Incorrect. The change penalty depends on the fare rules of the ticket. While $250 is common for ex-US tickets, tickets from other origins have widely differing penalties.
OP, just knowing that your ticket is V class is not enough information. The fare rules depend on the fare basis, not just the code. Just call and ask again.
