VERIZON CROOKS LIE ABOUT PHONE PLAN COSTS Tampa, Florida

I decided to add Verizon long distance to my Verizon landline service on or about January 03, 2016.  My average bill had been about $27-$28.  The representative with whom I spoke told me I could add long distance for $6 a month plus 5 cents a minute per long distance call.  I said my future bills should then be about $35 plus 5 cents a minute on long distance calls.  He concurred. 

When I got my bill on January 30, 2016 the amount charged was $59.59 and I had made only 22 minutes of long distance calls.  What the Verizon rep failed to mention is that Verizon piles on phony surcharges to rip-off their customers. 

When I called to complain and demanded that the tape of my conversation with the rep with whom I previously spoke be played, Diana with whom I was speaking claimed she coudn't access that tape.  Diana also stated there was no such plan as the one quoted me. She asked if I wished to make a complaint.  I said yes and she provided me a phone number which when dialed reached those telemarketing crooks who are always pushing free medic alert systems.

I made a formal complaint to the Federal  Communications Comission about Verizon's bate and switch tactics.  I would very much appreciate if my fellow Rip-Off reporters would inform me as to what other websites I might post on to inform others of Verizon's tactics.
