FiOS Turned On in Jersey City

Jersey City is among a new set of communities connected to Verizon's fiber optic services, the company announced. Details on the neighborhoods where the service is being offered were not released, though a cursory search revealed several downtown addresses are still unable to receive service. Verizon's fiber optic network is a new competitor to the one time cable monopoly with New Jersey granting the former phone company a statewide license for television broadcasts last year. The FiOS services offers a faster internet connection than most residential cable options. Verizon has not however, remedied their horrendous customer service.
