Verizon’s expensive bills are enough to drive anyone over the edge. In this commercial, entitled “Car”, we find a guy who is so fed up, he decides to fake his own death to try to get out of his Verizon contract. It seemed like a genius idea until Sprint customer, Paul, shows up to offer a simpler alternative: Switching to Sprint - a network that is within 1% reliability of Verizon and he can save 50% on his current Verizon rate.
