On 7/22/05, received my Verizon bill. Noted a crammed amount of $7.53 for an alleged one-minute call for directory assistance in Nevada at 702-555-1212. Totally fraudulent billing as I have never dealt with, or heard of, OAN or TelSeven, LLC. Call was showing as occurring at 06:15 A.M on 5/23/05.

Billing section states, "For questions, call 800-944-9646."

I am filing a complaint with FTC as it is obvious just from this site and the number of complaints I found on the web received by the Florida Public Service Commision. I can't call to attempt to get the charges removed as the OAN toll-free number advises their offices are only open Mon thru Friday 0:70 A.M. to 8:00 P.M.

Well, after calling Teleseven and finally getting a human on the line, she gave me a toll-free number to call for a credit for the charges. The toll-free is not Teleseven but their 'billing company' Operator Assisted Network. They explained that I must have dialed by accident into their "411" call center in Nevada. I asked the rep how I could have done that as I had no way to call OAN to begin with. She replied that I must have misdialed a 10-10- number and got them by mistake. I assured her that we don't ever use 10-10 numbers and that the charge was a ripoff plus numerous other people throughout the U.S. are being ripped off as well by Teleseven. She then offered to give me a credit, which I accepted, and she stated that it would be "a month or two" before the credit was posted on my local phone bill by Verizon. Then I called Verizon to advise them of the credit "receivable" which V set up and then told me to short pay their bill this month by the same amount.
