So i was actually was employed by vzw and after i left the company i learned alot of how money hungry this company is .. I had 5 lines with vzw when i left.. And my monthly bill was $200 plus every month. I had navigation and select plan.. And my contract was going to end 09.

Well you know I paid etf for all 5 phones totaling to $700 plus. ANd i gladly switch to att. With roll over and much much much better selection on phones..the cost of switching over was nothing.

vzw phones; ha ha what a joke.. you advertise it like it was best thing that ever come with.

ie- lg chocolate ?? att sony ericson 580I is truly the most converged mp3 phone there is and it plays FM radio.

Uhmm ... last time I checked Verizon Wireless is a FOR PROFIT company, not a NGO. I think they are doing their business correctly.

Why have a selection of super advanced phones that only a 1% niche market really cares about, while 99% of the Verizon Wireless customer base, in addition to the United States market base, only care about phones that work instead of features?

Sure, your rant would play well in Japan, Australia, EU, Middle East. But welcome to America where they don't give a crap about phones. It's a reality, it's a constant. Face it. Verizon Wireless is smart. Instead of trying to change that mentality, they are simply providing devices that are geared towards that market.

However, as more people are beginning to r...

they are screwing people yet they still manage to have the lowest churn rate. and I'm not too sure if the figures have changed since then, but VZW services and products still bring in a higher rate of return than AT&T.

I think they are doing something right. Man I'd imagine if you were a CEO for a Wireless giant, you would manage to bring every cool phone to the US, do no contract, and drive that company into the ground.

AH AMPS...part of the vast Veriaon network on paoer..of course ou cannot use any services on it..In fact you have to be in an extendted enhanced network to use some services...but only if you are on a certain plan........Verizon uses 5 FIVE maps for the service capabilities they provide....FIVE different coverages...LOL The they add them all up and claim they have the largest network....

huh? What are you talking about, he said Amp'd.. That is not the same thing as amps. We are all so happy that you like gsm, that is great.. I think it sucks and sounds awful. But if it works for somebody I have no problem with that.

What is your obsession with bashing cdma, does it acomplish something? Are you single handedly going to put verizon out of business? Tell me what I'm missing here.

AJ/Myron as ATT CEO would be AWESOME... that place would crash and burn within 3 months, as Myron made bizarre speeches about how "we're not a commie socialist facist phone company." 🤣

Wall Street analyst would write reports with bylines like, "This guy is f***ing nuts." 😁

A huge effect. The more customers GSM Carriers get from Verizon the more European phones companies like Nokia will release in the US and the lower the price.

LOL a CDMA Nokia is an after thought for Nokia. Probably one of the "free" low rent phones.
Crippled JAVA, No file transfer. Why bother? Unless of corse it was free.

The problem with nokia and cdma started a long time ago. Before all the feature rich phones, nokia made the worst phones on cdma except maybe audiovox. I used to love nokia when I sold tdma and then when I made the switch to verizon nokia sucked. Since then there have only been a few phones here and there and they were all just ok.

Another thing is that back in the day nokia and qualcomm couldn't get along so I think that was the biggest reason they didn't make a whole lot of cdma phones.

Sigh, Myron, you don't even know what you're talking about, as usual. The 6256 had completely UNCRIPPLED bluetooth, yep, on Verizon. I used to transfer files all the time. 🙂

It was a good phone in a lot of ways, Nokia just screwed up real bad on the hinge. Kinda disappointing, I expected better from them.

after you leave the company your emp accouts gets to a consumer act for 30 days. within 30 days you have a choice to go to other company and not pay etf. i didn;t port over my numbers within the 30days and after 30 days i paid etf..so you don't know what you are talking about..2.7 for the past quarter.. i was possible responsible for half of it.. ha ha ha ..how many net adds did verizon had ?

Sounds like someone couldn't meet his quota and got let go. Sorry dude. And just how did you get 5 employee lines again? It's obvious that you're smarter than all us VZW emps. I mean, you gladly paid ETFs when you could have bailed for free. That's some out-of-the-box thinking there. I don't think I ever would have thunk of that. Of course, not being in sales, I'm not worried that I'm going to get canned for two sub-par months in a row. That said, I do hope you make lots of money selling for AT&T. They have some very nice products and a very nice network. There's plenty of room for good competition between the big two.

Why do I care If Verizon failed we would go the way of Europe. No free phones. Which in my case would be fine becasue I buy unlocked unbranded phones.
