Ok lol because Im a die hard Celtics fan. Hey at least you got a definite time frame. I get maybe in a few years. If the reason why they are stalling has to do with the landlord.

Anyone have any news on Sedgwick Ave, Zip code 10468. I have seen lots of Verizon trucks in the area lately.

Hey Ozz

did you ask any of the tech from VZ if they are putting up any fiber or just usual copper line repairs for the winter?

Anybody knows when Verizon FiOS will be available at Pelham Pkwy South, Bronx, NY 10462?
It's been a long time, I think is time it should be available where I live.
If there any info please post here.

Thanks!

Backbone cable for Riverdale should be placed by the end of November.

Good to hear but I wonder why the service still isn't available in my neighborhood? I live on Bedford Park Boulevard and according to Verizon's web site my building cannot get Fios.

I spoke with a Verizon rep on Sunday who said she was not aware of the CO on Tiebout Avenue being wired for Fios. It's possible it is wired but Verizon has yet to do any work running lines in the street.

At this point I don't know what to think or believe anymore regarding Fios availability in my neighborhood.

Fios is available out of Tiebout I've personally spliced about two or three jobs out of the CO. Tiebout is primarily apartment buildings so there is always the obstacle of getting the landlords permission to install the equipment.

I saw installers on Riverdale Ave in the 240s and 250s this weekend. I spoke with one of the crews, who confirmed they are laying the FIOS backbone for the neighborhood.

Nothing to report from Bedford Park for now. I know I've said this before but may be next year will finally see Fios for the rest of us.

I wonder what the hell is taking Verizon so long to offer Fios in Bedford Park (and by extension Kingsbridge, Fordham, and Norwood)?

So true DDG

I mean if it is because of the Landlords we still would see the fiber been put on the poles. Also is not the weather since is been pretty mild for winter.

Well.. Here's an encouraging update for folks in my neighborhood..

Verizon sent a letter in the mail stating they are needing permission to access the back of the premises at my house to install FiOS. As I explained earlier in the thread, my house sits in a section of property along with others that doesn't let Verizon get to the utility poles unless we allow entry to them.

According to the letter, they intend to begin construction on 2/27/2013.

Not that I have the itch to get FiOS anymore given my continued success in getting Cablevision double-play promo deals, but if I ever get the urge to tell CV to fuck themselves I will actually have an option to exercise if/when I do so.

Soooo.. People of Castle Hill in the Bronx.. You may soon get this letter in the mail after all. Good luck

This really bites bro. Two years already and nothing on our area. Yet you see verizon tech vans with the Fios logo all over it. Dang
