Verizon Wireless 3

Your paying for customer service and some of the best reception... BUT

1) Its expensive. I pay 20-30% more than most of my friend's plans with other providers. I pay about $85 while i have friend with similar minute plans paying $60-70.

2) insurance policy stinks. I recently had replace my enV2 (bought it new). You pay $5/mo. Most people will lose or need a replacement (outside of basic warranty) maybe once a year. However on top of the $5/mo you also have to pay $50. Most phone retail for $100-200 so your really not saying money. In the end, I paid around $75 (including insurance) for a phone retailing at $30 on their website... AND if wanted to pay the $30, I would STILL have to renew my account for another 2 years... otherwise Im forced to pay $150 for a repalcement... which is what replacing the phone costs in the first place... makes no sense. smart people dont pay!

3) My biggest peeve about Verizon is anytime you want to make adjustments to your plan your forced into extending your plan for another 2 years. (1 year plans are not worth consideration, way over priced).


If your have the money sure, but with more and more providers gaining better reception and service, Verizon is becoming a has-been.

I will ending my cell contract as soon as my contract is up.

The Telecom industry is robbery!

Changing your calling plan does not extend your contract end date. They will even recommend to back date you to a higher calling plan if they see that you are going over. Most importantly your comment about smart people don't pay?!....Well smart people don't lose their phones either. And if you think telecom industry is a robbery then don't own a cellphone. There are many payphones out there.
