      In March of 2022, *************** of *********, LC contracted with Verizon Connect to install GPS trackers in our vehicles. When the installer came, several were unable to be installed due to the type or age of vehicles. The unused trackers were returned as instructed using mailing labels provided by Verizon Connect. Over a year later, and we are still being billed for the unused, never installed trackers. I have been on numerous calls with customer service, several contacts with **************** all have failed to produce resolution. They now wish to charge $3000 to remove them from my account.I Have attached the invoice and the tracker list which highlights the ones I have and the ones I am still being charged for.

      Hello Verizon Connect,I believe we resigned a contract with you. What happens if we no longer want to use your company and we break the contract? Ever since Verizon took over fleetmatics - the customer service is horrible. You made it mandatory to update the equipment back in January. Ever since two of our trucks were not working. 807 wouldn't start due to your equipment and we could not use it for at least 3 days. Our guys spent 2 days trying to find the problem and it turned out to be from your equipment. I have put endless amounts of phone calls into your company over the last 5 months due to the same issue. We have had 3 technicians out for our 803 truck and it's still not fixed. I spent 3 hours waiting on hold and troubleshooting yesterday - just to make a 4th appointment. At this point - for all of our time and our trouble I feel like we should have no penalty for wanting to leave your company's services. I just tried to call in now to find out about our contract and the woman could not find our company. We are a functioning business that does not have the time for your company to figure your company out. Your services are supposed to make us run more efficiently. I have hours and multiple employees invested in this issue. You have cost us time and money. Please resolve our contract with you ASAP or forward this email to someone who has that ability. Thanks,******

      I sent written cancelation notice to Verizon Connect in December 2022. I canceled due to Verizon Connect lack of customer support, customer account staff turnover, faulty equipment, and delays to business. Verizon Connect still has not canceled our account. ******************************************* failed to send a representative to remove the Dash Cameras/GPS units. I've contacted Verizon Connect multiple times through email and phone to discuss the cancellation and pending charges, but have been unsuccessful at reaching a customer service manager. I would like to resolve the issue, but cannot reach the customer service manager at ******************************************* to discuss. It is clear that Verizon Connect has no customer support staff and is avoiding canceling our account. ******************************************* will not respond. Verizon Connect leaves an automated voicemail on my phone each month to call them to make payment. I call them back each month and spend roughly 1 hour on the phone with customer service in ***** trying to reach a customer support agent that can help. **************** in ***** continues to provide phone numbers and extensions that are invalid. It has been a significant disruption to our business and extremely frustrating.

      I signed up with Verizon Connect with a sales representative and was promised that it would be mailed within 305 business days and that once the device arrived, they would set up a technician to install in the vehicle. This all took place last year (2022). I have been calling, I've sent emails to the business reps on my account to cancel as I never received this so-called device to my place of business. No one has responded to my emails. I've made numerous attempts to contact the number provided on my emails ************** and all they say is that only a manager can cancel, and someone would call me back. I initially paid $29 to sign up and I've been getting invoices to pay for a service I cancelled and again never received devices for or a technician was never scheduled to install. I want a refund for what I initially paid AND i want confirmation that this has been cancelled and nothing will be reported the credit bureaus. How dare the customer service representative tell me to make a payment on an account that is not even supposed to be active or was never used to begin with. This is a complete SCAM! If the above is not done, I will be contacting every social media, news cast I know to make sure everyone knows the scam that is being run with this Verizon Connect. Below is the information that was forwarded to my mail:Verizon Connect Account: ************ Wallet ID / UMR: ************

