Initial service deposit refund lost / sent to closed

Hello, began service in February 2014 was told I would get my deposit back after a year of making payments on time. In March 2015 I called Verizon to ask about the deposit and was told it had been sent returned to the original card.
So I did some research with my old bank and found it had come from them but I had closed my account and they had no record of any incoming deposits in February 2015 the date Verizon says they sent it. Since then I've spoken with Verizon and recieved a tracking number, a confirmation number, the date and amount of the transaction but the bank still wasn't able to locate the funds and requested Verizon call them or that I provide a receipt for the transaction but I haven't been able to comply as Verizon keeps transferring me from dept to department.

PLEASE HELP!! ANY IDEAS??

Hello, began service in February 2014 was told I would get my deposit back after a year of making payments on time. In March 2015 I called Verizon to ask about the deposit and was told it had been automatically sent to the original account on February 13, 2015 although this bank account had been closed six months prior to the money was deflected and went back to Verizon I contacted the bank and spoke with them they went they review the records extensively over the course of four hours the bank representative requested that Verizon contact them and provide proof of the transaction. I have spoken to Verizon customer service numerous times, besides being transferred from financial services to customers services and telling the story again and again and again and again I still have yet to understand where my money is. Now I'm running out of patience and I feel wronged and am considering closing my account and posting this story on every forum out there. so I'm posting this in the hopes that there is maybe one Person that works for Verizon that will actually look into this matter and follow through until A. The deposit is returned or B. Provides a logical reason why not.
