Verizon's New Unlimited Data Plan First Impressions

[HiImkuhl]

Here's my most recent test on Seattle...

I'm lucky to get 1x at my. Place, move not even half a block and perfect 4g

I've been trying to get Verizon to give me a free range extender

Good service here

Now at my place, no service

What's really crazy is there aren't any hills, there aren't any walls... The service just disappears... Tmobile has good coverage though.

I'm in Everett and I've been doing well with the Seattle area.

Yup federal way is the first place in nearly 10 years I've consistently had garbage service.

No clue why, it sucks too

I thought they were supposed to be open year round in the new location. ☹️

Sorry for the derail...

They're open.

3g speeds vs 4g speed

When I run out of data (the end of the month) and they throttle me in safety mode, I will run another speed test.

they upgraded a tower? My sister has really good service at her house now.

I love living a half mile away from a tower

To those posting faster speeds are you on unlimited and what is your data usage?

I'm in the new unlimited just switched from old udp currently my use is about 10gb not as high as usual

I'm on a Corporate plan with pooled data. Definitely not unlimited and tethered streaming gets noticed by the Boss.

This is about my normal usage. Same UDP I've had since my blackberry plan in 2003/4.

I'm on the 24gb shared plan that lets you go in safe mode after you use your 24gb. Safe mode is unbearably, ridiculously slow. I swear it's 1g speed.

It is, it's. Something like 56kbps if I remember from reading about it...

Hey Verizon, 1996 called, it wants its dial up back.

It's 1X capped at 128Kb. So basically dialup.
