Verizon $15 data plan

[anonymous239411]

Was anyone able to upgrade to the thunderbolt, but grandfathered into their $15 data plan?

Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of having a 4G phone?

Doubt it since it does say the Thunderbolt requires the $29.99 data plan.

I don't think you can get $15 plan. But If I were you I wouldn't even consider it. Thunderbolt would consume 150 MB in one day. I am not a huge data user, I used 1.4 GB in 7 days, you do the math.

I don't use too much data usually.

Halfway through my pay period, I was at .37 GB earlier this week.. since getting the Tbolt, it is now at .767 GB since yesterday.

I would have to agree with this. I have been up since 4:30 AM this morning (eastern time) and it is now 8:16 PM. In the past 16 hours (aprox.) I have already gone through 100.89 MB. What makes this number worse is that I was connected to WIFI for about 5 our of those 16 hours. I guess when I was on it (when not on wifi) I guess you could call that power use but I still think it is a bad idea if you try to get the 15$ data plan.

Verizon should allow it if they don't already. You know how much money they would make off of data overage charges haha.

I actually have WiFi every where I go now. I just was able to get our WiFi code for work and I have WiFi at home so only time I'd be on the network would be when I'm out. Which now a days its work go home sleep work go home nd sleep routine

they used to have the 15 plan on smartphone but now you have to go 30 or 45 with smartphones

but when you upgrade to the tb they will make you get the 30 or 45 due to a new contract update.
