He is probably on an old plan that they tacked data on for him. Though he should look into his data as that should be 29.99......

Yes. I don't see why not.New Plan for minimum minutes(450), unl. texts is 59.99.Reading all of that confuses me. How much should it cost for the minimum minutes possible (450?), 250 texts, and unlimited data?
Right now, I am paying $39.99 + $5.00 + $44.99 = $89.98
Should I be paying $29.99 for data?
$44.99 for data? Do you have VZ navigator too? They snuck that in there on me when I signed up again.
Nope, when I signed up 2 weeks ago, it had 2 data options - the one that was unlimited was $44.99.
So I should be able to get 450 minutes, unlimited texts, and unlimited data (for Droid) for $59.99 + $29.99 ?

This is what it says when I go on their website to try to change my plan:
Data PDA/SmartPhone
Unlimited Data Usage $44.99/month Keep Remove
Email and Web for Smartphone $29.99/month

Were you able to use the links I provided a few posts back? Do you have a VZW account set up to manage online? (I know dumb question but I gotta ask)
But let me guess. Those of us who just bought a Droid and signed a new contract, those of us who have been Verizon customers for years, will be left out in the cold until our current contracts run out. Is that correct?
No, you can always change your rate plan, it just renews your contract from the date of change, but if I remember correctly, your phone upgrade date will not change.

Don't be so sure about that. I've had many instances when a Verizon rep has noticed ways to save me money and advised me to switch from one plan to another. It's usually available for you to change on the web as well.
I noticed it says 10 friends and family on the 900 and 2000 tier on one of the pictures near the bottom. Does that mean the family plan with 1400 will lose friends and family?
I'm glad they are at least reducing the amount of plans. We had been on AT&T for 5 years and it took me awhile to review all of the plans and what made them different. I was hoping there would be a reduction on the current price of my 1400 family with 4 lines but it looks like no dice.
If you don't have any friends or family, do you still qualify for the friends and family plan?
Hey... am i reading their pricing right...
Did verizon finally get smart and realize that people hate paying 29.99 per line on family share plans or do we still have to play 29 per line for unlim data?
I mean that is if you have ...for example 2 droids on ur family plan...
on the 39.99 plan so i think it doesnt affect me.
i can keep my 10 dollar text plan right? i dont see that listed
So for a customer like me, will anything change?
I pay for 450 minutes, and unlimited text & data.
Also, does unlimited data include messaging, or do you have to pay for them separately? I have both unlimited, but I'm not sure on this.
Lastly, on a shared plan, do you have to buy the unlimited data for each line, or do they share one data package?
haha, I don't know, I'm already in love with it and know so much about it, shoot, i've been here for 2 months now with no droid.
If your current phone is with Verizon, just give them a call and ask them to move your renewal date up. They'll do it if you ask nicely. My former contract didn't expire until the end of February and they moved my renewal date up to Dec 21. Got my Droid for Christmas dontcha know! :icon_ banana:
From what I'm reading there won't be any change for me. I've got a family plan w/ two lins total. 700 min, 250 texts on each line, $30 data plan on my phone, and the full insurance on my phone. With my wifes current job we get a corporate discount so our bill comes out to $113.95.
Maybe my parents will have a better deal since they have 1400 minutes and unlimited texting on 4 lines.
Ok it doesnt look like this has been answered so i will ask again...
Are us Smartphone users still required to have a 29.99 data plan on each line or is it now shared on the family plan?

Tylenal: My wife and I have the $99 family plan for 700 minutes and each pay $30/mo for data for our Droids. Is there anything cheaper we can do other than going to the plan that had 450min? I don't think I saw any discounts to the family plans. My wife works for a company that uses Paychex for their payroll and we were sold the plans with the idea that we would qualify for the discount and we're only find out now that we don't. Needless to say we're beyond frustrated with this.

***AHHHHHHHH NONONONONO. DO NOT EVER. i repeat EVER pay for the $44.99 smartphone package. EVER. unless you recieve emails from your work that require a special server. THAT is the only difference.
**AND! FYI, when you add a smartphone to your plan, it AUTOMATICLY puts you on the $44.99 per month feature, unless you request the $30 per month feature. and i would venture to guess, that unless you folks have a vested intrest in looking at your bill each month, or had a rep who gave a darn when you set up service, that you are probably paying the more expensive one.
**to answer your question, 450 is lowest, $5 for text is good if, in a months time, you only send and recieve a total of 250 texts or less,
and you shuld PROBABLY be on the $30 data plan.
