Who is going to pay the proposed $2.00 fee? Not Me!!!

This is the same type of tactic used by Bank of America!!!...Additional fees for taking your money = taking my money to a new cell phone provider!!!

New to this forum. But I hope I can add my 2 cents worth. I'm not sure if Verizon is or isn't going to impose additional fees now or in the future. But several thoughts come to mind. First, it seems to me that imposing fees during a contract period would be a violation of the contract I signed threby rendering the contract null and void if I chose to find another provider. Second, this has got to rank as one of the most bone-headed decisions in recent memory. First Bank of America got their lunch handed to them by the folks they THOUGHT they were going to gouge. Then Netflix announced they were going to raise their rates and promptly lost 30% of their client base and an equal amount in their net worth. And now Verizon announces they want to go down this same road... Finally, Verizon called this fee a "Convenience Fee." If these managers really think it is more convenient for their staff to spend time going to the local bank and depositing checks, dealing with overdrafts, waiting for the actual transfer of funds to take place, etc. then they have got to be some of the most regressive and poorly educated managers in the business. For a variety of reasons our world is rapidly moving away from the use of currency and paper checks. As a "Tech" industry Verizon should be in the forefront of this movement. This lapse of judgement on their part has persuaded me NOT to have Verizon stock in my portfolio.

  • Who is going to take ownership of "download this video" not working? Mozilla, Flash or Real???

    Upgraded Mozilla Firefox to 3.6.4. Updated Adobe Flash to 10,1,53,64. Updated Real Player to 1.1.4. I am able to view videos but unable to see "Download this video" button on Youtube.
    The download this video button will appear in IE but no longer in Mozilla Firefox.
    There are lots of complaints/questions about this issue. Who is going to take control of this issue to resolve it? Is it Firefox's or Flashplayer's or Real's problem??? Some issues in this forum state that they have been resolved, but they have not.

    Hmm. Mime type is correct, but if you used the new ffmpegx to
    re-encode
    Clown.flv, did you remember to upload the new file?
    I ask because Clown.flv does not have the metadata that Flash
    requires.
    I ran it through the Windows only flvmdi program from
    http://www.buraks.com/flvmdi/
    and it works now.
    I don't know Mac, but if you can run Windows programs on it
    via Wine or
    some other means, you may want to look into it. Or look for a
    different
    Flash Video encoder program altogether.
    Meanwhile, just to get you up and running for this file, I've
    placed
    Clown.flv here:
    http://mboyd.com/test/Clown.flv
    You should be able to
    download it from there and upload to your site.
    Here it is with your HTML file in action:

  • I have a really beaten up iphone 5. Would I still be able to take it to Apple to pay the out of warranty fee to have it replaced?

    Was just curious to know if apple would still except my phone even though the too section of the whole has literally come off? Of course 100% expect to pay the out of warranty replacement fee, just don't know if it's worth my while going there to be told I can't! Any advice would be great, ta. Kelly

    Well hence why I'm asking the question because the phones so broken I was wondering if their was a point of damage they'd then not allow the replacement! CHEERS!

  • So, who's going to be the first...

    ...to find out what happens when you delete one of the built-in apps from the Home screen?

    Just incase you couldn't translate the other numerous posts - there's no 'X' button to delete icons, only on the ones you create.

    Delete your network and let Windows auto-configure a new one. And seriously consider actually getting rid of Norton... Even when you shut down all the "visible" features, security programs still are active in the background and influence specific operations...

  • Who is going to fix the AU validation in 10.4.9

    A trusting friend of mine ran the software update thinking it would be OK.
    It's not.
    Case in point the Korg Legacy collection.
    The 10.4.9 audio units validation is the new sheriff in town?
    Developers must update to comply?
    The odd think is it seems OK in intel based Macs like my macbook.
    The Korg collection validates fine in 10.4.9 on intel but will not work at all on PPC.
    stinky.

    Not only Korg, but Native instruments, Rob Papen, Spectrasonics, and the majority of the 3rd party plug ins.
    I have downloaded the combo updater.
    Back to my original question. My guess is the new AU validation is the law and all the 3rd parties have to update their plug ins to comply?

  • HT5661 What have you done to email this is the worst thing you have changed . If I touch to see what I have sent the message on my screen goes directly to the sent. This is not what I wanted it it do. As always some one has screwed up a good thing

    Some one thought they had a better idea. That some one should leave well  enough alone . I am talking about the new down load os7 today. They f up the mail. Don't fix what isn't broken .

    Do you see a n "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop in case Firefox got reset?
    Do you have more than one profile folders present if you check that?
    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    Go one level up to the Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ folder in case a new profile got created.

