Data Plans and Grandfathering Question

[tbell6]

If you got unlimited data for your smart phone while it was available, then you are grandfathered_ No longer available on newlines since tiered data.

Unlimited data is one of the big reasons I still roll with Verizon. I imagine if they remove unlimited they will lose some people.

Definitely will lose the people that have unlimited now. I mean the cap limit sucks.

4G for the price of 3G sounds almost too good to be true...Although I live in an area that doesn't yet use 4G so I guess it's moot anyway. If true, though, I'm glad I don't have to pay extra for something that I can't even use.

But at one time didn't Verizon have 2 different price plans for 3g and 4g phone. If so Do they still do that and what are the price differences?

I have kept my unlimited data plan since day one. I've fine through numerous Blackberries and DX 1&2, Thunderbolts, D1-D2G and now the Bionic. According to VZW whatever your contract is it will be grandfathered in 4G or not.

No, the pricing for 3G and 4G is the same, always was, always will be.

Here is my deal/question:
I have an original Droid with unlimited data.
Just got a friend's Droid 3 . . . when I activate the Droid 3 on my line, will my plan just stay the same, including the unlimited data?
Thanks

You should be able to keep it. Don't let big red take it from you and be sure you mention your unlimited data plan. Let us know what happens.

Do I need to call them or can I just enter my phone number when using the activation process on the Droid 3?

 

[liftedplane]

You should just have to enter your phone number and you're good to go. You are just changing phones not plans
