Verizon Wireless: Bring Back Unlimited Data Plans!
- by: Customers of Verizon Wireless Data Plan Users
- recipient: Executives of Verizon Wirless
On July 7 Verizon announced that they were getting rid of their unlimited data plans. They decided to be sheep like all the other cell providers out their and get rid of their unlimited data plans.
Instead of dealing with the problem and working with the customers that were abusing the system or upgrading their network they felt it necessary to line their corporate pockets even further after taking away the "new every 2 program"
Now, for $30 (which used to be the cost of the unlimited data plan) you now only get 2GB!!! they try to talk it up like that is so much data and 90% of their customer use less than than that.
If that is the case, then they should still offer the unlimited data plans say start the pricing out at like 2GB for $10, 5GB for $20, and unlimited for $30 for those that need it.
Then if they have folks that are severally abusing the unlimited restrict their download rates.
But now, the plans costs: $30/2GB, $50/5GB, and $80/10GB, those kinds of prices are preposterous, and after talking with their executive offices they want to take no responsibility or accountability for dealing with the abusers of the system, they want to punish the entire customer population.
Furthermore I personally don't see how these new policies are going to help... as the so called abusers still have unlimited data as anyone who had it prior to July 7, gets to keep it.. but what says they won't mess with us down the road when they realize that this is not working.
I am of the belief that just like the removal of the "New every 2 Program".. this has nothing to do with abusers, but more about the corporate bottom dollar... and pleasing their investors.
We need to send them a message loud and clear that we want the unlimited data plan back, and we need to send it loud and clear to them.

We the petitioners of the signed petition below are hereby letting you know just how much we want the unlimited data plan to come back for - Smart Phones, Ipads, and Mobile Hot Spots. Your new program of a tiered data plan seems to be nothing than a more than a ruse to make more money for your corporate investors as it fails to address the real problem at hand of which you state that alleged "abusers" are causing problems.
You also state that by doing this it will solve the problem... we simply do not see the relationship as these abusers still have unlimited data services.
Verizon needs to be different and handle the problem in a more effective manner, and that can be done by monitoring the abusers and restricting them as deemed appropriate, and not by punishing the rest of us users who are not causing the problems with your network
We feel this whole issue started with the removal of the "New every 2 Program", and now the data packages, whats next??
Right now.. you state that your leaving the existing customers with unlimited data alone.. but what is to say when you realize that this is not working that you will start trying to make changes to our plans.
Therefore, we ask that you take care of the issues and deal with issues at hand in a more proper way.
CAN YOU HEAR US NOW????!!!
