Verizon Technician Makes a Mistake, but I get charged--Not Verizon

Enthusiast - Level 1
On March 7th a Verizon technician came to my house to install outlets.  I told him how many to install and where to install them.  Unfortunately, he forgot to install one.  I called to notify the technician and Verizon of the mistake and rescheduled another visit to install the other outlet.  I was told that I would not be charged again for the installation because it was Verizon's mistake.  That revisit occurred on April 22.  Unfortunately, I was charged for the revisit despite it not being justified and Verizon telling me that this would not happen.
 
I've tried the online chat, I've tried phone calls, I've tried emailing.  Nothing happens except being dismissed with incorrect information and/or false promises.
 
Billing information below was pulled up from Verizon's online billing.
