Verizon Pays Up Over Cellular Disconnections
Verizon is finally paying up for disconnecting over 13,000 users due to their breach of an unpublished download cap on its cellular broadband service known as BroadbandAccess. Following a nine month investigation by New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, Verizon has agreed to pay a fine of $150,000 to the state as well as reimburse users the price of laptop cards or cell phones they purchased to use the service.
In April, Verizon stopped disconnecting users over data usage, but maintained the right to throttle traffic for users who exceed a five-gigabyte limit, which they clearly disclose.
So users of these services should be wary of downloading bigger files like music, since that stuff can easily eat up a monthly five-gigabyte limit.

this is a tragedy i would have never thought anything would happen to any of the leading industries like verizon. they have been so successful in the past with service and everything. i can't believe this is happening.

I got rid of Verizon and so should you. I was dropping calls faster than the president spends money on the war or Bernacki bails out banks. They are the highest priced out there on top of their poor billing and customer support. Don't use AT&T either they are even worse.
