I just started a new two year one day ago, havent recieved my phone in the mail yet called customer service, asked for retention and was connected to a retention specialist. I asked for the android preferred dataplan 5 gigs for 20 per month. he told me my account was unable to recieve this plan. i explained to him that ''my friend started a new 2 year a few days ago and got on this dataplan'' he said there was nothing he could do to get me on this plan. he then offered me the 5gig plan that also features hotspot thats usually $35 for $30. (this would be a good deal if i didnt know about the $20 5gig plan) but i declined. I politely asked for his supervisor. His supervisor told me there was nothing he could do and I ended the call from there. I waited 30 seconds, called back, got a different retention specialist, politely asked for the preferred dataplan $20month for 5gigs. He pulled up my account and told me he'd be able to apply it to my account and had to get it approved by his supervisor and put me on hold for a minute. he came back on the line telling me his supervisor approved it and i now have 5gigs of data for 20 bucks a month.
TL : DR version: If you call and ask for it and they say no, keep calling until you get someone who will work with you. They DO have the power to do it.
Just called up T-Mobile and spoke with a rep. She knew exactly what the plan was and said it was a promotional offer currently being given out. I already had the 5 gig plan a month at $30 with hot spot now I got 5 gigs minus hot spot for $20. Bringing me to $76 a month total for unlimited talk + text and 5 gig data. You do have to agree to a new 2 year contract though.
Thanx for the info.

I've bin wit t-mobile for about 6 yrs I got 3000 5 gigz data for $20. But now they call that a grandfather plan , I've just recently added two lines and complained about that same issue definitely will try that for my two out of four lines. Props for the heads up.
Anybody know if this works on value plans? I tried calling, but they said they didn't have it.
It'll work on value, kind of. It's a glitch at times really. If you're not gonna use tether, it's worth to save the $5 a month. If you want tether, pay the $5 to have it hassle free. I've been able to get it on value half the time but really, it's luck of the draw. If ya trust a stranger TMO rep online, pm me your # and I'll see if I can get it for ya.

20 bucks per month for unlimited data (throttled at 5gigs instead of 2)
I been with T-Mobile since voice stream left briefly for Nextel but returned to T-Mobile right after. My original plan was a promo plan 1000 minutes unlimited nights and weekends for 39.99 unlimited text for 15 and unlimited data at 20. My plan never went past 78 bux after discounts. I just recently changed my plan to unlimited and throttled data which I don't mind. I hardly go over 2 gigs anyway. Just didn't like the fact when I changed my plan to unlimited it increased by 10 bux. Now I'm back to what I'm comfortable paying for my service. I feel like I won because of the better plan.

You must not value your job much, you should know better then to offer to access someone's account without speaking with them directly. You should help him by telling him to call instead of putting your job at risk as your not supposed to access others accounts unless they are in store with you or on the phone with you.

I have 5 phones on my plan & 700 talk minutes shared between all of them.
We all text & have never come anywhere close to using 700 minutes until this month when we had a death in the family & my Wife talked a ton. We are about 5 minutes under the 700 & still a ways to go on this billing cycle.
Does anybody know what talk minutes cost if you go over the limit?? I looked on VZ's site but couldn't figure this out.
I don't want to call VZ & ask them because my Wife's phone has the unlimited data plan from the hotspot loophole & I don't want them looking too closely at my plan........
. 45/minute after 700.
The 1400 minute plan is only $20 more.

Thanks. I realize it's only $20, but I don't want to change anything on my plan & chance messing up the unlimited data thing (we all have unlimited data/texting).
I have had a cell phone for years & have never gone over the limit anyway & probably never will again.
I almost went over my 700 minutes last month, so I made my girlfriend (who is on at&t) download tango and told her to only call me on tango. that saved me from going over, but on the other hand, she almost exceeded her data lol

I don't really want to update the plan, it is too expensive now and I don't really need more minutes. We have never used 700 minutes in a month before and will probably never do it again.
My son and I absolutely hate talking on the phone but we text all the time. My Wife on the other hand can talk for hours on the phone but we have a $19 Verizon unlimited landline she can use for that.
Talk to your relatives on the landline. Sorry to hear about your loss.

