I hate to break it to those who think that Verizon promised Unlimited data at top LTE speeds. They didn't.
This whole idea of data speeds comes from advertising. When Verizon talks about data speeds of up to 50mbps, which anyone who knows phones knows that such speed can't be handled by a phone. You really only get something like 15 mbps to actually work with.

I am unlimited, and under contract until February.
Verizon "required" me to upgrade my phones from the ones that I had when they acquired Alltel. I told them that as they were the ones making me change phones, I would walk if I could not keep my unlimited plan.
