Droid Charge hotspot

Spoke with Geraldine on VZW chat, she said the hotspot is included with the data plan for $29.99. To good to be true, so called VZW and spoke with Jacob, he says hotspot promotion does not have an an end date, but cannot confirm that it is included with data plan. Does anyone know the truth?

Hi VzwVA,

I understand receiving conflicting information can be frustrating. The information Ann154 provided is correct, the promotion will end July, 6 2011. Additionally, existing customer with an unlimited data plan of $29.99 or higher with an eligible 4G device (ThunderBolt by HTC, DROID Charge by Samsung or LG Revolution) will be able to subscribe to the unlimited Mobile Hotspot (MHS) feature for $30/month.

On July 7, 2011, the Mobile Hotspot free promotion will be removed from the device. The next time you try using the application you will be prompted upon initiating a MHS session to self provision the new MHS feature for $30/month. I hope this information alleviates the confusion. Please let me know if you have any additional concerns.

When I attempt to make a hotspot with my Charge I am receiving 800 numbers to call. Is that the only way to " subscribe to the unlimited Mobile Hotspot (MHS) feature for $30/month"? When I go to the Verizon plan page I DO NOT see an upgrade to an unlimited hotspot plan for $30/month. Sorry, but this is still confusing.
