Verizon Faces $5,000 Fine for Each Virginia Directory Error

iWon Money & Investing

Verizon, one of the largest and most respected telephone directory publishers is in hot water in Virginia for the quality of their directories.

This article from Dow Jones, publishers of the Wall Street Journal documents the details.

Isn't it ironic that Verizon recently quadrupled the price they charge for directory assistance at the same time that they're in trouble for publishing inaccurate directories which force callers to dial directory assistance more often?

So many people question the value of the printed telephone directories, but I wonder how they would react if their business was no longer listed in print.
