If this exists id like to know myself, my buddy was looking to swap over but won't because of Verizon's ridiculous data pricing.

I do know you can "assume" (take over) an account from another user and if it's grandfathered, the feature passes to the new owner of the account.

No, you can't change a tiered plan into an unlimited plan. You have to have someone who already has an unlimited and doesn't want that plan any more. Through Verizon, you can agree to take over the remainder of their plan.

The issue there is that, since you already have a tiered plan, you'll be responsible for paying both your tiered plan and the assumed unlimited plan. You'd have to pay the early termination fee on your tiered plan if you didn't want both.

Long story short, there's really no straight up way to change a tiered plan into an unlimited plan. Pretty much the only option is to take over someone else's unlimited plan.

Verizon reps can not give you Unlimited data as that plan is no longer available.

Why do you need unlimited from Verizon. so bad any ways. What was wrong with Sprint?

Unlimited is going the way of the dinosaurs. Even if you find a way to get unlimited the next time you upgrade to a new phone with the promotional price you will lose unlimited unless you buy phones at full price and something tells me even that will go away within a few years.

Yeah in a number of months I am sure they will get everyone off of unlimited data so you might be stressing for nothing. Just stick with which ever company you like more, as far as cell reception and customer service.

I think that might be true only if you are an account rep that goes store to store to visit vendors, but maybe it applies to corporate employees as well. As a vendor, I receive 2000 minutes, unlimited texts/picture messages, and I was lucky that my unlimited data rolled over.

I assume these are the problems with Sprint.

Still not many people use more than 4GB in a month. Just use your Wifi at home, and at work. If it's available. You won't have any problems with going over your limit.

Yeah I prolly am stressing for nothing. I had no problem with vcs, but they do have me a little aggrevated telling me that nobody is getting the maxx for free when obviously it is happening quite often. I sent them a receipt as they requested, so let's see what happens next just for kicks and giggles???

Edit: Sorry people, for some reason I thought I was reading the thread I started titled "Razr maxx discount pricing" and replied. Sorry for the mix-up.