Thanks (my brother-in-law died)
My Wife almost sh!t when she realized how much time she had used on the cell account. We used something like 300 minutes last month and for years that has been a normal month for us.
She is using the landline now and we just have to get through this billing cycle with VZ and then everything will go back to normal again.
Can't you use Google voice? Or does that drain minutes too?
If you're keeping track, and you notice you ever go over, CALL customer support, and they can change the minute plan for the CURRENT month, which will only cost the extra $20 or whatever. This makes it so no overages. When the next month starts, just call and have it changed back. Minute plans do NOT affect unlimited data and the like if changed. Only removing a line, or removing/changing data.
I had to do this a few times when my sister was on my plan (first time she racked up $300 in minutes...)
Used to do CS for VZW... If you do go over, just call and change it up. Anything more than 45 min over will cost you more than the $20 price difference. Like someone else suggested you can always change it back on the first day of your next bill. You might even be able to get them to future-date it aka change it back effective next bill cycle. They'd look more closely at your account for overage than a simply plan change. Those are very routine.

i have gone over before when my mom was using her phone for her company and it sucks.... try no to.. we are just now getting it back on after 900+ dollars in charges
I dont know if it is still a service verizon offers, but I was able to call CS and they said I had 2 different minute credits i could use at any time. I think one was 150 min, and the other was 50. Once you start the credit it is added to your monthly plan, and you lose what you dont use at months end.
CS said after being a customer for so long you get these credits. Sorry Im not very detailed as this was 2 years ago when i used it.
FYI- I have been a VZ customer for 11 years.
You can upgrade your minutes and go back to 700 at any time.
You can also change your plan online. Done this many times when my wife and I first got married. Got her trained now though lol. J/K honey.
The squeaky wheel may get the grease. But the ***** gets slapped. Quitcherbitchin!

did you ever call Verizon and see about changing plans or having a compromise with the bill? That seems a little crazy...
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
i didnt know about that at the time... and they ended up waving the charges anyway... the reason the bill got that high was since we couldnt pay the overcharge we got behind on out payments and thats what we had to pay to get it back on a few months later

I would suggest against doing this. The first time i did this, regarding the sister as i mentioned in previous post here, i was under the impression it worked online the same way it does when calling CS... turns out thats incorrect, doing a plan change online future dates it for the next billing cycle. This was maybe 6-7 months ago for me. So take the 5 minutes and call CS instead of taking the quick route and doing so within My Verizon on the phone, or online.
Im a VZW fan, i get great reception in my area, and at work, people want to borrow my phone because most other carriers cant even get data in the building.
that being said, some of the highest bills i've personally seen (from idiot friends, and a couple idiot in-laws) has been from VZW. you start going Ala Carte for text, minutes, etc... you are screwed.
You can call into customer care and ask if them if there's any promotions on your line. Sometimes they can give you some bonus minutes and backdate them so you can avoid overages.
I lost my new EVO LTE and while I'm waiting for a replacement, Im trying to hook up an old Palm Pre via sprint.com online. I have the Sprint Family Data EVERYTHING 1500 shared plan with 3 phones and a 25% corporate discount. The online swaping system is saying that I have to change my $110 plan to another one and there is no going back. They have an UNLIMITED minutes for 99$ and a 900 minutes for 89$ and no 1500 plan any longer. Does anyone know if the Unlimited plan for 99$ is the same or better than my 110$ 1500 minute plan? I wonder if the 110$ thats on my bill before the discount includes 99$ + the 10$ monthly fee. And will I lose my corporate discount if I switch? I don't want to go through the hassle again of proving my corporate discount.
Thanks in advance
I can't wait to get my EVO back
I'm quite sure the unlimited plan for $99 is for single user, but I could be wrong
you need to call in and have them activate the phone. ran into that a couple weeks ago.
You have to do it via onlinechat or via phone. The automated process won't accept the plan.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
+1 on the online chat, it's quite easy and painless via chat, pretty quick as well.
The reason it says you need a plan change is because of the LTE access that is tagged to your plan. The online system would do the same thing coming/going to any other device other than another LTE device.
If you call them it'll take 10min to get it squared away. (assuming you haven't called yet)
Sent from my EVO LTE using XDA premium
Ive swapped phones on the exact same plan, and like the others said, call them, it really does take like 10 minutes.
Ask for everything family shared plan. 129.99 for 2 or more phones. Each phone after 2 is 19.99 a month. We have 4 on phones in company using that plan.

As a Vibrant owner, I'm of course using t-mobile. My 2 year contract is up, and I want to pay the lowest amount. I barely use my call minutes, and want unlimited texts and data. What plan should I go with?
The Tmobile site makes this confusing, because I see a $30per month plan with unlimited texts and date, and 100 minutes, but I can't switch to it.
That's because its prepaid.
For now I'm on T-Mobile prepaid $30, 1500 voice/text combo and 30mb data.
Not much data but I always use WiFi.
$49.99.
Classic plan?
500 Minutes, Unlimited (2GB 4G) data & Unlimited texts? :|
The online $30 plan is a special online only and I believe requires a new prepaid phone or acct/number.
I currently use unl talk text and data with first 100mb at 3/4g. I have gone over the 100mb a few times and don't really notice any decrease in speed. There is a $45 unl talk text and data from Walmart straight talk. They use tmo and at&t. You just have to get a sim that works on tmo from them. This will also require unlocking and a new number.

