Thanks for some level of understanding Mojary but just to re-point this out that indeed this is just about as clear a case as can be made that we are being told what devices we can have an what devices we can not.

For instance just as with me, almost of the posts I have read have started like this one, where someone who has been on Verizon for a long time an doesn’t know anything to the degree that we know, has qualified for a 2 new every year and wants to stay with them as a carrier as again they don’t understand this all and by the by, many currently even have a device much as you mention already but realize the now need something more except for data goes to try to do that just the same as those that do need data but finds that when they want to take the advantage of all they were promised and all that is being offered such as being able to stay with their carrier and get the device for what they should be able to get it for cannot unless the fork over that $750.00 for something they don’t need.

So then as a result if they don’t want to do that are to some degree just as equally penalized in any number of other ways by having to deal with all the losses such as you suggested

In either way there is always a higher cost no matter how they go about it that they shouldn’t have to encur as this is not what they had been promised or that should be getting done to them.

Simply put this, the no one it holding a gun to head is so wrong as this is like saying, I want or need to buy this device and they say, OK but to get it I have to shoot in the hand or you can go to someone else and they will shoot you in the foot but don’t sit here an blame me or bitch about getting shot in either as that was your choice.

Well my choice is that I’m arguing that I shouldn’t be able to get the device without getting shot at all as that is what I was supposed to be able to do and an besides, well I think shooting people is wrong no matter where or who does it.
