Re: Triple play upgrade pricing Actually if you read Bobcat79  's post in that thread you will see they had a fee for POTs and discontinued it Feb 2005, versus 2004 for the wireless charge.

LOL, Bobcat79 managed to find his way back here after his dollarcide during the wayback machine snafu on here where we were stuck in 2010.  I never intended this thread to be a pissing match but must say it has been amusing.

| Hey guys, figured I would reply in this thread instead of making a new one. Current FIOS customer looking to switch back to CV. Got the following offer from someone I talked to initially a few months ago.
3 Boxes (DVR's that store your content in the cloud? Sounds good enough)
TP, of course
HBO, Showtime, Starz, Encore
Kindle Fire (unfortunately, I was told they aren't offering the $200 GC anymore)
The 2 kickers that are really enticing were:
1) Porting fee ($40) waived.
2) Unlimited international calling to Costa Rica (where my family is from) included with OV (my eyes kinda widened at that)
This if for $130 with taxes. Think I might jump on this. Just wondering, has that ugly interface changed at all? |

said by JoeyS59:(DVR's that store your content in the cloud? Sounds good enough) You'll be sorry. Everyone hates it. You'll wish you kept Fios.What's that, toilet paper? Really, I don't know what you're talking about.said by JoeyS59:1) Porting fee ($40) waived.
2) Unlimited international calling to Costa Rica (where my family is from) included with OV (my eyes kinda widened at that) I'd get both of these in writing. Everyone here says that porting fee is mandatory, and that unlimited calling only includes US, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands. Maybe the salesman thought that Costa Rica was part of Puerto Rico or the US VI. Don't be surprised if you end up paying an additional $20 per month and get only 250 minutes. See:

You have had both CV and Verizon, so you are in the best position to determine which is better for you. I think you will recognize CV as pretty much the same as when you left, although fewer people seem to have internet speed problems now with Docsis 3.
The "content in the cloud" sounds nice, but keep in mind it does not include pausing live tv - a feature we use a lot.
