Verizon's "More Everything" plan adds to the data while prices remain the same

Seriously...

If they would up the regular data plan to at least 6GB for $30 then I would definitely have no problem using my upgrade but for now I'll stay with my Unlimited Data plan and just buy phones outright or from Craigslist.

Coverage and my 25% global discount is what's keeping me with them. C'mon TMobile, build yourself up so I can finally make the switch.

5-6gb should be 30 dollars. Not 2-3gb. Until they remotely get competitive on that, I'll never switch. I blame the iPhone. It wasn't till VZW got the iPhone that they went completely uncompetitive.

That's odd, because I work at Verizon, and as far as I know, if you have umlimited data, and you upgrade, there's the Verizon Max that you can do, which is 6gb for 30 dollars.

That's because you work at Verizon. I never knew that when I had to switch to the new plan, and nobody sure as hell told me.

I actually don't know anybody that knew about that promo when they had to upgrade, so it's probably one of those hidden promos that they'll only admit exists if you explicitly mention it.

Omarcito, the 6GB of Data he speaks of is only offered to Verizon customers who are on "Grandfathered" Unlimited Data and pay $29.99 for the feature; it's an incentive to give them a subsidized phone and get them off of Unlimited Data in the process, thereby, allowing them to upgrade with a discount. This is only beneficial to those who have Unlimited Data and use under 6GB of data. Yours truly, PAPINYC, has been begged by VZW CS reps' to partake of this but, I can not live or exist without my Unlimited 4G LTE Data .... lol

I fully accept my destiny: to pay "Full Retail" or buy on Craigslist the rest of my PAPILIFE!!

Fyi i was a verizon customer for 8 years had UNLIMITED data but was paying like 140 for 1 phone. Also if u been reading my last posts i cancelled verizon because in los Angeles verizon LTE is sloow compared to at&t n tmobile lte, and also i got only 3G in my loft in dwtn la and many stores it dropped down to 3G. Like really 1-3 dwn full bars lte in dwtwn La? Now on at&t paying less my loft and stores att maintains LTE and 10-15 on lte, not missing verizon ONE BIT.

Well, I'm just beside myself Omar, they really bent you over big time; I can't imagine paying $140 bucks for one phone, that's just outrageous and ludicrous. On top of that, it sounds like you had "Sprint-like" service: add injury to insult - GHeeeez!! I think that maybe your slow data speeds were due to all of those folks "South of the Border" there illegally tapping into phone lines - ooooh ChiHuaHua!!!

Si me canse de estar pagando tanto pol un telefono. Anyways if they would have told me they had that 6 gigs for 30 bucks 3 weeks ago i would of stayed.. Pero nada ,now on at&t i pay alot less 60 unlimited mins,.txts and 2 gigs of data and if i want more data its 10 bucks a gig. I dnt need lots of data maybe like 7 gigs a month thats like 80 a month on att go phone. And coverage aint that bad BETTER than tmobile i also had tmobile coverage was crap. And i also like i can use whatever phone i want rite now using nexus 5 which works on all atts 3g n 4G bands, tambien lo que me gusta de att que sirve EN PR verizon Would roam att dnt.

Really slower speeds? Never noticed any slower speeds there

I have VZW and anytime I'm in LA its way faster than San Diego Market, and family who own ATT phones receive less signal bars anywhere near tall buildings or inside them. That is a drawback many ATT owners tell me is the sudden loss of signal; thus, less than optimal speeds for data usage.

The ultimate issue is we american's buy and pay for coverage we have no need for. So people buy Verizon because of their coverage map when they never nor will ever travel outside of certain areas. I switched to T-mobile because i have no use for rural coverage. Plus i was tired of paying next to 300 for 3 lines when now I am paying like... 170.

In response to Penny. None of the Verizon's in my area talk about the 6GB option I noticed. I work for Best Buy and we tell every customer that option if they have Unlimited.

The new data pricing is for any customer whether on contract or not. The discount for edge customers is off of the line access fee. Its still expensive but better then before
