I hope you get your Verizon problems resolved. You might try posting on Facebook and include a hashtag #verizon on #verizonfail. I've found comments like that get attention.

Me and my dad are ready to shut our home phones off and just use our cell phones,hell we would be saving almost $80.00 a month each...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06542426607435010981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11666785.post-20557014291168749722011-03-28T22:47:15.433-04:002011-03-28T22:47:15.433-04:00Johnny Dollar,

...Johnny Dollar,<br /><br />I am in a very similar situation.<br /><br />I have local phone service for $20/month and 1 Mbps DSL for an additional $20/month, but then they give me two credits of $10 each for "Freedom Essentials" making my total about $30 after taxes.<br /><br />I want to upgrade to 3 Mbps DSL, but I'm afraid to lose my credit and I don't want to ask a rep about it. I've been getting this credit for a while now and according to the bill, I'll keep getting it well into 2013.dhalsim2https://www.blogger.com/profile/01129671209394215299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11666785.post-58802799613498778332009-08-22T09:44:32.324-04:002009-08-22T09:44:32.324-04:00I found this blog searching "Freedom Essentia...I found this blog searching "Freedom Essentials"... I switched to digital phone service through my cable company several months ago... but I still have a fax line through Verizon... It's a very strange deal. Ever since I made the switch I still get a monthly bill from Verizon for my fax number... I get the "Freedom Essentials Credit ($15) and a "Freedom Value Credit" ($20)... I have no idea why I get these credits... but since my monthly bill including taxes only adds up to $30.98 and they give me the credit of $35 each month I have a negative balance of just over $4... every month. My credit balance is now up to $70.56... (A better return than my IRA)... and according to the bill I will be getting the "Freedom Essentials Credit" and "Freedom Value Credit" until Sept. 13, 2011.Johnny Dollarhttp://www.megatudes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11666785.post-16425850850999232602009-03-18T06:50:00.000-04:002009-03-18T06:50:00.000-04:00Chance, you make a good point.

He had his 5 minutes of training and he's doing a job, (hopefully) paying his taxes and supporting his family.<BR/><BR/>In this case, Verizon marketing needs to take another look at their business model. And Mr. Allen needs to find a job with a future...Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16477949304113673930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11666785.post-36341680074314988562009-03-17T23:14:00.000-04:002009-03-17T23:14:00.000-04:00I am ashamed to say I worked as a telemarketer for...I am ashamed to say I worked as a telemarketer for a couple weeks in college. Now, I worked for a company that was specifically a telemarketing company, selling products such as cable and credit cards for other companies. So, I barely knew what I was selling; they told us about 5 minutes before, and I just went off the script. My point being, I'm not surprised the guy had no idea what was going on.Chancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715105658994917163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11666785.post-16439306434282444752009-03-16T16:53:00.000-04:002009-03-16T16:53:00.000-04:00Wow.
