Re: Verizon bundles
Thanks everyone. So basically Freedom essentials is about $60 ($45 + ~$15 fees). I'm not sure I see the value in any Verizon package because of that. Any break you get just offsets the ridiculous landline price and fees. I think I'll just stick with my voip and go a la carte.
On a separate note, why isn't the FSLC disclosed? Just to pull the wool over our eyes? I mean, after all, it's the same for every US customer (hence federal). I mean, I understand they don't want to disclose local fees since they vary by state/county/town. |

The advantages to weigh with the triple are a proper connection to 911 if you need it, and the BBU on the ONT will keep the phone up for a while if the data connection is lost. It's a personal judgment call. If you go triple over voip, Vz wins, as they lock you in for 1 - 2 years, and you get no price increases during that term. Without phone you may be subject to whatever data, TV price increases come along. |

The battery backup is only for the phone when the power goes out.
You can have two or all three without being in a combo package. You have to explicitly enroll in a bundle to get the discounts. |
