Is that what you think that AT&T and T Mobile customers are on the sidelines with their mouths shut? Maybe they are too busy buying new phones rather than sitting there bashing every other company just to make them feel better about how bad they got railroaded by big R. ITs ok its only 2 years before you can switch////

the reason people get 'defensive' about bashing is because you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. Quit crying about a network being expensive. If you look at the friggin price comparison with other companies, Verizon offers competetive pricing for quality in service with your phone and with service as a customer. I've dealt with other carriers such as att&t and sprints customer service, they are in no way, shape or form equal to the great customer service Verizon offers! Bottome Line: Verizon is the best carrier in the US in reception and customer service. Anyone else who disagrees is talking out of their ass.

I really don't recall Verizon winning any AWARDS for their customer service. You may want to think before you speak.

Some people complain about Verizon taking your money...well don't sign up for features you don't want to pay for! I could have very cheap service with VZW if I wanted, a basic minute plan would help, but then my phone sevice would be boring. I like VZ Navigator, VCAST, unlimited data/messaging...etc. I pay for it and thats ok. A great network is worth paying for. But if Verizon didn't come out with these new features then people would complain that Verizon is a "dried up network" with nothing new. VZW customer should be glad they're always coming out with new stuff :) I don't think you're going to go to Wal-Mart and say, well I got some CD's, an X-box, some games, therefor I should get some free DVD's. Its a business so if you EVER get anything free or unlimited, be happy about that. Look at T-mobile, they only have unlimited calling to MyFaves only! I won't go to a carrier without unlimited mobile to mobile!

answer to #30 actually, Tmobile has unlimited mobile to mobile, and you can have it with my faves as well...it costs extra, but they do offer it, cuz i have it...

But T-Mobile's coverage is the worst. You know it, I know it.... we all do... Might as well join Metro PCS.

I think the bottom line is it's a luxury not a neccessity as you already have standard VM. Does it seem so odd to pay a small fee for a luxury???
35. (unregistered) posted on 18 Jun 2008, 09:48 0 0
Not odd, just gets expensive for all of the "little" perks
37. (unregistered) posted on 18 Jun 2008, 10:07 0 0
I agree but people need to expect that. I'm sure one day VVM will be standard with all companies, but right now it's a luxury. Just like WAY back in the day you used to get charged for standard VM and now it's free. Competition always drives prices down, and I'm sure it won't be too long before they offer it free. Just like how people freak about how much the iPhone was at release then drops $200 months later. Supply and demand people. Got off on a rant here, but seriously, people need to step back and breath....

TO ANYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT 2 DOLLARS A MONTH GO GET A BETTER JOB. VISUAL VOICEMAIL SOUNDS PRETTY COOL TO ME. WHATS 2 DOLLARS? WE LIVE IN AMERICA. THE COUNTRY OF MAKING MONEY. SO IF YOU DONT ENOUGH FOR 2 DOLLARS A MONTH, DONT BUY THE SERVICE FOR ONE....OR GET A BETTER JOB.

ummm this is for any one who thinks that VVM (Visual Voicemail) is a bad idea..... lets say you were in class and your buddies hit you up and you obviously can't pick up, well they will know to leave you a message casue they will know you'll get it as a text...SIMPLE as that its not about being lazy its about CONSTANTLY communicating with others.... ...the list could go on, fathers or mothers in meetings getting VVM from their kids that they can actually see right away.... crap if they are anything like my parents when i was young they would of RAN out of the meeting just cause they thought i was in trouble again haha haha.... this is definitly a NEW FEATURE just like bluetooth was a couple years ago, or even the MP3 player, quit your female dog ways and pay up if you want the service, otherwise SHUT UP and stop adding your negative comments to a blog, instead of wasting your time typing go sit on your thumb

Why bitch and moan about a fricking phone carrier like verizon. They are easy to deal with and they make everything simple and the customer service rep are helpful. I am a former AT&T customer and I like ATT before Cingular now their reps are just plain rude and uninformed. Besides paying a lot for verizon's services Verizon has a good network and ATT has gotten better but is not up to Verizon's standard. Every carrier has its flaws. The prices at AT&T are neck and neck with Verizon's so whats the problem? The Video VM is pretty cool and if you want it pay 1.99 the point is that you dont have to get it now. Get it when its free as in wait until its free to get it dont bitch about it.

HOW ABOUT WE STOP TALKING ABOUT HOW MUCH TO SPEND ON VISIUAL VOICEMAIL AND THINK ABOUT SOLVING AN UNGOING ISSUE IN AMERICAN AKA HOMELESSNESS OR SOMETHING IMPORTANT.
