PETITION TO GET UNLIMITED DATA AGAIN

I am very sure that Verizon (or someone from verizon) reads these community forums, so I would like to start a petition to get unlimited data back for $30 or even better $20. Verizon, if you are reading this, please let me know how many signatures of Verizon Community Forums users I will need in order to get you to reinstate unlimited data. I have heard your reasons, but they do not please me. So we (the people) can make a stand to be treated fairly and not be taken advantage of by these companies. Please sign this petition. Aren't you tired of paying $30 for only 2 GB or $100 for 12 GB a month!?!?!?!?!

I mean this in the most polite way, but I am not asking you to tell me that it is over... I am asking for support. Okay, please do not take this as me yelling at you, I am simply saying this is a petition. I know that virtually everyone is dissatisfied with the abandonment of the unlimited data plan. I am just trying to get signatures in order to verify it so that Verizon will once again have unlimited data. Unlimited data is in such high demand that there must be dozens of forums in the Verizon community about it. Well, taking all of that into consideration, I move to make a petition.

Will we ever get unlimited data again?

Hi,
I'm a semi-happy customer. I'm contemplating buying the Samsung Galaxy S4, but with a phone that great, you really need unlimited data. It gets expensive to purchase more data constantly, especially since my bill is already $125.00. With unlimited data plans on competitors service (starting at $69) how will we do with customer retention?

It will happen, but maybe not in my lifetime. Someone imagined GPS and now we have it. OTA radio and tv is free and unlimited.
OTA TV might not last much longer with the FCC asking for more and more spectrum for wireless. Also those are ONE way communications. Obviously that takes much less bandwidth. Obviously takes much less bandwidth to broadcast ONE signal to a million people than to have a million people stream your content.

Is there any way I could get unlimited data?

I am looking to get a new phone but I hate having only 2gb. So does anyone know how I can still get unlimited data?

Take over someone's line who has unlimited, but then you will not be able to get a 2 year contract for a phone.

Have a Friends and Family plan. I have unlimited data and want to keep it. Questions on what I can and can not do with account changes.

Ok,
So I am on Friends and Family 2000minutes and unlimited Text.
4 phones.
My phone has Unlimited Data and Hotspot
Other 3 do not have any data.
I am curious what I can do and can't do that will keep keep the plan as is and not force things to share everything.
I am allowed to have 5 phones under this plan. I am curious about adding and deleting phones.
I did try and add a 5th phone. When I tried to activate a 5th phone online it would not let me do it. Tried to get me to change plans.
Here are a few scenarios that I see coming up in the future.
I would like to add a 5th phone. My father has an account and I would like to roll him into my plan instead of his own account. I have already done this once before many years ago with no problem with 2 of the lines that I currently have. Is this possible or is that enough to trigger the move share everything scenario.
Second. how about removing a line from my plan?
One of my numbers is for an 18YO that wants to be more independent and have their own account. Can I down the road either transfer that line and number to its own account which would be share everything (I do understand that). Or can I delete that line from the account without triggering the share everything scenario?
Also it seems when I look online I can change data plans currently three phones are on data block. Can I actually change them to a data plan within the Friends and family or is the Share everything scenario triggered. What about if I change them to a smart phone from their basic/feature phone. I know I can't get unlimited data but can I still get them on my friends and family tiered data plan?
What is up.
Thank You

yes to everything; you can add a line (up to 5 total for Family Share), drop a line, upgrade a basic line to a smartphone (and then add a tiered data plan) and stay on your current calling plan ... it may be easier done in your local Corporate Verizon store, though ... just be sure they don't try to switch you to Share Everything if that's not what you want

Unlimited Data with Limited Talk and Text

I have to say that I'm disappointed in Verizon for not recognizing the people that do not talk and text a lot but do use their phone for data. I pay a lot of money to Verizon mostly for services I don't use all that much. I would like to see a plan that takes us other folks into consideration and have an unlimited data plan with some type of limited talk/text. I hate texting although I do a small amount of it and I don't talk much on the phone because I talk all day long for my job and become a hermit after work. I've been a loyal customer and would like some type of recognition of being in the minority group that is the opposite of most folks. If Verizon would look at my usage, they'd see exactly what I'm talking about.

I do understand why you might be upset that there is no unlimited data anymore, and I know that you are probably wondering why it is no longer offered, and I would be more than happy to explain it to you. As you know, things are not like they used to be and our world is very fast paced. With Technology increasing everyday, the standard of that technology is also increasing. With the standard of the things that use data increasing, that amount of data that those things use are also increasing. As you know, we live in a Technological World, and the amount of people that are using data grows tremendously each and every day. When you combine these things, the network can become congested. If you have ever driven in heavy traffic, you know that you get nowhere fast. Well the Cellular pathways are the same as rush hour traffic, combined with school letting out. In that situation, you wont go but a few inches an hour, and if everyone was able to get Unlimited Data, that is what would happen to cellular speeds. Other companies offer it because they do not have NEAR the amount of peoplet that Verizon has on their network, nor the speeds.

