Do you ever feel like being a long time customer of a big company leads you to being taken advantage [View all]
of? I dont like to mess with stuff that established and working well. My credit card company never offers to lower my rate and my credit score is 830. Ive had Verizon for many years and theyve never done anything to make me want to stay beyond having pretty good coverage. Today I was at xfinity, been working with a guy on internet cable activation. As I was leaving he asked me about my cell service and I told him. He raised his eyebrows when I told him shag I was paying. We talked a bit and Im switching. Itll save me $70 a month. Also when I didnt have home internet I used the personal hotspot from Verizon they cut the speed dramatically after a couple hours and he said Id now have that unlimited. And, being limited tech savy he did all of it for me.
Youd think companies that youve used for 30 yrs would make some effort to keep you. But they probably realize there are a lot of people like me that dont want to mess with things that are working.
