Re: AOL/Verizon DSL questions

I'm asking this for my grandmother. She was an AOL dialup user and
decided to switch to DSL. She got some sort of plan that looks like
it's a joint plan with AOL and Verizon. The DSL is through Verizon but
she still gets AOL. The paperwork for the plan has both AOL's and
Verizon's logos on it.

I've checked both AOL's and Verizon's websites and I don't see anything
about joint plans or anything that resembles the plan she got. Verizon
offers two plans with different speeds and costs that look fairly good
to me. My grandmother was offered only one speed and it seems pretty
sucky to me.

We're wondering if anyone knows if AOL and Verizon offer a joint plan?
She's wondering if she got ripped off.

It's Verizon's lowest tier DSL service, which tops out at 768Kb/s.
Verizon offers 768Kb/s service for $14.95/month with a 1-year agreement.
The AOL/Verizon bundle is $25.90/month.
If AOL includes the taxes and fees in that $25.90, it's not really so
bad for the convenience of not having to change email addresses and
learn something new. If taxes & fees are tacked on, it's no bargain
(the $14.95 Verizon plan runs about $20.00 when taxes and fees are
included).