I don't know the prices, but you could try simple mobile if they're in your area. It's the gsm equivalent of metro/cricket. I believe they run off t mobile towers too. You might have to unlock it though.
100 minutes unlimited text and 5 GB 4g plan does exist. It's only available at Walmart! Google it. I have Simple Mobile $40 unlimited everything plan for about a year and it's decent, but network speeds are about 120 kbps...SM also has a $50 unlimited full 4g speed plan

Yeah, I'm doing the switch next month to this but be forewarned, if you use Wi-Fi calling, it still counts against your allotted 100 minutes. I did some research on this a couple days ago and you could add another 1500 minutes (I think) for $10 extra. You can't beat that deal
OP here. I made my switch today, and something funny happened.
I went to the TMobile store, told them my 2-year contract was up, and I want to be on a monthly plan. The store representative asked, "why?" and I told him I'd rather pay $50 per month than $90. He was confused and said I had to call customer service to switch. Whatever.
I got back home, called customer service, and they transferred me to a call center which based on the accent and forced "Americanisms" is probably in India. Just to see if I could get away with it, I told them I wanted the $30 per month plan, which is supposed to only be for new accounts. The rep on the phone said OK, and now I pay $30 per month for 100 voice minutes, and unlimited text and data!
woohoo!
That's a good plan. The first 5gb at 3/4g speed, then they throttle back however I have the $50 unl talk+texts and 100mb data @3/4g. I go over 100mb all the time and rarely notice speed reduction except for downloading large files, but that's what WiFi is for.

I have no problems switching to that plan myself online. I did buy a prepaid sim card from a real tmobile store. They told me I could switch plans myself later on so I bought it, prepaid sim can go to other prepaid plans as well as contract plans (not that I would but that's what they said)
I've been on walmart's Family Mobile almost a year and have no complaints.
I came from att and was able to port my numbers. They were working by the time I got to my car.
Ok so no need to get scared Verizon didn't kick me out of unlimited, here's the deal so my mother finally made the change and got an iPhone and so did my dad, my dad had at&t before, Sooo when they get home my moms like " hey guys so we got the phones and 6 gigs of data but the girl said not to watch videos then my mom said that the girl told her that me and my sis didn't use our unlimited that much...
As soon as she said that I spring into action and check out my Verizon settings and sure enough it was a 6 gb share everything data plan for 4 smartphones... Me and my sister lost our unlimited and I'm like hell no so I take my mom and dad and drive down to Verizon to get my unlimited back and obviously get an actual better deal? So I start discussing with the sales representative that sold my mom the phones and exposing why her "good deal for us" was pure Bs since we already had 1 gig out of the six and it was barely the first day and the 15 dollar charge for going over a gig= no thanks...
Aparrently I used 8.5 gigs the last month and my sis used two gigs...
So we keep on discussing she says she can hook us up with a 16 gig shared data for 350 and says we save 10 dollars, so I broke it down for her there saying if me and my sis revert to unlimited data, my parents get the 2 gb data plan for each of their phones, unl text and calling and then my two little sister unl txt and talk, and the total to that came to 330.
In the end she said that since we had already 5 lines on the family plan, and my dad was adding his line we couldn't keep the old plans since apparently there is a 5 line limit, and the shared data plan ups the limit from 5 lines to 10 is this true? And I think I read somewhere a long time ago that if u have good credit with Verizon that u could add 2 more lines into the old family plan?
Is this a lost battle and should I just settle for the 16 gb shared data? I'll hate having to limit my netflix viewing on the and just overall limiting my phone internet time.

Explain to your pops that it would save you guys money for him to open a separate contract for his phone. Explain to him that by you, and your sister going over the data cap he would have to pay more for the data than the extra contract. I have been looking into holes for awhile to see if we could do something similar. They won't get my unlimited until they pry it from my cold dead fingers...If it happens before that, then i will be moving on to greener pastures. C,mon Dish, and Google, Lte's see that data rumor come true....
This is why i hate big companies. They are so greedy...I have to get rid of my unlimited data and pay more per month for limited data? That is ridiculous. smh

Funny thing is I think it seems they try to push 6 gb data to everyone because while I was discussing an Asian couple arrived and they had 6 smartphones with unl. Data and the sales associate next to me was saying how 6 gigs was enough for them like Wtf? no its not
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Usually they pull the account and check the average that's been used over a long period of time and that's where they get the formula to recommend the shared data plan. They usually will recommend on the low side since its adjustable on the fly and the lower they can get that final monthly bill total the easier it is for them to sell it. The problem with that is the typical person financially responsible for the plan isn't a phone guru and doesn't make a habit of screwing with their phone, monitoring data consumption, etc until a huge bill arrives.
To the OP, it sounds like your family is pretty well established in their decision and things probably won't work out for you to keep your unlimited, considering they already made the decision and yanked your unlimited, which will require an act of congress to Change, and they already have their phones and probably your Dad ported a number I'm guessing. Which means they're comfortable and probably that one trip back to the Verizon store already has them tired of dealing with it.

