They are more willing to pay twice the price for service over a two year period than they are $100 or $50 more for the phone. I'm tired educating...go to Verizon folks...they will only charge you $200 for the phone. True, you'll pay $100 to $110 for your rate as opposed to $65 each month but who cares if its $1000 more over two years...look at how much less you paid for the "phone".

There's no reason TMO should charge more than VZW or Sprint for the same (or almost same) handset.08-25-11 12:00 AMLike 0 - Except in most cases, you can't make a straight comparison like that. The quality of service (in terms of voice quality, data speed, etc) is different. Verizon can charge more because, in general, they think they have better service. And I agree with that.
There's no reason TMO should charge more than VZW or Sprint for the same (or almost same) handset.
I would also disagree with your assessment of network quality. CDMA is slow and doesn't support simultaneous voice and data, HSPA+ is fast and does support voice and data, and where I live there's plenty of coverage.
And the argument is about something else altogether. If you buy a phone for full price from Verizon, you don't get a cheaper rate, you pay back the subsidy like everyone else. That's a rip off.
Compare with T-Mobile, which is completely transparent about their prices. You either pay in full, or pay in installments attached to your bill. There are no ETF's and BS subsidy repayments.08-25-11 12:15 AMLike 0 - Compare the fine print on a LetsTalk contract to an att contract, BIG difference, I would rather pay more and get it from att. If your time isn't worth a GD F"ing thing then by all means do buisness with LetsTalk.

Hey here's an idea, go to the respective websites and read the contracts. You can read right?
