Called my cell phone, no message. I called back, it's Verizon payment center asks for 10-digit phone number to "get started." I typed in the number that called me and it asked for a 4-digit security number. I typed "0000" twice, which of course it didn't recognize, then it transferred me to a representative with a foreign accent. I asked why I was getting calls when I don't have a Verizon account, and at first she said "when you loaned your phone to someone then they might have made a call." I told her I never loan my phone to anyone. She said, "sometimes people give us a call back number that isn't theirs." She apologized and said I won't receive any more calls from them. I highly doubt that but what else can we do when these companies ignore the national do not call registry.
I've had my cell phone for 8 years through AT&T, there is no reason for Verizon to be calling me. Not once have I done business with them, and if anyone used my number as a call-back number then Verizon is highly mistaken.
