premium txt VERIZON. WTF??!?!?

Ive read on all these forums where people have the exact same problem as me.

my carrier is verizon. and for some strange reason, they keep txting my dad [who by the way... NEVER texts or signs up for anything using his cell] and on our bill it come up as premium txts. i took a look at his phone and there it was.

2 inbox message.. but none sent out.

i didnt open the txt, but i saw the # 654654 and # 33999. when i googled it there were forums full of people who had my same problem

went to verizons site and they said to do all these things.. and i did. ALL OF THEM. but we continued to get bombarded with these stupid fees that DONT EVEN MAKE SENSE!! my family is too caught up in other things to want our "daily horoscope" or "to find our true love"though txts... besides.... my dads FOB... makes me read it for him... so why would he subscribe to something IN ENGLISH?!?!?

i read this news article and a spokes woman Georgia Taylor says:

"If people have tried to opt out ... and they're still having problems, they should call Verizon," Taylor said. "If you're getting unwanted (text messages), we want to hear from you and we'll credit you."

http://www.seattlepi.com/lifestyle/336400_consumer23.html

so i did. and the rep TOTALLY blew me off. she was like "theres nothing i can do about it. its a 3rd party or wtv..".

IVE TRIED EVERYTHING! my brother even tried calling the 3rd party only to get their voicemail.

this is soooooooooooooo fuckin pissing me off.

CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE?

Verizon allows you to Block Premium Messaging.. And they are SUPPOSED to remove the charges if you claim to never have done it.. if they do not shape up then id Ship out and move to a different carrier.