      On November 1st, 2022, our company purchased *** and monitoring services for our fleet of drivers. However, upon receiving the *** devices, we realized that they did not come with the required log books. We immediately contacted the provider and, after a long wait time, spoke to a representative who assured us that the log book would be sent separately.Unfortunately, one of our drivers was pulled over by the **************************** (***) and received a formal complaint for not having a log book. Concerned about compliance, we began searching for alternative log book solutions to adhere to industry regulations.In light of these issues, we contacted Verizon to cancel the services. Shockingly, they responded with a demand for a $1,500 contract cancellation fee for unused services. We expressed our dissatisfaction, highlighting that they failed to provide the agreed-upon service as stated in the contract and that we had been warned by the *** for not having the required log book. Despite our attempts to resolve the matter, they did not provide a satisfactory response and are now billing us $4,177.95 for services that were not rendered.Once again, we contacted Verizon, explaining the unfairness of the situation and emphasizing that we should not be charged for services we did not receive. Their response was to pay the outstanding balance and then they would issue a credit. Unfortunately, we are unable to afford such a payment, and it is unjust to expect us to pay for services that were not provided in the first place.We kindly request your intervention to address this issue and ensure a fair resolution. We firmly believe that we should not be held responsible for charges related to services that were never delivered. We are open to discussing a fair and reasonable resolution that acknowledges the lack of service and the inconvenience caused.

      I bought a couple fleet tracker with Verizon Connect in early 2022, it worked fine and was initially happy with the service and installation time so I attempted to add more over time. Once I started to add more of these trackers, the tracking devices either never was mailed, and while the few that was mailed was never installed. At this point, I started registering my complaints and notifying them of the on-going issue which they would always report that it had been filed and that the account manager would resolve. This matter never got resolved and instead would get automated calls on these outstanding bills for services never rendered. I would then call the customer service, then the agent would issue partial credit and became a cycle. I got fed up of this cycle, and then requested a total cancellation of the account in December 2022, and the agent mentioned due to the circumstances, they would proceed with the cancellation with no penalty and credit all outstanding amount since it was never my fault many of these devices were never received. Now it has been almost 6 months, and each month, the cycle repeats. The automated calls, then its waiting on the phone for several hours to speak with an agent, then speak to the agent to explain the issue, then the partial credit, then back again the following month. I complained about this automated calls, and explained why I had stopped paying this account due to this matter. I have had to repeat information to the various Verizon Connect departments, which is very frustrating as it shows the record is not being passed along well, and then puts the onus of explaining each issue from the beginning again rather than have the agent walk you through until the matter gets to a resolution. In each of my past complaints made written to some of the customer agents, I would appeal to them that please follow-up with me on this matter in 2 weeks because it is hard to get another agent and explain but they never do.

      We were paying our bill of $315.00 monthly for their service, and suddenly they started charging us extra for dash cams. We do not have dashcams, never had dashcams. Since September 2022, we have been asking them to correct this issue. Multiple times we have called and emailed. Every month sometimes more. We have been promised they would, but they don't. Each month the next bill comes with the same problem. None of them have done anything to correct this issue even after numerous ones tell us they will. When we attempt to call them back or email they are no where to be found, and it goes from person to person without any resolution. This is getting out of hand. Our act# ************ still has charges racking up against us for dash cams that we never had. Some of the names of those we have spoken with (or emailed) at Verizon are: *************************, ***************************, ***********************, *********************** ************************************************************************************************************************************, *****************************, ************************************************************ ********************************************************* and several others. Several of their emails now bounce back as no longer good emails. We desire them to take off those extra fees, adjust our balance due, and correct our monthly bill ASAP please. If they can't do the math to adjust this, they need to zero it all out because, we have sent them the $315.00 monthly that we owed. We are not behind on paying them. They need to correct their error. Thank you for your help.

      I have contacted 10+ times to have a truck removed from my tracking system- I continue to get billed for this truck and the customer service continues to tell me they will have someone contact me within 2-4 business days. I have yet to hear from anyone after 10+ calls.

      I have been trying to cancel my account with ********************************************* for at least 6 months for a service I hadnt used for at least a year. Finally I had no choice but to shut off the credit card to stop payment. I sent them a letter to shut it off the service. I sent them an email to shut off the service. And I called them multiple times to shut off the service. And now Ive been battling with them for months and months to get a credit back on my account for the unused months. All they do is give me a case number and tell me they will call me back in 72 hours or less and they never do. *** been told on the phone multiple times that a full credit would be given and that they would be calling me back to process the credit. I am beyond frustrated.
