Tidbits, thanks for helping us support Pierce69 with information regarding activating a smartphone on our network. A data plan is definitely needed due to the Internet access and multimedia functions of that Smartphone. The MORE Everything plan allows multiple devices to share the data plan allowance.

Verizon will not activate a smart phone without a data plan attached.
However if you are on the new shared plans you technically don't add data plans you just add access fees.
I guess it's all about your plan how it is handled.
when I called in on the 6th of sept and asked if I needed a data plan was told no. cause all I needed it for was talk and text. and I have internet at home and was told that I didn't need to add a data plan.
You do need one
