Cheap

If they would stop being so goddamn cheap and not use some two-bit laborer with minimal training to do the installs, maybe the compliance rate would be much higher.

Cheap bastards!

I don't know about installs in NY, but here in Indiana when I was installed all the installs were done by VZ employees, not two-bit laborers.

All installs are done by employees of Verizon. No contractors and all union.

Yep... Here in Northern New Jersey, everything was done by a knowledgeable VZ employee who knew what he was doing... And everything is grounded correctly as far as I can see.

Getting FIOS was the best decision I ever made in terms of a service in my life.... It just works... I have yet to have any serious problems with it. I can only recall one 10 minute outage at 1 AM for maintenance when they rolled out the new TV GUI. Compared to cable TV / Internet (which was a nightmare), FIOS is simply AWESOME! I used to be down at least 5-10% of the time on cable, and the VOD rarely worked... Despite the cable company being out here numerous times!

You have NFC what you're talking about. VZ uses full-time techs for their install work.

i dont know about nyc but here in nj my fios install involved two trucks, a bunch of verizon techs and what i think was either a verizon electrician or engineer and it took over 8 hours.

All I have is a 1 bedroom apt.
