$200 to $300 for new smartphones? Where? That's cheap if you ask me! When I bought the Droid 2 for myself and Droid Incredible for my fiancee both back in September of last year, the total, before plans included, was roughly $560. They took an extra $300 off the total as a sales thing going on. If there was no on sale going on, I would have had to pay close to $900 for both phones. Remember, this was back in September of 2010. Total for both phones and plans was $754. We went with a family plan, cheapest ones and unlimited text and data with 2 year contract.
Now when I read some of the post here, I gotta admit you guys had it way better and cheaper than I do. I pay roughly $232 a month for both phones. More than what most of you admit to paying. I see one person mentioning paying $160 or $200 for 3 phones. You don't feel so bad now do you?
Not to forget to mention, a few months ago, Verizon suddenly started overbilling me and the bill accumulated into $450 extra. I put an end to that. All I got was an apology. I only paid for what I believe was what the actual figure should have been and no extra. Even though I chewed them out and they apologized, the memo must have not been posted to the account and within one month of that mess, they continuously kept shutting our phones off for not paying the $450 that was overbilled.
What did I do? Called my lawyer up, showed her the evidence, she said she will take care of it. A week later I get 3 months free from Verizon to keep it from going to court.
Greedy bastards.
