Can I keep my Unlimited Data if I use my husbands upgrade?

The last phone I bought was the iPhone 5s and at that time I was able to use my husbands upgrade and keep my unlimited data...then he used my upgrade...I am wanting to do the same thing. Do I still have that option and will I be able to preorder over the phone at 12:01am to do it?

    That's a good question and the new iPhones are nice hl7272! If you and your husband are on separate accounts, you will be able to activate the new phone on your line, (account), and keep your unlimited data. However, if you're on the same account, you won't be able to do the Alternate Upgrade and keep unlimited data. Even if you're using your husband's upgrade, when the phone is activated on your line, you will need to choose from a current data plan.
Thank you,

  • HT4528 I currently use Verizon and have a Blackberry with an unlimited data plan. Is there a way I can buy an unlocked iphone and keep my unlimited data plan bypassing Verizon's requirement to get a new plan with a 2 year committment?

    Is there a way to purchase a new iPhone and to continue my unlimited data plan without having to sign a new 2 year committment and new plan with Verizon?

    You don't buy an unlocked phone. You buy a Verizon iPhone at full retail. I just did this myself last month. I paid full retail for the phone and activated it on my plan. This allowed me to get a new phone before I was eligible to upgrade and keep my unlimited data. I also got a good deal on trading in my iPhone 5.
    You can buy the phone through Verizon or through Apple. If you buy it through Apple, I'd suggest that you not have them activated but do that yourself by logging into your account on your computer.
    Best of luck.

  • I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Doctor says connected fine.

    I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Connectivity Doctor says connected fine. No probs there. And weirdly, when I want to send an email. I write it, it takes absolutely ages to try to send but as soon as I click disconnect it sends the email. Very odd. I would just love to be able to write all my emails offline and save to drafts/Outbox and then just connect to send and check emails then disconnect again.

        I can see that this issue has been quite extensive, and frustrating, and I am so sorry for all that has happened societygirl! I would like to help you work this issue out. Please follow & send me a Direct Message, so I can get your account specifics and help finally bring this to a resolution.

    2) i have an early upgrade on my line. could i transfer the upgrade to one of the tiered data lines (they both dont got upgrades until 2013) and then get the Galaxy Note 2 and transfer it to my primary line?
    thanks for any help

    Option 2 will cause you to lose your unlimited data plan no matter which line you transfer the upgrade to. Any way you slice it, you would be renewing the contract on your line of service.
    How would he lose unlimited data with option 2? He's upgrading the line with tiered data to the note then transferring it to his line.
    His line has the unlimited data and was eligible for the upgrade.  His wanted transfer HIS line's upgrade to another line.  That would mean HIS line would have the contract extension and loss of the unlimited data plan.

  • 1 Unlimited data 1 basic both eligible for upgrades

    So I am on a family share plan and i have unlimited data on my smart phone.  My mother has a basic phone along with my dad.  My question is what steps can I take to keep my unlimited data plan upgrading to an Iphone 5 at the discount price and also upgrading my mom's phone to another new basic phone.
    Line 1- Basic phone eligible (mom)
    Line 2- smart phone unlimited data eligible for upgrade (Mine)
    Line 3- Basic phone not yet eligible
    I want to keep my unlimited and get an iphone 5 and my mom wants a new basic phone.  Dad (line 3) will just upgrade to another basic phone when he is eligible for an upgrade.

    You will lose your unlimited data plan.  If you ever upgrade your line to get ANY device you are agreeing to the new terms which will take away the unlimited data plan.  It's either you buy your mother a phone outright and use her upgrade for yourself, or buy the iPhone 5 outright.

  • Can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ?

