It is not mentioned anywhere that pay as you go plans do not include tethering. I spent two days trying to configure my devices and hours on tech support - only to find that it was all in vain. I'm out $35 for activation and $15 for the card. That does not include the $50 I spent on the phone. I asked the right questions at the time of purchase - but received bad information about tethering. I wonder how many other customers found out the hard way too? Overall - one bad tasting experience

Are you talking about a pre-paid plan? For a phone or a mifi type of device?

I signed up for the "pay as you go" plan - which I assume is considered a pre-paid plan. And no, I'm not kidding - tethering is not included in the plan. With respect to "You're kidding, right?" - I absolutely am not. Are you inferring that this should somehow be common knowledge - or are you actually surprised?

Which Pay as you plan you sign up for? I see it is the $50 unlimited all plan
The info I see is very specific. Unlimited MOBILE DATA. ie data use for phone access to internet only

I forgot to add that it was indeed a phone - a Motorola Razr to be exact. It was the phone of choice for me as I needed to connect to an external device which required dial up networking - through bluetooth.

The pay as you go plan I signed up for absolutely included data. I pay 99 cents per day - only on the days I use the service. Not only does the plan include data - it was also unlimited. The browers on the phone worked fine.

I paid a total of $15 for the prepaid card - not $50. I went into great detail with the Verizon salesperson as to what I needed - especially tethering. Could you please post a link to the area describing "mobile data"?

Unlimited MOBILE WEB is NOT Unlimited data. It means as I stated earlier, you can view the web from the MOBILE device only. Thus the name.

I see a star next to that Mobile Web listing. What does the footnote associated with that star say?