Unlimited data w/ iphone 5?

hi all, i'm sure were in the same boat here, trying to find a way to get unlimited data for the new iphone 5. verizon has confirmed that if you want to upgrade your unlimited data line, you will need to switch to a tiered data plan. however, i'm on a family plan, and my question is: if my brother is eligible for an upgrade (who doesn't have a data plan), and i upgrade his phone on his line to the iphone 5 (which will switch him to a tiered data plan), and then after deactivate the iphone from his line and put it on my unlimited line, will i still have unlimited data? technically, i didn't upgrade MY LINE, so it would be as if i bought the phone for full retail price and just added it onto my line. also after i switch his phone back i could change it back to the cheaper data plan and not get charged for it. can anyone shed light on this for me?

I did read those 4000 threads but just want to be sure. So, are you sure it will work?

How long does it really take to get my unlimited data plan back?

So Wednesday morning I go into a local Verizon owned-and-operated store to buy a Galaxy S5 on installment plan, like I did for my GS4 a year ago. Get talked into an Edge phone plan and the More plan, and they get that unlimited data plan off my line as fast as possible and then find that I can't get Edge for another 3 weeks. So we revert the changes (in theory), less than half an hour after the original change.
So I'm just standing there reading twitter and waiting for them to fix the situation and get me back to where I was when I walked in. I was actually willing to go ahead and buy a GS5 on installment plan (as I'd wanted to when I came in), but they *really* did not want me to do that. They got the voice plan back, and put me on a 2GB plan (which is 1/3 of my average usage), telling me I'd be back on my unlimited plan with hotspot service "by the end of the business week."
Today as I'm checking at the end of the business week, no sign of my data plan or hotspot service. The folks on the social media team tell me that my service might be crippled for another 10 days while an offline team tries to fix what the folks in the store broke.
Am I really out of luck for two weeks? I got a GS5 on T-Mobile with 5GB of data, which will get me by... TMO didn't seem offended that I wanted a GS5. But if I have to "be careful" with my data (as the store manager put it) on Verizon for two weeks, I may as well forward the phone and power it off.
At least I know never to set foot in this particular Verizon store again... last year they wouldn't sell me a GS4 "in case someone came in and wanted to upgrade" so I went to another nearby location. If my plans get unbroken, I'll either go to that other location or check eBay for my GS5.

Think of this and be amazed. If Verizon is trying its best to get customers off unlimited data by any means possible, and quite frankly tell you once you purchase any device on subsidy or the Edge program you lose unlimited. Now the Worry Free Guarantee states within 14 days if you change your mind you can pay a $35 restocking fee, and go back to your old plan.
However they no longer offer unlimited data so they give you this line of it has to be set back manually (inactive price request) and then it gets denied. Then they say it has to be submitted again for approval and then it gets denied. So why have a worry free guarantee?
And think to yourself, a plan they can remove in minutes takes them weeks to give back? They don't give it back. Search the forum.
Good Luck

How do I get my unlimited data plan back

Upgraded my phone at a verizon booth in a SAM's club and was told that nothing would change on my plan. They activated the phone and got everything all set up so I didn't skip a beat. A couple days later I receive a text from VZW that I was close to going over my data minutes so knew something was wrong. Called VZW and sure enough was told that unlimited data was not longer provided and since I upgraded my phone I lost the plan. I explained I had not been given that piece of information and if had I would not have changed phones as the unlimited data is more important to me. The VZW I talked with was verify helpful and said I should have been told, that since I was not told he would send a request to corporate to get the unlimited data back for me. He even bumped me up from 2G to 5G with no cost to me so that during the 48 hours that this could take I wouldn't incur any costs. I was so very pleased and assumed all was ok. Then yesterday I receive another text from VZW again telling me my data was close to going over my plan. Surprised I called VZW today and again talked with a rep who was very pleasant but informed me that the request sent to corporate was rejected and guess what, I wasn't informed and now it is past the 14 days so I can't return the phone and re-establish my plan back to how it was prior to the new phone. I was told I had been sent a email telling me this was rejected but I have no record of an email. I don't understand why I get texts when I' close to going over data but they wont send a text to tell me a request has been rejected and this is sent to some bogus email account that I'm not aware of or even a notification sent where I can go into my vzw account and call up the notification of reject... nothing... then I'm told the only way I can get in touch with corporate is to via mail.... really.... a company that's business is smart phones, who communicates with me via texts, emails, and I can't get in touch with them other then mail. So because I upraded my phone, I am now under a 2 year contract again, so can't just cancel my account without penalty and I have no unlimited data. How is that customer service.

Yes I was told I could return my phone within 14 days; however, when the vzw customer service rep I toalked with told me they agreed I should have been told this important piece of information and submitted an "Inactive Price Request" to Corporate on my behalf, I assumed after the 48 hour waiting period that my data had been restored since I was NOT NOTIFIED by vzw that they had rejected the request. By the time I was texted again from vzw that I was close to exceeding my data plan it was past the 14 days and vzw will not honor returning the phone at this point. What I find interesting is the vzw is great about sending text and emails when a person is close to exceeding or exceeding their plan however they were not able to send me a text or email telling my they had rejected my request to reinstate my unlimited data plan. A bit sneeky and unprofessional in my opinion.

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 have old unlimited data plan and insurance and just broke my Google Nexus 1. If I send it in, will I get a refurbished Nexus 1?

I have old unlimited data plan and insurance and just broke my Google Nexus 1.
If I send it in, will I get a refurbished Nexus 1?
I was told by a friend that they no longer supply those and if I break it, the insurance will give a crappier phone since they no longer have Nexus 1s.
Is this true? If my phone is no longer properly insured is there a way to cancel/reimbuse my insurance/verizon account since it's worthless if they don't give the same model to replace it?
Second question, if I buy the contract-free moto X at full retail, can I use that for my account without losing the unlimited data and then dropping the insurance?

Ann154
How come so many people on this forum are having trouble doing that? They get a new phone, pay full price, call to activate, the rep accidentally removes unlimited data and then says, "Sorry, I can't restore that." It's then up to the customer to find someone here to deal with problem and with no assurance it will be restored properly (one person lost his global unlimited data, only domestic unlimited was restored.)
I plan on keeping my unlimited data, purchasing phone full price; what is the best way to make sure it is done properly? Go to the VZW store? I does seem most people having problems did it online or by telephone.
Thanks.

How are you going to access your company's email?
Not sure I understand the question, but it will be either through Lotus Notes on my laptop or through the BlackBerry. The IT folks at my company notified me that I will need to get the Business Enterprise service from the provider.You say that your phone will need to be set up by your company IT folks and they have said that you will need the Business Enterprise service. Why are you asking to find another way if your IT folks won't set up your phone without it?
You are able to set up multiple email accounts on a cellphone.
My company's e-mail does not support Android, which is the OS on my current phone.Your company's email doesn't have to support Android. Android is not an email protocol. Android uses pop and imap which are not specific to android, but are cross platform.
It seems that the cheapest way would be to see if you can access it on your personal phone via an email client without making any changes to your plan.

I purchased a Samsung s5 for full price and went to the verzion store and was told I could get my unlimited data back, but I couldn't wait the 45 mins so. Called and was told by the operator that Verizon was doing that anymore, has anyone else been lied

JJust was wondering if the store assoc. lied to get the sale quoted in

Where and how did you purchase the Galaxy S5? Did you have the unlimited data plan before making the purchase?

How do I get Verizon to honor unlimited data plan stated on receipt?

I was among those who upgraded their phones during the "glitch" that allowed customers to keep their unlimited data plans. Our two new iPhone 5s' arrived this week, along with receipts for each that, as far as I can tell, maintain our unlimited data plan.
When I called to activate the phones, the rep told me he couldn't guarantee we would keep the unlimited plans after activation, and the activation (along with the potential change to the 2GB plan) was irreversible. I asked to speak to a supervisor, who told me we still have the option for unlimited data and that it was just our luck of the draw. I took this to mean we lucked out with the glitch. However, when the rep got back on the line he said the supervisor meant that when he (the rep) activates our phones, it will kick us to the 2GB plan, and he may be able to switch us back to the unlimited if he acts fast enough, but it was no guarantee (hence "luck of the draw"). I decided to not act just yet and got off the phone.
So, is the rep pulling my leg? I understand I got to this point through what was later revealed to be a glitch, but I thought Verizon stated to the press they would honor the orders, not to mention I have receipts showing the new phones and our current plan that we've had for years.
How should I proceed with this? Thanks for any help.

Fortunately in all my dealings with the court system "written" takes a great sway over intent. You have someone sell you a service and they write this order is final with the additions etc. Then on the day the goods or services are provided the company states this was not supposed to be agreed to (intent) the contract is based on what was written and agreed to.
I am presently locked into a simular situation now with a home improvement contractor. On the contract it stated the job must be completed no later than October 13, 2013 or sooner. Its signed by them and us. Now they missed the contract date, they are claiming the agent for the company had no right to do so. They keep pushing the date further and further away.
Went a filed a court claim for the large money we paid plus simple interest on the amount. Also found another company who will do the job now at a cost $4,000.00 more than the other company. In my state the court can grant me either as relief. Also not doing the job is criminal in nature so we can file a police complaint for grand larceny. Bad business practice.
Evidently the company was served with the summons last week. Since they called and said the work will be done complete Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
They have to honor what was written. Same thing with Verizon via their press release.
I remember years ago an online retailer had a typo in their ad, the price should have been $250 but the printed ad said $25 in that case the companies ad had a disclaimer which said not responsible for typographical errors. In this case verizon had no such disclaimer at the check out process.