    Hello!
    I have a report where one of its parameters refers to a list of values (LOVs). This list of values is an SQL Query type. When the data source used in the report is defined in the BI Publisher server, I'm able to get the report parameters using the getReportParameters() function in my application. However, if the data source is not defined the function throws an exception, which is understandable.
    I decided to dynamically set the data source so that even if the data source used by the report is not defined in the BI Publisher server, it still will be able to get the LOVs for the parameter. I tried setting the JDBCDataSource of the dynamicDataSource for the ReportRequest object that I passed to the getReportParameters() function. Please see the sample code below:
    reportRequest.dynamicDataSource = new BIP10.BIPDataSource();
    reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource = new BIP10.JDBCDataSource();
    setReportDataSource(reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource, connectstr, jdbc, dc); //function to set the values for JDBCDataSource object
    reportParams = webrs.getReportParameters(reportRequest, uid, pwd); //call the getReportParameters
    I was expecting this to work as this is what I did to dynamically set the data source before calling the runReport function. So, my question is -- can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ? I tried this both in versions 10g and 11g. It does not seem to work on both versions.
    Regards,
    Stephanie

    report_id column of apex_application_page_ir_rpt can help us uniquely identify each saved report.
    We can assign this report_id value to a page item and this page item can be put in the Report ID Item text box of the Advanced section of the Report Attributes page of the IR.
    This should load the saved report identified by report_id and you can get rid of javascript

  • Can i use my husbands upgrade for the iphone 6 promotion

    My line is technically not eligible for upgrade, but my husbands line is (we are on a family plan with my mom). Last time I upgraded, they let me use my husbands upgrade since his was available. Can I do this for the iphone 6 promotion or will they not allow it?

    Can I transfer upgrade eligibility from one line to another?
    If you have multiple devices on your account and one is eligible for an upgrade, you can transfer upgrade eligibility to another line on your account whenupgrading your device in My Verizon. When you transfer eligibility from one line to another, the original line is no longer eligible for the upgrade discount.
    To transfer upgrade eligibility from one line to another line on your account:Go to the Upgrade Device page in My Verizon.
    Click Transfer Upgrade.
    Note: If the Transfer Upgrade link isn’t appearing, you may not be eligible to transfer an upgrade at this time
    Select the mobile number you want to upgrade. This will transfer upgrade eligibility to that line.
    Select the device you want to upgrade to and click Next.
    Follow the onscreen prompts to complete the remaining steps to upgrade your device.
    You’ve successfully transferred your upgrade eligibility to another line.

  • I purchased a Maxx at FULL retail price (out of contract) to keep my unlimited data. An unauthorized/illegal change was made to the plan and all VZW could do was offer me $20 in credit.

    As the title says:
    I purchased a Droid Maxx at full retail price (approximately $540) to keep my grandfathered unlimited data. An unauthorized/illegal change was made by my younger sister (who is not an account manager and stole the information from my mom) to the plan and I was not notified within the 14-day closing period to revert the changes. For the record, both my mom and I are account managers, my younger sister is not.
    I went in to my account (and changed all the information) and found out that when changes are made to the account online, you have to send an authorization text to one of the phones--however, you can send this authorization to ANY of the phones on the plan, so my sister sent it to hers (instead of an account managers).
    So, the only reason I found out about this change to my plan was via a text message telling me I was "approaching max data," which of course should not happen with unlimited data. My younger sister did not tell anyone she made the changes.
    When I found out about two (nearly three) weeks ago, I called Verizon to open a ticket about it. They did, said they would call/text me back a few days later--they didn't. One week later I made another phone call to see what the status on that ticket was--the rep said that the other rep was supposed to call me, but didn't, and so he pushed the ticket again. Lo and behold, another week later, still no response from VZW about the ticket. So I called again only to find out that the request to revert the data plan back to unlimited had been denied.
    I spoke with that representative for nearly 40 minutes and all she could offer was some unwanted advice about what to do about my sister's behavior or that "I'm so sorry that someone would do that." I told her I wasn't looking for consolation, but for a compromise on either getting my unlimited data back, or refunding the difference between contract and full-retail price of the phone. I threatened to leave VZW because of this and all she could offer was a measly $20 credit.
    I have filed a BBB complaint against Verizon Wireless for this issue as an illegal change that goes unnoticed past the 14-day closing period should be addressed in a more urgent manner.
    I have also reached out on Reddit and Twitter, because obviously calling the VZW support does nothing to alleviate my situation. I am very dissatisfied with how VZW is handling an illegal and fraudulent change on my account that has shafted me out of 500 dollars.

