I am just going to dump Verizon. I had been considering it for a while as their 3g service has steadily declined in quality over the past two years, and any time I called in about it support was limited to "have you tried reinstalling VZAM?"...sigh. I already have a high end Sprint plan w/hotspot I've been using when my Verizon service has been borderline unusable. While their coverage is lacking compared to Verizon, their service has been reliable and doesn't drop to < 6kb during primetime, as my Verizon stick often would.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27840614 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:29:39 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27821149 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27821149 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 04:07:42 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27819969
During the phone call this is not what was said, and the salesperson was trying to get me to sign a new capped contract.

Now I'm guessing the answer to this is no, but I have heard Verizon allows grandfathered unlimited phone accounts to move to LTE if you pay full retail for the handset, has anyone heard of or had success doing this with a mobile broadband account?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27819969 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 19:51:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27790695 --

I know people that are still on the $45 ALL UNLIMITED with VZW that they issued in 2000/2001 for Christmas. The promo was only out for 2 months. The only thing that the customers do is pay full price for the device. VZ has been ordered they can not change the contract due to no new contract has been given to them.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27790680 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 13:07:32 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786497
Try getting a used Novatel USB760 (verizon branded) off of ebay, they are virtually free. Switch your plan to it via customer service.

I know that Verizon announced that they plan to kill all Alltel handsets on the Verizon network by early 2013, but I've been hearing from affected Alltel customers that switching to Verizon branded handsets are avoiding termination. Verizon apparently doesn't want to keep the Alltel specific programming alive on their network.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786497 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:09:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786049 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786049 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 06:22:35 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786001
Alltel accounts were being closed in January, it was suggested that I switch to LTE, I asked if it was capped, she replied yes, then she hung up.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27786001 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 04:21:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785617 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785617 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 22:47:09 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785580
I dont think they're worried about bad PR considering they did enough damage simply coming out with the share anything plans and practically forcing customers to switch to them. ATT atleast is giving their customers a wider choice of plans, and can keep their existing AND upgrade their phones.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785580 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 22:35:50 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785544 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785544 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 22:20:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Verizon-dropping-Alltel-unlimited-data-customers-27785099 --
