	<htmltext>Bing seems like an imitation of Google in most respects. It works, it's fairly accurate but it's also largely redundant. Choice is still a good thing - sometimes routes to Google are slow or I simply don't want them knowing some of my business so I might use Bing or Yahoo.
<p>
This Verizon behaviour though... Forcing someone to exactly one search provider is an incredibly shitty thing to do. They could have advertised the new search provider on the default landing page, even automated the process of switching, and of course defaulted the setting to Bing for new phones. But to wipe away people's own choice on existing phones is just evil plain and simple. It is IMO bait and switch, especially as some users may have legitimate reasons for staying with Google.
</p><p>
What strikes me about US telcos / cable is how seemingly unregulated they are. How they are continuously caught trying to foist one heinous condition on their users after another. European telecoms seems so much better regulated. Yes there are terms and conditions but nothing remotely approaching the levels of evilness in the US.</p></htmltext>

	<htmltext>If you need to push your product by paying another company to force your product to be used, I don't think that says very good things about your product. Moreover, it is going to make many people simply react negatively to being forced to use Bing. On the other hand, given the massive head start that Google has over Bing, it is understandable that Microsoft would try tactics like this. Presumably if they are still trying this sort of thing in two or three years that would indicate a much more serious problem. Honestly, having tried both Google and Bing I've found them to be close to the same quality. I prefer Google but primary for the interface.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I dumped Verizon over 5 years ago when they partnered with M$ for "myvzw".  One day I went to log into the portal (which worked fine from a mobile phone so it didn't require too many html capabilities) and it said I was on an incompatible browser and needed to upgrade.  The problem was that I was on a SPARC.  I'd been using a SPARC with Netscape for years with no trouble and then suddenly they said I needed exploder.  AT&amp;T has better phones anyway.

I recently dumped Netflix because they require Silverlight to view movies on-line.  It's just a coincidence that the CEO of Netflix sits on the M$ board of directors...

People who say Microsoft has changed its ways and is no longer anti-competitive just aren't looking in the right places.</htmltext>

	<htmltext><p>I really have to start reading Slashdot at work, because I'm already 250 comments late getting on. So I don't really expect to successfully counteract the layers of mindless speculation and chest-thumping rage already piled up here.

Here's some bullet points:</p><p>1. Yes, Verizon Wireless has switched the search bar to run Bing. <i>No, you don't have to use it.</i> The company has just gotten the equivalent of a very expensive TV commercial for Microsoft. You don't need to watch commercials either. Just ignore Bing, like you already do.</p><p>2. No, Google isn't blocked -- just go to the browser and bookmark Google.com.

This does NOT count as a material change to your Customer Agreement, because it isn't costing you anything. Don't bother trying to argue your way out of the ETF.</p><p>4a. And please don't harass the customer service reps about this, as some helpful person suggested earlier. We'll consider a whole bunch of reasons to waive your charges, but not some bullshit reason like this.</p><p>Yes, I know we all hate cell carriers. God knows they deserve it. But to see a bunch of people piling on against some piddling little change without bothering to actually ask someone who knows anything really shakes my faith in torch-carrying mobs.</p><p>(Posted anonymously for legal reasons -- my opinions don't reflect the opinions of Verizon Wireless, blah, blah, blah.)</p></htmltext>

<sentencetext>I really have to start reading Slashdot at work, because I'm already 250 comments late getting on.
So I don't really expect to successfully counteract the layers of mindless speculation and chest-thumping rage already piled up here.
As someone who actually works for Verizon Wireless customer service and has read the company details about the change, I have to speak up, cause there's barely a smidgen of fact in this entire story.
Here's some bullet points:1.
Yes, Verizon Wireless has switched the search bar to run Bing.
No, you don't have to use it.
The company has just gotten the equivalent of a very expensive TV commercial for Microsoft.
You don't need to watch commercials either.
Just ignore Bing, like you already do.2.
No, Google isn't blocked -- just go to the browser and bookmark Google.com.
As noted somewhere in here, you can even download a Google app.3.
This is only for a handful of BlackBerrys.
The Droid, being a Google phone and all, isn't affected.4.
This does NOT count as a material change to your Customer Agreement, because it isn't costing you anything.
Don't bother trying to argue your way out of the ETF.4a.
And please don't harass the customer service reps about this, as some helpful person suggested earlier.

