How does she do that? And I mean without an argument.

Cancel ...what???
Verizon phone service? Verizon FIOS? Verizon DSL?

They probably won't argue about it much as long as she is ready and willing to pay whatever amount they say she owes, including any early termination fee if she has made a long-term agreement of some sort.

You can bet that if she's in a contract, she will pay an early termination fee. Tell her to read her contract.

i too have verizon and have had for twelve years, i'm talking about any of the new phones you buy now. i don't have internet with mine but it's time to get a new phone and a lot of the ones now you have to get a data pkg ( internet) with. like the lg choc touch when it first came out a short time ago you didn't have to buy data but now if you want that phone buying the data pkg is a must. I have no complaints against verizon it's self just some of the way there doing things. my plan is a family plan ( 2 of us ) with unlimited text. But in order to get the the friends and family i would have to go to 1400 minutes. If you already have these phones your under the grandfather clause and don't have to buy the data but when it's time to renew your plan then you have to switch to data if it's one of those phones.

Verizon Unethical Sales

That's why I drop companies and services that are too complicated and that I have to struggle with to get a good rate. (Not to mention adequate customer service.) Life is too short to have to police everybody. If a company wants my business and my $$ they have to give good service and not have hugely complicated structures in which the customer is entered into a maze that keeps ever-spiraling upward. In a competitive economy, the smart companies will realize this. Even land phone companies, which were once monopolies, are no longer able to dictate because we are developing alternative choices all the time. I have Verizon as my land phone and received (and am still receiving) a ton of ads to use their DSL internet. So I gave it a try. First they brought used and faulty equipment, then I could not reach them for customer service. Every night for two weeks we were on the phone, first holding a half hour or more just to get customer service. Throughout this time, the recording continually told us to contact them by internet - but we never could get ON their internet. Then finally we were connected to people in India who were not really able to help. After two weeks, I finally cancelled the service - and got a whopping bill for "terminating my service early". Uh huh, we never once GOT any service. That was more than a year ago and the bill has still is in dispute. So my point is, no, I don't have time to deal with companies like this. Maybe they do fine in an area of the country that are less populated, but my experience and that of several people I know, has not been one that would lead us to continued use of this company.

If this were mine, I wouldn't want it left like that. The insulation shouldn't be touching or so near to the box, it's like wrapping it in a blanket. Can you do one of the following: 1) Is there enough slack in the three cables to pull it down and put it lower, on a high stool or chair? If you think of it as a book standing on its end, it can be turned so that the part that says Verizon is the top so it's sitting flat like a book on a table. Or, 2) Have someone make the "shelf" wider (extend it to the right, in the direction and beyond the bottom right corner of the photo) and lay the device turned flat on that. You'd only need something less than 6 inches and there's very little weight to support. Failing those, call them back and tell them the install isn't acceptable. I think you're 100% correct in not like this, I don't like it either. Good luck.

My IPhone related meltdown today at Verizon

My DH and I both have 7’s and haven’t had any issues. I’m a huge Apple fan only because they do everything I need or want them to do seamlessly. That said, I would NEVER EVER buy a phone for a 1,000 and I think it’s hideious that they feel justified to charge that.. We also have Verizon and have over the years been told MANY untruths by sales people trying to make a sale. I seem to remember something about them working for commission so from my perspective seems like Verizon tends to propigate it. We bought our last phone at the kiosk in Costco, it was a good experience, but if something needs fixing I don’t trust easily and will go to the Apple Store.

Just found this post. Our son has to move and has 4 months left on his Verizon contract for Fios (Triple Play). He is moving to a new apartment which already has Comcast. Does anyone know if you still have to pay termination fee if you don't live at the place anymore?

Aren't questions like these best answered by calling the company directly?

I would think a call to Verizon would give you the correct info on what happens if you move before the contract is up. Verizon has tons of forums for everything on their site with other users helping. Maybe if you explain the situation Verizon would work with you. Mary

I don't know why people sign all of these contracts. I have dealt with two cable companies and ATT, and never had to sign a contract. I would not do business with any server who wanted a contract. My neighbor has a contract with dish and her tv reception has never been any good and she finally paid out of it and signed another contract with someone else.

Because if you want the triple play deal you have to sign for a year or what ever to get it for $99 or that's what is was at one time here in the adds all the time. I have time warner cable and internet, no contract needed and don't have a home phone and even if I did take their phone no contract to sign for their triple play deal. Mary

Cox bundles here, but still no contract as far as I know, it has a cheaper monthly rate when you bundle. I went back to a land line phone and lucked out with a 2 year promotion of $9 a month for their best phone service and no contract.
