I had to go verify with my friend at Verizon last month about that too - wanted to make sure that if I upgrade, my unlimited data will be grandfathered in. He told me as long as I NEVER remove a smartphone from that number/account, I should be good. Well, I can't ever imagine going back to a non-smartphone now anyway!Originally Posted by 3CatsN1Dog
***Verizon upgraders....Be careful when upgrading. I just used my upgrade right after they went tiered and OMG was there frickin issues. It might be better now but right after they made the switch they actually tried to refuse to let me grandfather my unlimited data plan because it was a 'buddy upgrade' which basically means that I upgraded DFs line but activated the phone on my number. They tried fighting tooth and nail that we couldnt keep the unlimited data on both lines but after what felt like a billion hours and ten thousand different people on the phone they finally got it straightened out so if they say your unlimited isnt grandfathered in dont let them get away with it......
I may be going for the switch today..... my phone had a spaz-attack this morning and reset itself twice, then the battery drained from full charge to absolutely no charge in under 10 minutes! My co-worker let me borrow his charger, but I already emailed my friend at Verizon to find out when/where he's working at the rest of the week! HTC Merge or Thunderbolt may be in my hands by the weekend (depending on price, as I can't fathom more than $150 for an upgraded phone!)
