Verizon has launched a new introductory plan for smartphones and tablets that gives unlimited data on its 4G network for USD 80 per month, in all locations, with paper-free billing and AutoPay. Verizon Unlimited also provides HD video streaming, Mobile Hotspot, calling and texting to Mexico and Canada and up to 500 MB per day of 4G roaming in Mexico and Canada. Verizon will also supply additional unlimited lines for USD 45 per line, for up to four in total. Users who use 22 GB worth of data may be less prioritised than other customers in order to avoid congestion as Verizon manages the network.
Customers taking Verizon Unlimited will be able to add a connected smart watch, GizmoPal, or other connected device for USD 5 per month. They will also be able to get TravelPass for USD 10 per day (500 MB per day limit; 2G speeds after that) while overseas. A mobile hotspot with 10 GB (of 4G data) is included at no charge. After 10 GB, customers will get 3G data speeds. Verizon’s new deal became available on 13 February.
Verizon Unlimited costs USD 80 per month per line, USD 140 for two lines, USD 160 for three lines or USD 45 per line for four lines (USD 180 total). Besides unlimited data, it comes with unlimited calls and texts.
As part of a promotion, customers who switch to Verizon and choose Verizon Unlimited can get smartphones at no additional cost, including the iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, Google Pixel, Moto Z Droid, Moto Z Force Droid, Samsung Galaxy S7, Samsung Galaxy S7 edge or LG V20.
In order to get one of these smartphones at no additional cost, customers need to switch to Verizon, sign up for the introductory Verizon Unlimited plan, select device payment and trade in one of 15 eligible devices. Customers can get these same phones for USD 5 per month when selecting device payment and trading in one of six eligible devices.
