Verizon FiOS


Recommended Posts

I wish my family would get it. I'm not worried about download speed, I need upload speed. Its absolutely abysmal with Comcast. I had to quit Mozy because of it. Sumbitches.:mad:
This is what we currently have, before the shakeup:
5/2 $42.99 currently have (slowest)

15/2 $74.95 w/ 2 yr bundled commitment

15/15 $84.95 w/ 2 yr bundled commitment

30/15 $155.00 no bundled commitment deal

...I have a feeling it will become something like:
10/2 $42.99+ currently have (slowest)

20/5 $74.95+ w/ 2 yr bundled commitment

20/20 $84.95+ w/ 2 yr bundled commitment

50/20 $155.00+ no bundled commitment deal

I'm tempted to take it up to 20/20, but there's no way I'm paying for 50/20. Heck, even if I don't do anything, I should get throttled down to half as bad as previously. That's still pretty good.

Yay!

Looking forward to my 15/2 package being bumped up to 20/5 sometime next week.

Sigh. Still waiting, I know some Verizon managers who told me about this four years ago and an announcement seven months ago that it was coming to the LA area, yeah right. Re: KG's comment "What does coming soon mean?"

Man that's expensive. NY already gets 10/2 for the slowest package, 15/2 is $52.99. 50/20 is $84.99 or something.

The 50/20 plan will be $89.95 in VA/NY and $130-$140 everywhere else.

I moved out at 16.

I guess I could move out now, but that would mean no savings. I figure:

I knwo my g/f (fiance in about 4 months) and I will be living together when she finishes her masters next may. I don't know where she is working yet. So I might as well wait so we can pick a place together. That leaves me with a year to kill to either a) get my own place, or B) save half my pay. Saving seems to make sense to me.

I'm in the same boat. My girlfriend's finishing up her Master's next year and depending on where she works is where we'll live. I still live at home, but I pay my parents a decent amount for rent.
