How do you receive a warning text message regarding your voice, txt and data usage?

I am new to Verizon phones, and I would like to know how to monitor and control my usage of voice, txt and data. Is there a place where you can set up an alert? I saw only one place under data usage but not others. Please help.

Its $4.99 a month and u can control ur max data text min etc. u can control when I can and cannot talk on the phone or how many min u use in a time period Block callers etc. its good if u are restricting kids etc. there's a smartphone app bundle includeing many Verizon apps. $10.00 I think the bundle is with 4or5 apps. Call *611 hen u login to the vzw screen name of the person u have the control on or the master screen name and adjust controls.

The my Verizon app tells u what u have used out of what u have left. The only things is if ur usage just renewed it takes a dy to start over.

gina, is the ONLY way to get data warning messages when you get close to your limit through the "Family Base" ? All of the users on this plan are over 18 and dont really need to be monitored. So I would like to do away with the added expense if we can STILL get a warning messages when we are close to our limit?

Alos one more question is the call number blocking attached to this also?
