Is Verizon Wireless Making It Harder to Avoid Charges?

Cell-Phone companies are making outrageous increases in their data plans, also they have mysterious charges that if you don’t paid attention to the details in your bill you can easily skip that’s one of the reasons why most of the customers are contacting their service provider to block services that they don’t use and don’t want to get charge. Is unbelievable how they can use expensive phones to promote their company and attract more customers to enroll in those 2 year contract that have you stuck with the same phone. Also, they sometimes don’t even offer the same insurance plan for those expensive phones so it is ridiculous how companies like Apple is making a lot of money out the new I-phone when it is only a year since they came out with the last version. AT&T in conjunction with apple are making a lot of money because they are even letting the customers that have only a year with the last version to upgrade, but of course they will be renewing their contracts, and they are making it look like they are doing you a favor because they are letting you upgrade your phone early, but it is all about the market because they are making money out of it because you have to paid for the phone and you will have to sign a new contract. I think cell-phone companies are using great market strategies because the techniques that are being use are an excellent way to promote their new phones like the new HTC from Sprint and Verizon. I think all the companies are trying to avoid charges due to the instability of the economy.
