Re: Penny wise and pound foolish?

said by bcronin:

I switched 3 lines from VZW to AT&T just to get the iPhone 3G. I was a VZW customer for at least 10 years. When they phoned me to ask why I switched and was there anything they could do to get me back, I said "Yeah, carry the iPhone.". They muttered something about Apple wanting too much control so it wasn't likely they'd carry it. I guess that extra bit of control is more valuable to them than the substantial subscriber losses they're suffering because they chose not to carry it. Tough business decision for sure. Hope it works out for them.
Yeah, like Verizon doesn't try to control and cripple the phones they already have.

Verizon had their chance and they said screw it and now they are paying for it. I had Verizon for many years until they made a mistake and REFUSED to correct it without extending my contract another 2 years. When I told them I was leaving, they said go ahead. Haven't looked back since.

Yeah, iPhone owners should be glad its not on the Verizon network due to them crippling everything. That's why Verizon is not even a consideration for me when my phone contract is up in 4-5 months with Sprint.

I will never be on Sprint again. Tmobile has no to very little 3G.
