to say:
    This charge is not raised if you are moving home and BT is unable to provide the service at the new address. For more information please visit www.bt.com/ceasecharge
    And also this part:
    When won't the charge be raised?
    This charge will not be raised should you :-
    Move home and you re-connect to BT Total Broadband via the homemover process.
    Move home and we are unable to provide the service at your new UK address.
    You are ceasing service due to bereavement or severe illness.

  • Do I have to pay a cancellation fee?

    I was wondering, before I get the iPhone, if I would have to pay a cancellation fee for porting over my current VZW #? I am currently using a family plan, and if I am the only one porting over the #, would I still have to pay a cancellation fee? Considering that my other family members are still using the VZW family plan.

    ryanboi056 wrote:
    shh524, how long did it take to port over or activate your # from VZW on your iPhone?
    I'm not shh524.. but to answer your question..it's different with everyone. It's known that Verizon does take a while to port a number over. I've heard it happens in minutes as well as 24-48 hrs. You will get a text message alerting you that you can now make and receive calls. During that period, I you can make calls from your iPhone, but have the possibility of receiving calls from your old phone. That, of course, is just temporary until your number is ported over completely.

  • 50% Cancellation Fee.  NOT HAPPY!!

    First of all, let me say, the way that you have sucked people into this soul sucking subscription with no way out to be unconscionable.
    I signed up for the cloud after one of your sales people talked me into it when I wanted to purchase a CS6 upgrade.  I wasn't told of your annual renewal policy nor that there would be a 50% cancellation fee for what remains on my 'yearly' commitment.  Had that been made clear to me, I never would of agreed.
    When I called up to cancel - as I can't personally take the expense anymore, I was told that there would be a $170 cancellation fee charged.  THAT IS B.S!!
    You are praying on people for no reason.  I can understand when re-stocking fee's are applied and fee's if you had invested into my 'membership'.  BUT YOU DON"T and it's just pure greedy profit, because you can.  I AM FURIOUS.  People's situation changes and you're being d*bags Adobe!

    I can really see how it would be easy to know how many mins you are at.. and being someone that goes over mins i could understand why you wouldnt want to check it once a week, and near the end every day.
    I can understand why you don't want to pay for the service you used
    I can understand why you didnt want to pay $500 for a phone and got the discounted rate
    I can't understand what you want verizon to do for you..
