Consumer Review
i had another service provider and they constantly ripped me of from myaccount so i thought i would go with another provider to stop that type of action and as it turns out i moved into the same type of actions i tried to get a way from and i resurched it very well so now i find i am getting the same treatment as before being charged over what is in the hand book for minute to minute and to call or recive a call or text from another verizon ohone is to be free of charge it turns out they charged me over $1.00 when it should have free and to top it off the distributers do not want to do anything to recencile my discrepencies they dont care about their customers or what they put in their hand books as to poliecys that they seem to be so proud of!!!! so they are`nt no different then my last two service providers cause im still getting ripped off.
Consumer Review
i have buy mine today, and i have no idea how activate it! It looks like imposible 🙁 please help
Consumer Review
Pros: Network.Cons: Very expensive!
Consumer Review
If you like to be charged for things that you did get or use they are good. However they will normally take it off of your bill.
Consumer Review

Verizon has kind of a bad rap, and rightly so. I live in a rural section of Mass and was with a company called Unicel. Great CS, good service, but a few drop pouts here and there. They were bought by Verizon, and I was a bit perturbed because my bill had been rock-solid with Unicel. Not so with Verizon. We finally hammered something out and got my bill “liveable”, though higher than some. Now the caveat: I am a Field Service rep and drive all over New England. Seeking out cheaper service I tried an AT&T reseller; $39 a month unlimited talk and text. I fired up my old GSM phone and dropped in the SIM, but wisely did not cancel my Verizon account. I had forgotten the “pleasures” of GSM: varying signal and echoing in the earpiece. Since the AT&T plan is a pre-pay I think I'm going to cancel and stick with Verizon, since when I was at the furthest points of my territory yesterday I still had a Verizon signal, but WHOOPS! no AT&T. Verizon CS is not an issue and they worked well with me to reach an acceptable bill. Still high, but the network is there when I want it. They would get 5 stars if they would match the competition.
Consumer Review
just had to comment on the because of the naysayers i read here. i have had Alltel/Verizon since 1995 and have never had one single issue with CS or signal all over the USA. i know “results may vary” depending on how, where, and when you use ANY cell phone. after trying and seeing many cell companies out there, Verizon's CDMA network can't be beat anywhere across the globe. CDMA beats every GSM network across the board in reliability and coverage.
Consumer Review
I just switched to the new verizon prepaid monthly plan with 400 anytime minutes and unlimited mobile to mobile and free night weekends.I love the phone its great I can talk a lot and not pay a lot
Consumer Review
I have a Verizon Prepaid phone. and I will admit until the new $44.99 plan (450 anytime, unlimited nights, weekends and V to V calls) came out I was paying WAY too much for my service… but I still have to get the 20 dollar unlimited messaging on top of the $44.99…. moral of the story… I love the service, but I feel like I am still paying too much
Consumer Review
Good network, but I'm tired of the hidden fees, I asked to change my billing date and the charge me 42 Dollars, I had Metro PCS and I can't wait for my contract to expired.I'll never again get Verizon!
Consumer Review
In the last few days my Verizon phones have been having signal issues.I have never had this problem before.Is there a problem with Verizon now?My phones used to be reliable,but not right now.I update my roaming capabilities and have never had a problem.Last week my phone started acting up ,both of them.Is Verizon about to crumble?I pay a great deal of money for my phones to work when I use them.This is not cutting it!
Consumer Review
Verizon is thievery company. Do not buy any prepaid phone and card from verizon
Consumer Review
I have an Alltel account and a Verizon account.The reason for the Verizon account is my son and daughter live in(2)different States and even if they call they also have Verizon,so it doesn't cost me but .99 and I can talk as long as they want. The service rep.for Verizon changed my phone over to another one,he was very knowledgeable and courteous.I've been with Alltel for 3-4 yrs.They wanted me to change for another phone but I said no.I've gotten good service from Verizon and besides they use CDMA system which was developed in the USA,the GSM sys.is an European System,and they did not let the CIA take over like the other big Company did.I'll stay with Verizon unless the rates become too high.I use Pre-Pay.
Consumer Review
Prepay monthly is a rip. Minutes don't roll over as stated in their features” section which says if you pay on time that your minutes add to the previous balance. If you call them about this you get a “sorry”.”
Consumer Review
I have been a customer of Verizon wreless since 1994. They wern't even Verizon wireless back then they were G T E mobilenet. I love there phones, there servcie and especially there network. Sure i have had a missunderstanding or two over the years but eventually always got it worked out. Verizon might be a bit expensive but they are worth it.
