It sounds like a lot. But really its the same thing as before for the most part, with a few tweaks.
If you have TEC you still get overnight fed for free
As far as damaged phones all it means is they are now enforcing the rules..
Pretty harsh approach, I think. It seems hard enough to get a claim approved at all nowadays. It's a very fine line consumers have to walk to get any satisfaction. I suspect Asurion will suffer as well due to consumers having to adjust their decisions. For my smartphone, due to it's high replacement cost, I may be tempted to buy insurance. At least for a while. With the now narrowed acceptable requirements for a successful claim, especially considering how many replacement phones I have seen returned because Verizon sent junk to the customer, I will have to balance insurance premiums .vs its cost effectiveness. The moment I feel that premiums + deductible exceed buying a replacement from a third party (read eBay), I will cancel the insurance, instead of carrying it through most of my contract.
As for my family's phones (the other 4) I will not buy insurance under those circumstances, it is too big of a risk now. Sorry Asurion.
Retaliation for the Facebook attack.
WOW we have this much influence and we won't post on their sites until tomorrow, April 1st. Imagine what will happen on April 2nd!
Still contend that is an April Fools Joke. VZW is fantastic to have the web pages up and running before changing things.

At the last minute, yeah. But, yeah, this is definitely an April Fool's joke. Not even Verizon could be this dumb.
Nothing because verizon does not care enough about existing customers their concern is new customer acquisition after all we are bound by ETF
