I answered a Verizon promotion of a free flatscreen monitor if I bundled my cable TV, internet, long distance and land line telephone for a promotion price of $109.
When I mentioned this to the gentleman who installed the system in my house, he said that Verizon wasn't very good at coming through with these promotion "carrots". He told me to stay on them to make sure I receive it. I called a few months later and the rep told me that the promotion was so successful, that they were very backed up on the flatscreens.
I called Verizon today to ask when I was supposed to get my free flatscreen, and she told me that I should have received a letter stating that I had 45 days to go on the website and apply for it and its too late now and I won't be getting one. Can you believe this?
I Never received a letter from Verizon stating this, as I save EVERY correspondence from them in a Verizon file. Why didn't they put this in my initial paperwork?
After talking to other people who never received their promotion gift, we all realize that this was nothing more than a scam to get us to sign on the dotted line. What burns me more is I have been a stockholder since Verizon's inception!
I am telling everybody my story on Facebook, so that they don't fall into the same trap... Its a SCAM... Beware
