Verizon charged us erronously for a modem they had confirmed receipt of on the phone with us. They charged us $99 dollars even though they had confirmed receipt of the modem and we did not owe the charge. They then kept us on the phone for an excess of four hours the first time, and three hours the second time. The employees were rude, refused to connect us with a supervisor until we finally reached the one decent employee who said we would receive a refund by check within seven to ten days. Seven days later at 8pm a rude employee from Verizon called demanding we have our bank write a letter on bank letterhead saying they are unable to accept a direct refund to our account or they would not refund our money via check which they had already agreed to do seven days prior. Our bank informs me they are able to accept a direct refund and will not write any such letter as it is untrue. I do not want a credit to my account. I am cancelling service with them due to this billing fraud. What options do I have? Thank you so much. I am very frustrated.

Edgemont Senior Center, Director, Carolyn (?)
Harrisburg, PA charged $20 for trip to Englishtown, NJ. Carolyn told me to be at the Sr Center at 7:15 am. Van to transport us was defective and my friend and we waited for alternative vehicle. Carolyn said she would not honor any refund. We arrived at Englishtown approximately an hour before the market closed. The trip home took 4 hours +. My friend and I want our $20 back. Do we have any recourse?
Thank you.

I have a house in tobyhanna, pa. School taxes have gone up and up and up even though there is a decline in students enrollment. In calling the tax assesment office asking how a 20 ft addition would affect my taxes i was told it would be an extra 200 or 300 extra. My taxes went from $3200. to $4800. residents in my area have had enough. I would like to start a class action suit against the school district and monroe county to force them to lower home owners responsiblities to the school system cost. My kids are homeschooled so we don’t even use the school system. How can i go about this?

Excel homes awarded me 100,000 towards a modular home project last year. Now, after only being weeks away from our delivery date of the project, we received a letter last Friday stating the company had been sold suddenly and the new co. Excel Homes GROUP was not going to honor the obligation. we have invested at least 20,000 dollars of our own money in preparing the site and in boro sewage permits. Is this legal?cwna

My township charges a 10% penalty for real estate and school district taxes which are late. Even if you are ten days late, the penalty is 10%. I believe this penalty is excessive and goes against any standard business practice. No business charges this type of late charge. It is also a tax on a tax. What can I do?
