<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1267869"><b>More Fiber</b></A> : Print out both pages, then don't worry about it.  If you terminate early and they give you grief about it, file a "bait and switch" complaint with the FTC.  Advertising one fee, then hiding a higher fee in the TOS is illegal.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1008760"><b>pharos</b></A> : I would understand it if they lowered the ETF, updated the agreement and forgot to update the sign up page, but not the other way around. $149 Sounds like a mistake to me =\]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/606807"><b>rebus9</b></A> : Looking at the Business FIOS address qualification page, the ETF is cited as "up to $149 early termination fee".<br><br>However, in the Terms of Service it's cited as, "a termination fee in the amount of two hundred fifty dollars ($250)".<br><br>To me this looks like they may have lowered the ETF, but based on their TOS they can hang you for a hundred bucks more, regardless of what their qual page says (since that page is just a quote and not the "official" agreement).<br><br>Any VZ insiders here who can clarify?<div class="borderless"><TABLE WIDTH=95% align=center border=0 CELLPADDING=4"><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=2 WIDTH=66%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/22645933?c=1445198&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyMjY0NTkzMy54bWw%3D"><IMG TITLE="5410 bytes" BORDER=0 WIDTH=399 HEIGHT=300 SRC="/r0/download/1445198~734638107c77b77a520195ac69753864/etf1.gif"></A></TD><TD ALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nowrap width=1%>&nbsp;</TD></TR><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=3 WIDTH=100%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/22645933?c=1445199&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyMjY0NTkzMy54bWw%3D"><IMG TITLE="12312 bytes" BORDER=0 WIDTH=480 HEIGHT=294 SRC="/r0/download/1445199~cd28823e1990f6d29b2ab68ec78ea964/etf2.gif"></A></TD></TABLE></div>]]></description>
