Any word on how much this will cost or how much data you will get?

If their tiered data plans are already overpriced, why would you think that their new family data plans would be any cheaper for the consumer? It's not like Verizon is known as a provider who wishes to offer a good product for a fair price.

Agreed. I'm sure they will be expensive and offer minimal, if any value over current offerings.

If I was to opt out of my Sprint contract due to them adjusting the discount on the 2nd line of family plan, could I come back to Sprint using the employee referal family plus plan?

Yes, but you'd need to wait 45 days (some say 60) to come back as a new customer I believe, and keep in mind discounts would not apply to the new plan (if you wanted to use your discount when coming back).

I just got my bill today, it went up $28!!! Did anyone else experience that high of a price difference?

If I can get out ETF free with this, and Verizon rolls out family data plans, I'm gone.

I've heard the price increase is only supposed to be $5-$6. They are basically taking the $129 for the first two phones and charging $109 for the first phone, and $20 for the second line. Then your discount is only applied to the $109 instead of $129.
It sounds like you have another charge, or maybe some other discount taken away. We had a $10 discount that was supposed to be forever taken away only to find out they said it was only for a year.

Wow, you were right!! I didn't even notice that, I had a $20 discount and it has been removed.
