Yep! Verizon Fios scammed me too! We signed up for the triple play in September 2013 with the understanding that we were to receive a $300. Visa Gift Card. Months past and we checked where the card was, and were reassured that it was on it's way. More time passed and we still did not receive our card.  Spoke with several, and I mean several Verizon representatives and not one single person could explain why we did not receive our gift card and said it is clearly a mistake on Verizon's part. Spoke to a supervisor that was actually helping me, until one day he quit returning my calls and e mails. I wrote a letter to the company and was contacted by another representative who was baffled why I didn't receive the card, she was to get back to me, that never happened. Finally, I filed a complaint with BBB and was contacted by the escalations department.  I was told by this representative that we opted out of the $300. Visa Gift Card because we chose to "accept a $10 a month savings for 24 months (a $240. savings) VS the $300. Visa Gift Card."  Now, why would I turn down $300. gift card for $240. savings I asked?  The representative quickly came back with the solution to credit my account $60. to make up the difference and called it a courtesy. I'm not sure why Verizon would do that if "I opted out of the gift card" and then call it a courtesy. I contacted BBB again and Verizon's response was MESSAGE FROM BUSINESS:

{edited for privacy}

I don't know where they got the $20 credit a month for 24 months, I was told I opted for a $10 credit a  month.  See when people lie, they cannot keep their stories straight. I would love to be able to cancel my contract without paying the fee. I am angry I am stuck with them & paying my bill on time every single month to a company that scams their customers. Fios should be ashamed of themselves.

They did the same exact thing to us!  I was told when we signed up that the gift card would take three months. Well, three months came and went and no card. I spoke to atleast 10-12 reps that could not understand where it was & why I never received it. I am currently going through the BBB and they are not budging on it! I am so angry I was scammed!!