Don't know if this can help in your family plan situation, but when I had to replace my phone (no warranty/insurance) they offered me an early upgrade and good price on a new Rez or GS3 but losing unlimited by using the upgrade. In order to keep unlimited the guy said I could get a "landline" (I think it's fios - unlimited nationwide calling) phone for $20/month.
So, if there's anyway you guys get unlimited on a couple or all lines for the $20/mo. it might be worth it.

I have 2 possible options for you. 1 is to make one of your sisters disappear. 2 is to take your unlimited data which is/was tied to your phone # and have it put into your own name so it would be a completely separate account. If your not old enough or have credit problems see if one of your sisters can get their own account.
Also there isn't any reason why 1 person can't have 6 individual accounts or 2 accounts with 3 shared lines.

Greetings All!
Okay, after some hesitation I'm planning to upgrade from my much-loved GS3 to the LG G3.
Currently I'm on the Everything Data 450 plan ($69.99) plus the smartphone fee ($10). I never use all my minutes, not even close, since all mobile to mobile and mobile to VOIP calls are included and free. I only talk to one person that I know of who still uses a traditional landline. My corporate discount saves me about $10 a month as it applies to the $69.99 portion of my bill.
Unlimited, My Way, is $50 for unlimited talk and text plus $30 for unlimited data. Just a penny more, but I have verified that my corporate discount would only apply to the $30 portion of the bill so I would be paying several dollars more a month.
Ergo, I'm planning on keeping my old plan. I see no advantage to switching. Am I missing out on something here?
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers, Henri
I had a similar experience a few days ago. Wanted to get my gf the G3 on the easy pay. I was told to use easy pay I would have to switch to the new plans. The salesman says "it costs the same". But me being a mathematician, lol, quickly figured it was going to cost me $275 before taxes, for 4 line and a tablet. Where my bill on traditional account is about $240 with taxes and fees.
I have 5 lines on the ED1500 plan and I get a 23% corp discount. I worked out I'd pay an extra $60 or so a month switching to the Framily plan even if I could get an extra 2 people to get me to the 7 member threshold for maximum discount. Framily is a crock compared to the old plans if you have more than 2 lines.

Made the unfortunate mistake of signing up on framily and ez pay. Hasty decision as I wanted the phone and got talked into the plan under the guise that it was cheaper. Got home. Did the math and it was about 40-50 more per month compared to old plan. Spent 4 hours in best buy returning the phones and reversing the plan only to leave with no devices as my available upgrade was no longer available. Now back on an s3. Upgrade is now activated again, just need to go back and rebuy the phone. Looking forward to getting the g3 back. This s3 just doesn't cut it anymore.
They talked me into the framily plan its me and two others my bill is about the same. I wanted a new phone (g3) but it would cost like 100 a month. They said they could add people to my plan or what ever to lower my bill i waited one week now pay 69 a month for my line with unlimited and insurance. Its awesome just ask them to add people to your plan

If you'll forgive my anonymity, a large, well known bank. Previously, I had the same discount through Nortel Networks but the company went bankrupt and no longer exists.

Yeah, I just don't see the benefit. I have 5 lines. My brother pays me monthly and my sister direct deposits 1/2 the amount of her bill bi-weekly directly to my bank account so I really only pay for my S.O., my daughter and myself which ends up being $197 and change. Upgrading every year would be nice, but I finally have a phone where I don't think I'll need to do that. Also, Framily does away with free navigation. I knoe Google Maps is free, but I have not always had good experiences with it.
Happy to have the g3 back and all parts of original plan back in action!

In my case... Let me let you know. I have the Framily Plan. In the group that the Store Sales Representative create for me are now 10 persons with my 5 lines. (He add to it other 5 unknown ppl) I only pay $25 bucks per line + taxes... I have 2 LG G3, 2 HTC M8 and 1 Nexus 5. My UPS Corporate 25% discount on the account only works when I buy accessories because all the lines just have 1GB of data. I don't see the fact of have unlimited when everyone here all day is connected to Wi-Fi in work or home so..
What I want to say is I HAVE NO EASY PAY installments... This is the trick.
I had an old plan, (all without contract since June) this week I renew all the contracts with new devices and then the Rep changed me to the new Framily plan.
I was supposed to be charged for $15 bucks until I can renovate or something like that on all the lines but the rep says for some reasons (maybe because changes were made at the same time) the system would not charge me. Now I have my phones without payment and are mines. You should try this.

I use UPS and get 23 or 25% can't remember.
Don't forget the biggest difference between the old plans and framily is that you no longer get subsidized devices.
