Why is Verizon greedy and not pro-rating service?

Called today to cancel my acct and was told I have to wait 3 more weeks until end of cycle. That's not a customer-oriented policy. Why not pro-rate it and end it when customer wants to end it? Pro-rating will increase customer satisfaction and boost customer loyalty. Verizon, don't you get it? People are getting fed up with GREEDY Corporations. Namaste.

It has been in the contract as long as I can remember, many reps have come on here reinforcing that wording in the contract and countless people who have ported/canceled their service have also come on these forums complaining about their final bill NOT being pro-rated OR any refund being issued. This is for people in contract AND out of contract. Of course, you could be right and it may have been different at some point. For years, this is the way it has worked, though.
Personally, I have never ported a number out of Verizon, so I have no personal knowledge.
Are you speaking from personal experience? You ported out and are now back with Verizon???

Why Final Cut X and Not Premier Pro?

I've been using FCP for many years and was shocked when FCX first came out. Thought it was just iMovie with a few more features. I know there was a big update to FCX which added a bunch of features that pros need (why Apple would didn't just wait 6 mos. and release THAT version first is beyond me, but that's another thread in itself).
I can't use FCP 6 forever, but I'm nervous to make the leap. I have to say, Premiere Pro CS6 is tantalizing and is fully supported people seem to love it.
I make :30 sec. TV/web spots mainly, with the occasional longer project thrown in. We already have CS5 so upgrading wouldn't be too bad.

first of all: I'm no pro - my personal enthusiasm about FCPX doesn't help you
maybe some 'real world' examples from professionals using FCPX:

or this example from the Ripple Team:
http://fcp.co/final-cut-pro/tutorials/905-lightning-fast-organisation-of-media-i n-final-cut-pro-x
... to illustrate the very different GUI and workflows of FCPX.
it's probably crucial when youre used to the 'old' (no offense ment!) metaphores.
I assume a perfect integration of Premiere with AE and PS ... (which would completely overstrain an hobbyist like me - way too much options ) - FCPX is in its actual version more an island (even no integration with/to Motion5)
best advice was already given twice:
test on your own - keep in mind: it is very different ....

Data usage not pro-rated?

Ok--I upgraded my account to include data usage of 4GB on July 7th. When I received my bill I was quite surprised to see 2 months worth of the data plan on there as I had already paid July's bill. Since the billing cycle for July ended on 7/10 why was my $70 billing for the month of July not pro-rated down to approximately $7(10%) as I only had it for 3 days of the billing cycle?
Subject was edited by: Verizon Moderator

When you make a plan change, you have three options:
Backdate, to include the full current billing cycle. Full charge for the month, full complement of minutes, data, texts - whatever you are changing. This is what you chose or opted for. If you increased your data allowance to cover overages already incurred, this would be the only wise choice. Full charge for 6/10 - 7/10, full use of the 4 GB data.
Effective the date of the change, in your case, 3 days before the next billing cycle. By choosing this option, you would only have 400MB of data allowed for the last 3 days of your cycle, and about 1.8 GB for the prior 27 days, so just over 2 GB for the month - probably not enough if you were making the change because you were over your 2 GB allowance.
Future date, to start with the next billing cycle, does no good if you are already over, but works if you anticipate a heavy usage month.
So, if you were already over your 2 GB, and by more than just a little, then prorating for 3 days would not be helpful. Pro-rating applies to both the charges and the allowance. You pay 10% of the fee, you get 10% of the data.

Data charge not-pro-rated when upgrading

Thank you Verizon for finding another way to screw loyal customers.
I recently upgraded to a smart phone in mid-month. When my bill arrived I was charged the full month's data charge for the month in which I upgraded. It's $30. Pro-rated it would have been more like $10. Frankly, you could have given me that one as a thank you for years of being a loyal customer. I could have switched to Boost or Cricket for a lot less. Instead you charge me for the whole month. Sure, we're talking $10, $20... won't break me, but add it up and it's millions of overcharges for Verizon.
Any lawyers out there who would like to launch another class action suit against greedy telecoms? ********. I suppose I could call and waste $20 worth of your customer service time, but I have better things to do.

I am recently pretty unhappy with Verizon, they disbanded their customer loyalty group and when I got a new plan I lost 4 mos of a credit I was to receive for "being a loyal customer" and not cancelling service, instead I upgraded and continued another 2 years...but got my son a new phone requiring a new plan and I am sorry you just lost that credit and we won't give it to you. Nice customer service, what happened to fixing things for your customers, and loyalty yes says alot that they disbanded that group. Also they are having issues with data looking high and I see NOTHING about it posted anywhere, but took several hours and days to talk to several people to find it's a known issue.

Why is iCal in . and not in English? And why does it cast its malign spell over Mail?

Why is iCal in German and not in English? And why does it cast its malign spell over Mail?

Go to the Settings app and check under General, International and see what language is set. Even if it correctly set, reset it.
If that doesn't work, try a rest of the iPad: hold down the On and Home buttons simultaneously until it shuts down. Ignore the Off slider if it appears. This will take 10 - 15 seconds or so. After it shuts down completely, press the On button to restart.

Why use ATI 4270 and not on die 6530D?

HP Touchsmart 520Z, AMD A6-3600, 6GB memory, 1.0TB HDD
Hi everyone,
Why do the 520Z models use the inferior ATI HD 4270 and not the much more powerful 6530D that is on the A6-3600 die? Are they working in synergy, like crossfire?
Every single benchmark I've come across reveals that the 6530D is vastly superior to the 4270, what gives?

