Re: Fiber optics are not cheap

Verizon is apparently paranoid that they won't get the cost of the equipment amortized by the next person who moves in. It's a business decision that they chose to make.

And like the leave tax in NJ, it had a wonderful effect. No one wants to move to NJ, because they leave, they get a penalty. Why would i sign up, if i have to pay a penalty if Verizon under-performs ?

Easy: you assume that Verizon doesn't under-perform

Oh I understand, but chances are that they will eventually get that back over the life of a house. I've had the service and loved it, but this sucks.

Verizon actually allows those who already have an ONT to sign up for new service with most of the new customer offers ($150 Visa or $30 for 6 months and 24 Month Price Guarantee) without a contract.

Now this is fair and they should be touting this to remove any backlash. Hopefully it's true and they'll catch up in the marketing department.
