My husband and I are also upset with Verizon and their required fees for the new phones..Like Rich my husband is a truck driver and I ride with him. We live in our truck and it is important to be able to stay in touch with the family and be able to make calls from where ever we are. We also “need” internet access and have their Mifi modem which costs us $60.00 extra a month and we are paranoid about going over our given MB so no uploading or downloading un necessarily..The expences are mounting and that is too bad.. thinking we are just stuck with paying more and more. oh and if I do get the 29.99 required phone it would cost another 30.oo each phone if I use it as a modem for my computer…Can you say the consumer is screwed…Oh well gonna look into other companies and talk to our co-workers for a better alternitive..funny all I really need my phone for is to talk, text and send pictures..any suggestions?

My wife and I were w/Verizon for about 12 yrs. Wanted a data pkg., but it costs an xtra $30. bucks a month. Swicthed to Sprint– Boy; tooo many dropped calls where I know I could be talking if I were still w/Verizon. Think we’re going back to Verizon. Being a truck driver, you need to be able to reach somebody all the time.

I agree with Kathy. I’ve been with Verizon wireless for years and have the family plan. I’ve been very happy with their service up until now. Just when the country is trying to cut costs, and stay within a budget the have to ad new phones that REQUIRE a data package. When you try to speak to them about it, their attitude is not to help you but, too bad for you. I also am looking to switch or pay as you go. By the way I have no service where I live, so I have to shut my phone off every night or it drains the battery.

I have had ATT, T-Mobile and Verizon. My verizon wireless stinks as far as signal, I have tried 2 phones and went back 3 times to see why but can not change for another year. I will change sevice then. I have had ATT with bad service and several plans. For the price I will go back to T-Mobile as soon as I can.

I have been a customer of Verizon Wireless for 12 years. Their service is great. No complaints about their phones either. However, I have been noticing that Verizon is trying to cash in on data usage of their customers. Therefore, you can only purchase 3 phones that do not require a data package. I had a sales person tell me once, “Well Verizon isn’t a non-profit org. we have to make money somewhere.” This frightened me. Therefore, I have been shopping the other phone providers as well. As far as telephone service over all…. Verizon is still the top.

I’ve been w/ verizon for the past 3 yrs, and am very pleased overall. I’ve never used the other providers, but alson have no interest in doing so. I can say, from personal experience, I do get more signal than that of my coworkers and friends. My phone works where everyone elses does, and even in places I’m not expecting it to, like smaller, less populated areas. The main con I have against verizon is no rollover minutes. The iPhone deal, I wouldn’t even get 1 just cause I don’t wanna have exactly what everyone else has.
