Verizon Wireless... ick

I went with them for the FIOS service. We had Comcast which I really hated. Yes they are expensive! But customer service is really good. More then a cable company. True fiber optics. True ditgital phone. Super fast internet. They run the line in to your basement. Something Comcast can't do.

I live in a large metropolitan area that is filled with verizon subscribers. Verizon purports to have the best coverage. I was amazed at why I got so many dropped calls in my home (land line) and my Verizon phone (about 9 years ago). They could never figure it out for me.
I dropped Verizon cellular (and I have a good carrier with excellent coverage for way less money).
I have Fios (internet/tv). I used to have their landline but I dropped it because my calls would drop at any given time. My daughter still has their landline service and her calls drop. I told her to dump it. I don't miss my verizon phone services one bit.

I have no choice now. I lived in a large urban area where I mostly had ATT & was happy, but could have gone with T-Mobile or Metro PCS or Straight Talk as well.
I moved to a rural area where there is a huuuuge difference between Verizon and every other company, so I'm stuck :-(

I don't find Verizon expensive at all. My husband and I pay under $100.00 per month for 2 cell lines, unlimited texting, unlimited talking, no long distance and 6 gigs of shared data which is more than enough for us.
I would never have any other cell carrier. I know too many people with Sprint and AT&T who complain constantly about dropped calls, etc. We never have a problem.
The biggest racket Verizon has is the cell phones through say Best Buy, etc. There is no such thing as getting a phone for 1 cent. You are paying much, much more for that phone.

I don't understand what the 'story' is here, I've been a long time Verizon customer and have no complaints with the fees.....

Ditto, except we have 8 gigs. When I was working in New Orleans post Katrina, only those of us who had Verizon had service.
Granted that was a while ago, but since I live in a majorly hurricane prone area, and only have mobile phone service - I'm sticking.
Isn't choice great?

I wish FIOS was an option where we live.
