Re: Raise your hand... Companies goals are profits, not revenue. Companies would rather make 10,000,000 on 11,000,000 in Revenue than 5,000,000 on 20,000,000 in revenue. If Verizon had provided a benefit for me to sign up all four family members, I would have gone for it. This costs the same gives us unlimited voice and shared data. Not enough for me to bite. So no new revenue or profits for Verizon. |

Going by the outrage if just a small % of those pissed off by this leave I suspect both revenue and profits for Verizon will fall and they would deserve that. |

That's not the point. it's the point that the company is trying to fuck you over. |

kudos:2 | No, the point is that people are arguing that VZ is changing the fee structure and that they're fed up with VZ's antics and will be walking once their contracts expire. I'm calling their bluff. |

These new plans would cost me $80 extra over what I'm currently paying. I'm currently on unlimited with 2 smartphones and 3 dumb-phones.

There is really nowhere to go, which is the point. When two companies control most of the market, they can turn the screws, secure in knowledge that at worst it'll piss of people. But it won't cost them business because AT&T will do something equally egregious. |

It will take until contract renewal time for the exodus to occur. In other words, it will happen slowly. Everyone isn't magically up for contract renewal June 28th when this goes into effect.
I'm certainly exploring other options now, but my contract isn't up for another year. |
