Sitting here at the petro in new paris ohio waiting for my next load and i decide to go inside here and give the Verizon girl a fair shake at selling me on a verizon plan. Unlimited everything, even data, each phone has a hotspot of 3gb, subsidized phones. Since they don't have unlimited data, I'd have to get a shared family data plan. I alone use about 40gb in a billing cycle, my wife, and our daughters use about 5gb a month each. She quoted me about $400 a month for everything above.
Sorry verizon, but you can take a hike. I'm not giving up everything above to increase my bill by almost $100
I'll stick with my sprint plan

I agree. I switched to Verizon for a short time and the cost went way up. I admit they had slightly better service in some areas, but it wasn't worth it to me. When I went back to Sprint, well, lets just say Verizon wasn't very accommodating...at all...in any way. Anyway, been back with Sprint for awhile now and its getting the job done. I hit more dead spaces, but that's not so bad. I also went to renting my phone rather than buy it. I didn't see the reason to actually buy a phone anymore since it will never be used once you upgrade.

Wow, pricey. I'm glad I still have my unlimited data plan, just have to pay for phones.

But i can say this, i stream movies out the ###, and run my xbox one off my hotspot and play shooters if that tells you anything.
If you run Kansas easy texas on north into Minnesota/Wisconsin you'll have no issues. Up in rural Montana/wyoming is where i have 90% of my problemsrocknroll81, rabbiporkchop and supersnackbar Thank this. -
Thats the biggest hang up with Verizon. Their data rates are ridiculous. Our bill with 3 phones and 30gb plan is $270 month. $400,.. wow. That is steep.
I pay extra for Verizon because I need the larger service area they cover. I can not be with out a signal.
We knocked our bill down to $220 a month by dropping down to 20gb per month. I dont need the extra data now that I got satellite TV set up in my truck. Even with the satellite TV bill its still less than I paid for Verizon with the 30gb plan.
I cant bare to leave Verizon's service though. I dont like the price,.. but compared to what I went through on other carriers,.. my business depends on their service. Plus its a write off for me anyway.

I was going to give my family my verizon note2 to use for a gps tablet. But when i got the s6 i shut the note2 down. 2 days later i turned it on so i could download my apps. NO DICE. Little did i know that when i shut if off. It would be for good. The sprint note2 still chugs along.
I'll use my old phones. They still have use and it beats buying a new toy for my needs.
You pay pretty much the same price between renting and buying so why not buy. Then you get to keep it. -
You use way to much data to make VZW worthwhile.
The data is expensive.
Without my old unlimited data plan not sure what I would do.
Sprint and TMo are worthless.rabbiporkchop Thanks this. -
