MiFi Data Plan bill

I just purchased a Verizon WiFi device on 7/27/11  for $108.30 and signed up for a 5G plan that I was told would be $50/mo.
So, I was surprised to get a bill yesterday for $101.82 which included $64.52 for monthly service (which I assume is the $50/mo plus taxes) and $37.13 for other charges with a vague description. 
Can anyone explain this to me?  I will only be using this device a few times a month and there is no way that it's worth $100/mo to me so I want to get on top of this right away.  Thanks for the help-

Verizon, like most other utilities, bills one month in advance.  This means that your first bill will include a pro-rated charge for the portion of your current billing cycle the device was active, a full charge for the following month, taxes and fees for those charges, as well as any activation fees you may have been charged.
Next month, your bill should be just $50 + taxes/fees.

  • Unlimited MiFi Data Plan not "compatible" with 4G MiFi

    I currently have a family plan that includes 2 Droid X’s, 2 non data cell phones and a 3g MiFi Card. 
    I pay $30 for each Droid data plans and $53 for my unlimited data MiFi plan.  I recently decided to try and cut
    my Verizon plan payments down to a reasonable amount.  I decided to give up one of the Droid X phones that I was
    using and switch back to a non-data cell phone. I can't see why I should pay for a $30 Droid data plan and $50 for MiFi.
    I wanted to upgrade to 4G MiFi and use it with my IPod Touch and laptop. To save $30, but when I went to
    upgrade the MiFi, I was told my unlimited data plan would not work with the 4G MiFi plan and if I wanted to upgrade,
    I would have to change to the 5G or 10G plan.
    I have had the unlimited data plan since 2006.  I started out with the V640 Express card then in 2008 upgraded to
    the Verizon USB760 EVDO Rev A modem and in 2010 the MiFi 2200. Nothing has ever been said about my unlimited
    plan until this upgrade.
    The nice Verizon rep told me that the unlimited data plan is not “compatible” with the 4G data plan. 
    Is that their way of saying “we are really trying to force you out of your grandfathered unlimited data plan”?
    I have been so happy with Verizon all these years. But, if the only way I can have unlimited data with Verizon is
    to stay with 3G, should I maybe start looking into the Sprint unlimited data plan?

    I'm having the same problems. Sounds like they want more money to me.  I started out with the usb thing several years ago.
    Data is data.  They should have to accept our plans. 

  • Change Mifi Data Plan

    After moving to a rural area in Iowa, I purchased a Verizon mifi in August 2010. The store employees, as well as the manager I confirmed this with, said the 3g mifi I was purchasing will be compatible with the soon to be offered 4g service. This turned out to be false information and I am now stuck in my 2 year contract. Now I am trying to change my plan and unable because "I need to upgrade my device" in order to use any other plan. Therefore I am stuck. I need to change my plan. Will someone please let me know how?

    As a VZW customer, you can change your calling plan at any time (even if you're changing from a Mifi device to basic or smartphone). What plan did you want to change to?

  • Edge and Data Plan charge changes

              I'm on an existing month-to-month coming off a 2 year agreement with two lines and 10GB data per month at $80. On Feb 4 my daughter (2nd line) went to the Verizon store and moved her line to Edge Plan and the rep set the plan for the 10GB $80/mth for the duration of the agreement (at least that's the way it looks to me from the contract). Feb 4th was the same day for the expiration of the 10GB plan at $80/mth and it's now $100/mth. I've got the first month's bill and see the $80/mth billing and the name is still "MORE EVERY UNL Tlk TXT 10GB".
    I am planning on getting a new phone on the primary line (probably the Samsung Galaxy S6) and was looking at the Edge plan vs buying outright the phone.
    My question is if the Primary line is setup for Edge (new GS6) will this cause the data plan to reprice at the current rate of $100/mth or will the contract maintain the $80/mth pricing? If it does reprice - then buying outright is a better deal to keep the 10GB plan, at least that's how it looks to me.
    Anyone know?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    " - unless you choose to change your plan."    
    I understand the plans can continue when not changed.
    The question is when changing an out-of-contract line (i.e. month-to-month)  to an Edge line - does that constitue a "contract change" that would effect the data plan billing aspect of the bill?
    Thus,
    a) can I Edge a new phone and keep the 10GB data plan at $80 or
    b) must I bring my own phone (i.e. full price buyout) and keep the 10GB data plan at $80.
    Thanks

