Keeganbeaty,

Look no further help is here! Being able to manage your data usage is definitely important.

Are you trying to limit the data usage on a certain line? if so, with Family base https://my.verizonwireless.com/vzw/nos/safeguards/SafeguardProductDetails.action?productName=familybase&intcmp=SearchBanner:family base product:Top you can set a data limit and place a hard stop once that limit has be reached. You can also turn cellular data on the phone. What phone do you have so I can provide the steps? May I ask the reason you're looking to turn off data on the line? This is for the line you use or for someone else on the account?

Actually, I now the smart phone needs "data" access. More specifically, can I restrict INTERNET access using Family Base on a Samsung Note 3?

You can prevent the device from using mobile data. Family base and not prevent wi-fi usage. Verizon has no control over that.
