I just keep a live stream going. I do more behind the scene stuff a lot. I do talk on the phone with customers but I do a lot more emails.

True unless they keep raising the price for off contracts but I hope they leave us alone now. Btw do you have any insight into my question I asked above? Thanks

I'm not sure about your question because I'm new to Verizon so I'm not sure when it comes to the account part but I will see if I can get someone in here who would know.

I appreciate it.

Some would say 100 gb is abusive. Me personally? I don't care why or how much anyone uses. In the end it's what Verizon says even their empty threats of disconnect.

Not sure the limit but i had 9 lines, family line with 5 lines and four $45 UDP lines on a sub account.

Their threats aren't empty as they have disconnected people on UDP in the past.

I tether A LOT at work and I never hit over 100 GB, without really abusing the system. I have no problem with 200 GB users getting kicked. They use more than their fair share and cause congestion and slow down everyone else's connections, after all it is really shared bandwidth.

200 GB is like 6.4 per day, every day.... that is quite a bit of data.

Not everyone agrees with me tho

Depends on what you are tethering... Netflix at the highest setting can do 7gb per hour...

I have a main line with 2 Udps on a nationwide plan and I believe 3 sub accounts each with the loyalty plan. So I could add another sub account with two lines of the new udp plan? Is the max line # the same as atts which is 10 lines per account? Thanks


As far as what Verizon has done in the past I have not heard of anyone getting disconnected on 2/16/17. Correct me if I'm wrong. I mean I had one of mine taken away before because some one or some thing thought I upgraded on that line or any line and had to file an IPR to get it back.

They have done disconnections.

Before it was just for "big" users (500+ is what everyone gauged) whereas lately they dropped that to people doing 200 GB+ on the legacy UDP.

As with the feb 16 2017 the same thing was said by them and what happened? In that article it mentions one reader getting the letter but not confirmation that it was in fact taken away. I'm trying to find numerous customers who've actually been disconnected.

Most swapped to another plan or carrier. If you read the letter they give them a date that says "It will be cut off by X date" -- I am 99% sure those people swapped to the right plan or another carrier so they didn't lose their number.

Yes the same letter that they sent about feb 16 was the cut off date this time around.

I am just saying I doubt you will find many who let that date come and go to see if they go through with it as most don't want to lose their numbers. I doubt it is an empty threat -- otherwise they wouldn't have even bothered sending them. Also why would it be empty? They technically don't have to offer it anymore if you are not bound by a contract.

They can take it away even with a contract by eating the etf. What I'm searching for or trying to find out is if anyone on here or other forums or even commenters on droid life etc who have actually switched etc or did nothing and let them disconnect them. That's why I refer to it as empty. I mean just look at all the rhetoric they said in the past against unlimited data only to start offering it again now.

Of course they aren't going to eat the ETF. They will just wait.

Good luck with your search -- I doubt anyone did. We can just agree to disagree on it being empty. I don't see them going through the trouble to not follow through when they fully can without being penalized.

I'm not sure about Verizon but I do know that when att raised their att udp price they allowed customers to leave without paying an etf right? I'm sure Verizons done the same thing in the past and others now that I think about it.

Yeah I didn't say they couldn't do it -- They just won't. The people w/ legacy UDP are < 1% of their customers. A few still in contract won't hurt them to wait it out.

The 2/16 disconnect was extended one month to allow those affected to move to the new unlimited plan

People who have gotten past letters have been disconnected
