I only have 300mb on my data anyway. So I don't really care. I'm on wifi 99.9% of the time.

Wait just a minute? Was I screwed over? I had an unlimited plan when I had my Droid X, when I upgraded to a Droid Razr, they gave me a 2GB cap! That's shady!!

Any advice on what I can do other than call them up and give them an earful?

So, with Verizon dropping they're unlimited data, is anyone dropping Big Red when they're contact runs out? I just renewed my contract and went with the Razr Maxx and was able to keep my unlimited data for two more years. However, in two years when I have to scratch my signature on a new contract, Verizon can bite me. Verizon had a great thing going until they took away our unlimited data and the statement Verizon gave about the reason why, just shows how much they are about the money and not the consumer. It's just not worth the money anymore. I will either be going with a carrier that still has unlimited data in 2 years or a pay as you go phone. Verizon is out of control!

Shouldn't matter...the share everything hasn't gone into effect yet so he should have remained grandfathered. They screwed you but its pretty much tough luck. They can't add you back to unlimited.

I didnt know my plan got changed until after I used netflix the first time on phone and then I saw my bill and it said I went over the 2GB cap! I didn't have a cap when I started. I've read a lot of posts and it seems like there's nothing I could really do.

Yea that's my fault. I should have been more aware of what was happening at the time. So the netflix app goes, because it's pointless to have that now.

I just checked my plan online and it shows that I already have the 4GB promo plan. All this is happening when I'm not looking :angry:.

I used to be in these forums months ago, but after reading some threads, I will faithfully come here like I did before.

U can still call and tell them to put the unlimited back on there is no reason u would of wanted to switch so its obviously a techs fault and they can get it back if u cause enough rawkus and get the supervisor

We have 5 lines on the unlimited data on all lines plus a $20 discount, which is a sweet deal. Anyway, when we upgraded my son's line for his iPhone we got him for a Christmas present, the not so smart rep did something and threw that line only into a 2GB plan. She insisted the phone had to be activated then put his non-smartphone back on then it would be ready to go for Christmas. I called the "CMO" department - that's what you want to call it when you NICELY call into VZW and tell them your dilemma about how you're now on a 2GB plan instead of your unlimited. The bottom line here for anyone hoping to keep their unlimited data...DO NOT temporarily EVER put on a dumbphone then reactivate a smart phone...you will forever lose the unlimited data. I had an advantage when my plan got messed up the end of November - I worked for Big Red for almost 3 years leaving in 2009. I know how to treat reps, know the lingo, and knew that they could put the old plan back on my son's line, which they eventually did. I had one person tell me no, it couldn't be done, I asked to escalate politely to their supervisor who told me they would call me back and nothing happened. Finally a week later I called back and asked to transfer to CMO and got a new rep. She ended up being helpful but again didn't get back to me, so I politely asked for her supervisor. She was finally able to get me all fixed up, but took almost until Christmas day until it was all resolved. So, don't expect immediate fixes, but please be nice and take some of my advice here and you should be able to get back to your unlimited data plan. That is if you didn't put on another phone that was not a smartphone sometime before you added the Razr Maxx.

according to the rep I called last month because I accidently removed a feature on someone's account, the only way you can get something no longer available re-added to an account is if you call the same day it is removed.
