Verizon has Data caps now true.
But who is on Tired data?? 95% of people that have VZW have unlimited cuz they have had their plans before that cap came into effect(use WiFi) 🙄. If u want to get on VZW talk about how you can't unlock the phones or something else or how high they are 🙄
yes I do work for Verizon but...I have alot of friends who work for other providers and I have 2 that work overseas. so im not biased(Verizon sucx overseas)

On top of that we(Americans) are lucky, we are the only people that DONT have data caps. and we can text cross carrier some overseas carriers cant do that (NTT DoCoMo)

so lets quit talking about ehat we dont do and be happy at wat we do do 😕 (damn that sounds weird)

Everyone says how great VZW is on service. Well they themselves are "encouraging" users to use wi-fi at home or wherever possible because the network will overload. YES it is reliable, YES it is expensive but VZW rarely admits to their shortcomings and the truth is the only reason they are pushing wi-fi is because the Network will overload, they had thet problem earlier this year when 4G was down for about 2 days. The only real complaint I have is pricing on the tiered data. $30 for 2GB is unreasonable. I use around 1.5GB a month they should charge $10-$15 for 2GB.

I agree the price for data should be about $10~$15 for 2GB.
Here in Hamton Roads the whole network was down for about 4hrs at one point...NO SERVICE the 2 days later the 4G went down in other places.

Today's data is the equivelant of yesterday's Voice Calling plans. Carriers are in business to make money. They know what they're doing. They calculate three levels of the subscriber's net non peak usage. They then create the tiers at these usage levels to sell to the subs. When the first and second bill arrives, customers move to the next tier. The subscriber is now paying more for a tier that is actually closer to the one they were in and much further than the next one up. This means the carrier is making profits on usage not being used.

The carriers have you right where ...

I've never actually seen someone argue FOR mediocrity and getting LESS for your money. Nicely done in a I-can't-believe-anyone-thinks-like-that kinda way.
