Hope this works for others. I have been off contract with Verizon for over a month now just waiting and calling here and there to see if I could hook someone generous. Well today was the day! Results: free 2X 5c iPhones, waived activation fees ($30X2=$60), $30 off each line for 12 months ($60X12=$720). I currently have Unli Tlk&Txt w/ 500MB data, but with a bonus 1GB data from last March; more than enough for wife and me. Rep said to just ask again, and it is likely that I could get that bonus data for longer. Paid $80 in taxes. Well worth the savings up-front and long-term. Try your luck!

Anyone try cricket recently, wanna know about data speed in lkwd,

Can't comment on Cricket but T-mobile has a $50 plan which only provides 1 GB of LTE data. However, if you get referred you get 1 year of free unlimited LTE data with that base $50 plan. You also get the free international text and data. Let me know if you need a referral.

You must not be from lakewood, Tmobile sucks here once you go into a building it stops working.
Going to get cricket in the next few days will update

You're right. I'm not from Lakewood. In general T-Mobile is a little worse in buildings but I find the data much faster than others outside, at least here in NYC.

I need a referral to T-Mobile . I went to a store and they told me that they will honor it.

I haven't really shopped for a cellphone plan in years so Im really unfamiliar with the way it works. I'm looking for a Verizon family plan. Are there discounts or promotions on their plans? or basically whatever they tell me in the store that's the price?

Separately, I know there are number of low cost carriers who use verizon network who are charging about $40 for unlimited talk & text and 1 gb. Anyone know which of these carriers offer the best deal and service?

You need to switch the service books. Find a dealer that will do it for you.

AFAIK no real discounts on vzw plans.
PagePlus is 40 and has lte service. You just need a clean esn vzw phone and a pplus sim.
Depending on how many lines it may just pay to go straight to vzw

Im coming to the U.S for a week and a half.
Is there a cheap plan I can use?

Thingywingy · « **Reply #316 on:** December 03, 2014, 10:33:44 AM »

Verizon prepàid $2/day unlimited talk search forums.

cozmohoot · « **Reply #317 on:** December 03, 2014, 06:21:36 PM »

If you have a gsm phone you are probably better off getting a sim from simple mobile etc
