Comment on Verizon offers iPad/MiFi Bundle on October 28, 1GB/mo for $20 no contractparent

When the said contract is over 25 pages long with legalese as the only language how can you expect anyone to know what they're saying? And cell companies know that if they make these terms unintelligible, they make more money.

How? With a little bit of effort. Spend 5 min. reading online reviews of the service before singing. Check the roaming rates before going to Canada, it takes 1 min. to find and read http://b2b.vzw.com/international/naroaming.htm

The EU has a 65$ cap past your standard bill. So you don't get bill shock over there. Instead, you get a message that states you are this close or exceeded the "loan".

Here phone companies literally give someone unlimited credit to hang themselves. Add that to 45 day period before you know about the bill. Yeah, its stacked against you.