Consumer Review
I had a veryzon contract it was very expensive and I did't had anything like unlimited txt, internet, etc… butthe only thing I like about *verizon* is that the calling service is good almost no roming in the country
Consumer Review
I love Verizon! I had a contract plan with them a few years back and let my account go into default due to major financial problems. I remember paying more than other carriers were charging back then, but the coverage justified that for me! Fast forward to now: My credit is in the toilet, so I get me a Verizon prepaid phone plan. LOVE IT! I paid $60 for the outdated and simple Motorola V3 and love it! I put down $50 and the phone came with $10 of airtime. Got me a $20 unlimited text plan, so that leaves me with $30 of airtime. I chose the 99 cents daily plan, so that means I pay a dollar a day if I make or receive any calls plus 10 cents a minute for calls to non-Verrizon customers (unlimited to Verizon customers). I'm a big texter and not much of a talker so that means that for $60 a month I should have more than enough airtime to talk and send unlimkted text messages on what I think truly is America's most reliable wireless network! I even get coverage in my basement, and I have tested this with friends on all other networks and they get no coverage in my basement. I would love for them to come out with some new phones for their prepaid line, and maybe come out with an unlimited talk/text/data plan to compete with other prepaid providers, but I'm a believer for sure!
Consumer Review
I just wanted to comment on the fact that StraightTalk phones are as good as Verizon since the are on the same network.Just go away and eat your bologna sandwich.Yeah,clean your glasses to NERD”.Ask your mother for a tissue.I know she has some next to her bed.Do not ask me……;…I just know okay!”
Consumer Review
Put your Straight Talk reviews in the Straight Talk section. Straight Talk is an MVNO of Verizon and is not Verizon. Actually, Straight Talk is a unit of TracFone.
Consumer Review
I have been a StraightTalk customer for about 6 months now.When I first got the phone ,the service was spotty.Signal,no signal.The phone was no comparison to my Verizon phones.I liked the phone(Samsung R355c) so I renewed every due date.First 4 months same thing,spotty service.In the meantime my minutes were rolling over.I had over 4,000 minutes, 3,800 texts.Good deal,but phone sometimes worked and sometimes not.Last refill,minutes and texts were reset to 1,000 each.No big deal.I come nowhere even close to using that much.Here is the kicker”.Now my reception is great.I actually get a better signal that with my Verizon phones.I can place a call or send a text with only one bar.The places where I had signal issues in the past are now a thing of the past.If this continues I will be a customer a long time.For the price you can not beat StraightTalk.I have never had to deal with CS so I can not comment on that.Right now I am loving my StraightTalk phone.I would recommend this service to anyone.I think that the company is finally getting all the bugs worked out.You can not go wrong with the service in my opinion.I love it”
Consumer Review
I think Verizon should live up to their claim “Can you hear me now?” I purchased a Straight Talk phone with Verizon as the carrier. very bad move for Tracfone to go with Verizon. I live within 8-12 miles area in my county that has service but my area blocked out, called Verizon they say they have no plans whatsoever to add service to my area…WHAT GIVES? bad plan for Tracfone to go with Verizon
Consumer Review
perfect thing to do when you get mad is to give up. ever thought of hustling a little to get what you want. well thats what it takes. from my experiene verizon managers are allways reasonable and often discount hugely, i recieved broadband internet anywhere the technology and new phones and only had to pay the sales tax. which is great. why not try to get something out of it than giving up.
Consumer Review
We got sucked into adding me on my husband's family's plan–told it would cost $10/mo. Ended up $50 /mo. and my pho was defective, wouldn't keep charge. Bought new battery for $44, still didn't hold charge. Finally a guy at kiosk admitted pho had a programming defect and he fixed it. I've since discontinued with V.
Consumer Review
I was thinking about getting this verizon service because I live in the country- and getting a signal in the valley is hard-after reading these comments-I will stick to my virgin mobile phone,I had for about 2 years. I had the pay as you go plan-you have to top up (add money) $20.00 every 3 months or when you need minutes. My plan is 18C per minute but has long distance also. The phone is fine for everywhere but the road I live on.There are other phones and plans to pick from also.The only downside is -if you forget to add minutes when time-you won't be able to use your phone until you do and you can lose your minutes that were on there if you don't.
Consumer Review
Verizon DOES NOT charge you for the day if you text. Only if you use the cell to speak to someone who you call or if you answer if they call you.
Consumer Review
This is without a doubt the most expensive prepaid plan I've ever had. If someone sends you a text, even if you don't check it, they charge you for the entire day. The signal is fine but so was AT&T's gophone that I had before this one. I don't use a cell phone often so prepaid is best for me. I switched to the Verizon because most of my family has it and I thought it would be cheaper however it is more expensive than my previous plan and every time I turn around my account balance is low even though I add money about every 2 weeks. The Motorola phone I have works fine and has good reception. It's just too expensive for someone like me who is on a limited budget.