    You seam to be focusing your anger at Verizon and not your sister. Verizon followed the rules and required IDs and passwords to access the wireless account. You and/or your mother are supposed to safeguard that information.  Your sister has committed the felony by stealing your mothers identity for personal gain.
    You say "I am very dissatisfied with how VZW is handling an illegal and fraudulent change on my account that has shafted me out of 500 dollars.'  My question to you is who made the illegal and fraudulent change to your account?  Verizon or your sister? Keeping in mind your sister had all the correct IDs and passwords,
    I'm sure if you went to Verizon and wanted to make some changes to your account, and you had the correct IDs and passwords, you would be upset and angry if they put you through the 3rd degree because they thought you were committing fraud.
    Good luck to you, (seriously) whatever happens,

  • Penalizing long term customers for keeping their unlimited data plan is unwise an business

    Dear Verizon President and Employees,
    I have spoken to three Verizon employees via the phone today who have failed to be able to tell me why I should stay with Verizon. You see I have a very small portion of my plan that is unlimited data, I have it because I have been a long time customer. I don't use a lot of data but when I got I thought I would never use any data. Times change people change in fact my family has changed and I was thinking of adding another line to my account for my son. Maybe at xmas I will buy a tablet but I need to update my phone. I found out that if I tried to upgrade my phone I would lose my unlimited data package plan. Now I understand why Verizon no longer carries an unlimited plan. I actually have worked for a competeing wireless company and they don't offer the plan either. So yes I can understand telling people its a grandfathered plan and we honor our loyal longtime customers who have that plan by continuing to carry the plan as long as they don't remove it from their accounts. I Can understand why if you switch to the convenience of the mobile share plan you couldn't switch back. What I can't understand is why you are forcing your long time customers to question why they should be with you. I don't use huge amounts of data right now but I have been happy not having to worry about my plan and after all I have spent a lot of money with Verizon wireless over the years. In fact lets do a little math I have spent on average on my single line at least $120 a month for the last six years (I am being conservative its probably more like 150 but I think we should be conservative) that's 8640 to Verizon for the last six years... I am looking at wanting another line (Probably will add 50 a month to my phone bill) I am thinking about adding a tablet at xmas. I understand I have to get a separate data plan for the tablet or I would lose my unlimited data another 40 so saying I wanted my two year contract that's almost 200 a month for the next two years in fact lets say its an even two hundred  that's $4800 you would get from me for the next four years. Am I such an unimportant customer you would sacrifice that for $300-400 on a phone? It doesn't make good business sense. If I am going lose my plan when I am already shelling out that much money I should look at other carriers who don't penalize their long time customers by saying you can only keep your plan buy paying full price on a phone. You see its dumb your taking away your own juicy carrot. As long as I had something with you I knew I couldn't get with anyone else I wasn't going to look at another service provider. I can get a limited data package plan anywhere and there are very competitive offers. Customers should be able to choose when they want to drop their plans... not be penalized into doing so. Why do you offer a discounted price on a phone? Because the customer is signing a contract they will stay with you for two years. You are guaranteed to get those fees. You have already told me it doesn't have to to do with the phone... if I can bring my own phone to the plan. It has to do with trying to bribe people if you want this phone at this price you have to give up your unlimited data... sadly its a poor choice... I can get that phone at a nice price and give up my unlimited data by going somewhere else... I will pay the same price and you... you will lose  not only my money but loyalty... all because I wanted 400 off a phone like your other people get when they sign a 2 year contract and to stay my current plan. Yes I know that you said 95% of people use 2 GB or less that may be true but I want the freedom to be able to choose I am an individual not 95%. And I should be important as a customer. I have been a customer for a long time. My current contract ends in October, So again I ask why should I stay loyal to a company who doesn't stay loyal to its long time customers.
    Sincerely
    Candice M.

