Used to have 25/15 speed for $14.99...

I've had the FiOS Triple with internet speed 25/15Mbps paying $14.99 for that speed.  It works fine for me, I don't need faster, I don't want slower.  So Verizon pulls that speed off their options.   They convinced me to go with 25/25Mbps, and today I see on my bill that it will cost me $35 a month, minus a $5.24 contract discount.  Verizon, are you nuts?  You're doubling my price for something I don't really want, and the alternative speed you provide is a crawl compared to what you used to provide?   Aside from going even faster (35/35Mbps - I don't even care to know the price of that), the only other option is to go slower to 15/5Mbps.  By going from the 25/25 to 15/5, my $119.99 bundle payment goes to $109.99.  So the 25/25 at $35 drops to 15/5 at $25 - HEY, that's more than the $15 I paid for the higher speed 25/15!!!  And what really gets my goat nowadays are these adds for new customers that can get their multi-room DVR free for life if they keep a triple play plan ... FREE FOR LIFE!!  Mean while, silly me, long time customer, I get to pay $20 a month for my M-R-DVR - $240 a year.  Am I stupid or what!  Verizon, you make me mad.  I think it's time to see what lies beyond FiOS.  You no longer care about your custiomers.

Man, I wish I could have gotten a 25/15 connection for $15 a month! 😞 If you were able to get that kind of pricing back then, that was a steal since the cheapest FiOS Internet package I've seen was $20 a month bundled for 5Mbps/2Mbps...

Verizon is not to be trusted.   They will not post the truth. Verizon says there is a support message.  Verizon says there is a private message.  THERE IS NO MESSAGE.  ONLY A MINDLESS COMPUTER THAT SPITS OUT GARBAGE.  WHERE IS THE OFFER I ACCEPTED AND YOU DID NOT PROVIDE.   CANT BE to specific in this message or Verizon will "remove post".  No freedom of speech here.

Do you have any suggestions regarding $14.99.  I was paying that amount and the price was increased.   The original offers was $14.99 for life - I do not trust Verizon.

Any suggestions please let me know.

Were you forced to switch from DSL, because I have had FIOS since 2005, and have never seen a deal like that. I know in the past there have been offers that have been taken out of the system, so if you change anything, what you had WILL be gone and never return.
