I can honestly see both viewpoints here. On one hand, from a consumer
protection point of view, it makes sense that you shouldn't have to pay
for service that isn't functional for your needs.
However, in a more general viewpoint, if the company moved/changed a
tower then it would be reasonable to hold them responsible for their
change, when the customer moves/changes their location it's reasonable
to hold them responsible for their change.
I honestly can't imagine anyone saying "I'd like to move, but I can't
afford the ETF, so I won't move and I'll just keep paying my existing
phone bill"
I'd tend to side with the consumer protection side of things for the
most part here, although it does leave open a hole for abuse unless the
consumer is required to repay/return any subsidized phone.

FYI, I'm in MA, not CA, and I received no such letter. After
complaining off and on to VZW customer support about it for almost a
year, I figured that a) I had waited long enough and b) I had enough
back-history for pressing the matter if necessary.
They simply said that they had to send someone around to verify my
claim. Next day, they said "OK" to waiving the early termination fee.
I never actually saw a VZW tech come out to check.

Yes and no -- Class action lawsuits are one solution to corporate
harassment. It doesn't stop harassment, but it sure provides a decent
incentive to behave.

However, J(unior) l(oser) has a long way to go before he becomes a true

because of the Big Bad Cellphone Companies and their insistence that
people pay for their services. Probably still lives in Mommy's

True. But we all know that big corporations will always find new and unique

You posted a whining diatribe, showing nothing more than your
shortcomings in understanding basic consumer law. Your complaint is no
different than hundreds if others that preceded you, and like the others
is nothing more than the rantings of a poorrly equipped consumer. You
present continuing proof that America has raised a generation that is
incapable of surviving without constantly looking for technicalities to
justify bailing on one's obligations. You are the perfect poster child
for the return of "Natural Selection" to the human race.

Hello to The Boob.
Yes, Boob, I am a poster child for survival of the fittest. While
most people will bleat like sheep when they get gouged by a crooked
company, I won't. I'll put up a fight and survive.
I'll be sure to let scurrilous whiners like yourself know what happens
after court. The first phase is before the magistrate. And if that
is unsatisfactory to either of us, it will likely go before a jury.
Ask yourself this question, Boob. Why is Charter Communications in
bankruptcy?
I'll suggest to you that it's because they failed to deliver honest
services, and people left them in droves. That and topheavy
oversalaried management.

Yet, you're still their customer. Why? Do you feel some compulsion
to do business with companies that you dislike?

No- you will whine and complain ad nauseum like a teenage girl, monpolizing
a company's resources with your ceaseless need to be right. Of course,
you're too stupid to realize that your actions actually increase the cost
of service for everyone, but you wouldn't care if you process that- it's
all about you. You are that 5% of the customer base that companies hate-
the 5% that creates 40% of their back-end costs. But that's okay- once you
get your high school diploma and need to move out of Mommy's basement,
these things will become clear to you.

Not bad- you got one of them right. Charter went under due to poor
execution of an undercapitalized and overly optimistic business plan and
poor management.
You really ought to research and think before you speak.

LOL! Did you have a Eureka! moment, there, dufus?
You're just not very bright, are you? LOL! You must be the
poltergeist of Nathan B. Forrest. I'm using somebody else's service.
I left Charter long ago. And she's having hell with them right now.
I warned her. She bought the bundle and it wasn't two months before
they started gouging her.

Ah, I get it now. You have no problem *using* their service, just
*paying* for it is what pisses you off. That speaks volumes to your

Well, I see you keep hammering your message home, not paying much or
any attention to the trolls and toadies. Good for you. Truth will
win out in the end.

You might want to learn how to run a newsreader- the comments you just
attributed to me are not mine, newbie.

Apparently.
FWIW, Charter's cable service has been rock-solid for me here in the
Victor Valley, since we moved here in 2003. I do, however, understand that
cable companies' levels of service tend to vary from market to market.

This dipshit (who claims to be Larry Smith; kind of eerie, huh?) and I
apparently live within the same Charter service area. I've heard no
complaints about their HSI service here, either, and I have a LOT of
customers and friends who use Charter. Sure, some people complain
about their customer service, but it's been my experience that most of
those complaints are from people who got disconnected for being late
(and I'm talking 60+ days overdue) on their bills, and they're just
pissy that they weren't allowed to rack up three months of charges
before being cut off.
And lest anyone forgets who this dolt is, he's the same one who posted
the following little gems:
1. On 11/23/2007, he claims his VZW phone has a SIM card.
4. On 11/24/2007, he posts what he claims to be his account login
info, and invites others to log into his account.
"Log onto my account if you don't believe what I'm telling you about
Verizon's problem either concealing information, or incompetence.
Log-on name is *******. Password is ********." (My edit, not his)
(Message ID: 0198c599-6e53-466f-8288-e369fe38adc9...oglegroups.com)
I could go on, but I think you get the picture. Now with idiots named
Larry posting here from both Asheville, NC and Charleston, SC, it puts
me in mind of that line from a Stealers Wheel tune, "Clowns to the
left of me, jokers to the right."
And now the two Larrys are brown-nosing each other. What's that old
saying about birds of a feather?

Yawn. You must be the alpha of the seamonkeys who hang out here. No
wives, no friends, no one to associate with.
