| next phase? attack of the UN-FEES! Digital Voice and Cable-Tv have both seen NEW increases in your bottom line pricetag. A new FEDERAL Regulatory Recovery Fee is making the rounds for the Cable-Tv portion of the bill. over the past year my bill overall rose about 50 cents in these fees.
The FIOS product is getting more expensive and stale (stagnant internet speed offerings, admob local ads, limited voicemail storage, etc).. so just having the opportunity to get a better deal than comcast's and at&t's price gouge and capped services is an improvement even at higher costs (they set a very low bar)-- however Verzion has no interest in deploying FTTP services to you even at the higher prices. They want to offer wireless at the industry imposed $10 per gigabyte beyond bulk data purchases the way you purchase buckets of use or lose voice minutes.
Verizon needs to lose some of the FIOS customers they have to begin to change this attitude of overcharging and maybe things will change for everyone. $120 for triple play 25/25? rediculous when they began offering it for under $100 2 years ago (the $99 charge doesn't include set-top rental taxes and fees.. that's ANOTHER $20). |
