Verizon promotion boosts shared data plans


Families on MORE Everything plans and small business customers who choose MORE Everything for Business plans can all benefit when they choose the promotion that will double their monthly data allowance. Starting Oct. 2, customers with monthly data allowances of between 20GB to 50GB will be able to get two times that data -- from 40GB to 100GB, depending on how much they choose -- for the same price, the best-ever from Verizon. Customers must act on these promotional offers by October 31.

This promo follows similar deals from AT&T and Sprint. You have to have at least a 12 GB plan for this promo. You can get up to 100 GB of monthly data, which is doubled from 50 GB at the current $375/mo rate.

We recently upped to 10 GB to take advantage of Edge savings per line. It might be tempting to tack on an extra $10 to bump that up 50% to 15 GB. We usually don't come close to using 1/3 that, but psychologically it would basically be like unlimited data for us so we no longer have to really think about bandwidth caps.
