So basically you dont travel outside of metro areas?
Im in bumfuck egypt north dakota and out on our lake in middle of nowheresville minnesota out on the boat even in the middle of the lake i get reception at 4g even.
out at white sands missile range new mexico not a city of town in sight for like 20 miles in any direction i still get reception.
Yes VZW is expensive compared to others but i have never ever found a place i dont get reception.
I have the XL plan now as well so well see how much my bill changes up or down.
Smokinhot
3-man rules!!!!
When I had Sprint Unlimited I used less than 2gb a month with a 4g plan but had shitty reception. When I went VZW, same routine racked up fast and I had to watch useage. I still ended up paying the $10 for an extra GB. Truthfully, I'm around what I paid with Sprint now but better service.

I get so aggravated with Cell phone companies and plans.
I have Verizon. I had to get the Large size plan with 8GB because I was always just over 4GB a month. 4GB is the limit for the Medium size plan. Grrrr.
So now I looked in switching to the unlimited. The Large 8GB plan was $70, Unlimited is $65. Great. Saves me a few dollars. But then they show you that the Tablet access cost is no longer $10, it's just considered a device and is now $20. FU!
So I go to drop the tablet off the plan. The tablet was paid in full when I bought it in December 2014. They say I can't drop it off the plan because it is in contract. I said it has been over the 24 months and that I don't owe on the device. They said when I changed plans, due to my GF not having any internet at her house I needed a larger plan, that it extended the contract date. What complete BS. I need to call back or go into a store and see if I get the same story.
I hated the BS I had with Sprint for years as their shitty network and issues. Even if I can get rid of the tablet off my plan and save $20, Sprint's Unlimited data would save me about $30 a month. $55 for Sprint versus $65 for unlimited data plus $20 for line access for Verizon. My cell contract is up in March, time to shop and check out coverage and networks from other providers.

Per phone, that is cheaper than an individual pays. Individuals get boned. FU Phone companies. lol
Wife got shot down at the VZW store because we have 3 months left on our old contract. At which point our line access fees drop in half and become competitive with the unlimited contract costs... but we only get 24GB of data across 7 devices and often incur overages...
So looks like we have to wait it out. Yet another bullshit "Plan" that doesn't actually incentivize customers to stay with VZW.

I have the same issue. 8 lines and similar data which my kids eat up. I make them pay if they cause the overages.
We need more competition so the big 2 lose enough customers and start tossing out some better deals.
Yep, same thing happened to me. But it still applies to accessories and stuff...Anyone seeing your employer discounts get dropped on this unlimited plan?
We did end up switching today, but will have to ride out the remainder of our equipment rental fees. Still saving me about $40 until May at which point I'll be saving like $140.
I tried to go into best buy tonight to add a line. Phone isn't available at the store, no biggie, drive to the next closest store and tell the mobile rep what I want which leads to a 15 minute debate which ends with "You're right, but its now after 8:30 and we can't activate a phone for you...."
What is this fuckery?

Left Verizon for T-Mo about 5 years ago and never looked back.
My monthly bill is $30 and I have 5GB of data...can't beat it.
Best Buyery? I love it when I find a BB employee who actually knows what they are doing. So often, that's not the case.
