If it isn’t worth the money don’t get it. If it is, then do. Stop bitching that everything isn’t free. Broke bastards…

it’s the name of the game – they charge you everywhere they can … they market all the bells and whistles as costing very little, but if you stop to add up all the ‘only $1.99′ services, you realize that you’ve paid a few hundred extra dollars at the end of the year for basically fluff services. meh.

And my hatred for VZW grows further. Sure, VZW is my carrier, but I truly cannot wait until my contract ends. Charging for every single feature that should really be free is just ridiculous. They may have the best overall network, but since that doesn’t apply where I go to school, it’s really not even worth it.

Ringback should be a banned feature until they allow custom Ringbacks as opposed to Kanye samples.

Wow!!! Big Red charges for everything. On other phones like the iPhone, if the number is not saved in the phonebook, it will display the state of origin.

The iPhone already does the City/State for unknown numbers, it’s kind of sort of not totally useless but I wouldn’t pay $2 for it.

The City ID is because VZ won’t allow anyone to access/update there LIDB/CNAM database (wireless or land line) so they’ll only deliver the city/state ID for calls that don’t originate on there network. And now since they are not making any money on LIDB lookups since other carriers won’t pay them 2 cents per call they are going to charge there own customers.

LOL, Dtest54 I was just going to share those exact sentiments.
Nickel and Dime for everything. Somehow they managed to make having the best network not that important anymore.
