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 ? -- They Live... We Sleep...
Spreading the wealth around never results in a better outcome for people. It always results in destruction.

 | reply to iansltx 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. |

It's a business decision that they chose to make. 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. |
