|  Just ordered Fiber BUT Verizon speed changes Monday!?
I just ordered Fiber Ultra package online. Then I login into DSL reports to hear of Verizon Speed upgrades coming on Monday! I am wondering if I will getting new packages speed Verizon will be releasing or old 20/20 one?
Also is there any way for me to change/cancel my order that I just placed? Depending on what speed are in package I might want to switch another one (maybe go down one tier).
Thanks | |

| If you're still in Columbia Missouri as your avatar indicates, you won't be getting FIOS. FIOS is not available in MO.
If you are indeed in an area where FIOS is available, these are VZ's new speed tiers effective 6/21.
10/2 -> 15/5 (all service areas)
20/5 -> 25/15 (all service areas)
20/20 -> upgraded to 35/20 in NYC only
50/20 -> No change
The upgrade is not automatic. Since DSL Extreme handles your billing and support, they will need to handle requesting the upgrade for you. | |

| Re: Just ordered Fiber BUT Verizon speed changes Monday!? When I mean just order the it, I meant its not even turned on yet! Not sure when they are going to turn it on. Does that mean they will turn it on as 20/20 and then I need to request the upgrade?
And the 20/20 packages doesn't seem to be getting a upgrade except in NYC?> Kind of weird since the 25/15 seems to beat it now download wise.
Anyhow I am in Murphy, TX not in Columbia, MO. | |

If you've ordered 20/20, then your question is academic, as there is no upgrade for 20/20 (except in NYC). | |

| Re: Just ordered Fiber BUT Verizon speed changes Monday!? We have reached out to Verizon and are waiting to hear back from them. Unfortunately the Telcos aren't the fastest moving so I can't give you a specific time frame of when we will have more information. As of this point there isn't any indication of immediate changes.
I will keep you posted as I have additional updates. | |

Either way I'm ditching cable this year to either Verizon or DSLX | |

| Well, I got my DSL extreme 20/20 connected on Friday. The verizon tech showed up and connected that. However, the highest speed I am getting is 20/10ish. I haven't gotten a bit over 10 mbps upload nowhere near the 20 Mbps. Wonder if somehow verizon's speed changes messed up DSL extreme's speeds?

| Re: Just ordered Fiber BUT Verizon speed changes Monday!? said by nickdigger :So, any update on the new speeds? I have not heard any updates from Verizon on new speed tiers. I don't anticipate any changes to the tiers we are offering at this time. Should that change I will let you know.
Thanks
