Verizon To Disconnect Data Hogs On Unlimited Data Plans

[dlevere]

Hey buddy, you, the one who is consuming massive amounts of 4G LTE data on your Verizon unlimited data plan and is out of contract. You will want to pay attention to what I’m about to share.

Come August 31st, if Verizon deems your account as using “an extraordinary amount of data” each month, you could see your line completely disconnected. In other words, Verizon may shut you down by the end of August.

So they are finally getting rid of the word "Unlimited" because they realized that was a mistake like everyone else who thought it would be manageable? I wish I knew even a crumb about networking to understand how these things work. Had a friend go to Japan, was informed of incredibly high speed internet with no issues ever for anyone and no limits, was informed the US is a joke in comparison and years behind. I'm wondering why that is.

I lost my phone today. Now I have to get another one. Sucks, bites, and blows.
