FIOS called me a few years ago. Their price for internet/TV/phone package sounded attractive.
But at the time I didn't have a working computer - only dial-up via WebTV. The FIOS operator said WebTV couldn't be used with FIOS. And she told me I couldn't use my VCR with FIOS either. So I passed.
I've heard that FIOS is very frustrating to get changes or cancel services. And worse! Two years ago, a friend near Winchester VA. got 'slammed' by Verizon. She started getting billed for FIOS. In her neighborhood FIOS isn't even availible. After multiple calls & hangups, they finaly agreed to cancel. Then she came home from work the next day to find she no longer had any phone service at all!

Happy Motoring, Mark
