Verizon's new data plan for international travelers allows 100MB for $25
With spring in full bloom and the first early signs of summer showing, Verizon has picked a right time to announce its new Global Data Plan for international travelers. Advertized to remove the “guesswork out of international travel,” the new plan is simple: you get 100MB of data for $25 a month. Shortly before you run out of your limits, you get a text warning and the option to purchase another 100MB for the same price.

The new plans come into force on April 23rd in lieu of $30/50MB, $75/150MB and $125/300MB options that existed so far. The new Verizon Global Data plans also make the carrier more affordable than rivals like AT&T that charge $25 for half the data, 50MB.

The new tariff works in some 120 countries including all of Europe, Canada, South America, the Caribbean and, of course, Mexico. Transferring one KB of data in countries not on the list where Verizon still offers service will cost 2 cents.
