14 DAY TRIAL // Major carrier Verizon has just announced that it has created new options for customers that use its FiOS service, which will allow them to personalize it so that it can meet their individual voice, broadband and home-entertainment needs.
With the new change customers won't be restricted by Internet speeds and number of TV channels assigned to specific FiOS bundles and price points anymore, instead they will be able to choose and mix services to customize their bundles, at a cost of just $5 to $10 a month in additional incremental charges.
In addition, the carrier stated that discounts are available to new customers who order triple-play bundles online.
Verizon customers who add a new FiOS bundle or those who are adding a qualifying Verizon calling plan can receive up to a $10 per month discount on their bundle, if they include Verizon's One Bill and a two-year contract.
“For some customers, broadband Internet speed is more important than a lot of TV options; for others, robust TV rules the household; and some customers want it all,” said Mike Ritter, Verizon chief marketing officer for consumer and business services.
“Now, our FiOS customers have more options for personalizing their Internet or TV services to satisfy all their needs,” added Ritter.
According to Verizon, the new FiOS-only choices include Verizon's Worry-Free Guarantee of no term contract requirement, a premium installation and in-home demonstration, plus a follow-up satisfaction call.
However, potential customers should know that a two-year term contract is required when Verizon Wireless service is added to any bundle.
New customers who order online can go to Verizon's featured bundles page, click on the Bundle Builder link and, for a limited time, receive a $10 per month online discount on their triple-play bundle.
