    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Yes, the SGS6 has a nano SIM card. I believe the S3 probably uses a micro SIM card so it won't fit. You'll either have to cut the micro SIM to fit nano, either by buying a SIM cutter online or using scissors, or take the S6 to a VAR and...

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon You should be fine. As long as you are activating your own phone and not dealing with VZW and phone upgrades through them you will not lose your UDP.

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Not sure what you mean by "sell" your plan. You can end your service with them assuming none of your phone lines are in a contract. You are now entitled to port your number (keep) when moving to any other mobile service provider. Just...

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Thanks again dusoccer! The irony is after all this now I'm debating whether or not to wait until the SGS7 comes out. I'm almost right in between release dates (SGS6 - 4/2015 and SGS7 - 3/2016). I guess the gamble being will VZW change...
