    Verizon contract

    1. Has anyone tried to opt out of the contract without paying the ridiculous $300+ dollar fee? 2. When someone calls me, they hear the tone (idk the proper name) for 3 times, and only then my phone starts ringing. How can i make it so that my phone will respond quicker to calls?
