Verizon has my eternal hatred

[unicornduke]

I've been getting mailed notices from Verizon, they're upgrading their network and anything 3G doesn't work. Weird I said, my phone doesn't even use 3G why are they sending me this notice? 

 Well, what they're saying is that my lovely Unihertz phone isn't compatible with the new 4G/5G network, despite the fact that I think it is. 

I had called customer service and they said that I needed a new sim card, so I went into the store and they said I needed a new phone. So I've pulled out the phone I had last replaced, a moto g power 2021 which I cracked the screen very badly on two weeks into owning and shoved the sim card back into. Tomorrow or later today I'm going to call them and confirm 100% that this phone is compatible with the new network. If it isn't, I'm going to demand they give me a new phone for free because I'm still paying off this stupid broken phone. 

And when the new network gets put up, I'm simply going to put my sim card back into my atom l because I looked at the specs and it has the exact same 4G network capabilities as the moto g power. 

I'm fucking pissed and I really can't afford a new fucking phone right now because I just put new tires on my fucking truck.

I've never had a good experience getting a phone. It's no fun and I'm really frustrated because I like my little unihertz. I hate phones that break easily and I want to be able to use a phone one handed and have it fit in pockets without risk of falling out and apparently that's a tall order these days. I despise the giant phones and the cases make it worse. Pretty sure I'll be good to switch back to my normal phone in a couple of months once their checking is done.
