FiOS to Thonotosassa Soon (CONFIRMED)
« on: March 05, 2010, 11:33:57 PM »
Well, I should have said this a while back, but it's confirmed that Verizon FiOS is coming to my small town of 6,500. :D

I saw conduit getting lied in surrounding neighborhoods and I was getting super excited! :D

I will inform you guys if more news comes. :thumbsup:

Usually FIOS offers some good deals when they first go to an area. Probably be a while though if they are just putting the cables down

Not to burst your bubble, but just because they have laid the wiring and such doesn't mean you can automatically assume that you will have availability to FiOS soon. First, Verizon much construct a franchise agreement with the community, which can take time. Also, there may be a stipulation in that agreement that says they can't turn the service on until wiring is laid in a majority of the community (the franchise agreement with the City of Pittsburgh has something similar to that).

there is a large and growing demand for Fios in our area since Comcast is declining in popularity in South jersey but why won't they come to a certain area if Fios internet service is already avilable and there's large demand?
