Or more to the point, the disclaimer at the bottom of the coverage area maps is a complete and utter insult to human intelligence everywhere...I live in Panama City, Fl, but I travel frequently and this issue is not confined to my area. However, I will relate it to my area, specifically the 9 mile drive to work. If one cares to look at the attched picture, it is easy to see that VZW claims 4g coverage pretty much throughout my county. The arrows indicate where my phone does infact show a 4g signal, but it is completely unusable at three of them and the others may as well be 1x. IF MY PHONE WOULD AUTOMATICALLY SWITCH TO 3G, I probably would have never got so irritated, but since VERIZON FORCES MY PHONE TO REMAIN IN 4G EVEN THOUGH I HAVE AN UNUSABLE SIGNAL, I tried to get it rectified. Which just led to more frustration, which led to this rant!
How can the FCC or BBB, or any other governing body allow a corporation to practice what amounts to BLATANT FALSE ADVERTISING??? It doesn't matter what kind of spin anyone puts on it, it is uncategorically the most UNBELIEVABLY OFFENSIVE, EGREGIOUS EXAMPLE OF "WE ARE A HUGE CORPORATION, AND CAN SAY AND DO ANYTHING WE PLEASE AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT" FORM OF CORPORATE ARROGANCE I HAVE EVER SEEN.
