Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

I'm pretty sure you're at least allowed to break your contract now, without having to pay a penalty, since you are impacted negatively financially with them not providing the service that you originally contracted to (gps included in your monthy fees vs having to pay extra).

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

ROMs don't make a difference... I still love how people think that.

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

All i can say is VZW is a blood thirsty sucking leeches!!
Glad I moved to Sprint with SERO ($30/month) loving it since then and never want to switch back to VZW.

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

ugh
ffs does every vzw help topic have to become oh you wouldn't have to deal with this if you were with sprint?
The OP asked for help. If the only thing you're gonna say is well if you were with sprint, don't say it. If you don't have nothing to contribute to helping the OP, don't respond.
Gah this is ridiculous every single time??? I mean come on! This isn't an elementary school for sprint v. verizon. Users come needing help, not asking to switch, not asking what this company does over the other.
Leave the politics out for goodness sakes [/rant]

back on topic
did any of the suggestions I gave you work? If not I would call vzw wireless to see if there isn't an issue with your line

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

Alltel phones should work on verizon and I would suggest updating your contract with Alltel cause you can keep Alltel up to 2012 I think(thats what I'm doing) So your Alltel phone will work anyways. Verizon has no good data plan is why I'm staying for the price of my account now I would get same features but instead of unlimited data I would only get 5gb. So I would suggest to update your contract if you like them you'll still get same service as if you had verizon just must better plan!

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

I don't think plan is the issue its the phone not receiving vzw towers
I will ask did you change the prl to a vzw prl then try a *228 provision?

Re: Getting Raped by Verizon.

How would i go about activating an alltel diamond on my verizon account?
I called a while ago wondering if it was possible and the person said no, yet i know theres a way to do it. Could someone link me to a post? i searched and couldnt find anything on the alltel diamond to verizon

Finally if you did all that, is it your line? My phone cannot get past 1x because evdo won't authenticate on the device (actually on ALL of my phones). It could be quite a few things but try and convert that alltel phone to verizon by adding the prl, eri, and stuff...it could help
I'm not converting it... They converted for me.

I had this alltel phone on the alltel network. Because of the merger and I'm in the Norfolk, VA Market, our markets have merged, and I'm now officially Verizon.

Yes.. I've tried everything. They want me to go to their phone because it's more money for them. (They get to change my plan too if i go to their phone)
