Verizon Killing unlimited Data
Verizon has decided to kill unlimited data even for Grandfathered users
This ticks me off, but might be the final push to get off a smart phone and just go back to a basic cell phone..

I also read somewhere that Verizon was still going to offer Unlimited Data plan to pre-paid subscribers, just something to point out.

Sprint for the win, except their 4G network is really sucky. 
/And they don't work in Leakey, Texas at all.
//Which, overall, is just fine by me, 'cause when I'm there, I don't wanna be found anyway.
///Actually, the 4g works pretty good when it's available. It's the coverage that's an issue.

They announced this a long time ago. I would go back and look at your monthly data usage and then get the plan that meets it every month.
They're all going to follow through. The only reason tmobile and sprint still do it is because AT&T and Verizon are bringing in so many more customers. Plus they have legit 4G networks. None of that HSPA+ crap. Even AT&T is lagging behind Verizon now.

I'm like you Joe. I've been grandfathered in with AT&T. I'm the only one though. Wife and kids have limits.

I am right with you on this. Go back to a basic phone
