Have family plan with 250 data which I almost use each month.  Going on vacation and will be on the road for two weeks.  Should I up my data for a month then change back.  Is it worth it or should I just run over and pay the extra 15 per gig?

Hello mlazaretti. Vacation time is awesome. (Especially a road trip!) Since you will be going out for two weeks, you never know if having extra data may come in handy. I highly recommend switching to the next tier up so this way you have more data. This way it is only $10.00 more versus $15.00, and you dont have to worry about overages. Then change back at the start of the next billing cycle.
If you need help making this change let us know! Have a safe trip!

    Hi, I have iphone 4s and since yesterday my personal hotspot will not work. It's always worked fine in the past and I have a plan with three uk which includes tethering. I've tried everything I can think of including resetting network settings, resetting the phone as a new phone but nothing works. When connected to the pc it shows on the iphone screen '1 connection' but the pc says 'no internet connection' I've spoken to three who say it must be a phone fault. Any help appreciated. :-)

    If you have restored as new that pretty well covers software issues
    Looks like a trip to an Apple Store and a likely Out of Warranty exchange unit  £159 over the counter
    May e consider an upgrade with the money ?

  • Remove data plan from family plan with basic phones?

    Is there a way to remove a data plan from a family plan with just basic phones on it? We used to have a $20/month basic plan until we had to get a data plan for our son's iPhone. He no longer has the iPhone with Verizon and has removed his line from the plan because he has an Android with Sprint. We also were required to use the data plan because we at one point had one of those "Hotspot" devices as a temporary solution for at-home Internet until our DSL line could be fixed. As of now we no longer have the hotspot device or the iPhone, but we still have a data plan that is patently useless because all we have are basic phones. On the My Verizon Wireless website, it says that "your text and data are now bundled with your plan" or something to that effect. I don't want to be paying extra for a useless data plan that we don't need or want because we are not in the market for fancy smart phones or tablets any time soon.
    Is there any way to unbundle or detach the data plan so that we no longer have one and just have the unlimited text and calling plan without data? Our daughter is fine with her EnV Touch from 2005 and us old folks are perfectly content with the basic flip phones. Is the EnV a data phone too, in which case we should get rid of the EnV Touch in favor of an even more "basic" basic phone? She's not much of a technology buff like her brother is and has even suggested getting rid of the "fancier" phone that she has for a basic flip phone. Are we stuck with the data plan unless we break everyone off from the family plan (it's just me, my husband, my daughter, and my sister for right now) and move everyone to pay-as-you-go or no-contract? Wouldn't that end up costing more in the long run? How can we get rid of this annoying and expensive data plan that nobody on our network even uses and is causing a headache of expense?

    As I understand the plans now (and this could be wrong, they change so often I get confused!!) to have the "pay as you go" data, on the More Everything, you have 700 shared minutes.  To bump up to unlimited minutes, there is an attached data plan of 500 MB, and the total cost for 4 basic phones, unlimited minutes and text, 500 MB data, is $100/mo  ($20 for each basic phone line access, and $20 for the data).  The 700 shared minutes and pay as you go data is $85.
    You can change your plan at any time.

  • Change Apple ID country,then change back, all the data of apps store is gone

    Use iPhone 5s change Apple ID country,then change back, all the data of apps store is gone,the apps I uninstall but buy before if I want to buy before,I need to buy again!Is there any way that I can fix it? Thank you！

    Apple ID is only valid for purchases in the Swiss iTunes Store.
    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • Overage Fees - Upgrade Plan and then change back for only $20 - and no change to contract?

    I am on the Nationwide 700 minute family plan with two lines and finally on a month to month contract.  Just saw on my account that I am over my allowance by 67 minutes ($30.15) and I still have five days until my billing cycle ends.  
    I called VzWireless and the lady on the phone said that there is a way to minimize the overage expense this one time.  According to her, if I "upgrade" my voice plan to the 1400 minute plan before the 21st of the month I will end up not having to pay any overage fees on the peak hours (at least $30 as of writing this with five days to go) and would only have to pay the difference in plans which works out to be an extra $20.  She also said she could "future date" an order to move my plan back to my normal 700 minutes after the bill is issued on the 21st so that I would not have to maintain the more expensive plan.
    Frankly, this sounds too good to be true -  I mean why wouldn't every Tom, Dick, and Harry that goes over on their minutes do this then?  Maybe I am the only person who has not figured this out?  The whole reason I am over on minutes this month is because I got caught in a Directv/U-Verse teaser scam and had to call each company's customer support lines and ended up on hold for hours!  Needless to say I am skeptical...
    Is there any merit to this?  Is it true that I can change my plan without renewing to another two year contract?  Are there hidden fees? Can I trust Verizon?  

