Data plans question

I am a little unclear how the data plans work with AT&T. I rarely have a need for a data plan, not even once a month, but I would like to have it available for when I do need it as inexpensive as possible. So here are a couple questions I have.
If I sign up for the least expensive plan, and I happen to go over, does it just bump me automatically to the highest usage plan for just that month?
If I use zero dta for a few months, I assume I will still insure the bill anyways. Am I correct in this assumption?

It will charge you for overages. They renew every month, so if you do not need data for a month or more, cancel it right on your iPad. And yes, if you don't cancel, you'll pay the bill every month.

  • End of contract questions (Data plan and upgrade eligibility)

    Hi All,
    I found another thread also titled "End of contract questions" and it was very helpful but I want to make sure I'm not mistaken in any way.  Here's my scenario:
    2 Line Plan
    ME (primary): 2-year contract, unlimited Data (10/15/10 - 10/15/12)
    WIFE: 1-year contract, unlimited data (10/15/10 - 10/15/11)
    I signed her up for a 1-year contract on the advice of the Verizon rep that was helping us.  It ended up netting an additional cost of $70-100 (I forget exactly) but it was worth it in my opinion because I knew that one of us would be able to get a new phone in 1 year as opposed to 2.
    So here are the specific questions:
    1.  Verizon has done away with 1-year contracts.  This means that whenever my wife goes in to renew her contract (and get a new device), she will need to sign a 2 year contract, correct?  All further questions will be posed based on a "yes" answer to this one.
    2.  Assuming she has to sign a 2-year contract, will she still be able to retain her unlimited data plan?
    3.  Assuming she signs up for a 2-year contract, will she still be able to get "loyalty" pricing or whatever they're calling it now (used to be "new every 2")?  Is she even eligible for anything since she's not the primary on the line?
    4.  In the other thread titled "End of contract questions..." it was mentioned that "The loyalty discount expires 6 months after it becomes available -- so 2 months after your contract ends".  Is this correct?
    5.  Currently, if I go to MyVerizon and hover over the "?" next to my number and "Eligible for a discount" it says:  "You are eligible to upgrade with discounted pricing. If you upgrade on or after 6/15/12 you are eligible to receive an additional loyalty discount. "  I intend to wait for my line as it still has a year on the contract however when I do the same for my wife's line it says:  You are eligible to upgrade with discounted pricing."  Does it not mention the Loyalty discount because it's not applicable to a secondary line?  Or perhaps because it's implied since she's technically out of her contract period?
    I'm trying to make heads or tails of this.  At the time, it sounded like a great idea (her on a 1-year, me/primary on a 2-year).  I'm hoping it will work out for us so that every year, one of us will be eligible for a new line.  I'm only concerned with the unlimited data aspect being that she's going to be going from a 1-year to a 2-year and also the actual loyalty/discount aspect.
    Thanks in advance for anyone who helps!!

Yes, either a 2yr contract or no contract and pay full retail price of the phone.
    2.  Assuming she has to sign a 2-year contract, will she still be able to retain her unlimited data plan? Yes, if she upgrades from smartphone to smartphone.
    3.  Assuming she signs up for a 2-year contract, will she still be able to get "loyalty" pricing or whatever they're calling it now (used to be "new every 2")?  Is she even eligible for anything since she's not the primary on the line? Not eligible because she is 1)not the primary line and 2)1yr contracts weren't eligible in the first place.

  • Questions about Assumption of Liability and device to be used for unlimited data plan

    This is my first post on here. I have an opportunity that someone I know is willing to transfer his smartphone plan with unlimited data to me. I have read extensively on here and other sites and gathered some information, and also heard of many complications and questionable losses of unlimited data plans when making various types of changes to devices or services. Some of what I read may be outdated as well if Verizon has made changes in their policies, so I will start with the most obvious question: as of this date, is an AOL possible while keeping the unlimited data plan intact?
    If so, here are some other questions I have:
    -Will I receive a new SIM card by mail or do I need to use my friend's old SIM card?
    -If my ultimate end goal is to use laptop, do I have to connect through a smartphone (and is there any additional charge for that, or would it change the plan), or can I put the SIM card in a mobile hotspot such as the MHS291L and use only the data portion of the plan?
    -After getting the plan, is there any way I can get TWO SIM cards - one for a mobile hotspot, and the other strictly for voice and text? If so, how much extra would that cost?
    -If we went to a Verizon store to do this transfer or AOL, how can we be absolutely certain it goes smoothly, that no one makes any unauthorized plan changes and does not lose the unlimited data? I have unfortunately read some horror stories of it being lost in similar situations, no one seems to be accountable, and it winds up costing someone countless hours of struggle with Verizon to try to get it back (whether they are successful or not I don't know).
    -If at some point the SIM card was lost (such as if I lost the device), can it be replaced without affecting the plan?
    For what it's worth (especially for those working for Verizon), I am not looking for a way to hog up absurd amounts of data but simply to be able to do the basic stuff I need to online and maybe watch a movie once in a while without having really huge bills. Even if I used the internet without giving data consumption a second thought, I doubt I'd go much over 25-30GB most months.
    Thanks to whoever can provide me with information.

    Hi NicandroN_VZW, sorry i did not see your reply in time but thank you just the same. I called the number for the AOL department and they were able to help me with it pretty easily and answer most of my questions
    I do have a couple other questions regarding the unlimited data plan on smartphones. I have seen various comments regarding these things online, and i can make a good guess about what "might work," but i'm really looking to know Verizon's official policy on these things, if one exists. In case any non-verizon employees are able to provide this information as well, if you have references to where i can find it in writing that would be helpful.
    First, i realize there is an optional $30 fee for mobile hotspot use. But does Verizon have any policy about whether this fee must be paid if i connect only via a USB cable (since it would not actually be a "hotspot," and could not connect multiple devices)?
    And my other question is, if i do opt to pay the $30 hotspot fee, is there any policy either for or against using that SIM card in a 4g hotspot such as the MHS291L?
    PS i am asking these things here rather than by PM because, given the wide range of opinions which can be found online and that others have looked into similar things, i am sure other people could also benefit from knowing Verizon's policy regarding these things.

  • Question about voice and data plan for Europe

    I am in New York and my boss is going to France for a week and a half. He told me he will not have access to the internet there. He asked me to find out if it would be possible to get a voice and data plan for the month that he will be there, and if so, could someone show me where I could look at the different plans available?
    If it's not possible to do that for just a month, then could someone tell me where I could find the rates are for voice and data in France?
    Thanks

    Hi kevindrosario,
    I appreciate your interest in our International Services.  France, is a GSM country and will only support a Global capable device. Unfortunately, its not clear if your boss has a Global capable device.  If so, here are the details for the voice and data rates for France.
    If your boss doesn't not have a Global capable device, no worries!  We offer an Occasional Global Traveler program, in which we will loan you a Global device for up to 21 days.  I hope this information is helpful.  Please let me know if you have any any additional questions or concerns.
    Thank you,

    No, if you are using the Music app you are playing them on your iPhone.

  • Two iPhone questions (existing customer and data plan)

    Hello, I have two questions about the iPhone. I am on a family plan with At&t. I don't pay my bill. I want to keep it that way. Will I just be able to take my sim card out of my phone and put it in the iPhone since it's AT&T? Or do I use a new sim card and when activating it choose existing customer?
    My second question is I am wondering if it is possible to use an iPhone without the data plan. I know I will be missing visual voicemail and edge but I don't care. Also, will this make me get a thousand dollar bill if I accidentally press safari and don't have a data plan? Thanks.

    You can't use the SIM from your existing phone. You would use the new SIM and activate as an existing customer.

    You have to get the data plan and for $20 it's worth it, not only is it unlimited data but includes 200 text messages. Without the data plan, you'll pay for every voicemail you access, every text message, any time you check weather/email/youtube/etc. In a nutshell, the data plan covers a lot more than just using Safari to browse the web.

