didnt i tell you not to get that phone?

and resigning for 2 years is the only way to get the EXTRA $100 off. you can do a 1 year, but you will pay REGULAR 1 YEAR PRICING.

solution? dont buy motorola

(anyone that complains about having to do a 2 year to get that extra $100 off, show me a different company that gives existing customers a better price on new phones than new customers.)

Cingular Premier. Unlimited upgrades too. (They just restart your contract, even if you’re like a week into it)

Haha, I never consulted you on the phone. I just got it for free April of '06.

I have no gripes with Verizon’s service to be honest. No other company touches their reception in the Southtowns area.

I’m just uber pissed I have a phone that has such poor battery life and a navigation menu that is piss ass slow and keeps getting seemingly slower to boot.

Should have brought the phone in and complained - they would have warrantied it.

You bring it back 3 times, you get a new phone of your choice.

I really would like the U740 phone. Verizon is the only carrier who has this. Ebay, these phones are going for $200+. I have a $100 credit since my contract is about up. Should I sign another 2 years or switch service?

[/quote]

I can get you the u 740 for 59.99, however that is with a new plan, meaning a new number… if your up and just want to renew. Uilize that 100 dollar credit!

I’ve had no problems with Verizon. I get 1400 minutes a month, picture & Texting, and the stupid VCast on 2 phones for $110/month total. $55 a phone isn’t bad if you ask me and I never lose reception. I’ve had Sprint, Nextel, and now Verizon and I’ve liked Verizon the most. I’ve lived in 4 areas of the country in the last 1.5 years and I’ve never had a problem in any of the 4 states.

[/quote]

your employer has to have an account with them, there’s service discounts too, and seperate customer care agents. (Ones without call time metrics) even if its for your personal line.

I added my work e-mail when i did an internship 2 years ago and started getting it.

i coulda sworn you stopped in the ea store to look around or something and i said dont get it. ah well either way, as long as its not water damaged you can prolly get a $50 replacment without touching the contract and without having insurance. just have to call handset resolution

[/quote]

Maybe I will stop by and see you about getting it replaced… I need the details.

I skipped the last half of the responses, but no contract FTW. Fuck getting $50 off on a phone, its exactly why I bought a phone that the major carriers don’t carry… fuckers, and their fucking contracts…
