Data Usage

Does anyone wonder why we cannot store our unused data GB's when it does not get used up? We had to leave in an emergency situation mid-January and retuned end of February so we only used half of our GB's paid for. Why can't we keep the data in a storage plan for the months ahead when we might run closer to using more of the GB's paid for. L&L

You pay for x amount monthly to do with as you wish. You have the option to use all, none, or some. That's just how these plans work. Let's say you use 3 out of 6GB one month. Next month you would have 9GB, but still paying for 6GB. If the cycle continued, you'd be wasting money anyway on unused data.

No No No we wouldn't need to be so careful with the data usage and not run over and pay extremely high overage fees. We nee to watch now so we do not go over but if we had the extra GB's we cold search more.

When is VZgoing to let us roll over our data like the other carriers are doing? I'm leaning toward switching.

Better switch. Verizon has already said they are not doing it. Buy what you need.

Because if they allow roll over then they can't bilk you out of hundreds of dollars in overages with there scam o meter data usage calculator, as Verizon phones seem to mysteriously use more data even when connected to wi-fi, than any other cell phone provider on the planet...

Yeah plenty of plans to charge your customers more and more for less and less, since your company seems to calculate data usage much differently than any other cell phone provider, I have been told numerous times by Verizon reps that your phone will use ZERO data while connected to Wi-fi and yet we get billed for more data than our phones say we use, and if my phone is CONSTANTLY connected to wi-fi why is there any data being gobbled up?
