Oh, the irony is delicious...

Basically, my cell phone contract ended months ago, and I have yet to upgrade due to the lack of "creativity" that Verizon has applied in selecting its phones.

I know I have championed their reliability... yadayada, but I am developing an interest in Cinguar's phones and cheaper plans🙁

The mighty have fallen 🙁




I was thinking about this until I realized how unreliable their service still is around the Washington D.C Metro Area....🙁

I have developed a thing for non-flip phones and Verizon doesn;t carry any good ones....🙁
 
I've had one too many embarrassing accidental calls to ever go with a non-flip phone again.
 
We have had a Verizon account for over 15yrs... way back when they were Bell Atlantic Mobile.

A few weeks ago, I had a problem with my phone, so I took it in... they service ppl said... you are only three days from your contract expiring... we have new phones coming out... wait the three days, come back and work out a deal for a new phone.. (we have three phones with all the extras and spend about $175.00 per month)... so I go back the following week and they told me that my phone is no longer under warranty, and they dont have to fix it, I will not get a new free phone and the person who made that promise was fired for doing things like that.

So, I am looking for a new company, too. I will call customer service and see what they have to say and if they dont give me a new phone, I am outta there. I was kinda hoping the LG VX8000 would come out and haggle for one of those, but it is taking way too long.

I don't get what was wrong in the above story. The guy told you to come back to work out a deal for a new phone. Did he mention anything about a free phone?? I should note that usually they will work out a deal before the contract expires if you agree to renew. Maybe THAT is why he got fired - poor salesmanship.

they know an employee told you this and they won't take care of you?

Get the treo 650 for verizon...that is one badass phone.

That is way too much. I'll probably stick to phone convs and IMs for now. I don't need all of that, but I do care about the aesthetics...🙁

<--has a new "Far Side" planner that he's itching to use.
