PowerVision plan in a Non PV area

[Sept1967]

This may have been already talked about, but I didnt see it.

I recently bought a new phone (and of course followed the - have to have new PowerVision on plan from rep). Since I already had a 2 year $10/month discount towards vision, they did the same for PV. No big.

So today I call in having web/pic mail problems. While on the phone, I asked (just to see the response) why I had to sign up for PW when PW isnt in my area ( I knew this already). The rep said he would look into it , and a few secs later, said he lowered my off-peak starting time from 9pm to 7pm as a consolation. I didnt even ask, he did for the full 2 year term of the contract. I kept all of my recent, and previous perks to the account.

I think it might be in the computer , if anyone asks about PV in a non-PV coverage area, to just offer them something.

I told em off about paying for PV when I dont have it at home and then having to pay for SMS that was free before. They gave me a $275 credit and SMS for free :)

The nights at 7pm is something they have been giving away for a while. I got it bout 8 months ago for free. Now I understamd a number of peope have gotten nights at 6pm free.

I would definitely ask for some compensation if they make you have the PV plan. Doesnt make sense if you can't currently use it.