  • One part is going okay but the rest is slow or not responding

    I have two users set up on my Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 mine and my partners - the latter which I am using now and works fine it is in my section that the problems exist.
    Just this afternoon after trying to set up a fax sending option I found that I had a hang - on restarting I could open mail and then it moved into slo mo not even showing existing emails.At this stage any thing I did was really slow even adjusting volume.I was unable to open any web browser Safari or Firefox successfully. I have had to switch to her half just to have a look around on line.
    I have run disk repair - all the permissions seemed to be fine.
    I have a back up and am wondering if I will have to go to that stage. What other start up repairs can I effect.My start up install dic is 10.4.2

    First off, since Safe boot works, See if there is anything relevant in...
    /private/var/run/StartupItems
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/StartupItems
    Also look in in Your Accounts Pref Pane Login Items window.
    If disabling/moving/rashing those doesn't work, we could get radical...
    We could drag both these folders to the Desktop for safe keeping.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
    Then Trash the original of the second one since it only Copied it to the Desktop, then Reboot... most Prefs will need redoing, but we can move files back one at a time & reboot to see which one it is.
    I got a bit lost trying to find some of the things you mentioned like /private/var/run/startupitems
    so you said We could drag both these folders to the Desktop for safe keeping.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
    What I established was that when my preferences folder was removed things worked again and the systemconfiguration did not make too much difference.
    Could I not just drop in my prefs from a recent back up copy? Since there are so many prefs?

    It is not possible to unlock a US iPhone.  NO carriers in the US allow unlocking.  Sell the phone and purchase one in your country.

  • Address autocomplete feature proposes old invalid addresses not even in Address Book

    When I start writing a recipient's name in an email I'm composing, Firefox accesses an unknown database to propose several addresses I have used previously. These often include old addresses for my recipient that are no longer valid. In fact, more often than not these invalid addresses appear first, so if I just press Enter without thinking, that's where the message will be sent. Additionally, the proposed addresses often do not include addresses for the recipient that are in my Firefox Address Book. So it's a dual problem: I get bad addresses from some mysterious database, plus I don't get valid addresses from the Address Book. I need to know where this database that Firefox is accessing is located on my computer and how to edit it to remove all those invalid addresses I keep using inadvertently, and also how to get the autocomplete function to search the Address Book, which it is not doing. I should mention that in Tools - Options - Composition - Addressing, I have "Local Address Books" check-marked, and "Directory Server" is not checked. This is the only tool I've found in Firefox that seems to be related to this problem.

    Thank you for replying, Zenos, but I assure you I removed these obsolete addresses from the Address Book (including subdirectories I'd made in it). Hoping I was wrong, I anxiously tried your solution, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm not given an "Edit contact" option when I right-click on the address in a message I've put in the Drafts folder. The only options I'm given are "Add to Address Book..." (which is the opposite of what I want to do!), "Compose Mail To", "Copy Email Address", and "Create Filter from Message...". If I could actually do what you propose - access the actual record Firefox is using in the database and alter it - that would be perfect. I still believe it is accessing some other database, not Address Book. But thanks for trying to help!

  • My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

    I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

    You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

  • Have family plan with 250 data which I almost use each month.  Going on vacation and will be on the road for two weeks.  Should I up my data for a month then change back.  Is it worth it or should I just run over and pay the extra 15 per gig?

    Hello mlazaretti. Vacation time is awesome. (Especially a road trip!) Since you will be going out for two weeks, you never know if having extra data may come in handy. I highly recommend switching to the next tier up so this way you have more data. This way it is only $10.00 more versus $15.00, and you dont have to worry about overages. Then change back at the start of the next billing cycle.
    If you need help making this change let us know! Have a safe trip!

  • I just paid with my visa to increase the size of how much I can store in my iCloud from my iPhone but I'm noticing im going to have to pay the 27.99 price to get what I really want so I would like to know if you can stop that payment or put on 27.99

    I'm sorry I thought I was already doing that lol. Ok so I paid for more storage for my iCloud which was $3.99 but I'm releaizing that im going to have pay the $27.99 payment to get what I want I guess. So I would like to know if that payment can be stopped or forward to the other $27.99 payment I'll be making. I'm also not sure, but think I am lol, that if I were to pay the $27.99 if that applies to my iPhone and my iPad ? Or would that have to be two payments? Which I'm pretty sure its not but rather be safe than sorry. Thanks for your help. All i want to do is to able to store my music in iCloud so I can upgrade my phone to the new iOS 8.1.1 which I'm pretty sure I have room for but I'd rather just pay the $.399 than the $27.99 cuz. I don't need to listen to the radio lol