  • Macbook using up data plan

    Ever since getting a Macbook Pro, I have been using up over 13GB of my Verizon MIFI data plan.  I was at 6 or 7 GB before with my PC.  What gives?

    There's no easy way to monitor bandwidth usage per process using built-in tools. The third-party utilities Rubbernet and Little Snitch are supposed to do it, though I can't vouch for either. Both were available as free trials, the last time I checked. I suggest you uninstall whichever you use when the question has been answered.

  • My bill, my data plan

    I currently have 3 phones on my account, 2 of which are smartphones. One has unlimited data (yay) and the other has a 2 Gb cap. The issue is this: the phone with unlimited data belongs to my wife. She usually connects to our WiFi and uses a smidgeon of that unlimited data. I, on the the other hand, spend most of my time at work and am limited by the 2Gb cap. I called Verizon to ask them to just port her number over to mine and mine to hers so that I can take advantage of the unlimited data that I am already paying for (I was told that unlimited data is associated with the number). I'm not asking for anything more or anything less. I just want to make more efficient use of my data plan. My wife has YET to reach the 2Gb in billing cycle, while I, in just 1 day, did so and pretty much had to not use data for the rest of the month. I was told that it is IMPOSSIBLE to change it over. IMPOSSIBLE? No. It's not impossible. They have the computers, they have the access, not me. How difficult is it to edit the database at a users request for something they are already paying for? Perhaps it is an oversimplification but it's a computer people. Stuff can be changed and adjusted. Like I said in the title, it's my bill, my data plan. I'm not trying to get unlimited data for both phones or bring Verizon to it's knees. I just want an appeal to reason and a SIMPLE customer request to make the most of a great network. I find it difficult to believe that there isn't one person who can help me. Is the information store with account information locked down? Did Skynet come online and not allow anyone to make changes? If so, tell me now because if that's the case, then I've got bigger problems than worrying about data plans and more to worry about in the form of Terminators and self-aware machines.
    Seriously guys. There's SOMEONE who can do it. I'm not asking for the impossible. I just want to make better use of the unlimited data that I'm already paying for anyway. What do I need to do to make this happen?

    demmo86rt, you have given me a more rational and believable explanation than any Verizon rep so far without patronizing me or pretending I'm some idiot. It makes sense if it does indeed matter between 3G and 4G phones. My wife is on an iPhone 4 (3G) and I'm on an HTC Rezound (4G). Still though, I imagine that since it's a billing thing, they could just move it over, OR, I could go the route of callling Big Red and say, "I would like to change the number on (mywifes-phone) to (myphone-number," and technically, I'm not changing the contract. I'm changing the number. Just seems that no one wants to do that. And I don't see how it's imossible to change numbers on phones that are already on the same network. But like I said, your post has been more informative than what any tier 1 rep or supervisor has given me thus far. I'm just disappointed that I can't make better use of unlimited data when my wife never will.

  • How  to Generate the Dates of Billing Plan Contract

    Dear experts,
    Need your advice on this.
    I have a requirement to create a program to update the Billing Plan of contract. It will run in background and update the end date (billing plan), then generate the dates ( Settlement Date for Deadline, Billing date for billing index and printout, etc ..).
    I have managed to change to end date using 'BILLING_SCHEDULE_READ' and 'BILLING_SCHEDULE_SAVE', but I couldn't generate the dates. I've searched sdn and still, no luck. I've tried 'SD_SALES_BILLINGPLAN_CHANGE' with no result. I've also found 'RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_UPDATE', but I dunno how to fill-in all the parameters.
    Please help .. I have run out of ideas ...
    Thx..

