Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

T-Mobile CEO takes aim at Verizon in 2016 predictions: ‘These guys don’t get it’

"Seriously. Look at the year they’ve had…. They hike activation fees, roll out perma-cookies, increase rates on grandfathered customers, fine customers more than a billion in overage penalties, hit one poor couple with a $2 million bill, spend billions launching Go90 (the video service no one wants or asked for) … and then spend billions in advertising telling us “better matters.” How tone deaf can you get? These guys still just don’t get it."

"Who cares what T-Mobile says?"

Apparently, everybody, including millennials, who VZW is supposedly trying to court, doing things like buying legacy, non-millennial companies like AOL and soon, Yahoo.

John Legere lampooning VZW is kind of on-point & succinct. A CEO calling-out another rival, using words like, "stupid" & "Dumb & Dumber", is not unprecedented, but sure is notable and newsworthy. Millennials like that.

Hey, you asked.

CWA just needs to keep shaming customers out of Verizon Wireless stores and it will begin hitting their bottom line soon enough.

It's funny to get profitable the wireless side stole from wireline. Now most debt is placed on wireline to continue to prop up wireless. Like or not network superiority is not going as planned. As the middle class shrinks so does Verizons profits. Leger is owning McAdam, the need is still getting pick on.

Who cares what T-Mobile says? They are the service provider for unemployed, illegal immigrants and now VZ Wireline associates that want to make a point. When the union encourages its members to move their service over to a competitor, you can really see how they brainwash their members. It makes no sense, this post makes no sense. VZW will be a loser like T-Mobile if they let union people near it. Stay away from the profitable side of Verizon, please!
