Verizon Confirms $70 Plan Being Tested
Nov 8, 2010, 1:57 PM by Eric M. Zeman
Verizon Wireless has confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that it is testing a new plan that offers unlimited data, messaging, Verizon-to-Verizon mobile calling and 450 anytime minutes for $70 per month. The plan is being tested by a select group of customers via a $20 discount. Verizon wouldn't say if or when the plan would become a regular service plan offering. Sprint has offered a $70 plan for more than a year.

Nothing better to do with their time
Why test this with a carrier that has one of the worst plan structures out there?
It will hardly make a dent,

$30 unlimited for smartphones (not the cheapest, but far from the worst)
$20, $25, $50, $80 for tablets. Currently best in industry.

This Mark S character seems very upset over the changes in the Cellular phone industry. And is also very argumentative towards anyone with an opinion that differs from his own.

A worse plan than Sprints...
Includes all the same things EXCEPT the M2M on Verizon's only covers other Verizon customers, and Sprint's covers all cell carriers.
If this is a new, discounted plan and it's still not caught up to Sprint's, they might be in trouble.

Sprint FINALLY started adding post paid customers this year, and they haven't had a profitable quarter in over 2 years.

Sprint has had this for years... for $30/month!
There are hundreds of thousands of people on Sprint SERO plans that pay $30 a month for this level of service.
$40 if you add Any Mobile, Any Time and Sprint Navigation.
$50 if you add AMAT, Navigation and 4G data.
This is not news.

I am confused, why in the world are you comparing a plan that was/is only available to Sprint employees to a plan that is available to the general public?
I Joshua, fail to see the correlation.

just called Verizon must read
I just called Verizon to ask them bout this expecting the same response oh we don't know bout this but she looked it up and all I had to do was extend my contract 1 year and she added the feature for the 20 dollar discount
This stuff about having to extend a contract for 1yr is a bunch of BS!!! Contracts are suppose to be for subsidising a device not a rate plan!
...
I just called Verizon (Dublin, Ohio Call Center) and the rep I spoke to said there is no such plan.

What's there to test about?
I'm sure their customers are dying for a price change. Especially something like this. This is a great deal, and all carriers should have something like this already.

I know! These stupid tests! OF COURSE consumers want more
*reasonable* rates Verizon. ENOUGH with the damn testing.
Role this out already.
A better 2-line plan would be nice also.

I would think they were testing to make sure the network could handle the amount of data being used.....