<sentencetext>Anyone in the US can go out and buy an unlocked phone that is compatible with your carrier of choice (note that the US has at least three major competing technologies, none of them compatible with European GSM, so you have to make sure the phone you choose works with the carrier you choose).
Then you buy a SIM chip and install it (or, in the case of Verizon, activate your IMEI with Verizon).Unfortunately, the major phone companies in the US charge the same whether you get your phone from them or you bring your own, and the subsidies are significant.
So the only things you gain for your extra money are the flexibility to move from company to company and complete control over your phone (carrier can't turn off features if it's not their phone, though of course they can block access to specific data services if they want).But we have LOTS of month-to-month phone plans you can buy without a contract at all, and that are SIM-chip based.

<sentencetext>I was actually about to buy a blackberry for the holidays and switch from a pay as you go phone provider to a contact provider.

	<htmltext>F*ck you Verizon.

You know, I used to manage a 500 phone cell contract at the last company I worked for.  I actually liked Verizon then.  They had great support and offered decent phones (although it still took them a year to get the RAZR, the hot phone at the time.)  We had some great regional sales reps too.  Warranties were hassle free and we appreciated that.

I moved jobs three years ago.  It came time to consider switching cell providers and I naively assumed Verizon was the same.  Sure, they're rates were still about the same, but everything else has changed with the company.  I hate dealing with them now and they're the bane of my existence.  I had SEVERAL regional reps outright lie to me this year.

I hate them.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>What is your problem with some people self censoring themselves? It's called self control, it's called being polite, it's called being considerate of others. You're still in that phase of life where you think of only yourself and care nothing for the concerns and cares of others. So your inability to understand why some folks can self censor themselves and still be mad is a congenital defect of yours. For instance, I can self censor myself and not use curse words when there are small children present or nuns or even with cashiers, salespeople and strangers. This is probably not the case with yourself, but then for you nobody else matters but you.</htmltext>

We've seen all the major carries do something to this same effect dozens of times and even more frequent with these smart phones becoming more efficient tools.  They know it'll piss customers off, but they know you want the phone you have.  They also know a lot of people aren't willing to cut their contract and pay the fee.  There are a few out there that probably would do this, but it's not enough to make a difference.
</p><p>
All Your Base Are Belong To Us.
</p><p>
If they truly feared people leaving them for doing something like this, they wouldn't do it.  It's unfortunate that most of their pissed off customers can't leave either, no one wants to take a 300 dollar hit to make a "point".
</p><p>
Ohh, I just thought of something though.  If you could make a site... lets call it, "letsleaveverizon.com".  On that site you see a couple things.  One being a counter of how many people would agree to leaving if the amount was above 10000(just throwing out numbers).  You'd also see a link to click on that would allow you to "join".  This join would only send you an email once the counter reached the specified goal.  You'd obviously want a Captya to prevent unnecessary joins.  Lastly a paragraph explaining the simple guide lines, like.. Don't join if you are not 100\% on board with leaving once the goal is reached.  Also the leave can be canceled if Verizon meets the criteria... IE:  Adding back my option to choose, because after all that is why you bought the phone in the first place.

I am in the process of getting off of Bell Canada and none too soon.  I moved within Calgary, and the area I am in has poor coverage, so the phone drops calls continuously.  After calling Bell to complain about the coverage, even though the coverage map says my area of the city is good, they said that I couldn't quit them since I didn't get their permissions to move (huh???), and its my fault the phone works periodically.
<br>
Anywho, I asked to get a supervisor and he got me off the rest of the contract and heading over to a new provider (http://www.windmobile.ca/) in the new year, and their rates are fantastic.... just hope they don't treat the customers like crap.</htmltext>
