I have discovered that all plans have their drawbacks. The biggest one now is using your cell phone # to visit certain sites (if you have the web on your phone). My daughter did and after about $70 in charges, days of research, several visits to the Verizon Store, their help, way too much time on the phone, I discovered that the fine print that allows these charges are impossible to find, there are NO humans involved so you can't talk to anyone, and there are no addresses because they go thru several companies all over the world before they get to our phone bills. There are NO refunds but if you try long enough you can unsubscribe. According to Verizon, this is the latest way to scam money from people. We have since taken the web off her phone. I will say Verizon's unlimited mobile to mobile texting is well worth the
$15/mo if you do alot of texting. My dtr's texts run over 15,000 per mo. (DON'T ASK, lol). A copy of my texting bill is at the local Verizon store incase any parents think their children won't overuse the texting!!! I reccomend the ins. too. Phone replacement gets expensive after awhile. We have had Verizon, Nextel and Sprint (which are now the same thing) and reception is the biggest thing. Check the coverage areas. We reprogramm our phones every month because new towers keep going up and we are in a very hilly area. Good luck in which ever you choose. |
