Here is to hoping the 20/20 tiers get some lovin' as well.
Looks like the opposite. If the rumors are true, 20/20 becomes 25/15. Screw that.

I'm calling tomorrow to extend my contract for as long as possible for 20/20 speeds, in case this rumor turns out to be true. I can always upgrade later if the proposed (delayed) 25/25 comes to fruition later (which I'm starting to doubt).

I'm pretty sure 20/20 is not going away. 20/20 is going to be upgraded to 25/25 in August according to some people in the fios forum.

Hmm, it still seems weird to me.

So right now, we have:

20/5
20/20
50/20

If the rumors are right, that will become:

25/15
20/20
50/20

Until August, and then the rumor'd tiers are:

25/15
25/25
75/25

Now that looks ok I guess, but still the gap betwen the 1st and 2nd tiers is hardly there, compared to the current gap between 20/5 and 20/20. Likewise, 20/20 to 50/20 isn't as big a leap as 25/25 to 75/25.

I guess time will tell. I just wish I knew for sure whether 20/20 was going to be around or not.

I'll just call and extend my contract I guess and hopefully if it goes the way it normally does, I can just start a new contract in August so I'm not really doing anything but potentially extending my contract buy a few months.

It doesn't make sense to adjust the speeds twice within a period of just two months.
