| Re: Already on LTE Except that new device, regardless of whether you paid full price or not, will not be compatible with the currently offered data plans. They'll force you into it. Just like years ago when I was forced into a limited text messaging plan from the unlimited plan I had before even though I was only going from one dumb phone to another. If I wanted unlimited texting I had to upgrade to a higher plan. Somehow the new dumb phone wasn't compatible. Basically, they just wanted more money and were making up excuses. | |

| Simple. At the time they discontinued 4G unlimited they had less than 2 million devices on it. Verizon has a little over 100 million devices so this is about 2%, so their exposure is very low. Of course if you want to sign up any NEW device it will be under the family bucket at then they will make having unlimited untasty by raising rates, services fees, making you go two full years, less of a subsidy, etc... so gone will be the good old days.
For all those iphone lemmings (myself included) they are going to feel the full pain to get to 4G. Of course I had unlimited 4G until my employer made me get an iphone. I will get over it though, because using wifi smartly I have never gotten over 2G and if I am sucking wind I pull out my wifi which has 5G on it and just use that. Apparently my employer got me 5G for the iphone now too, so that is aok.
You see the marginal rate for a family plan is the fact that ancillary devices are already unsubsidized (ipad, etc) so by getting more of them on the network the better for them. The only problem is the family plan with subsidized phones, which say the parent uses 100mb and the kid 5G. So they get them off unlimited, now pool (at a higher BULK rate of course), add some "pooling fee", reduce subsidies on phones (that REALLY is coming), and charge more for more data, not a bulk rate.
The gotcha will be how they monetize texting/mms properly. I would assume that the smart way to do this is FORCE attachment of a text plan (say $10+) to a data plan with pooling, so their texting numbers look good, and that they are guaranteed almost pure profit in that category.
So at the end of the day you will have "pooling" but will be no better off, you will just have more ways to slice your wrist with more devices. | |

Although I had no issue going to the 4GB plan which was supposed to be the same price. At least two CSRs told me my price would be the same. When I found out it was more expensive they put me back on an unlimited plan and the same costs as I had with my 3G phone.
Although now I'm worried when I upgrade from my Rezound to a newer phone in 2013 that I won't be able to get the 4GB plan for the price of the 2GB plan. Which is what I had originally signed up for with my Rezound. And i would have been perfectly hapy with if the monthly price would have been the same like I was told. instead they tried charging me almost $20 more a month. $98 instead of the $78 it should be. | |

They wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't going to cost most people more money, and ergo, generate greater profits. In a market with weak competition, and also weak regulation, this type of activity is par for the course.

And who are you going to go with that will have unlimited LTE? Since noone will have unlimited I'll go with something cheaper, maybe even pre-paid. The only reason I'm tolerating $230 cell phone bill (3 lines) is because I have unlimited grandfathered. The funny thing is I only broke 4Gb in a month once, most months I don't get to 2Gb of data usage, but I do like the peace of mind that unlimited provides so when I do need it it's there. If verizon won't be able to do the simple math and leave my account alone, good bye to them | |

Sprint 3G is slow but 4G is still good, I'm getting 6-8Mbps and up to 12Mbps - unlimited. Good enough for me and I'm using 6-8GB/month, so VZW/ATT are out. A smartphone really only needs 3-4Mbps if that. Sprint stated they will continue unlimited with LTE. Doesn't look like they'll stop anytime soon as it's the only tool they have left. If you are in a Sprint 4G area, it is still worth considering, especially since LTE will have better coverage (and building penetration) than their WiMAX.

They should have been smart and did what Republic Wireless did and make their phones change to wifi calling if available. Would have saved them a TON of money.

That's the overage price per GB. and of course they will round up to the nearest gig. so if you have a 5gb cap and use 5,000,000,000.1 bytes you will get billed as if you used a full 6gb.

Ok Verizon has $20 unlimited texting plans but they also have a $30 unlimited family texting plan. OK if they are greedy and evil why offer something for $30 when you could make a family of four pay $80 a month for the same thing( 4 X $20 ). Isn't Verizon losing money this way? Even their $10 1000 text plan would be $40 a month. So why even bother to offer the $30 family plan? I mean since they are greedy evil fucks and all? | |
|
| | | | Re: waiting to see also Econ 101 fail (and naivety win.)
Do you REALLY think Verizon - a for profit company - didn't run the numbers when they made these changes? It's really simple - they can get more revenue out of the $30 unlimited plan than they can from the $20 ones because of number of customers that buy the $30 plan over multiple $20 plans.
Basically, they were making $30 per family on text plans on average over time and the trend had it staying there or going lower due to mobile IM or something similar. Based on that, they put out an unlimited 'family' plan that gets more people purchasing the plan overall and increasing revenue.
So...in short...100 families getting a $30 plan is more money than 20 families getting 4 unlimited plans (or other such plan combinations).
Add into it the mix that texting is a has a near zero cost to Verizon and the ONLY reason they change pricing is to get more customers and increase/maintain revenue and profit. That's it - no other reason. | |

Why doesn't some company see what is happening in France and offer competitive rates much lower than the current incumbent pricing models? They wouldn't make as much per customer, but they would get tons of customers.

So you say you can live without data and a smartphone but will drop your smartphone and data if the data is unlimited. Well if you can live without the data why does it have to be unlimited then? Obviously if you need unlimited then you CAN'T live without it. | |

| | | The day this happens on Verizon, I will take my smartphone to the store and throw it at the manager next I will demand a dumb phone with no text and no data in place of it as well as the $300 I spent on the smartphone. The next day I will go to work and get the crapberry out of my desk and return to using it for my email. There is no need for a smartphone when they put restrictions in place to make it a paperweight. | |

| Re: Without unlimited data I don't want a smartphone I agree!!
I just use mine to stream music now since im always driving. Will be quite a loss to me to lose the unlimited, ill likely just cancel my phone since I have a company issued "dumb phone" that id prefer to talk on anyways. I dont use the internet on it for anything else anyways. | |
