Senior Discount - Why only in Florida?????

Why is Verizon only offering a Senior Discount in Florida only???  It doesn't seem quite fair that it is offered in only one state excluding all others.  Please explain the reasoning behind this decision.  I have been a customer for decades and would hate to leave a company that I do like but AT&T and T Mobile both offer fantastic discounts for their Senior customers.

Verizon doesn't have a senior discount. What you're thinking about is the 55+ unlimited plan which was a trial in Florida and a couple of other states.

People in that age range typically use less data where that plan would cost them more compared to something more modest like a 2GB plan.

It's been "in trial" for a couple of years now.  Not sure why they never rolled it out to everyone.

Verizon doesn't have a senior discount.  If it walks like a duck etc......

Again, why only Florida?

I just saw this senior discount plan as well and am very disappointed that it hasn't rolled out to other states. I have been a loyal Verizon customer for decades and this really has me rethinking things. That would be a real money saver.

How could it be a real money saver? Those unlimited plans will slow your data speed as the systems gets busy. That is not a cost saver if you want to use data. The old saying of "you get what you pay for" comes into play here.
