Re: Beware of VERIZON'S THIEVERY!

Do you honestly think that the mechanism that bills these calls
is smart enough to know if you were successful - or not?

Please get real - you called 411, you got connected - you got charged.
The charge is for the call - and that is how it's billed - real simple.

*****ing about this is moronic and shows a high level of naiveté.
