Don't you only get something like 2GB at 4G and then the "unlimited" is only 3G?

It's my wife and 2 kids so there's nothing but entertainment going on.

But it's 5 gigs of 4glte then it slows down. It's actually better coverage then just Verizon cause it uses both Verizon and att daughter has been on it for years. Sonnfor over a year. Wife was last one to switch.

I WON'T BE BACK. I'd rather build my own towers and start my own company then go back to Verizon

I've had Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T and Cricket (owned by AT&T) and all are pretty much a joke compared to Verizon.

Sure I've had problems with billing and contractual disputes and their PUCO rating is shit but their coverage is really the best out there.

I've had Verizon since before it was Verizon. Never an issue, really.

You get 5GB at 4G... and then 2G there after, not even 3G. If it were 3G, I might give up my Verizon unlimited for it.

But it's only 2G. And since I'm 40GB thus far in the billing period, I still sort of need unlimited.

They don't need unlimited
They only use it for entertainment. If the 2g is too slow maybe they will read a book instead

I am still on unlimited data on VZW. They upped my line $20/mo for unlimited. A few months ago they tried to throttle "high volume" (whatever that is) users. That got squashed so they do this.

IDGAF. I bought a Nexus 6P, so I can walk anytime. Their coverage is awesome and I'll hot spot my phone and my kids can rip through another ~25 gigs a month this summer like they did the last 7 summers on their ipads.
