Explain something to me why is it Verizon rules? There high deposits? There expense plans? There "unlimited" data plans for laptops and PCs? Or is it there ability to have this great coverage area everywhere in the US? Wow all those things are very laughable and I will tell you QCHAT if they keep it under that title will blow the socks off of all the over paying, none believing, and cocky verizon customers not to mention this year sprints going past rev O while Verizon will be just getting it.
Ok 1st of VZW IS in Rev A. Maybe not in all markets but at least where I'm at they are. Sprint's CS is BEYOND subpar into definitions that should NEVER be used to clasify CS & that which is TERRIBLE. And their billing? Yeah let's not even go there. Yeah maybe a $400 deposit is a bit much but oddly enough those deposits only seem to come up with individuals who had another carrier, which most of the time coincidentally (SP), happened to be Sprint, that went into write off. Yeah there's a financially sound decision. Let's give a phone to the person who already had a phone with another carrier, eg. Sprint, & couldn't or didn't pay their bill. RIGHT..............
i jump onto this site to read what some people think of the new phones, and all i see is petty, nieve, and immature arguments about which provider is better. GET OVER IT PEOPLE...to each their own...If you want to go by facts alone, Sprint may have more coverage and fast EVDO speeds, but verizon has more customers. Sprint has 7pm nights, but ATT has rollover. Who is to say that one is better than the other??? not me. Just cause Spring is great for me, doesn't make it best for someone else.
Just for kicks though...let me address the statment by comment #25.
I find it funny that you claim to know what carrier each of the VZW applicants came from...and why they are required to have a deposit...very funny indeed. Since when did a simple credit eval EVER give out that info? Its called credit class, and people get pooled in one for many different reasons...and if VZW decided to charge $250 more than its #1 competitor, more power...just don't seem dumbfounded when they get sprint instead...K.
According to facts alone, its simple to know that on paper Sprint is the clearly better choice for the majority of customers...(and if you know anything about the wireless world you will not argue this point) but the problem with this is that "on paper" isn't the end all...and never has been...
so lets stop being so stupid, and learn that each carrier has their own pros and cons, and STOP ARGUING.
From VZW's Website "With BroadbandAccess from Verizon Wireless in your notebook, you can access email, download files, and browse the Internet at broadband speed. Our growing high-speed wireless network covers more then 240 million people in 248 major metropolitan areas and 232 primary airports in the United States" Sprint doesn't even talk about how large their data network is. Yeah this is only VZW's EVDO-0&A coverage not including voice. Do your research.. Oh and about the fact taht vzw has pre-3g speeds... from speedtest.net if you go to Chandler Arizona b/c that is the only place I know taht has both Sprint and VZW broadband and not enough landline-based ISPs to drown out the data. VZW Cellco Partnership is 874, Sprint PCS 868.... Moron. I estimate sprint to file for bankruptcy or look to sell like Alltel did within 5 years. They lost a net 300,000 customers last Quarter while every other company gained around 1 million. You are a moron. I know everyone agrees with me.
stuntz how more of a schmuck could you be. sprint is so close to going bankrupt. verizon will own sprint soon. and to me it sounds like you(stuntz) need to get your priorities straight. if verizon wanted a deposit that either means they know that you are homosexual and like sniffing pickles....or you never pay your bills and have even more homosexual credit. i know...its both huh? if you ever want any advice from a professional...let me or Chief know. that goes to all of you, we can handle all you pickle sniffers in denial. have a nice gay...i mean day.
Ok 1st of all if you don't want to "argue" or as most ppl would put it state & read the opinions of others than MAYBE you shouldn't respond to ppl's comments. ESPECIALLY ppl who have been doing this work for almost 6yrs having sold ALL 4/5, (depending how you still view Sprint/Nextel) of the major national carriers. Everbody know how the debt to income ratio credit classification works. FACT - Individual annual income of $36,000. Annual debt rate of only roughly $28,000 so we all know the debt to income ratio won't bother them or as others put it their credit isn't over extended. Has NO other write offs except for one from oh I don't know let's say Sprint say 5 yrs back. GUARANTEE that individual WILL have a deposit for 99% of other carriers. Period. Oh and as to how I would know this information, well when an individual comes to get a phone and they say but all the bills I have I pay on time etc etc and I ask have you ever had a cell phone before really w/ who and what happened? it's funny how the majority of responses is, Yes, With Sprint, and They were charging me for stuff I wasn't doing or they shut my phone of because I was short a dollar or 2 on my bill so I Just stopped paying it all together. If you honestly think that cell phones don't look at more than just a customers credit rating you are naive. They do look for outstanding balances with other cellular providers. ESPECIALLY write offs. Straight from the manual credit review departments of ALL 4/5 national carriers.