SalemSwift, welcome to the forum.
I am not a HP employee, so this is strictly my opinion. There are many different price points in the TouchSmart line. So that they can offer these different prices, they have to pick their components carefully. They want the computers to give the best performance possible with the combined components. High-end video cards require more power to function properly. The price must increase accordingly.

Help - cannot stay connected: BT dun with Verizon Centro and Macbook Pro Leopard (Broadband access customer too)

Previously a Treo 770p user who enjoyed laptop freedom using Verizon's Broadband connect - never a problem. Now ready to throw the Centro out the window, as no amount of restarting, taking battery out, scripting changes etc. etc. etc. etc. works - everything I have tried disconnects me within seconds. Verizon of course does not support the Centro BT DUN with the Mac. But everything worked fine wiuth the Treo - why not the Centro? I am about ready to cancel my broadband access, or go back to the Treo - ugh. Not even the USB cable works with the Centro/MACbook Pro - then again it did not work with the Treo either, but the BTDUN did!
Ideas? Fixes?
Thanks.
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

and now, when i tried to check again my network preference below the airport tab is showing a message that
"my airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the internet!"
then after seconds it will goes back to the first message that
"airport has the self assigned IP address etc....."
i don't know whats going on now!
airport tab is not showing green color anyway! i'ts always in yellow!
i tried turning it on and off but nothing happen! HEEELLLLPP!!!!

Why do Encore CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 have intermittant Sync issues?

I am noticing that Encore CS5 is "buggy" regarding sync issues with material edited by Womble and Corel Video Studio and I am guessing other programs as well?
In high definition I take AVCHD and edit in Corel Video Studio. If I leave the project as one single 42 minute segment and import this asset into Encore CS5, more often than not there are bad sync issues. To get around this I have to divide the 42 minute project into approximately 6 smaller ones- Each smaller asset ends where I had done the editing. Encore does not have any problems now with these 6 smaller assets.
In standard definition I edit in Womble and export as a MPEG2 Program. Sometimes Encore has a problem with the asset sync and sometimes it does not. (I am guessing about 20% of my assets end up with a problem). The same asset if brought into TMP or brought back into Womble does not have any sync issue. If brought into Premiere Pro CS5 it will exhibit the same behavior as Encore- If Encore has a sync problem, so will Premiere Pro. So to get around this I then have to go back to the original womble file and break it up into smaller pieces, at every edit point I cut and export the smaller file just after the end of the transition I applied. With a 6 hour project I may end up with dozens of small files to get around this problem- not very efficient.
Any ideas how to fix this or why Encore is so buggy? Would moving the original assets around in Womble- example taking something that was at the end of the timeline and then moving it to the beginning cause these issues for Encore? Or is there some other cause?
Encore CS5
Premiere Pro CS5
Windows 7 64 BIT
Quad core
2.4 GHZ clock speed
6GB memory
150 GB free space on drive
NVIDIA GEFORCE 8500 card

I've used VideoReDo in the past, which I believe has some similar strategies to Womble. I found when I tested streams, that there were often problems in the source streams, and that the fix was not 100 percent.
You may also find such files that are not 100 percent the same length video to audio.
In any event, the possibility other than Encore being buggy is that the files you are bringing in have problems when Encore tries to validate them. I'm not saying Encore doesn't have its problems, but clean mpeg files do not have sync issues ordinarily.
For some scenarios, I like your workflow (edit mpeg files in a frame accurate mpeg editor that is not retranscoding the whole file), but the results are often not consistent.
You don't say, and I would certainly look at, the nature of the audio stream you are using. I can not tell you what the problems are, but some streams just do not edit well, even though they may play back okay in some players, but still have issues in Encore and/or Premiere.

Why is it ln and not nl?

Heh, it isn't a problem, but I'm curious.
println() adds a new line att the end, but ln stands for line (I belive).
why not nl for newline, since it does add a new line?
printline and print is the same (namewise..).
Or does ln stand for something else?

no no no.... cuz if they had to call "printnl" for newline, then you'd need 3 versions:
printnl - print + \n
printcrnl - print + \r\n
printcr - print + \r
to work on the systems that use each different one, then you'd need to have tests to see if the os.name is Windows or Mac or some Unix or whatever and figure out which to call yourself. But you you wouldn't do that, so you'd end up using plain "print" with "print(System.getProperty("line.separator"))" after every line creating more code, and those 3 methods would fall in to disuse. So Sun, in their infinite wisdom, said "let's make a "print-line" function, "println" for short which addes the proper line separator automatically"....

Why HTC Desire S and not HTC Wildfire S?

I just love Firefox and have used it almost scince it was born into this world.
It's just the fastest, eaysest and most reliable way to surf the webb, always has been and always will be.
So, now i wanted it for my Android phone as well but i was very dissapointed when i saw that it's still not available for my HTC Wildfire S but it's avaliable for HTC Desire S, why?
Best Wishes from a true Firefox user.'
Ps: Keep up the awesome work, the "www" is free for all and should stay so!

Firefox is built with an optimized instruction set (called "Thumb-2") to make it small and fast enough to run on mobile devices. Unfortunately, this optimization is not supported by the processors in many low-end or older Android phones.
We're working on other ways to make Firefox smaller or faster, so someday it might be possible to build a version that works without Thumb-2 and is compatible with these older devices. But for now, Firefox is just not ready to run on those devices.