Consumer Review
I have a Samsung Verizon Impulse. Original battery went dead after a year, replaced with a lithium battery for Impulse but not from Vzn. It will not recharge even with a VZN charger! Must you buy one of their Batteries?
Consumer Review
DON'T USE VERIZION PREPAID. I got the phone July 8th 2010. My next payment of $44.99 was due August 8th. I paid $44 (my bill said I owed 43.26) on July 29th 2010. When I paid early they said because I did not pay the .99cents. I did not pay the full bill so I went to an ‘air-time' charge for usage, which gave me 1 hour and 40 minutes of time. The customer service rep understood the error and tried to get the manager on duty to rectify the error. Long story short, they said I had to pay again ($44.99) on August 8th. I am cancelling the account and will be posting on my web company accounts (all 2679 of them and 2.3 million readers) to post our new ‘BAN VERIZON' ads. They lost a good costumer and will loose many more.
Consumer Review
no daily access fee with BASIC prepaid–$.25/minute. no per unit break for buying airtime in bulk either. $100 on Verizon gets you 400 minutes, whereas $100 on T-Mobile gets you 1,100 minutes good for a year. that's with t-mo basic prepaid too.
Consumer Review
Verizon is expensive but it works.I have tried a few different prepaid providers and NOONE comes close to VerizonWireless.They could do a better job on rates but they are far and beyond all of the competition.I love my VerizonWireless phone.If you want reliable service and do not mind spending a little extra ,this is the service for you.
Consumer Review
Verizon's prepaid phone plans are too expensive, I am thinking about switching over the VM, which is much cheaper. They have good coverage, but it is just too expensive for me.
Consumer Review
THE MOST EXPENSIVE PHONE CO. IN THE WORLD IS VERIZON.MY BATTERY DIES EVERY 2 MONTHS AND A BATTERY IS $44.00
Consumer Review
verizon sucks where I live I can't get anything else like att or sprint without paying too much for roaming.I'd like to be able to have any carrier I want.another thing is if verizon want's to be the KING of my area so to speak!! then they need to put up more towers in the gully's so we can tell frontier to kiss our well u know!!!!!!1
Consumer Review
As of today, July 19, 2010, Verizon prepaid has launched unlimited talk/text for 49.99 in 11 states as a test market. You heard it right. Verizon prepaid is launching in 11 test markets running it until at least early September . 49.99 unlimited talk and text (no mms).
Consumer Review
Verizon PrePaid is lousy and too expensive. MetroPCS With 3 other people is about $30 to $35 each depending if you have internet connection and it is all unlimited calling and text messaging and internet usage. It does not drop that I have seen in my area. It is not in some areas but I hardly ever go to those areas. What a waste. The largest company in the business and they charge the most. They have to buy up all the competitors because of their greed. That is the only way the can force everyone to us them. What happened to the laws to protect us from usury and monopolies?
Consumer Review
i was wondering is it possible to buy a prepaid phone.Then not activate the prepaid plan but activate the phone to a verizon plan
Consumer Review
incorrect information: Verizon has BASIC prepaid with no daily access charge and anytime minutes are $.25. unfortunately you do not get a better unit rate for buying in bulk like with T-mobile where anytime minutes are only $10 when purchased in $100 block which are good for a year. Verizon by far has the largest coverage area though.
Consumer Review
very expensive, poor reception,and nasty customer service reps
Consumer Review
when it is time to refill the phone (even if it has ample credit) they notify the seldom used phone#. If you miss the refill deadline, they ABSORB the credit balance.Choose a fairer plan.
Consumer Review
What I disliked most about having a Verizon account was the poor customer service that was provided. I am much happier with Sprint.
Consumer Review
my telephone was cut off because they said i did'nt pay my bill when i no i did when i call these people they are so rude all i want is my money back in my account
Consumer Review
i love verizon pre paid because i have kids and they get the expensive things and i get what is cheap and the service is great for what i pay
Consumer Review
i love this service….the best way to set up your plan is go with the 99 cent a day plan called the core plan n what i did was add the $10 a month unlimited texting. This plan works out awesome for me anyways because 99% of the people i know have verizon. With that being said i can talk to any one on a verizon phone for as long as i want for only 99 cents and only on days i use it(any other minutes to non verizon will be 10 cents a min). With the core plan texts are 10 cents but if u get the 10$ unlimited plan u can text as much as u want n wont get charged… seriously this combo has worked out very well for me.
Consumer Review
You get what you pay for. Verizon prepaid is the REAL Verizon network and allows TRUE unlimited calling even though it costs more. There is no cap, no limit, no abuse” clause like there is with Verizon resellers like Page Plus.”
