Unfortunately, this is my landline bill not my cellphone bill, so they wouldn't be able to do much for me. However, I just posted an update explaining that the situation should be resolved, now. Also - regarding Verizon cell phone bills, I was told the other day that they will actually <em>retroactively</em> add services to your account for you if you ask them to. For instance, if you use too many minutes one month and get slammed with a whole bunch of overage charges, you can all Verizon Wireless and ask them to upgrade your plan so that you don't have to pay for those overages from the last month.

My Verizon bill seemed inflated too and was well over $300 last month for a three-line plan. Not exactly what I thought was fair! However, I found a really easy way to cut down on the Verizon bill and I bet it would help you also. There's this company called Validas and the name of their website, www.fixmycellbill.com, gives you a good idea of what they do. Within seconds, Validas analyzes your online cell bill and generates a dollar figure of how much you could be saving on your plan. Validas was able to save me over 19 bucks every month--or over 230 dollars per year. If you choose, for a nominal fee of $5, Validas then provides a cell bill adjustment report that you can easily email to your wireless provider in order to make the cash saving changes that Validas specified. I would highly recommend checking out this service. Good Luck, Dylan Curtiss, I feel your pain. My Verizon bill seemed inflated too and was well over $300 last month for a three-line plan.