  • This isn't a question but rather a warning to anyone using the new OS for iphone 4.  The imessage uses up your data plan like crazy.  I called Apple about it and they said no it's not doing it.  I called AT

    The new OS is burning through my data plan like crazy and here's why.  Imessage uses your data plan and not your texting plan.  So every time you send a text message to someone with an iphone it uses imessage and it uses your data, not your text plan.  I couldn't figure out why I was burning through so much of my data plan so quickly.  I called Apple and they said, no it's not the data plan doing it.  I called AT&T and they said, yes, the imessage uses data instead of your texting plan if you are texting to another iphone.  Also, the new OS runs your apps all the time, even when you aren't using them.  So if you are not near wifi your apps are running and burning your data plan.  The AT&T guy took me through the steps to turn off the apps.  You can still use them but they won't be running constantly.  Seriously Apple, you should let people know this.  It does say it in the fine print on the website "data rates may apply" under imessage but most people will never read this.  So my data plan started on October 10th and it's already at 175 megabytes and I only have a 200 megabyte plan.  I've never used more than 50 to 75 megabytes in a month.  Apple get it together and be honest with people and tell them.  Quit denying the problem.  Most people have probably not even discovered this yet.  Wait till you get your bill.

    It's not really common knowledge because I've talked to several people today and none of them knew about it.  Also, when I called Apple they said no the new OS is not using data.  Totally wrong answer.  You'd think they'd know about it and at least tell people.  The people who are going to be hit by this are people like me with the 200mb plans.  I just think it's best to spread the word so people can know what's happening.  I still don't know how I went through so much data in such a short period of time.  It's not happening anymore though, not since I fixed everything up last night. 
    If you are using a free wifi connection, there are no data charges with iMessage.  But in an area where you did NOT have a wifi connection, of course it used 3G and of course you got charged for it (or had it count against your plan limits).
    I'll ask again - without a wifi connection, just what did you think was happening?  How did you think your iPhone was able to magically send a message WITHOUT using any data connection?  A little bit of rational thought would have made you realize that there was no way, over a 3G connection (which is a service provided by your cellular service provider, NOT Apple), that you can send or receive ANYTHING without your service provider's plan picking it up.
    Nothing abut iMessage has ever hinted that it can, in any way, bypass your service provider when NOT using a wifi connection.

  • Another question?  Is 2G iPhone data plan lower than 3G iPhone data plan?

    If I take a 2G iPhone into AT&T and get it set up, is the data plan rate for 200 text messages and internet lower than the 3G iPhone data plan rate. I know the 3G in $30 + $5 (200 text messages) = $35. What would it be for the 2G?
    Thanks...
    (I want to give my wife my 2G to replace her flip phone and get me a new 3G)

    The First Generation iPhone is $20 for Unlimited Data and includes 200 SMS text messages, You can add more to the plan but it will be an additional cost. For $40 total you get Unlimited Text and Data usage.

  • Switching from Env Touch to a Droid 2     Questions about data plan.

    I have an Env Touch with Unlimited Texting. My mother has a Droid 2 with Unlimited Texting and Data (the $30 plan).
    I want to switch phones with her, but will I get the Unlimited Data plan with it or will I have to get the new payment plans for data?

    Verizon has a data calculator on this site (just search for it) that can give you some idea of your usage.  You can also visit the services you plan to use and look for information about how much data they consume.  2GB would not be enough with hours of Pandora streaming each month, but if you regularly used WiFi for the more data intensive applications, you could probably stay under the cap easily.
    If you go over your cap, you are billed $10 and get another 1GB of data to use.  You CAN use unlimited data, at a rate of $10/GB over your cap.

  • Question about iphone 4 and data plan..

    I have the 3GS with unlimited data.
    I am getting the iphone 4.
    I will be giving 3GS to wife.
    Will the unlimited data plan only stay for the 3GS?
    Or can it be transferred to the iphone 4?
    Or can I get unlimited plan for both since I'm an existing customer?
    Thanks!!

    You can continue with your unlimited plan on the new phone. Your wife will have to choose one of the new data plans for the 3GS.

  • Phone upgrade, data plans ... I am SO confused.

