Verizon, not ALL of your consumers are fools. In fact most are not. We KNOW you are jerking us around with speeds on Netflix. It is IMPOSSIBLE to have 30/20 speed on my iPad and yet less than .7mbps on my Apple TV or smart BlueRay player when I bring up Netflix in the same room!.
There is a reason the FCC is looking into your practices. And I plan to start a change.org petition. Either you work out your issues with Netflix without hassling your customers by throttling speeds or I will ask that you be declared in material breech of your agreement and I will have Cablevision back in my home and drop you like a rotten egg. I am already wired for Optimum and DirecTV. I don't need you.
STOP THE NONSENSE NOW!
Who's with me?
Let Verizon know you are sick of their nonsense by commenting below.

Looks like the FCC is going to decide who's at fault. I'm pretty sure Verizon is not going to be happy when their private records become public information. Verizon will have a very hard time spinning the fact they did not upgrade their network for the hopes of getting more money from Netflix. There will be some nonsense about Netflix paying their fair share that Verizon will claim.
Also Verizon slid to to the bottom half of Netfix's USA ISP Speed Index:
#10 Verizon down 2 places

i am about to switch to verizon, but now i have the second thought about it. I have netflix too. if playing netflic is problem over verizon fios, then i better stay with my cable. so far i don't have any problem with optimum internet. Ah! I even have optimum hotspot in my home. optimum have alot of hotspot, that is a extra.
get yourself together verizon, or you will lose all the customer
a current optimum customer

Verizon,
You cannot claim that this is Netflix's issue. Netflix works perfectly well on every other ISP that is available in my neighborhood. I can even play HD video on my AT&T mobile phone.
This is truly ridiculous. I am paying Verizon for 75mbit/35mbit internet and I can't play Netflix at night. It's constantly buffering and low resolution.
I will cancel my service if this is not resolved quickly.

You haven't done much looking at other ISP forums. Its not just Verizon. And even for Verizon not all users are seeing problems.

Maybe we will finally find out who to blame. There are several stories about the FCC wanting some answers. e.g. http://abcnews.go.com/Business/blame-slower-internet-streaming-fcc-find/story?id=24138190
and FCC doc

it is apparently verizon is slowing Netflix traffic.
evidence: 1. I can not get Netflix HD and my machine has to buffer frequently. speed meter for netflix is 0.5mbs.
2. when I switch watching to Amazon Prime. HD quality with speed up to 15mbs.
I called verizon and was recommened to up my speed for extra $10/month.
I smell fishy.

bbbb
that doesn't mean verizon is throttling, that means amazon knows how to route their traffic appropriately and that they choose wisely who manages their CDN's
Verizon recommending an upgrade was unneccessary
