Why are you back on the "home" internet service thing again? Find me a $21,000 service charge for home service and that will be relevant.

It didn't cost Verizon anywhere near $21,000 to provide that service. Passing on that large of a bill and not notifying the consumer his bill was on an astronomical trend was irresponsible of the carrier.

so here we have case of uncapped usage and it burns somebody. but again it's the businesses fault.

and if dude didn't clarify how much usage his plan entailed it's carriers responsiblity to remind him......... jut like avatard wants.

Didn't you call the fire department because your kid locked you out of the house?

whats at home pricing have to do w/ phone carrier service, a more comparable thing would be texting rates and people who send a billion text on pay as you text plans. and get suprised when they get their bill........D'OH

does it really matter what it cost verizon? furniture has a 300% markup.........ar at least thats what i'm told.

are you the voice of reason, if not who is? and why is it verizons respon. vs the owner of the phone to police his own phone?

that's right, you did.........but so did everyone else.

you and everyone else in your hood is supporting the FD thru taxes.......Isn't it in your vested interest to use the FD as little as possible, or do you want your taxes to go up because of increased demand on the FD?

and if they get swamped and need more manpower my taxes will go up accordingly......or some other type service will get diminshed manpower......

You're the one that keeps bringing up home service and people wanting faster speeds, wanting "business" style service at home, etc.. Nobody else. Just you.

And now you question the validity of your own analogies.

Again, counting text messages and keeping track on invisible kilobytes - not comparable. And it's not what this thread is about, this is about data charges.

The price of furniture is clearly marked. The number pieces of furniture you're purchasing is also clear. If unlimited sofas were available for $60, how many would you want for $21,000?

You should consider law school. You have a natural gift for making relevant arguments and clear, concise points.

its more like you goto a store and it says "cokes" for sale, you tell jr to get a few, and he gets a truck full, then you get pissed when you get the bill.

And how do they get swamped? By people using them (like you).....

You're like the guy who dumps his antifreeze down the sewer, saying "one guy doing it aint gonna hurt anything".........meanwhile telling his friends about it, so they think it's ok too.
