I tried that but it's only for new contracts going from dumbphone > smartphone. With all the discounts I've received the phone has been almost free.
Since I've had this Bionic (September) I rarely exceeded 200mb since I was mostly on a wifi network but something was going on that month. The Verizon store acknowledged there were some upgrades to their network/system that were causing data drops for some customers but they stopped short of saying that was the cause of my 90mb news browsing session.

I even brought in downloaded excel worksheets showing how I was in the office on the wifi but the meter was running up to dozens of times an hour. It's pretty much stopped now although I don't know if it's because I"m controlling it with dataswitch.
