They said they can give me a data plan but will not give me $100.00 or $150.00 off on pager. Trick deal. I guess it is their loss. I told them that it is not fair. Manager see my point and nodded but can't help. It is Verizon business.Dennisbaconsadventures.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21599060.post-55298607769934848982008-03-16T15:07:00.000-05:002008-03-16T15:07:00.000-05:00One more thing...

I contacted Verizon about the data plan only a few months ago, and they said that most of the cell phone and PDAs are compitable with TTY (a TTY with a plug in cell), so they don't grant you a data plan only. Verizon is not a deaf friendly company.<BR/><BR/>Julie B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21599060.post-6547513667684855252008-03-16T15:02:00.000-05:002008-03-16T15:02:00.000-05:00I have AT&T Tilt and I love it so far.

Yes, I had to have my doctor to sign to verify that I'm deaf, but it wasn't hard thing to do. <BR/><BR/>Julie B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21599060.post-82252544611468704812008-03-16T12:46:00.001-05:002008-03-16T12:46:00.001-05:00alsoharriscomm.comalso<BR/><BR/>harriscomm.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21599060.post-33601759373268468292008-03-16T12:46:00.000-05:002008-03-16T12:46:00.000-05:00try sprintrelaystore.comno need to verify that you...try sprintrelaystore.com<BR/><BR/>no need to verify that you are deaf...i have not bought from there yet<BR/><BR/>try fusewireless.com ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
