Here’s some good news for Verizon customers or for anyone who may be in the market for a new cell phone provider. Verizon recently announced that they’ve dropped prices on most of their data plans by $10/month. Since the discount is per data plan, that could save you some significant money if you’re paying for more than one data plan each month. (Note: if you are on a shared data plan, you will only get one $10 per month discount).
To clarify, the discount is for people who are on Verizon’s “More Everything” plan. People who are on the “Nationwide” plan are not eligible.
Here are the new rates, which went into effect in early February of 2015:
- 500MB – Unchanged at $20
- 1GB – Now $30 – From $40
- 2GB – Now $40 – From $50
- 3GB – Now $50 – From $60
- 4GB – Now $60 – From $70
- 6GB – Now $70 – From $80
- 8GB – Now $85 – From $90
- 10GB – Unchanged at $100
- 12GB – Now $110 – New Option
- 14GB – Now $120 – New Option
- 16GB – Now $130 – New Option
- 20GB – Now $140 – From $150
If you’re an existing customer, you can choose to add an additional gigabyte of data for the same price you’re paying now or get $10 off your monthly bill. To make the changes to your account, visit MyVerizon or call Verizon customer service.
