[Updated] Verizon Plans To Eliminate 'Grandfathered' 3G Unlimited Data Plans

[Yngwie77]

Kparks I think i'm gonna go with waiting and going on the family share when iPhone 5 comes out...I know that's what she really wants but the iPhone 4 is so dated to me that I can't rush into an upgrade just to save unlimited that I really won't need anyway. I use 4 GB per month but that's because I don't pay attention and must times I use the 4g even when i'm in a wifi areas because most times its faster. If I consciously kept wifi on all the time if prob use 2GB max....and wife uses none lol...I tell at her cause she doesn't use her phone enough...she has a blackberry for work and uses that most times...lol...I should take her line away lol

I tired to convince my sister too about Android being better than Iphone... but she turned deaf ears on me . The only point I took from that is like all the girls are having a party with their barbie dolls (iPhone), but cuz barbie doll isn't your taste you give her Bob the Builder (Android phone) instead . I don't think age matters either as she's 20+ . For a girl, Share family data with both Unlimited talk and text will be very beneficial to have. Share family plan also give you more benefit than tiered data plan as you are current Verizon customer. You have the choice of paying $90 to Verizon for 2GB to each phones, or you have the choice to pay $90 for 8GB that can be shared upto 10 devices.

If she's 12 and really wants the iphone, then get her the iphone4. She may have to wait a very long time for the iphone5 because even the subsidized price will be costly for a few months at least.

You are going to give a top of the line device to a 12 year old? Wow.

I decided to do the same. I use about 4gb as well and that's because I'm to lazy to turn on wifi when I'm home. I will be saving money going to a tiered data plan. Eventually everyone is going to be forced out of unlimited anyway.

That would be the best route.. Im currently at 12gb and my brother is around 3 and sis at 2 and we got a week left so im holding on to unlimited as long as I can

Having last minute regrets lol....thinking of preordering SG3's for both lines....then wifes line is set....daughters lines will be upgraded to smartphone before tomm and if she doesn't like SG3 by the time iPhone 5 comes out I can sell her SG3 and whatever its still worth I can put toward buying an iPhone 5 retail....20 mins left lol

You are like the best dad of all time! That is a pretty big investment in electronics for a kid. I hope you are going to invest in some otterbox goodness as well!

Good luck with your choices!

Do it. You can always cancel the preorder with no penalty, I believe...
