Definitive Revised Schedule 14A Filed March 28, 2007 File No. 1-08606 Dear Ms. Krebs: I am writing to confirm our telephone conversation on October 2, 2007 with respect to the timing of Verizon Communications Inc.’s response to the Staff’s comment letter, dated September 27, 2007 (the “Comment Letter”), concerning executive compensation and other related disclosures in the revised definitive proxy statement filed by Verizon with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2007. The Comment Letter requests that Verizon respond to the Staff’s comments by October 26, 2007. In our phone conversation, I requested that the response date be extended to November 6, 2007, so that the responses may be reviewed by the Human Resources Committee of Verizon’s Board of Directors. The Human Resources Committee, which is responsible for designing and overseeing Verizon’s compensation policies and practices, is scheduled to meet next on November 1, 2007. Securities and Exchange Commission Division of Corporation Finance Office of the Chief Counsel October 4, 2007 Page 2 In response to my request, you stated that Verizon could respond to the Comment Letter by November 6, 2007. Thank you for your assistance in this matter. Very truly yours, /s/ Mary Louise Weber Mary Louise Weber Assistant General Counsel cc: Ivan G. Seidenberg Marianne Drost
