Get a $50 AMEX Gift Card for signing up with Verizon FIOS
There’s a catch.
You have to set up your installation for their first available Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday of the month. Seems pretty simple for $50. Even though our order isn’t complete because we want the quoted discount per the contractor that came to our house a few weeks ago, its still a good deal.
We don’t want the bundle because my husband wants the NBA League Pass only available through Crapcast. We also don’t need their Freedom Choice plan because we have the lowest available for roughly $12 a month which is just to make sure that our alarm system has a line to call out should we experience a break in. So we just want FIOS Internet for $34.99 and not $39.99 per the telephone sales rep I just talked to. But I hate Crapcast so much that I know I will call back tomorrow to set it all up through Verizon. After all, they are giving me an unexpected extra $50.
Frugality ROCKS!
**Update**Â
We told Crapcast that we were going to leave them for Verizon FIOS and they lowered our cable and internet bills. We now pay $19.99/month for Internet and $24/month for cable which includes all the premium channels. They said over 30,000 people left them for Verizon FIOS. ROFL!!!!

I currently have Comcast. I originally wanted Verizon, but their customer service STUNK! But that “$19.99-please-don’t-leave-us-for-verizon” rate sounds amazing!

Really? Ive loved Verizon all around for a while now but Ihave heard from others that their CS stinks so there must be something to it. I do agree that depending on what you are looking to get resolved it can get sticky but to avoid all of that I just put them on auto and let it roll.
Call up Comcast and threaten to leave. Just say that you’re going to go to VZ for their FIOS deal.
