Charged for PPV fight I did not order or watch

I was charged $99.99 for a PPV boxing fight on May 2nd that I neither order or watched. I hate boxing. When I initially called the customer service rep said she couldn't see how it was ordered and said my account would be recredited the charge plus taxes. The next day I received a voicemail saying the credit was denied. When I called back the Verizon rep said I ordered it on my remote and watched it from 6p-2a. What kind of boxing fight lasts 8 hours! I asked to cancel my account but apparently customer service has no authority to do so and has to transfer you. I was told that I was going to receive a call from someone who would assist in closing my account but I never received a call. I am through with Verizon's scams, untruthfulness and lies. I've filed a complaint with BBB and will go to my bank if Verizon doesn't drop the charge. I am extremely disappointed with Verizon and from reading these posts I am not the only victim of this Verizon scam. Awful customer service, I guess Verizon would rather steal money from its customers and lose customers to their competitors versus doing the right thing.
