A VZW Bill is the statement associated with your Verizon Wireless account. It shows the amount you owe, your payment due date, and the charges associated with your Verizon services.
Reviewing your bill regularly can help you understand changes in your monthly cost and identify unfamiliar charges.

Your Verizon bill can contain several types of charges, depending on the services and devices associated with your account.
Common sections can include:
- Current balance
- Previous balance
- Payments and credits
- Monthly plan charges
- Device payment charges
- Taxes and government fees
- One-time charges
- Add-ons and other services