  • Data plan used if MiFi connected but not actively being used?

    If computer is on overnight but not in use, meaning MiFi connected, with that use up my data plan? Or does it use up with "active" use only? I'm sharing internet with other people so I'm not sure my data plan is being used on purpose or just getting eaten up while we are all asleep? I'm already maxed with 3 weeks to go!!!

    As long as you have devices connected to the MiFi there is always a risk that those devices will consume data behind the scenes without your knowledge.  This is how network connected devices work, they are constantly "in use" while connected.  Computers, smart phones and any kind of internet connected devices are constantly backing up content, looking for updates and talking to other network devices.  It has nothing to do with your active participation and all internet communication is held against you on your data plan.
    The only way to completely stop data usage is to turn off your MiFi when it is not needed.  This is a common safe practice that you should start using when on a metered data plan.  MiFis are not intended to be left on 24x7 anyways, frequent reboots will help ensure the device stays in proper working order and increase the longevity of its life.
    Verizon does provide everyone with a data log.  The data log will provide you with time stamps and the amounts that are consumed at those times.  It should be easy to see when your biggest spikes of consumption are.  Isolate what devices are online during those times and what may have been going on and you can start to build a picture of where the problem lies.
    To truly see the network traffic in terms of specific applications, web services or devices you need to find and install network monitors.  Network monitors come in a variety of applications so you need to find and build a monitoring system that fits your environment.  Considering you have other people connected to your MiFi it would not be uncommon for each of you to install a separate monitor specific to those machines.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Billing Date = planned GI date

    hei all,
    i have requirement that need to set billing date (in billing doc) = planned GI Date or request delivery date.
    case:
    i made SO for req delivery date = end of month (31.1.2010), system propose Planned GI date (31.1.2010).
    in fact, GI will be done in 5.2.2010, then billing date (in billing doc) will be same as actual GI date (5.2.2010)..
    all i want is billing date = planned GI date (31.1.2010), because i want to capture exchange rate in that date (31.1.2010) not in 5.2.2010
    kindly ur valuable input..
    thanks
    best regard,
    Hendry

    Dear,
    1) Created date means on which date you create invoice but billing date means on which date you want to do bill.
       Planned GI date means on which date you want to plan GI. Suppose your planned GI date is 31.01.2010 but your actual GI date in 02.02.2010 then billing date should be 02.02.2010 or after this date.
    2) If account not done of billing document then you can change the billing date.
       VF02 ---> Display Doc. Header Details --> In Header Tab --> Change Billing Date.
    May be it will help to understand matter.
    Regards,

  • I changed my data plan but AT$T Billing doesn't reflect c price

    I had to upgrade data plan from 3gb to 10gb. Plan changed on the AT&T mobile App. Last month I made this change.
    Now they show and are billing at the previous amount. How do you get AT&T to see the mistake and reduce the bill?

    Your line fees went down from $25 to $15 a month. Your data plan went up from $40 to $100. If you have 6 lines or more you make out well.
    I'm not sure what other change you expected.

    How can I change my data plan and backdate to beginning of this billing cycle

        That's a great question GregTho! If you change your plan online, you can select the option to backdate, future date or on demand, (meaning, today). Please let us know if this works.

  • I have a mifi 2200 that runs 3g. My data plan is unlimited. I've had the plan for years. The problem is my device is damaged and wont charge correctly. I wanted to just outright buy a newer device to replace it with but verizon tells me I cant do that bec

    g

    If you purchase any of the 4G LTE capable mobile broadband device (USB modem, mifi, Jetpack, etc), you will be forced to change your data plan to a tiered data plan. The unlimited mobile broadband data was not allowed to be grandfathered in when activating a 4G LTE device. If you really want to keep that plan for the time being, you have to purchase another Mifi2200 from a third party site/seller.