    Yes, this is true.
    You can change your plan to the 1400 minute plan prior to the end of your billing cycle. Just make sure that this change is "backdated" to the beginning of the billing cycle you are currently in, so that you have those 1400 minutes available to you for this entire cycle. You will then not go over your allowance.
    After your current billing cycle ends, you can change your minute plan back to the 700 min plan.
    I don't know if I would want the CS rep to do both changes at the same time, as this leads to more likely of a mixup which may impact you in a negative way. Might be better to do one at a time.
    Edit: This practice has been around for awhile. Unlike you, several people who have this service pointed out just like to complain that Verizon should just do this without being asked so that they would never incur overages. Those same people would then just complain that their bill increased without them giving permission to increase their minute allowance.

    Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Help! Trying to start a family plan with 3 lines and 2 iphones

    Help!
    I am a new customer trying to start a family plan with 3 lines.  I only want 2 iphones.  However, when I get into the "select phones" screen, it dosen't allow me to choose an iphone. 
    When I click on the iphone it takes me to a completely different part of the website where it only allows me to buy individual plans for each iphone.
    Help!  Thanks!

    I am having the same problem but only want 2 lines and 1 iPhone.  But for you I think you can order the 2 iPhones and checkout and then just add another line.  I am not sure but what I got from other people is that would work.

  • How to upgrade a family plan with 2 new droid x phones and iphones on same plan?

    I am having trouble figuring out a way to renew my family plan with droids X and iphones on the same contract.  I can do it at a Verizon store but the they charge 150 per droid x phone . There are on-line places that let me upgrade to a droid X for free but they do not sell apple iphones.  Any ideas? I need 4 phone two droid X and 2  iphones.  I know the iphone is 200 everywhere.

  • Family plan with iPhone 4

    Is it possible to have a family plan with one iPhone and 3 other regular phones? Would it be the same price as a family plan of 4?

    For existing subscribers, AT&T charges an $18 activation fee for the iPhone.
    After using an original iPhone for a year purchasing a 3G, I was charged an $18 activation fee to activate the 3G. AT&T waived the activation fee for me when activating the iPhone 4.

  • ITunes Match now stalls on step 1.  I have a PC with Windows Vista.  I've use Match for a long time

    iTunes Match now stalls on step 1.  I have a PC with Windows Vista.  I've used iTunes Match for a long time & it has worked well until last week.  Most of my songs now have a dotted outlined cloud beside them & I can't download to my phone.  6 new albums can't be seen at all.  I've turned off Match (with shift key down) & turned it back on - restricted my upload speed to 75% of max - I even uninstalled iTunes & re-installed it.  Any suggestions?

    iTunes Match is stalled in the same place again today.  Step 1 seems to have completed as the blue progress bar is complete.  The message says "Delivering your iTunes Match results..."  When I went to bed last night, this is where iTunes was stuck.  But this morning, Match had stopped trying to "deliver."  It obviously did not finish because 6 new albums do not show up on my iPhone 5 - all of the 3 steps on the Match page were grayed out this morning & the "Start" button was available.
    This is what I did yesterday - I looked at My Music and clicked "Songs."  I then added the "iCloud" column and sorted by that field.  I found about 100 files that had a problem of some sort (cloud with exclamation point inside).  Each of them had lost track of where the music file was - even though the music files were exactly where they should have been.  I re-linked (one at a time) all of the music files to the song titles.  In the cloud field one song was described as "ineligible for iTunes Match."  It had a could with a line drawn through it.   I didn't know what that meant, so I deleted the song.
    I then turned off iTunes Match holding the shift key down & iTunes began collecting information from my library.  This took several hours but it did seem to complete because it changed to the "delivering results" message.  However, this morning I noticed that all of the files I re-linked yesterday still had the "error cloud" symbol today - a cloud with an exclamation mark inside.  Yesterday these songs wouldn't play until I re-linked the files.  Today they will play as expected, but they still have the "error cloud.'  To add to my confusion albums marked with the "error file" are still able to be downloaded to my phone, but the songs with the "error cloud" will not play smoothly on my PC.  They stutter regularly throughout playback.  However, if I download one of those songs or albums to my phone, it plays perfectly.
    I hope this helps someone to explain what my problem is & the appropriate solution.  I have a little more than 12,000 songs in my library in case that makes a difference.  Should I just delete the files with he "error cloud"?  All of the songs appear to be still in the cloud because they are available for download to my phone.

  • I have recently updated m iPhone 4 which was not used since months. It has to be updated from5.1.4 to iOS 7.0.4 and it has taken more than 15 hours to get started. Plz help me. It took about 5 to 6 hrs to prepare for updating.

    I am having this problem.  At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2.  I am not sure why this is happening. 
    My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
    The problem mainly occurs with apps.  I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them.  The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
    Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage.  It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup.  With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up.  The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
    My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete.  This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
    I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.