    The nearer the end of my Verizon contract drew the more research I've done.  I've searched online, on Verizon's website, talked to family, friends and total strangers.  The more I research the more confused I become. Please allow me to think and wonder outloud in what follows.  Perhaps someone here can help?
    Do I want an iphone ... or a Droid ... or the Thunderbolt?  While I have read hundreds of online articles and posts about all of them I remain confused.
    My sister insists I will love the iphone.  At home I spend virtually all my free time on my computer.  I am, I admit, a computer addict.  But all of my computers have been PCs.  I know nothing about - nor do I want to learn - about Apple.  My sister's son is a Mac fan and I am sure he teaches his parents about their iphones.  Will I have a problem learning the iphone?  Do I have to have an itunes account just to activate my iphone?
    On the surface the Droid looks more appealing to me.  But I know nothing about it.  And I've read a lot of posts here pooping the Android.
    Since I live in a 4G area and Verizon seems to be pushing the Thunderbolt, I've taken a look at it.  How does it compare to the iphone or the Droid?  I've read many negative posts on these boards about the 4G network.  (I do take all message board posts with a grain of salt.)  But, I wonder, why would Verizon introduce their 4G network yet offer only ONE phone which works on it?  And, I wonder, will there be an iphone 5 this summer which is 4G? ... should I put off my decision to upgrade until this summer -- or is the introduction of the iphone 5, whenever it may happen, only going to add to my confusion?
    Unlimited data plans: I was told (by some source I cannot recall) that an unlimited data plan is $30/month for the 3G network and $50/month for the 4G.  Both reviewing Verizon's website and speaking on the phone with a Verizon representative I am lead to belive the cost is $30 for either unlimited 3G or 4G.  True?  I would/will pay an increase to my bill of $30/month for unlimited data but not $50.  What is the truth about Verizon's 3G vs 4G network?
    Lastly: maybe I'm to sensetive.  Maybe I expect too much.  I've been a Verizon customer for ten years.  As my 2 year contract neared it's expiration I truly expected Verizon to send me some email or snail-mail which both thanked me for being a customer and offered me an incentive to continue my service with them.  I have received not one word.  I realize I am one small minnow in a vast sea ... but don't we small minnows make up Verizon's vast sea?
    I do hope that at least some of my confusions will be addressed, understood, and answered by you nice folks who monitor these boards.  Please, no techno-babble.  I've read the pcworld and cnet articles.  And I've read many verizon community messages.  If you reply, please do so using simple terms.  I am so easily confused!
    Thanks!

    Thank you, both, for your easy to understand replies.  Please allow me to ask (thinking out loud) a few more questions.
    Against my family's urgings, I've pretty much decided against the iphone.  If I'm going to take the leap from my old, trusty flip phone into this decade's smart phone I want to jump in full-throttle and get a 4G device.  So, first, a few questions about them....
    The two that perk my interest -- and which I've been comparing online -- are the Thunderbolt and the DROID Bionic.  The latter I cannot find on Verizon's website.  Has it not been released yet?  They both seem to compare similarly.  Are there any (notable) differences between the two? 
    Understanding that new technology (4G -- and the devices which go with it) can be problematic, is one better to wait a few months until "bugs" are worked out -- or is there really no reason to wait?  (I realize that before I can post this message "today's" technology is already outdated!)
    Whether rightly or wrongly, I continue to think of a "smart phone" as my Windows based computer: when an upgrade or "fix" is available I download and install a Microsoft update and it's "fixed."  Is the same true with a phone -- that a "fix" is available via a simple software download ... or do some "problems" require a whole new phone?
    I was, mistakenly, under the impression Verizon's unlimited data plan was $30 on the 3G network and $50 on the 4G.  I have been corrected and understand it is $30 on both/either.  But I note other carriers charge up to $80!  Question is, is Verizon apt to raise their price in the near future?  Is there any reason to be in a rush to lock in a $30/month unlimited data plan?
    Being a miser, I continue to look for the best deal.  As I mentioned in my original post, when the expiration of my current Verizon contract expiration date neared I expected to receive some promotional offers/deals.  I have received none.  My sister (pre-ordered) an iphone -- and received a $100 credit off the price of $199.  When I telephoned Verizon the representative stated she had never heard of any discounts on any phones to anyone!
    Another example.... When going to Verizonwireless.com I am offered a price of $250 for the Thunderbolt (with, of course, a 2 year contract).  But when going to another, "outside," company they offer it for $200.  Why?  Specifically, why doesn't Verizon seem to offer the BEST deals/prices to their existing, long-time customers?  I really don't get it.  I have been with Verizon for ten years.  I am going to upgrade to a smartphone (which means my monthly bill will increase by at least $30), and I will probably remain a Verizon customer for life.  So, is it unreasonable to think I might hope for some kind of "deal" that I know others have received?  If not, where do I look for -- and find -- them?
    Lastly, is there an option on Verizon's forums to notify me of replies via email?
    Thanks again, in advance, for your input.
    BTW, how can "iphone," "4G," or "DROID" not be in Verizon's spell checker?!?

