Re: Verizon! What you believe, and what is actual are two different things. It's a common mistake that people around these parts like to make. What you believe is "common sense" doesn't always matter in reality.
You also "think" it's business right to make a last ditch offer.. the law differs with that opinion.
I assume since you believe that soliciting for business is always "OK" since it's done all the time.. I suggest you try this. Spend many years in college, get your degree and pass the bar to become a lawyer. Next, go find car accidents and try to pass out your business card (an advertisement) to one of the people involved in the accident and see what happens to you.
There are rules about how businesses (and a lawyer is a "business") for good reasons. The fact that rules were put in place to bar losing phone providers from soliciting during the process of porting, and up to 60 days after, was put in place for a good reason. You may not think so, but both the consumer is harmed as is the winning provider.
I will not spend my time explaining why..
You continue to confuse so many issues. You think this is about the consumer getting the rock bottom price all the time. You most likely think this is all about the consumer getting a better deal by allowing a bidding war. It's not. This is about companies offering ALL consumers equal products in a way that is far. You can't legally sell a product to one customer at a price that you are not willing to sell it to another at the same price.. you need to read up on discrimination as well as other illegal practices. |
