Verizon sucks now.

[bad03xtreme]

Well they won't be getting my business when I get the new iPhone. They went from an unlimited plan for $29.99 to the minimum smartphone data plan that is 2GB for $30.00.

What really pisses me off is it says the 2GB plan is not eligible for discounts.

 

[TwinCities Dan]

We know. That's why it was on the front page 2 days ago.

 

[bad03xtreme]

Sorry, I guess I am late to the party.

There's been like 3 weeks of warning for this. AT&T do a tiered data plan too, except there's is $5 cheaper. Every company does this. It's corporate greed.

You can't have everything. T-mobile is getting swallowed by AT&T and unlimited data will be gone. Sprint will follow this trend in few years.

Get used to it.

3 weeks? More like nearly a year.

I get a 20% corporate discount on my AT&T plan as well, which sounds like it's not possible on Verizon.

It's corporate greed.

No, it's the pricing of a service. Unlimited data plans were invented in the simpler days of yore. It's not greed when someone chooses to sign up for that rate.

Holy hell! How much does a real data plan cost??

 

[dickdaney]

That sucks!!! Glad I got in on unlimited before the lockdown. I'm getting a 20% discount on the voice and data too!

I get the 15% federal government rate; what association gives you 20%?

3 weeks of solid confirmation, not rumors. Rumors don't mean **** until confirmed.

I know teachers get 20% on Verizon.

This is just plain wrong. I feel for you, neighbor.

Is this a common theme throughout all the Provinces?

Teachers get 19% not 20. But I believe all discounts are now gone, have you checked your account lately?

Procter and Gamble.

Recently a local carrier in Quebec offered a 6Gb plan for $30 so the Big3 did as well, but only in Quebec. I'm pretty sure the other provinces are stuck with crappy plans (I'm in Ontario with this one).

Hopefully the 6Gb for $30 option is available again nationwide when the next iphone comes out so I can upgrade to that.

Just checked my account. Still shows 15% discount.

There's no way they're going to eliminate employee discounts. They're contracts between Verizon and your respective employers. My mother gets 22% with the hospital she works at.

I still get my 20% off with Target