  • Follow up quesiton on data plan and face time quesiton

    First I have to apologize for asking a non-apple question, especially after some comments I made, but I just want to make sure of something as I do not trust what I hear from ATT. If I downgrade from the unlimited plan, and when Netflix has streaming to the iphone I realize I'm using more than 2gb/month, I will be able to go back to the unlimited plan AS A CURRENT SUBSCRIBER, even after several months.
    Second, regarding face time, does anyone know if the 3gs has the capability to view a video sent from an iphone 4 user? (I realize there is no software for it, but maybe this is in Apple's future??)

    FaceTime is only iPhone4 to iPhone4, but im sure you can still send a video from an iPhone 4 to any other device including an iPhone 3GS. I am just speculating, so dont quote me on that. and once you give up your unlimited data plan you will NOT be able to go back.... EVER

  • How to handle large library, limited data plan

    I've been using Itunes Match for about six months now, and I'm having problems...
    I live rurally and so I use an AT&T hotspot with a 10 gig/month data plan for my phone, ipad, and desktop mac. My wireless connection speed is pretty good.
    I have about 15000 tracks in my Itunes library, most not purchased through Itunes.
    When I signed up for Match and went through the initial process, it took about 24 hours and used up about six gig, which caused a significant overage in my data plan. Consequently, I just use Match on my Mac and decided not to use it on my other devices because of the data limitations. My motivation to use it currently is as a back up for my music. I connect my phone to my mac manually to transfer some of my music to my phone.
    I figured that the data overuse problem was a one time deal if I didn't use my other devices.
    But recently, when I purchase a song from emusic or Amazon, the icloud processing image pops up after the download purchase is complete. Itunes will then start the process of sending data to Amazon, which was still going at 4 hours yesterday when I manually stopped it as I saw my data plan being used up. It seemed to restart the process of sending periodically and never got to the analyzing or returning data stages.
    Now my recently purchased music shows up with both the Icloud processing symbol and a faded download icloud icon, one for each separate track. I can play the "processing" track, but Itunes won't allow me to add it to a playlist. Further, if I'm online with my hotspot, sometimes the regular Itunes Icon is visible, but at other times the icon with the thunderbold through it. I'm guessing this means it's streaming with the first icon, playing from my harddrive with the second.
    So a couple of questions, and sorry for the length, I'm a first-time support user
    1) Does it make sense to use Match with such a large library, and limited data plan?
    2) "Where" is the music I've purchased - on my computer or in the cloud?
    3) Should it take all day to send data to itunes, when the only updates to my library are songs I've deleted and a handful of new albums I purchased.
    4) Am I using up my data plan when the regular Icloud Icon appears and I'm online? Is there a way to manually play from the hardrive to reduce use of my data plan? I turned off Match once and payed with a half-day sending and receiving session when I turned it back on.
    4) Will I lose music if I unsubscribe from Match?
    Thanks to anybody who has the inclination to respond to any of these questions!

    This datasource sends After images in delta loads which is compatible with loading to a Std DSO only. You cannot load from this datasource directly to a cube.
    You can check with business the number of years they would need history. If they need for 5 years, you could delete data older than that or Archive.
    For GL, there would not be any changes to years that are closed for posting. There may be adjustments carried out for the previous fiscal year. I guess there would not be any changes to years prior to that. So archiving old data should not affect delta.

  • Is there any way to have an ipad wifi 3G but not use the 3G (therefore avoiding the extra data plan costs) and just use the wifi?

    i am looking to buy an ipad 2 or the new ipad (preferably 32gb) but dont want to buy the 3G version as i have unlimited data usage in my mobile phone plan, i know the wifi only ipad is generally cheaper, but i was wondering if there was a way to buy the ipad with 3G capabilities but not use the 3G and avoid the cost of paying the extra unnecessary data plan? (I know this is a really weird question but i have the opportunity to buy a 3G ipad and was curious of the possibility? any help would be greatly appreciated. cheers
