Re: Verizon.... Sucks Yes.. They actually to
Jan 3, 2010, 12:26 AM
in the Apple iPhone 3GS forum

OK.. Where to we start... Sprint has Pretty Crappy Service... And, Verizon is worse... ATT is marginal, but, still the best.. Verizon has great marketing... A sucky company with great marketing always looks good.... I have had all 3.. Sprints Pretty Crappy Service... Verizons lies and now ATT with the Iphone... Sure Verizon has a huge slow, slow slow 3G network... But, the real world speeds are comparable to edge.. Not 3g.. Verizon Coverage... It is good, but, their maps ...

VZW - Slipping Bigtime
Nov 1, 2007, 8:27 PM
in the Verizon forum

Has anyone noticed.. VZW is slipping bigtime.. First.. Has Customer Service been outsourced.. They are soooooo nice.... But, they don't even know and can't even explain the plans anymore.. And, if you have an issue, the reply is duhhhhh... Have you noticed.. Voicemails sometimes aren't delivered for hours... Sometimes, the next day.. Have you noticed.. Dropped calls.. Have you noticed.. Send, but, no connect.. Have you noticed.. Voice quality has slipped... ATT now blows VZW away... VZW just blows.. Have you noticed.. VZW Sucks...

Yea... But, cool phones are only cool if they work.. If they drop calls... Lock up.. and, are screwed by the VZW UI... Forget it..

VZW - Simply The Best
Oct 7, 2007, 10:09 AM
in the Verizon forum

It doesn't get any better than VZW... They are, Simply the Best.. If you like dropped calls.. Pressing send, and no connection.. No ring on incoming calls.. Stick with Verizon.. They remind me of that commercial where someone is talking, and talking, and talking.. But, dead air.. The call was dropped.. Customer service... Very inconsistant.. You could call in 5 times with the same question and get 5 totally different answers.. Call up and see if they offer the new SG7 ...

Hey.. If you like dropped calls.. Send - no connect.. Phone cutting in/out.. No ring on incoming calls, then, a voicemail.. Inconsistant customer service... Do it.. Go with verizon.. Verizon is like that new TV Commercial... The call and clarity is perfect.. You are talking and talking.. Then, you realize the call dropped and you are taking dead air.. Not saying ATT is any better.. We all know it is not.. But, at least ATT is consistant and doesn't ...

Re: premere upgrade contract question - One thing to remember
Oct 7, 2007, 9:59 AM
in the AT&T forum

One thing to remember on the premere site is that list price on items you buy is about twice what the regular site shows.. So, if you are making purchases.. You get huge discounts, but, reality is, you are paying the same.. Except the 22% service discount..

Re: verizon move its service???

in the Verizon forum

I am having the same issues... Have had open tech tickets for about 6 months now... Have been repeatedly told I have full EV-DO coverage in my area... Techs actually came out and found there are more holes in my city than Swiss Cheese... Caused by their move from 1X to EV-DO... One possible issue is that this move has caused the phones to start fighting with themself.. THE EV-DO signal is not strong enough for service, yet, it ...

Re: RAZR Maxx Sucks!! EV-DO causes Problems
May 5, 2007, 7:37 PM

Yes.. The phone sucks.. Partly because it is Motorola, and, because it is EV-DO only, and, VZW's EV-DO coverage has alot of blind spots.. VZW said it would work in my area, but, I do not have EV-DO..

Illinois House passes handset lemon law
May 5, 2007, 7:30 PM
in the Verizon forum

It's about time... The Illinois House passed a cellphone lemon law, a measure that would allow consumers with defective handsets to break wireless service contracts without penalty. The House bill, approved by a 72-to-43 margin Thursday, now heads to the Senate for consideration. “When someone buys a cellphone that turns out to be defective, they have to go back to the provider for a repair or replacement,” said Rep. Susana Mendoza, a Democrat who represents Chicago. “When this happens repeatedly, it ...

No incentive for qualty of service
Mar 3, 2007, 7:54 PM
in the Verizon forum

There are many posts complaining about the various carriers.... But, what everyone forgets, is, when they all suck, there is no incentive for 'Quality of Service'. Which is why Verizons service is marginal at best... Poor quality Customer Service and Product.. But, when everyone else sucks even worse.. There is no incentive for improvement.. But wait.. If VZW doesn't suck up Alltel or US Cellular... Things could change.. They might have to offer actual customer service.. They might ...

Well, did it ever occur to you morons to include in your nightly routine of connecting it to the charger to reset it first?

Don't do the update... You will be sorry.. Since I updated, dropping every call.. Constantly connected to the internet - battery life goes from 2 days to 5 hours, if you call into someplace that requires phone prompts, the phone doesn't send the tones... Called Palm, they said Verizon supports the phone, called Verizon and they said it is a palm issue, to watch their website.. Was told per VZW policy, there would be no credit for lost service.. ...

Actually... VZW does not make the phones and is under no obligation to replace them.. After 7 V710's, I was told repeatedly there were no issues with the phone and that it would not be replaced anymore... After numerous calls to customer service, they sold me the LG8100 at 25% off... I paid with that discount $399.00... Needed a working phone.. Just to find I could have paid retail at $299.00... Then a call to customer service said, I ...

Until you make any changes to your contract... Also, did you notice any changes require a 10 year extension... Plus $500.00 contract change fee...
