Verizon putting focus on prepaid

T-Mobile added more prepaid than postpaid customers in the third quarter. So maybe the bigger companies are taking notice. I mention all this because Verizon sent out a press release to all the major outlets. In it they talk up their INpulse prepaid service, focusing on the low access fees (only on the days you use your phone) and the low maintenance costs. Most people who read this blog know how I feel. Daily access fees are rarely a good investment. It might lead to lower rates, but in the end the fee is a killer. Yeah, you get 10 cents per minute if you pay 99 cents per day with Verizon, but you can get 10 cents per minute without an access fee with Net10.]]>
