"Residential Verizon customers can now take advantage of the company\u2019s fastest-ever FiOS Internet service.\nCalled FiOS Quantum, the new Internet tiers offer upload/download speeds of 50/25, 75/35, 150/65 and 300/65 Mbps. The latter three speeds are twice as fast as what was previously offered by Verizon.\n\u201CA revolution in speed has arrived,\u201D said Bob Mudge, president of Verizon\u2019s consumer and mass market business unit. \u201CThe new FiOS Internet speed and bundle options provide incredible value, and represent the most significant mass scale, consumer broadband speed enhancement in the nation in the past decade.\u201D\nThe company will continue to offer its entry-level speed of 15/5 Mbps as well.\n\u201CAs consumers stream and watch more movies, sports and shows in their homes and on devices other than traditional TVs, such as smartphones, tablets, gaming consoles, Smart TVs and Blu-ray players, they need faster broadband to enhance their experience,\u201D said Mike Ritter, CMO for Verizon\u2019s consumer and mass market business unit.\nThe service is available as a standalone service as well as part of Verizon\u2019s double and triple-play bundles. \nExisting FiOS customers can upgrade to the new plans with no upgrade fee. Verizon says upgrading will typically cost customers between an additional $10 to $15 per month, and will double or triple the speed of their existing plans. \nThe top-of-the-line 300/65 Mbps plan will be available only as a stand-alone product for $209.99 on a month-to-month basis, or for $204.99 with a new two-year contract.\nThe new faster speeds will not be available in all areas. Customers interested in the service can visit Verizon\u2019s website to determine if it is available in their area."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
