I'm fairly certain I already know the answer to this, but is there any chance FiOS TV will be coming my way any time soon? I mean, I know the economy's not so great (although it's making a come back; I can feel it), but seriously, Houston? It's only the nation's 4th largest city! I love verizon. My cell is through them, my FiOS internet is through them, and I don't have a land line because I don't need one, but if I did, I'd go verizon. I hate my DirecTv (I know they are affiliated with verizon) and my contract is going to be up soon. My only other option here (besides Comcast, who I'm fairly certain just about everyone hates) is Dish. I don't hate Dish, but I'd soooo rather have FiOS TV. I'd even be willing to wait some time for FiOS TV, if only I could be reassured it's coming. I just can't believe a city as huge as we are doesn't have it yet, especially when smaller cities in Texas (Dallas/Ft Worth) do have it. It seems slightly backwards and somewhat illogical. I know most people in my area have verizon for internet/phone/wireless, and I'm pretty sure they'd be all over FiOS TV. So, is there any chance?... ![]()
PS -- I say Houston because it's simpler and it is the greater Houston Metro, but I actually live in League City.
Come up with a Standard $5.99 HD STB to replace the QIP-2500 that sales told me is no longer being offered. What are your plans for customers that do not wish to pay $10 a box? You do have a plan right? Would have been nice to let the customers in on it before hand. I turned in 2 QIP-2500 boxes last month and wanted them back. MY SD TVs have no benefit from the 2 HD boxes. No luck. I guess as long as I keep your HM-DVR they are cheaper than otherwise.
The My Verizon page just started using multi-factor authentication for access to the Account tab. While that is a good idea in principle, the implementation is a pain - the PIN callback to the DSL phone line means that the user cannot perform any account actions while away from home. (Allowing the user to specify a different callback number would defeat the authentication).
Please add an option to request multiple one-time-use PINs ("for another PIN, press 1") so that the user can create a pad of, for example, 10 PINs that could be used while working away from home. The user would scratch each PIN off the list as it is used, and refill the list when back at home.
- Please add a choice to allow sorting in “Trash” to allow most recently deleted emails to be at the top of the stack. If you delete an older email, it gets lost in the mess if you decide you want to look at it again, very difficult to find.
If I press Record in DVR, it should start recording from that point onwards instead of when I changed the channel . Now it is impossible to record snippets of my favorite shows.
Also,we should be able to change the title in DVR. I record Jay Leno show every day and it would be nice if I can edit the name to more meaningful
Why no Fios yet? Portsmouth, VA 1 mile away has it. Verizon has not even approached Suffolk Town officials for permission to offer service. Is this the end of the line for Fios??
FIOS 1 NEWS.
BRING FIOS 1 NEWS TO THE TAMPA BAY AREA IN FLORIDA. THIS WOULD BE GOOD COMPETITION FOR BRIGHT HOUSE NETWORKS BAY NEWS 9.
I am a reluctant Comcast customer. I would like to change to FIOS but will not use the large boxes required by FIOS -- too big and clunky. Also, Comcast has given me 3 std STB's and a HD STB for free each month. I hope this feedback gets thru to the FIOS product management and marketing teams.
I would like to see pay per view, for the NFL season. Either pay per view of a single game of any of the 32 teams, or a season pass for a specific chosen team out of all 32. Also with any other sports, soccer, basketball, hockey, single game pay per view.
The features Verizon Fios offers are great, but using the remote is not so great. I think adding a qwerty keyboard to the remote to make the features more user friendly is a necessity. It is awkward and outdated to use the remote to access all the great features fios offers.
Having a keyboard would make things simpler. Please consider this.
Thanks,

One thing I think would be neat is if My Verizon could use something like Google Maps and place a marker on all the destinations you've called from your landline phone. Useful- not really but I think it'd be a neat feature with some "cool" factor....
Please bring back Weatherbug. It was great, so handy and useful. Why even put it on the home page in the first place just to remove it from us ???
