Sorry. The Bennnnn part made me laugh. Not funny that they're doing away with unlimited already. I'm glad I locked in!

Read the thread. It's not true. There is currently no schedule to move to tiering. If you don't believe me, call VZW.

I've always had a good experience with them and they comp'ed my data package yesterday, so I can't complain.

After all the TB rumors I'm not going to believe anybody until I see the press release from VZW

Aw, why's this have to happen two weeks before I'm eligible for upgrade? I was planning on getting a Thunderbolt... I don't care if my data is capped (hell, I'd probably be fine with a 2-3GB cap), but I can't afford to pay $50 a month. $30 is kinda stretching it for me, but it's manageable.

Agree, I'd like to know what the source was as well. It makes no sense to go with the tiered plans until the roll out LTE to more locations. That isn't happening until at least this summer.
I think I'm going to call shenanigans on that (please no pistol whipping...)

So, whether true or not, are plans grandfathered at Verizon or does Verizon have a 'out' which allows them to change terms whenever they want?
Just bought mine today, so inquiring minds want to know.
You will grandfathered in if you buy it before they go to the tiered pricing.

Mobile Broadband pricing. Doubt they'd change it for phones now, with only ONE phone? Wouldn't make sense. Maybe if they launch a number at the same time and then release the pricing. But I doubt it'd be Thursday.
And $50 for 5gb is because it's mobile broadband. What's another service with 4g LTE speeds and the ability to use it on the go.

I seriously hate the talk about people not being grandfathered in. ATT stil grandfather people in, everyone who had unlimited got to keep their unlimited plan with the atrix 4g. I really dont know why people would be kicked out of unlimited 4g when att still does it, I dont think verizon is worse then ATT because ATT is the first one to cap everything. Now they are even capping uverse cable.
I have known people holding on to their 5 year old verizon plans. My dad used to have the same plan for 6 years he had verizon and never had to pay extra for anything he got to keep his plan as it was. Yes they can screw you over if they wanted to, but I don't see a reason why they would.

I've mentioned this here often, but my father had an unlimited data plan on his USB aircard and when his aircard went bad, they wouldn't renew his contract. They claimed his usage was low enough to be ok at 5 GB, but if that's the case why not just let him keep his contract and get a new aircard for him?

They wouldn't just randomly announce it and enforce on the same day they would give everyone enough notice this is false...anyone can post anything so dont believe unless its from the horses mouth young jedi

With the appreciation that the unlimited is only as good as the contract term (one or two years). After that, they can update the plan to their new policy. Me thinks there might be a few people wishing they had done a two year contract.
