I am fortunate to be grandfathered on the ATT Mobley unlimited plan @ $20.00 monthly. I am not a heavy data user since I get tv from Dish Network and it works great!

How many Gb are you using? How do you find out? I'm trying to figure out how much we'll use on 1-3 month trips per month.

Verizon has a bargain plan in many, not all states, for unlimited use at a special rate. There is at least 1 other restriction I do not recall. Works for us as wifey lives on the phone

Google “Verizon 55 Plus Plan”

It will not show up on their regular website. Limited to a few states.

We have the verizon unlimited talk and text 40 GB and a verizon hot spot. We use it on the road and when at our Florida winter residence . We have a unlimited plan at the S&B. We use the verizon plan for everything when on the road and have never exceeded the 40 Gigs. We have no idea on what you may use as we have no idea what you will use it for.

i just looked up verizon and it appears they do have some sort of 'unlimited' data program. these phone companies keep changing names and service....darn them.


'If you are a new customer or adding a line YOU CAN GET unlimited data with Go Unlimited, Beyond Unlimited or Above Unlimited.' per verizon's website.

When buying These "unlimited data" plans ask then specifically what unlimited data means ask the if it is at any point or for any device throttled.

Spectrum mobile, they use the Verizon network. Think it's about $45 per month per phone.

I currently have Verizon unlimited data. Could the info be incorrect, or is this a change announcement coming directly from Verizon?

We're also grandfathered with AT&T - never had an issue - and have been very happy with customer service too!! Been with them for many years, and no plan to change.

We had Smart Talk from Walmart. It uses Verizon towers. They advertise America’s largest most reliable network. We were in Dubois Wy. and needed to call a friend who lives in Dubois. We had 3 or 4 bars of service but couldn’t make a call with Smart Talk. Everybody with standard Verizon could call. Verizon in Dubois was using someone else’s towers but only for Verizon customers.

Just because a carrier uses Verizon’s it does not mean you have full Verizon service.

The Verizon 55+ plan is about as good as it gets. Just keep in mind, as with all other unlimited plans, even grandfathered ones it's as much as you can get.
