Verizon CFO says grandfathered unlimited plans on the way out

i know know iphone has LTE... but AT&T is marketing the Iphone as a 4g device and its deceiving customers. There is even a 4g icon on the iphone where the signal is.... when Im not in a metro area... it goes to 3g..... its confusing customers.... I have VZW customers arguing with me saying they know the Iphone is a 4g phone because their friends have it and it says 4g.

I know know? LOL!!

I agree that it was a BS move to put that 4G indicator on the iPhone. Both Apple and AT&T are to blame for that one.

I got an AT&T I phone for one simple reason... I had a VZW Iphone and I was on my way from SC to Alabama and dropped it in a cup of juice. Basically I was stuck a weekend without a phone.... I didnt have insurance on my phone and the phone wasnt even paid for yet (it was about 2 weeks old)..... so I just went to AT&T and got a phone. People look at me crazy at work... but I couldnt be stuck on the road 5 hours away with no phone.

but what if you arent losing customers? VZW customers were just spoiled... how many other companies had aNE2 credit? Also how many charge an upgrade fee? If you want to keep your unlimited data plan (which 90% of customers dont use over 4gb a month-FACT) DONT upgrade.... or buy a phone at full retail price. You have options. The whole "you dont value customers line" is bullshit. If you knew how many BILLIONS of dollars VZW spends to update, build and maintain the nations best network maybe you would appreciate it more. We spend 3 times more than any other network on network and towers. VZW isnt only making money, we are spending ALOT of money.

It's not that we're spoiled it's that we were provided a service at a decent price and we purchased it.

To me that 4g is overrated. I don't know when I use it or not but most of the time when it says 4g I don't get that speed. Most of the unlimited stuff used on account is on my kids phones.

It doesn't matter how much a company spends to update their network since they are still making a big profit. Most companies are always doing some type of updates or upgrades to keep customers and get new ones.

You know they are doing this now since most people are coming up to their NE2 since the cut out the unlimited plans for new customers. I may be looking to another company for my phone service just because of this.
