Late fee · charged July 2, 2026
$12.00
$6.00 recovered
Start here, warmly.
Hi, my name is [your name] and I'm calling about a late fee of $12.00 charged to my account on July 2, 2026. I'd like to ask whether Vireo Wireless can remove that charge as a one-time courtesy. I know you may not be able to, and I appreciate you taking a look either way.
The reason they should say yes.
I understand my record isn't perfect, but I'm actively working to keep this account in good standing and I'm asking for some goodwill on this particular charge. The underlying balance has been paid in full, so the only thing outstanding is the fee itself.
Ask for the next best thing.
If a full waiver isn't possible, is there anything else you can do — a partial credit, a smaller courtesy adjustment, or a statement credit on my next bill? I'd also like to know if there's a retention or billing department that handles exceptions like this. Whatever you can offer, I'd appreciate it.
Politely ask for a supervisor.
I understand this may be outside what you're authorized to approve, and I'm not upset with you at all. Could you please check with a supervisor or transfer me to someone who can review a one-time courtesy waiver? Before we go further, may I have your name and a reference or ticket number for this call?
Confirm and document.
Thank you for your time — I really do appreciate you looking into it. Could you confirm what was decided and when I should expect to see it on my account?
Always note the rep's name and a reference number before you hang up.
