Anybody see what Verizon did yesterday? Of course you did. They changed the way customers are charged, & no surprise, the new way is more expensive!
Instead of starting with a fee for minutes-say $40 for 700 minutes, everyone gets unlimited minutes for no charge. Hmmm. That sounds great! Wait a minute. You have to pay per device. $30 for a feature phone, $40 for a smart phone. Then it's $50 for a 1GB data plan. So right away, your monthly bill starts at $80-$90. A laptop or USB stick is $20, an iPad $10.
So if you have an iPhone & an iPad here's your bill: $50 for the 2 devices, $100 for 1GB on each device. In some cases the new plan is cheaper than the old plan, but you get less data. Me. I don't have a cell & don't intend to get one. I win!
