verizon is a very depressing company.
Wife and I went into a Verizon store yesterday, checking their prices on phones and plans as our contract with Sprint is up the end of this month and we want to switch to a lower price point.
Verizon’s stuff looked very tech-cool, but their phones and their plans are all WAY too high. We also went to the Cingular/AT&T store and outside of the rollover thing, there was ZERO difference between them and Verizon in pricing. Of course, AT&T does sell the awesomely cool Iphone, which costs more than we can afford to spend.
Then we went to Alltel and saw very cool phones, awesome features (they have the live TV, verizon doesn’t have it in our area and Cingular wants 15 more dollars a month than Alltel does for the same TV) and they have the lower price point we were looking for. This coming Friday we will be hooking up with Alltel.
