Well, I know that Bell Atlantic Nynex will give you a $50.00 rebate if
you sign up with them and use your own equipment. Me, my wife, & sister
all deal with Comcast Metrophone, and have all been contacted by Bell
Atlantic to switch over to them, offering the same deal that we get
with Comcast. They call and make us think that they're Comcast
offering an upgrade, but later we find out that they're the other
company. A dead givaway is when they tell us that we have to get a new
cell number. I already upgraded with Comcast, and I didn't have to
change a thing. They gave me a new phone, and programmed it. I have the
old phone in the closet, as it's mine from the company when I started
my first contract.
