| Pricing... "Currently their fastest tier, 50Mbps/20Mbps, costs $139.95 bundled with Verizon phone service, or $144.95 without."
That may be the "list" price, but it's still available for $90 (where there's "competition"), which you won't see till you actually try to purchase it. |

It shows up online in my area for $90($89.95) when you price it out. I don't think you have to be purchasing it to see that price. |

If I attempt to look at the pricing when I am signed into Verizon, a page comes up and asks me to call for help. Otherwise I can only see the standard pricing that was reported in this news article. I was not aware of the discounted price until after I attempted to upgrade my service. |

I think we're talking about the same thing. When I've gone to the Verizon site in the past--not giving it my specific location (though it knows generally where I am), all I see is the $140. Once I give my address, though, via the sign up process, it comes back with the $90. You could call that "pricing it out"--going through the purchase process without actually completing it beyond getting the specific cost. |
