A family that was hit with a $18,000 bill from Verizon isn't having much luck disputing the bill. So far, the best offer Verizon has come up with is to cut the bill in half, so the family would have to “only” pay $9,000 for a month.
The St. Germains’ problem erupted in 2006, shortly after Bob St. Germain renewed his wireless phone service contract, which included his cellphone and cellphones for his son and daughter. The two-year wireless promotional period allowing free downloads had expired, and under the terms of the new contract, Verizon began charging for downloaded kilobytes.
