Unhappy long-time customer - Pls empower your employees - Early contract term

I've had Verizon Fios for several years...and when my company restructured, I was out of a job.  I changed my bundle plan to be more affordable.  When I was hired with a new company in an enitirely different city, Verizon was not available or offered, thereby not allowing for transfer of services, and eventual need for cancellation.

I understand the early termination is contractual, and agreed upon, but there should be some employee empowerment to give exception in the situation of those that can't transfer service, and have to cancel.  Instead, I was repeatedly given the line, "I'm sorry, your situation is not one of the contractual exceptions. It is in the contract".  

It truly is unfortunate that the last parting gesture of Verizon on a long-time customer, who had no problem staying with Verizon, is to charge a gouging-feeling fee.  Going forward, I cannot, in good faith, recommend Verizon to any prospective customer, for their technical services, knowing their consumer-relations services seems based solely on the dollar.

This chart was posted by another member on a similar "unhappiness" issue.  When the customer said they would be leaving Verizon for another provider, they were told to enjoy their service with an even worse company.  Just to clarify the poorness of expectation...Being a C- student in a class of D- to D+ students, doesn't make you a smart person.  It makes you slightly more intelligent than the 65ish percent of people that are near failure.
