There are 2 states for a network extender. Open (which it is now and any VZW phone will connect if in range) and closed (where they add a "white list" and only the numbers on said white list can connect to the extender) ask your neighbor to "close" his extender and add the numbers needed for him, thus locking you out from connecting to his extender. This is the only way to prevent your devices from connecting to his extender.

They are linked, they are seperate doors into the same room. If the information is different between teh 2 then they are linked to different phone numbers. (the cloud and the back up assistant info are hooked to the phone number not the device)

If he has an IPhone, he's in luck. Have him go into Settings > Cellular > Roaming  and turn OFF the Roaming Voice and turn off the International CDMA. He will probably loose all service out there but he will not be connecting to a Canadian tower either.

That i'm not sure of. I still get updates (not notifications) for facebook when that is restricted. I only see a number on the facebook icon but all notifications are turned off. you will atill get the notification that you have a new text but may have to hit a download button to get the attachment if the VM+ has the background restricted.

I have had the Galaxy series for a while, go into   Settings>Data Usage> scroll down to the list of apps using data and find the app using the background data. Select it then check the box that restricts the background data.

You can change the plan but you will pay the $40 line access fee untill the line(s) is/are out of contract and you can not get a new device just by changing to this plan. I think what confuses a lot of people is that they do not seperate the service plan (more everything/verizon/nationwide PLANS) that you pay for your service (talk/text/data) and a device payment or 2 year contract.

When you agree to an "EARLY EDGE" you get all the benefits of being on the payment program. (device payment discount, new device before your contract has ended) Your asking where is it documented that your contract would not end when you "early edge" Well, have you found anything that states that your contract WILL END when you Early Edge? no.....and you wont. But why would you care if the contract is over or not? You're getting the discount, you have a new phone....where is the problem?

Where they are is on the edge of Verizon service. They are really close to Canada and if the device says they are roaming then their phones are connecting to a tower in Canada. Roaming charges will apply unless the device states its connected to Verizon.

So good customer service would have been what....?  They replace the phone with a brand new out of the box device? If your motor cycle was broke but still in some type of warranty and you call for a warranty repair. they tell you that in order to do that you have to send your bike in for it to be fixed and it would get returned to you when its done. The thing is that it is your only ride and you find it unacceptable that you have to go with out your only ride for a while and your stuck. That is not poor customer service, its the warranty process. If you went through the manufacture of the phone for a warranty issue then you have to send in the phone, then they fix or replace it. Going through your carrier (AT&T , Verizon, Sprint) to get a replacement, they send out the replacement then allow you to send in the broken one. These are your only options with out having to buy another device outright. ( I think they could have shown you a less expensive device like the Galaxy Core Prime. $168 full retail) You got the options that were available to you and that does not mean you received poor customer service just because you didnt like the options that were available.
