Is there any ETA for when business accounts with static IP addresses will be allowed to use native IPv6? Should we expect it in 2024? 2026? 2040? Never? Been waiting for like 8 years now, tunnelling helsewhere, and the 2023 posts were not really encouraging.
While from a technical standpoint, providing IPv6 for dynamic IP address users is easier and faster to brag about "adoption rates", us from actual businesses paying extra on a business account with another extra on top for static IP addresses to be left in the limbo feels like Verizon giving us the middlle finger, as we are not numbers enough to air it on the next ad, nor big enough to pay for our own AS and block.

The very fact that the IPv6 rollout seems to be paused or reverted for the dynamic-addressed residential and business customers would counter your argument about "IPv6 is rolled out for the purpose of bragging," as evident here https://stats.labs.apnic.net/ipv6/AS701?a=701&c=US&x=1&s=0&p=1&w=1&x=0 . Verizon is actively fixing problems along the way while adopting new Internet standards.
To be fair, the Service Level Agreement and Terms of Services you signed with Verizon never stipulated the deployment of IPv6 at a set timeframe.

So the 18 years as draft and the past 5 years after being an official Internet Standard were not hint enough for Verizon to take the technology seriously and plan on how to support what the entire world, competition included, knew it would be part of the future? Man, no wonder why you are lagging behind the big players such as Wave Rural Connect and Ponynet. Or many "3rd world country" carriers 10 times bigger than Verizon in customer numbers.

None of these even cite IPv6. Last I asked folks at Verizon about IPv6, nobody knew what I was talking about and tried to convince me I was looking for my IPv4 block as if I couldn't read.
Aside of focusing on my complain and casually saying "we are lost" without actually providing any meaningful update, guess I should assume the answer.
