Verizon Wireless To Start Charging $2 Convenience Fee Starting January 15

[Lane W]

them people, they get plenty of money, and they don't spend it on things they say they do, in VA we are supposed to have 4G, there is no true 4G LTE here, anyone who has 4G can turn it on and see what happens, run a test or what have you. And they change the data plans and charge more for the same 3G that everyone else has.

Maybe you should talk to Vzw about this recent news & they allocate their funds more appropriately within the VA state lines

In preparation for Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis, Verizon spent upwards of $69 million to take its 4G LTE network to the next level. Knowing that some 85,000+ fanatics would be in attendance along with countless media members all starving for a stable data connection, Big Red wanted to make sure your experience at the game and in downtown Indy was optimal.

Nine (9) new antennas have been added to the outside of the stadium along with a massive internal 3G/4G network and a full WiFi infrastructure that allows for 28,000 connections. They also plan to have 3 C.O.W.s (cell on wheels) on hand to help beef things up even more.

This is one of those things that I will just accept, but mainly because I have otherwise had a great experience with Verizon. Also because until my current contract maintains the $20 unlimited data plan. I'll have some things to consider when my plan is up, however.


Edit: And it appears I will have one less thing to consider as they had already dropped this plan before I posted.

There is nothing to accept currently. They aren't charging this fee anymore
