Re: Bad PR for Verizon

said by Zuidema :

Jimmy, I'm really not sure what your point is. Verizon sucks for a lot more reasons than just this predatory action against Vonage. And Verizon apparently does care that someone is using their wires to deliver phone service. Your car-stealing neighbor analogy makes no sense.

Vonage may have its flaws, but it pioneered VOIP and has brought the cost of land line service down to a reasonable level.
I think cable co need to join together to form one ultra-phone company, and data.

Even if you get vonage you still are paying either verizon or your cable company for internet access, I don't think they really care whether you go with someone else. I just look at it this way; if your neighbor was coming into your property and using your car without your permission would you not do something about this?. Some of you just dislike whoever is your provider so much what you can't intelligently analyze the situation

Beside Verizon's "were always better" attitude, and were the phone company!, "opps just lost Peoria. " mindset, I am grateful for cable voip. Hey verizon $20 a month unlimited, with voicemail and other features can you match ?