    It comes down to money and profits.
    The juicy carrot of unlimited is still there. But you buy the device at full price. You pay no upgrade fees and you have no contract. The data costs are not carrots but gardens of green. (money) Those same 95% are now seeing huge overage fees and that is more green to the company and the stock holders.
    Sprint & T-Mobile offer unlimited data but their buildouts of 4G LTE are way behind Verizon & AT&T so you may not want their service. AT&T has no unlimited and price and coverage wise are almost identical so no savings there.
    Loyality is an over used word. You are a customer like everyone else, no distinction is made because you paid $5,000 or $2,000 it just depends on what service is right for you.
    I never take subsidize devices, I don't like contracts and personally I use Verizon for the coverage and I think I have called them less than five times over 30+ years for any service requests or anything.
    America is profit generated and you have to remember that. When the customers leave in droves due to lower costs at another provider that is when Verizon will take a long look at trying to get customers back. But that will be many years in the future
    Good Luck

  • Will I be able to keep my unlimited data?

    I have been on a family plan for over 10 years and we have unlimited data. Last year I decided to upgrade to the galaxy note 2 even though the rep said I was going to lose my data and be downgraded to 2GB per month. They said that even though my data changed I would still be able to be part of the family plan. After I had gotten the device I discovered that i still have unlimited data and I have confermed this with verizon. My question now is if I want to upgrade to the galaxy note 3 is there any way that I could keep my unlimited? I feel that after having unlimited on the Note 2 that it is definately worth it to pay the full retail price for the device and keep the unlimited then to lose it. I would be willing to stay on or get of the family plan as long as I could get the Note 3 with unlimited data.
    Thanks,
    Alex

    The previous answer did actually miss another option with two variations--many people have had luck to this point in one of two additional ways:
    *Add a line to the family plan as a smartphone (2GB/1GB or less plan for data) and pair it with the phone you want (Note 3 in this case)... activate, transfer to the existing line, and remove the data plan on the dummy line.  You can populate that line with a dumbphone and have the standard 9.99/mo features that would leverage your family plan (IE--shared minutes, texts, whatever) or you can leave it dead.  The overhead (beyond the subsidized cost of the phone) amounts to the $239.76 over two years ($9.99 * 24 mo).  Altogether, it's still cheaper than outright purchases by 100.00 to 200.00.
    *If you have existing dumbphone (featurephone, non-smartphone) lines that are up for renewal, and are willing to keep them on the same phone they have today, you can do the same as above.
    What you can't do is renew your own line--no matter how it's done, you'll lose the feature.

  • Can I transfer an unlimited data plan from one line to another?

    When I upgraded my phone I lost my unlimited data.  My wife and I are on a family plan.  She still has unlimited data on her line, but rarely uses any data.  Is it possible to shift her unlimited data to my line and my 2gb plan to her line?

    No. You can't transfer features between the lines on the account.
    You could switch which number you use. You start using her phone number and she uses yours.

  • How to buy an iPhone 5S 32GB for full price to keep my unlimited data plan?

    I have an iPhone 4 with the unlimited data plan, as I got my 2-year contract within the first 6 weeks in 2010 when Verizon offered that. I wish to pay the $749 for an iPhone 5S 32GB model, but I am unsure how to do that. I want to do that so my plan stays the same - is that possible? If so, can I do it online, or do I have to go to a Verizon Store or Apple Store?
    Thanks for any info y'all might be able to provide!

    I'd be upgrading from a flip phone to an iPhone...  I was told that I could share my wife's unlimited data and texts:
