I've been planning on calling Verizon for a while because I noticed that my phone bill is about twice what a new customers would be. I'm not in any contract so I can change at any time, so contract is not an issue. I just called Verizon and asked about a new plan and they were able to offer me what everyone else would be paying along with $5 a month off for a year, which was part of a new customer's benefits. Part of because a new customer also gets a compaq netbook computer along with their new account.
Now I'd be more than happy to sign up for a 1 or 2 year contract if I got the same (or better) than a new customer but the answer to that was no. Even after mentioning the desire to look over other companies plans, all I got was an offer of another $5 off for a year. After over 14 years of service with the company, all I get is a thank you and a tiny offer to stay on. Am I being petty over a little computer worth only a few hundred dollars? No. I'm being petty because I feel slighted. scorned. marginalized. "we got you now we can forget about you" So now the question is, who has better service? -- Michael ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
