Just tried it the second time and I just to them that I was calling regarding an email and the guy just did it. Haha that's awsome BTW I'm in orlando FL.
I live in Nebraska and I got the deal without the email. I mentioned that I saw an add on the internet about a new family data plan and the rep seemed to know exactly what I was talking about.
I have 2 smartphones and one dumbphone. I had to add data to the dumbphone to get this deal. In the end, I came out about $20 less per month with 2x the minutes + data on all three phones. I asked if the 1 year extension affected upgrades and the rep said it did not. I also asked how long this new plan is good for and he said "as long as you're with Verizon".
I don't know if this has been mentioned yet but the rep I spoke to said this deal will be available until sometime in January. He said it may turn into a regularly available plan to compete with Sprint's "Family Data" plan. Which route they (VZW) take will based on the response they get through the next couple of months.

Ok this is major business here! Here's my situation..
On my plan is my droid, and 3 droid eris', all with unlimited data plans and we share 2100 minutes. My monthly bill is $290.
I called about this offer (I didn't get the email), but the guy said he could make it happen for me. With mine and 3 eris', my monthly bill would be $179.99 plus tax! Saving me almost $100 per month!
Of course the only draw is we would have 700 less minutes to share per month...
So I know this used to work, but does it still... if everybody on my plan got a Google Voice number and put the number it dials out to to make calls onto the fave list, would this not use any minutes for me?
Like I said, I know this USED to work, as I used to do it all the time. However, there was no need, as we never go over 2100 minutes, so instead of giving EVERYBODY my gv number, I just stopped using it. I have noticed though, that a few times I did use it and I made a call to somebody out of state and it dialed out to a different number than the one it always had dialed out to in the past... so does the google voice + fave 10 workaround still work???
Thanks a million for any help! (This offer may end up saving me millions heheh)

First call this AM, the rep said it expired. After correcting them, they dug a bit more and said it was regional. A bit more pressing and they finally said they weren't aware!
On second call, the rep know about it but since I am on Nationwide Plus Canada, it wasn't being offered to me...unless I changed my plan w/o Canada.

Called the second time and got it on my plan!!! Told them that I saw the ad for the new plan and he explained it to me and it won't extend my contract but would increase the dollar amount for the NE2. I'm a little confused by that though...
Mine was cake, got a very sweet young woman who asked why I was calling, I said...
"I'm interested in moving to the new unlimited plan."
"Ok, let me look at your account *hesitation* well it looks like nothing at all would change for you except you would save $20"
"Well I have one question since the one year contract will kick in, does it reset my new every 2 option date?"
"No sir, nothing changes except you save $20 on my data plan every month." "I...I love you."
*chuckle* "We love you too sir, I'm already showing it as confirmed in the system, so have a great day and call back if you need anything else or have any questions."
"Thank you!"
