Verizon Offering Buy-One-Get-One-Free Sale on BlackBerrys

The deal covers BlackBerry's hot touch-screen Storm, the Curve, the Pearl, the old-school 8830, and even a few non-BlackBerry phones, like the Palm Centro. You'll also get a $70 gift card after rebate on everything but the Storm, and with the Pearl you'll get $100 back! The buy one, get one (or BOGO) deal starts this week and runs through the end of March, so you have a bit of time to get shopping. But, make sure you read the fine print, as you'll need two separate two-year contracts, one for each handset. Lame. [From: GeekSugar]

I thought about getting a blackberry but got a raspberry instead. I wanted the color of phone to match the B-9 mole on my 4-head.

I've been with Verizon for 6 months and they have never yet gotten my phone bill right. Every time it takes at least 2 hours in store to fix what really isn't that hard. Do the store computers and the actual billing people not get the same figures? I don't know, but my family is about ready to drop the whole plan we have with them and that would be 5 phones, as we are in a family plan.

I question Verizon's integrity. In trying to promote the Blackberry Storn, they offered a contest internally. if you sold enough, you's win a Storm of your own. Verizon employees jumped at the chance...only Verizon set the bar too low. Hhundreds, if not thousands, of employees qualified. So, Verizon's remedy? Go back and scrutinize each call these people took that sold a Storm..and FIRE them if there were any mistakes, no matter how small. Got them off the hook for the incentive package. Because, after all, when you take 50 or 60 calls a day, there's bound to be some kind of an error, right?
Just my opinion of the facts, of course, but I think this could be another class action suit against Verizon. Would love to see an investigative piece done...making sure all the customers who had "errors" found in their calls were also compensated.

Listen Verizon does not give away ANYTHING FREE!!! Period. There will be a catch somewhere. When dealing with Verizon buyer beware!!

I have never had a problem with Verizon.
The reps are very helpful and friendly when you call.
My only problem is with the cost of a phone line but that is with all of the the providers as well.
Check out other plans or drop some of your features if it is too expensive.

to Debbie 2/7 @ 2:29pm - You might as well get used to it, I have had Verizon for (10) years on a nationwide family plan. Starting late in 2008 and now into 2009 I am experiencing the same type billing problems. I confirmed that the store people, the billing people and the Kiosk's all have different figures for what you owe. And, unless you really PUSH the store management, you won't get the correct $ figure without a lot of push! Therefore you could end up paying more than is really due (to avoid being shown late). And it is (supposed) to reconcile on the next statement, although it does not always. Guess who keeps those thousands of $'s to invest for a few weeks? - you guessed it Verizon does. Remember what they say its ALL about the network right! Baloney, it is REALLY all about service. Also, the Kiosk's are even worse, if a credit has been applied, most of the time it doesn't show up! Due to the cancellation fees you might want to be careful about cancelling, just remember this when it is time to renew. They really don't care if you drop your service or not, they are already so successful. Too bad Sprint hasn't really stepped up to the plate, they could easily capatilize on those existing customers who are out of contract with Verizon if they only played on Verizon's service weakness. By the way recently got billed for a data package $49.99, TWICE, just because I have a (5) year old PDA that can do e-mails, yet I DON'T do e-mails--nor am i in contract, was told oh yea Verizon inplemented this back in Nov, 2008, I didn't see a notice did anyone else? Course I pursued a credit and wating to get all of it. Ya'll better check those bills you get even closer NOW!

My husband and I had Verizon and after our divorce, I signed up. I've never had a problem with them...never. Not being electronically illiterate, I wanted the most basic phone possible. The sales people didnt't try to upgrade me but I did on my own. If I had a problem, I just contacted Verizon and they corrected it. For example, a company kept texting me and I was charged for premium texting. The company continued until I told them I was contacting the AZ Attorney General. Verizon took the premium billing charges off my phone...and block premium charges from anyone. In four years, I've only had one dropped call...and it was an important one. Verizon compensated me on my bill. It would take a helluva lot for me to switch from Verizon.
