Welcome to the wonderful world of Verizon Wireless! They simply are not
interested in anything they can't charge you for. Even if your phone,
as manufactured, is capable of transferring your contact information
via; e.g. a USB cable, they are quite likely to have blocked, disabled,
or removed the feature. The buck or two they will collect for
transferring this data over the air, multiplied by a few million
customers, works out to real money. They are not going to let you have
any alternatives that you don't pay them for!!

Next time, try a different service provider if you can. And do your
homework FIRST! Not all businesses display this sort of all out greed!
