Verizon Will Lose Customers

If i lived on the east coast i would love to have alltel service with my circle. If Verizon tosses the plan then I can only see many of the former alltel subscibers bailing(if other carriers service is decent).
Verizons on the verge of losing a whole lotta money with this unless they get a little more loyal to the customers. Now if the merger was the other way around then yea, they would have the offerings that appeal to customers.
That 80 million will drop to about 77-78 million and i see regional carriers and maybe tmobile added more to their belt. Maybe Sprint also(Maybe) ha

Depends on where you are in the country I suppose, but Verizon has the better brand/name recognition in most areas of the country.

I always considered the "my circle" deal a little too frustrating anyway. better to expand the circle to include far more than a couple of people. It's a gimmick for those that know few people.

Im a alltel rep and the mycircle is what sells it and prices are about the same for more but everyone in my area has verizon so i would consider that over alltel ill get less mins but more in calling. If verizon takes on mycircle there will be no stopping them not that there is now!

oh i dont know, maybe because all the people i call aren't covered under that 83 million mobile to mobile count, but that's just a guess. Some people don't want to use their anytime minutes to call house phones or businesses.
