Re: [billing] New DSL Rate Hike
Got the e-mail this AM. 
How does this affect those of us grandfathered at the $29.95 rate from day one?
Anyone know? |

2 edits | That's what I am (or thought I was grandfathered in), I've had Verizon DSL since the week it came to my area. I'm currently on hold with a wait time of 'zero minutes'?!?
Edit: After about 15 mins on hold, I finally got to talk to someone. I was told that there was no grandfathering and if I was promised the $29.95 price I was mis-informed, and the lowest price I could get would be $31.95 a month with a yr committment BUT my speed would increase for free to 3.2 from 1.5. I asked what the price would be if I kept the 1.5 and she said it would be $31.95 as well, but if I wanted something lower I could go to the 700 speed. I ended the call by telling her I'd think about it, I plan to call back later today and see what other story I can get with someone else. |

I was grandfathered, but it didn't matter for me....$33.61 is what I now pay for 1 year commitment. I went around with them on the phone about the raise in price, but didn't get very far. I could have pushed it to retention but didn't want to go through the aggrevation for a few bucks.
keep in mind I got a solid 3.0 connection, having very minimal problems over the years, a couple glitches over 7 years of service. I have satellite TV (which I like), so switching to comcast is hardly an option. All or most of my neighboring towns have fios, I'm still waiting here in Souderton.I guess verizon isn't greasing enough local palms to get them to move? 
I guess I'm now relagated to being on fios watch..... |
