Re: Verizon trials unlimited text and data cellular plans

I got the email today, almost the same thing as Sprint has, Unlimited wireless calls(450 min to other numbers) , Text and Data for $69.99 a month. 1 Year contract requred tho.

I might of gotten the email because I have not been in a contract with them for over 5 years now (time does fly, doesn't it ?).

I guess becuase I have not needed to buy a new phone due to insurance (that $5.99 a month does pay off because unless it's physical damage, they will replace it with a referbed one with out paying the $50-100).

Last phone I had a contract on was a Moto V710 (Vzw's first Bluetooth phone, on release day I picked it up), picked up a XV6700 used from a dealer with no contract (last one, open box, $100), and it was covered under warranty.

Then over the years, due to problems with the phones, I was upgraded to a XV6800, now a TP2 (about 6 months ago).

Just waiting for a Nice WP7 phone before I sign another contract but, thinking about moving to AT&T now, due to coverage and VZW in general (customer service, bullsh*t I have gotten over the years).

Maybe I just got lucky or I'm just that much of a pain-in-the-a$$, not sure. I am one if there is a problem, trust me, they will hear about it, so maybe.

Who knows, I would go for the $69.99 a month price because I might save $5-10 a month overall but, because I am thinking about changing carriers, I guess I wont.

Re: Verizon trials unlimited text and data cellular plans

Is this plan you were offered online anywhere?

I found it elsewhere. I call ed the 1877 number and got an out of office message. So I called 611 and they said it was only for Texas. Has anyone had success or do I just need to wait til tomorrow and called the 1877 number listed on the promotion page.

Re: Verizon trials unlimited text and data cellular plans

Is there any type of plan similar to Sprint Sero type plans? I just can't see spending an extra 50-80$ to switch service but I really would like some of their phones than what Sprint is offering.

Re: Verizon trials unlimited text and data cellular plans

Looks like VZW is finally realizing what customers want. Lets hope this makes it out of "trials" and into the general plan offerings.
eenieMINI, I dont think there is any company out there that offers a plan similar to SERO. Virgin mobile has some plans that get really close, but their coverage isn't very good.

No, even in the email I got, it was a call in to enable it on your account, that is no way to add it to your account on-line. 1 year contract to update your account with a new plan, no thanks.
