Running "Buttery Smooth" CM 10.1/ 4.2.2 ROM
You are locked in until you buy a new phone and start a new contract. Today I went in for a upgrade, and was in for a HUGE surprise. I was so pissed that I was ready to switch carriers. I went to Sprint and T-mobile and the savings are just not worth it to make the switch. For all 3 lines I was looking at about 20 bux a month. Goodbye grandfathered plans!
I still have about a year, but even if I could keep unlimited data I would still switch over to Metro PCS. It's sooo much cheaper and their coverage is surprisingly good, even in the small town I live in. I get full 4G at my house. Better coverage than Verizon actually. AND NO CONTRACTS!!! Best of all, I hear you can f;ash verizon phones and use them since they are both CMDA
I went back today and ALMOST pulled the trigger on a new phone knowing that I would lose my unlimited. Then it dawned on me that I was completely out of my mind. There is no way that I'm going to pay 70 bux for 4 gigs shared. That is INSANE! I'd like to know how they came up with this. Verizon smartphones are completely worthless now unless you are on wifi all day long. I watched a 45 minute video on youtube that burned up nearly a gig. My 4 phones are going elsewhere at the end of this contract unless they make some changes.
Right now I have unllimited data & unlimited hotspot with my 4G phone. I'm going to give up my unlimited kicking & screaming - the least expensive way to keep your plan is to get a CPO - certified pre-owned - they come with a 1 year warranty same as new. I'm good with my current plan - the new plans SUCK. They are not for everyone.. they are not for most people. Jacked up the price - triple for a basic phone -- not everyone needs unlimited talk & text - not doing me any favors. Don't need it - don't want it...
Easy simple solution... order a Nexus device from Google and never sign another contract.
Yes, that will be the solution once you can order CDMA Nexus devices direct from Google or if you decide to switch to a GSM carrier. The new-in-box prices for the CDMA devices from Verizon and Sprint are ridiculous.

You can still have a smartphone and use AT&T's media net plan if you're interested in that. I think it's only like $30 a month or so.
