GRR! Pointless Verizon!

What's the point of setting up phone service with your online system if you're just going to cancel it on the day it's supposed to happen, and then force me to call you and run through the whole order process on the phone??

Now I won't have a land line until next Wednesday. Lame!

But of course. Big corporation likes to bend me over for not giving them money. It's the American way!

No. I've seen a pattern with Verizon and Verizon Wireless. When you buy your services and products directly from them and their stores there is much less of a problem. When you start getting into special deals on say Kyocera phones from a friend of a friend or buying something off E-bay and then trying to maintain it or doing a second or third party deal where they are not directly involved Verizon seems to get very confused as to what to do. On the balance, Verizon is one of the better telecommunications companies out there but they definately have process issues when it comes to reseller stuff.

They have one more chance - if I still don't have a phone line after next week, I'm just getting a cable phone.
