98Formula Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I have 450 minutes, unlimited data, 2 GB and pay $92 a month with a work discount of 8%. Every time I talk about this with people I always hear of how they some how got a better deal. Whats up with this? Am I paying to much?

Unfortunately, like most people if you have unlimited date you are stuck on the plan you have unless you want to lose it. Have you tried calling Verizon and seeing that they can do?

Coaster Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 unlimited data, 2 GB ... Did you mean unlimited texting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Unlimited data but you say 2gb? Who the hell doesn't have unlimited talk and txt? Look at how much data you actually use and you can probably get cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Am I paying to much? Yes. Have you called Verizon? Stopped in a store? The Edge plan sucks, but it's better than what you have. What kind of phone are you using? How is your credit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Formula Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I have a 4s, I know it's old 3G sucks too and I meant unlimited text. I'll stop in a store and see how it goes. I've been with verizon for 10 years, good credit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbs3000 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Basically all Verizon plans now are unlimited talk and text and you buy data. You should be able to save a little and no contracts are involved. Also, if that's really all you use your phone you may benefit from one of the cheaper plans at at&t or T Mobile.

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'm at 100 a month on att with 450 talk, unlimited text, unlimited data. I think the only way you could cut your bill is signing up for their version of NEXT Plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 $50 a month here for "unlimited" everything. LTE speeds up to 1GB. I just got my invite to join Project Fi. For the same deal I have now at T-Mo it will be $30. https://fi.google.com/signup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 LTE speeds up to 1GB. You mean you get a whole 1GB of data at LTE speeds? (Up to 1GB of 4G LTE data. Speeds reduced after 1GB.) WOW! :dumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW! :dumb: Yup...I never go over it, and I also don't pay $90+ a month and then get raped if you do. I stream all the music I want too because T-Mo doesn't count it towards you data.

Mr. Jones Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 I usually do 25-40gb just on my line alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 I usually do 25-40gb just on my line alone. I don't even know how that's possible. I think the highest I ever went was like 2gb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morabu Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Yup...I never go over it, and I also don't pay $90+ a month and then get raped if you do. I stream all the music I want too because T-Mo doesn't count it towards you data. T-Mobile: 1 Verigay: -9000 I gotta agree with you here. I pay $30 for T-Mobile and get 5GB LTE and unlimited texting. The only negative of my plan is i only get 100 minutes to talk. That's what i use Google Hangouts for though. It's my own version of Project Fi. Been using this setup for like 2 years now.

99StockGT Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Ah the ability to tether unlimited data I used 6GB of data over 17 hours on a trip to Florida, kicked my phone into Hot Spot mode and had 3 laptops/tablets streaming content the entire trip. Now, I had to leave my phone plugged in the entire time and it damn near melted through the dash but yippe! *From one of those who holds onto his Verizon unlimited plan with a death grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankis Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 I don't know how unique this is, but I have a Verizon plan through work that is unlimited everything. $20 is deducted from my paycheck once a month to allow for all the personal use I want.

justinwebb Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I have Unlimited data, unlimited text and 450 talk with ATT for $70. Cant tether though sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evan9381 Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 i'm grandfathered in to unlimited data. have 450 minutes and 500 out of network texts. i use a lot of data, usually 10-12gb/month and sometimes close to 20. i text most people through facebook messenger so i rarely even get close to 500 actual texts. i maybe use 100 minutes a month. my bill is like $91. it would cost so much more to switch to a capped data plan. i don't have internet at home (rarely there), so I couldn't just switch to wifi to keep the data down. not to mention, when i did have internet at home, my 4g was consistently 3-4x faster than my home internet, so I'm not gonna switch to a slower connection. edit - i read that i could pay an extra $30/mo to be able to tether my unlimited data and use it at home on occasion, and the verizon reps said no. so, i guess my next step is to root my phone (still on a GS3) and do it for free if they don't want my $$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tindall2006 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I pay 45 a month from verizon pre paid and get unlimited text/talk and 1.5 gig of data. My work, home and school have WIFI so I never use data. Should I need extra data I can get a 3gig block for 15 bucks I think. Rolls over for 90 days. I have yet to go over on my data though. It might be possible Verizon still see my unlimited plan on data though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that one isn't available, I'm sure there are others that would work without rooting your phone. Something to check into... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wease Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I don't even know how that's possible. I think the highest I ever went was like 2gb Jones streams more midget amputee porn than anyone else on the planet, that's how... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
