Big Red to charge $2 for your "convenience" - Motorola Droid RAZR

This is a little ironic to me, seeing as in the last month, 3 days with no data service has been pretty INCONVENIENT!
http://m.androidcentral.com/verizon...bill?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews
So now we have to pay extra to pay our bill using the easiest methods, on top of paying some of the highest bills of all carriers... How awesome is THAT?!
\\Carved into this thread by my RAZR//

who really cares? there's no reason to not have auto-pay enabled, and they're not charging for that

There's still a $2 service charge for auto-pay using credit cards.

Oh well. My mistake. I thought there wouldn't be any $2 service charge on auto pays for bank accounts only.

Yup, you are correct. All forms of autopay are free of any service charge.

The good news is that this whole discussion is now moot. Verizon has "reconsidered" their decision to charge this convenience fee according to NBC.

Thank god. I'm barley scraping up the money to cover the rest of their nonsense fees.

Same in sweden, 25 sek for a paper invoice (3.6 usd)
Autogiro (I guess auto pay) is free.
electronic invoice is free too. But not having the service in the bank though.

Getting a gs2 for $174.99 woooo whoooo

My last upgrade was the atrix 4g in April 2011 and I told the lady over the phone I wanted to upgrade and she sad sure. So she said "what phone were you looking at?" I said "the galaxy s2" and so when I was paying with my CC she said 174.99 I was like "this is for the galaxy s2 right?" she said " yes the galaxy s2"
I don't really know why but it was a surprise to me compared to $229
If anyone wants to try I call 611 and went to more options and then contract cancelation.
The people at the store did not want To help so I was at the tmobile store ready to switch when I called I also let her know that incase anyone wants to try it

I got mine for 49.99 + tax after calling at&t and asking them to match Amazons price. They just said how about we give you a bill credit of 150 which covered my cell bill for the month. I still put out the 199 but to me the 150 in credit was the same as 50 for the phone...

Still Waiting........
....I'm still waiting also. Talked with AT&T and they said they were swamped with orders and quickly ran out of stock from the weekend order. They don't know when they are getting there next shipments in....Nice!
What also sucks is AT&T gave their own customers preference over non-AT&T customers when filling the orders with the stock they had. Nice! I say that because there are members on here who ordered after I did and got their lapdock already. I ordered with my debit card so their should have been no hold up except I'm not an AT&T subscriber. It would be nice if they would post that info on their site so consumers can make an informed purchase!
AT&T Customer Service...Sucks!
So, after talking with a rep on the phone, I then requested to talk with a Supervisor. I told the Supervisor that it's ridiculous that they can't tell me when they will be getting the Lapdocks in stock again. I then asked if they would give me a refurb model since they have those in stock and they told me they would have to charge me $25 dollars more for the refurb. I said are you kidding me! No wonder you are losing to your competition! I didn't take them up on their offer and will wait for my $50 NEW Lapdock. AT&T SUCKS!
Alright...... i will say this again. I work tech support.... for at&t not in mobility although. For some odd reason this is a company wide issue home dept, mobility, techs in the field are backordered. I am believing due to the increased amount of shipping this year and manufacturers themselves, im here to help... and by helping i mean tell you not to waste your time calling into at&t. ****s backordered. Everywhere.... what you see on your screen is what that agent sees. Simple as that and that supervisor saw att has referbs to pass out on ATT.COM thats why she quoted $75

have you read the contract? I am sure it's in there.
I think that's pretty normal for most companies. Your in a 2 year contact so that are guaranteed 24 payments from you, so charging you a month ahead is because your going to have to pay anyway until your 24th payment.

$250 or $300 is still a rip off weather it has ICS or not! Beside the way ics has been on other devices and from some reviews I don't really think its gonna be anything spectacular.

Lol comments like these are dumb. Rip off? Like you can find a gnote for cheaper? Unlike your cheap arse, SOME of us are willing to spend that amount for a phone. ICS? please...theres no official high end ICS US phone besides the gnexus thats out yet. Idiots think a phone isnt "worth" or it lacks because it doesnt have ICS. Heres some news for ya...some of us actually like/enjoy GB. Go get a F'in clue.
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
The 16GB is internal memory. It doesnt come with an actual micro SD card.

If you had a termination fee that means you left sprint, therefore you'll have a higher monthly bill no matter where you go. Also, you'll have a metered internet cap with your spanky new 4G LTE phone, and therefore you've also opened yourself up to an overage bill on the internet if you are a moderate to heavy user.
Enjoy your new phone.

Hello,
Thanks to being able to bill to my account, I ordered a 64gb iPhone 5 today. I am honestly not sure if I am going to end up keeping it as I have been using Androids since 2.1 (Eclair) and I really like the platform. However, I am frustrated that Sprint frakked the Photon 4G replacement and I am not fond of Samsung (too plasticky) and to a lesser extent HTC.
I was honestly praying that Sprint would get some sort of version of the RAZR. The Intel Atom powered RAZR looks amazing, but has only been announced for Europe and I think Asia.
Being with Sprint since 1999, I really am conflicted about the iPhone in general. Thanks to Sprint having to pony up Billions of Dollars just to offer the bloody thing. they have done away with the Premier Gold Program replete with 12 Month Upgrades, the ability to bill equipment to your account at any corporate owned Sprint Store, and far less understanding Account Services actions.
That being said., it will be nice to have tons of options for Accessories where with the Photon there are hardly any. Still, I am hoping a flagship Android Phone is announced by Sprint in the next month.
Cheers,
JJ

My wife just got the iphone 5 and it's pretty impressive. I don't understand why people here sound so indignant that a photon user would be jumping ship. There is a market for the iphone obviously. I find it a foolish exercise to try and compare phones and platforms. At the end of the day they do the same most of functions. At the end of the day
Choice of device is a personal one. If on the day I told myself I now longer care to think about my tech I might move to a different platform as well. People have reasons for moving to ios, and are better for it in many cases.

Is there no one saddened by the news of an Iphone convert simply because he was able to pay about what the phone is actually worth, $40?
Wouldn't you jump ship if you could get a Cryphone at a cheap price?
I'm sure there's plenty of people in 3rd world countries that would love to have this phone rather than something like food or shelter. How else
are they going to shoo the flys away?
