Re: About time!!! said by VZ_Laird:All I can say is the companies doing all the false advertisement should be exposed for being the "snake oil salesmen" that they are. There is nothing more disgraceful than deceiving countless elderly and unknowledgable consumers purely out of greed. If the merits of your product can't sell it, then you should improve your product or play in a different league. Yeah, because we all know that Verizon never misled customers ever. They were lying to customers all over the place when they were the only phone option in town years ago. They used to play right into the fiber terminology before FIOS. I happen to remember them countering cable's advertisement years ago with the same claim when they compared their DSL service to cable's HFC plant. They had no problem playing the "We have fiber too!" card back then did they?
They also didn't have a problem taking PA taxpayers' money to build a fiber system which they pocketed without making good on their promise. It wasn't until they started drowning in their antique POTS system that they figured it was build or die.
But yeah, good ol' VZ never plays the "snake oil salesman", as you say. They are way too honest for that. |
