FiOS will never be available in my neighborhood

Approximately two years ago I asked a Verizon representative if FiOS would ever be available where I live. I considered him knowledgeable, informed, and honest.

He said that Verizon would "never" be installing or making FiOS available in the area where I live. For Verizon service the choice would all ways be DSL and nothing else. Fortunately I have for now a good cable alternative.

I was chatting informally to a Verizon employee in my neighborhood about FIOS.

When the sun is a lump of charcoal.

I've spent the past year trying to see what options my neighborhood has for any sort of an upgrade albeit DSL/FIOS since we're serviced by nothing other than verizon POTS. Verizon has a truck stationed in the front of our neighborhood working on the phones at least 5 days a week, its a never ending project i guess.

I've gone as far as reaching out to the regional represenative for MD/VA and the FCC. The only response I've received was a resounding No from the regional rep, and a letter that said sorry but you're never in the plans. Go figure why i've cancelled our telephone service.

Ultimately I understand their business model, just not that they'd rather pay someone to spend 8 hours a day 5 days a week to work on 30 year old copper.
