Frustrated with VZW cost's.

[PACWEST]

$100/Month for unlimited talk (who talks on a cell phone anymore), unlimited messages, (okay), and 2GB of data. Really!?! Just 2GB a month Don't do me any favors. And surf the net, listen to Podcasts, go over my wonderful 2GB limit, another $15. That's now $115 before taxes and fees for ONE freakn' smartphone!

And what really get's me is VZW offers an employee discount of $20/Month unlimited 3G/4G data. But only if you're on an individual plan. They don't even offer individual plans anymore as the store clerk told me "Oh sorry, your plan isn't compatible with that discount."

Shared plans suck for individuals.

What's your market?
If you're in a metro area and don't talk a lot, T-Mobile has $30/mo 100mins of voice, unl texting, and unl data w 5GB of "4G" caps... prepaid.

Or $70/mo unlimited everything, unthrottled, no caps...

I live in the 98208 market. And have actually been using a HTC One S with prepaid SIM to give TMO a try. They've been pretty good thus far. At work though I'll lose coverage depending where I'm at in the building. ATT & VZW have repeaters at work. But I was looking at TMO's SIM only 500 minute, unlimited text, 5GB data $65/month plan. And possibly throwing a 15% employee discount on top of that.

You can always use T-Mobile's WiFi calling when at work. And you're saving your minutes. Plus, you're in T-Mobile's home market with 40Mhz of AWS, where you can also expect 2x10Mhz LTE pretty darn soon.

I've never liked the new plans and for one line they aren't the way to go

Second that. Vote with your wallet! That's the only feedback mechanism that works.

Reduce minutes. F&F, google voice, wi-fi, page plus, millenicom, options!

Check further via phone cs on employer discounts.

Best way to look at your verizon options is online on My Verizon. Much more useful than SOME store reps.

He can't reduce minutes. He's on Share Everything, and that's all that is now available.

Wow, thanks. Pac, did you give up unlimited for iphone 5?

Isn:t there a time limit for reverting plans?

What exactly does the home market, 40Mhz, 2X10 reference mean?

T-Mobile USA is based out of Washington State. The rest means they have a lot of spectrum resources and therefore network performance should be stellar in that particular area.

Meaning Bellevue, WA is T-Mobile's home turf. That's where their headquarters is. They are known to have spot on network in Seattle area.

40Mhz means that they have enough bandwidth to deploy LTE network as fast as Verizon's with peak download speeds of 73mpbs.

The individual plan is 2gb and when I priced verizon BEFORE they switched to the tiered plans and they would have hit me for 130 for the exact same thing sprint was offering (minus free mobile to any mobile) but with the new plan it would be 100 for unlimited talk and text plus 2gb.

That's 30 bucks cheaper.
