I didn't get my prepaid Auto Pay bonus

I have two phones, one $60 one $45 plan.

I see that they both paid automatically, but the $45 plan phone didn't get the 1GB bonus data.

On that phone I see two messages. The first was "your $45 auto pay payment was processed". The next is "Auto REUP failed".

Thing is I can look at my payment history (and bank statement) and see the payment went in.

Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas?

The same thing happened to me! I know it says the extra GB of data will be added on once the first auto pay is successful, but I've had the plan for two months now, and I should have the extra data. I'm thinking maybe it takes awhile to kick in?

So I contacted support to resolve the issue. Service was not what I'd expect from Verizon (pretty bad).

The tech "Daniel" tried to convince me that the problem was on my side, and that I had used 1GB of data in a single day. Data remaining was 1009MB (1GB is 1024MB) Daniel said "you're have just over 1000MB so you used almost 1GB already"... that's just.... fail....

This is my wife's phone which was off most of the day or on the wifi network.she barely uses her phone, so 1 GB is ridiculous. Phone data usage was saying 9MB was used.

It seemed like he wanted to just close off and end the chat.

Even at the end after he added my missing 1GB he was trying to suggest I used more data than I actually did.

He then claimed that I need to turn off my data when I'm not using it to prevent that issue from happening - making up stuff when you don't know just makes more annoyed - say you're not sure but will investigate! I told him about getting a REUP failed message right after the autopay went through and he said it was a timing error without going into further details. I have non idea if this will happen again, and if I have to go through it next month.

This is my worst Verizon experience. They're usually on the ball and knowledgeable - tough I normally deal with their business side, for testing circuits
