I know everybody is probably trying to figure this one out... But with the side by side comparison chart Verizon is giving me, it looks like the new Verizon Plan will be less money than my current More Everything plan, simply because of the Line Access charge only being $20 versus the $40. But with ME, I'm also getting a $15 discount -- will I lose that discount on VP? According to the FAQ, I would retain my current 25GB of storage on the Cloud, so it doesn't appear that I'm losing anything else.If I DO lose that $15 discount, am I correct in figuring that I'd just be getting an additional 1GB of data for what I'm currently paying?Thanks so much!

It is a feature change I believe and not under "Manage your plan".

That's a $15 connection fee for that line. That would bring the $80 in the chart above down to $55, which is a $10 savings over the new Verizon plan. If you want a new phone, you can buy one for a discount from a third party vendor and still get your $25 discount for having a phone outside of the two year contract. The way I see it, the main advantage of the new Verizon plan is that it allows you to pay for a phone on a month per month basis. Although the data is a little cheaper, if you need more than 12 gb per month the next jump is $40 for 20gb., forcing you consider paying a couple of $15 overage fees per GB. There are more data options and more flexibility with the More Everything plan. Since the OP only has a 2 GB plan and is only getting a $15 discount on the line access fee, your calculations don't really apply.As it works out, they would STILL be paying the same amount for an additional 1 GB/month of data. For people currently getting 25 GB of cloud storage, they would retain that.In this case, the new Verizon PLAN would appear to be the better value.

Ann154, How do you add the Month2Month discount online? Where and how? I'm in my account under "Manage My Plan" and cannot find any indication of where to choose a discount.

What did you ultimately decide? I'm still battling with the same issue.

You become eligible for it. If you simply let your contract expire and do nothing you will not get it. You have to add it yourself or call CS and ask for it.

There is a discount for out of contract customers on the More Everything Plan. It called the Month2Month discount and you have to manually add it to your account either by signing into your MyVerizon account online or calling customer service at 1-800-922-0204 from a landline or *611 from your phone. You can't add it until you are out of contract though.

The $199 is the two year contract price not the full retail price. With the Verizon Plans, contract pricing is not an option. You either pay full retail price up front or through the Device Payment Plan (DPP) which spreads the full retail price over 24 months.

The discount does not take effect automatically. You have to manually add it yourself. You can either add it in your MyVerizon account or call CS and have them add the month to month discount.I have 4 lines, 3 of which are out of contract and 1 in contract. I get a $25 line access fee discount on the 3 out of contract lines because I have a 15 GB monthly data allowance. Total bill for all 4 lines including taxes and 15 GB of data = $184.

The Verizon Plan -- Better than More Everything?
