How much do you pay Verizon each month?

[groundkontrol]

I plan on getting a Droid Incredible this week. I wanted to find out how much everyone pays each month. I'm doing a pretty basic plan.

450 Minutes
+ Unlimited Text and Data
+ No insurance (may add this. how much is it? Can someone explain the differences between the 3-4 different insurance/warranty plans verizon has?)
+ 19% off student discount

$78 total.

Is that what most people? Seems somewhat expensive.

Thanks!

Had no idea that there was a student discount, but I found it after seeing this and now I'm saving 20%!

Do you folks know if the "primary" person on the family plan has to be the student in order to be eligible for the discount??? I am primary on our family plan and my gf is still in college but I am not so I was wondering if our plan would be eligible for this discount..?

Oh yeah:

Nationwide talk and text 450 min - 59.99
TEC Asurion - 5.99
corp smartphone unlimited data 44.99
19% corporate discount

I feel like I'm being ripped off even with the corp discount

 

[groundkontrol]

Which is the best insurance/warranty to get? What is the difference between them all?

I know alot of people are feeling like they are being overcharged but I figure it this way, I have had verizon for over 4yrs now, traveled all over the US (including through mountains and many unpopulated forest regions) and have NEVER lost a call and only been in roaming twice. In my opinion the little bit extra I pay is well worth the excellent customer service, great reception and fast data speeds I always have regardless to where I am at. At&T charges less because it's "3G" network is only fast if you can actually stay connected to it for more than 5 minutes without going into EDGE, their service is piss poor as well. I won't even get into T-Mobile or Sprint. Bottomline, you are getting what you pay for with Verizon.

Google "verizon student discount." It's the first link. Put in your school email address and they'll email you.

Yep I have had them for 12 years...except 1 year on cingular.
Only place I get no signal is Honsdale, PA up in the poconos.

Tax,tag, and title I pay about $140 a month! I don't feel it's too bad for the quality of service I'm getting and having two Android phones with all the bells and whistles. Been with Verizon for about 6 year after leaving 'Cingular' now AT&T with horrific service and customer support.

So basically I agree with this guy:
