LOL Verizon....

So, Tmobile just announced anyone on a postpaid Simple Choice plan will have Unlimited High Speed data for 3 months starting 12/1 and ending on 3/1/2016 for no additional cost as a gift from TM.

Verizon says they want to be in the giving mood as well and will sell customers the ability to give 1GB of data for $10.... LOL

checked some postings here as well, about Verizon allowing their customers to give long distance calls for their relatives via the app. They mentioned it was an act of fraud.

Verizon doesnt need to give money away to people like T-Mobile does, and if you had read articles earlier they have actually gave each cust an additional ! GB of data noo charge. is that a lot, no not by a long shot but its something
