Esbi
Billing for serivces not requested or used

Miscellaneous

I filed a complaint to ESBI when I noticed a charge on my Verizon home phone/internet bill for 15.85. I could not get through to Verizon via phone so I emailed them asking what this was? The responce was via email "we will contact you in 3-5 business days".

Next I went to ESBI's websight and filed a complaint / explaination for this charge and let them know the following:
! Inquiries: Your company billed Verizon for 15.85 ESBI charges. I AM NOT AN
ESBI CUSTOMER, Inform VERIZON to remove this billing I have already
contacted the better business Bureau.
Thank you!

Two days later (today) I recieved this email:
