No More Unlimited Data When Upgrade to 4G

LDressel

I have heard a rumor, that if I dont upgrade to 4G by this summer, that when I do my unlimited data plan will be downgraded to 2Gb. I currently don't have 4G within 100 miles of me, but it is rumored to be hear this summer. Anyone else heard of the limiting of data usage when changing to 4G?

Verizon: You can have unlimited data... just no device subsidies - CNET

After a day of taking heat for its plan to kill off unlimited wireless-data plans entirely, Verizon says users can keep them after all. But there's a catch.

Verizon Wireless now says that existing customers can keep their unlimited data plans. They just won't be able to get a new subsidized smartphone and still keep the unlimited data plan.

Now Verizon says that it will allow customers to keep their existing unlimited data plans if those customers either continue to keep their existing device or they buy a new device at the full retail cost of the smartphone.

In other words, if you renew your contract and purchase a subsidized phone, you lose the option to keep your unlimited plan.

If you already own a 4G LTE phone and have been using the unlimited data plan, you can keep that phone and the unlimited data plan.