Consumer Review
When I first bought my Verizon pay as you go phone, I liked it a lot at first. Once I ran out of minutes, I just use my debit card to pay for more. Now, the bad part, I've had it almost 2 years and all of a sudden, I can't pay for minutes via the phone anymore. It gives me an error message saying my financial institution does not allow me to make this purchase. I called my bank up and they said there's absolutely no reason for it not to work. Yet, I still keep trying and it still won't let me. So, now I have to buy the refill cards at Walmart which is a hassle because I have to drive to get it.
Consumer Review
i have had this service 4 2 years itsnice but its 2 exspencive it would b cheeper 2 have a contract from vzw
Consumer Review
I called VZW customer care via *611 from my handset to inquire about the prepaid plans. I was told that there are monthly prepaid plans available for $5 more than the post-pay accounts,e.g. 450 Min/$44.95; 900 min/$64.99; and Unlimited Min/$74.99. In fact, these prices are actually less expensive because there are no taxes, fees, and VZW surcharges charged to the monthy access fee. That information is not given on the Verizon Wireless website. Walmart's Straight Talk and Page Plus Cellular are paying Verizon to operate on their network. Love them or hate them, Verizon is getting PAID anyway!!!
Consumer Review
Someone changed my Security code and Now I can't use my Visa Card to add minutes. If the Account is still in my name and I have my phone it is really ridiculous that I can't get my Security Code and Security question back where I had it in the first place.You need to chane your rules. If my other phone gets changed I will hold Verizon responsible.I am very unhappy with your Company and will tell everyone I know how I was treated.At the end of my minutes I will crush my phone and your Company will lose $ 180.00 a year. Is it worth it?
Consumer Review
My daughter who is a high school student was told at the Verizon store in Panama City, Florida that she could buy a prepaid unlimited texting plan for $20 a month without purchasing any kind of talk plan. When I went back to the same store today a different person said that you are required to purchase some time of a voice plan and can't just purchase a texting plan.
Consumer Review
I LUV MY CELL PHONE ITS THE BEST OF ALL
Consumer Review
wrong. now they have BASIC, which seems like the only really sensible prepaid option. you pay about $.25/minute. that daily access charge seems like a rip off. i had been using t-mobile for years prepaid at about $.10/minute by buying $100 time each refill. that way your minutes are good for a full year, but i can't can't get t-mo's signal here.guess what, i paid $30 for a tiny nokia verizon phone from walmart and verizon's service is excellent.
Consumer Review
i love verizon wireless prepaid phones they are hot and nice i got a texting phone it is amazing
Consumer Review
i was wondering.. if i bought the Samsung Intensity off of amazon or ebay (not the prepaid version, but there is a prepaid version for that model) could i still use the normal, not prepaid module WITH the prepaid plan?get back to me soon, Hill.
Consumer Review
I hate that every time you make a call it tells you how many minutes you have and sends a ring tone. Very aggravatig. It is easy enough to check your balance and they also send you Text messages when you are low, I have the annoying ring and message each time I make a call. I am switching to T-Mobile. They have a new $50 unlimited text and talk coming our on 5/16.
Consumer Review
i bought a verizon blitz phone about two months ago. i used it alot but never dropped or any thing. but some how my phone would not charge so i bought a new charger which was approximately $35. just too find out it was my phone it self. so if your planning on buying one.. not a smart idea. keep in mind not only did i buy one my family also did and there having the same problem as me.
Consumer Review
Pros: Great network coverage. That's all.
Consumer Review
this plan sucks really bad it works goodfor kids though
Consumer Review
i don't usually check my mins or charges with verizon, but lately i have been doing so. i found out that there's a kind of glitch in the verizon calculation of mininutes. i manually added it and even made their rep add it to see a false total, but he said theres nothing he can do that it is coming from their corporate. he said to call them and i told him the corporate office told me to go to a kiosk… i just left. i'm canceling after my contract ends. they are stealing by trick.
Consumer Review
I hate verizon. i had tmobile for a long time and never had any major problems with them. i love tmobile. i switched over to verizon and immediately regret it, verizon sucks they really don't have all that good of a reception as they say they do. tmobile has way better reception and plan. and their charges and plans are so ridiculous!!..to all of you who are planning on getting verizon for phone service i have one word for you ..RUN!!!!
Consumer Review
well guess what joanie and paul, on behalf of us alltel customers that they screwed over, im getting my fair share out of them. just as you guys mentioned about data, the same service that would cost $60 a month, i get it free. and its totally legal because i asked a customer service rep about it. oh and dont let them lie to you that the alltel phone wont work.. it will because i still use mine right now. i have it connected to my laptop as a wireless modem. i use it all day and doesnt cost me anything. whatever you do dont surrender your grandfathered alltel prepaid plan. thats what they want you to do so you wouldnt get to use their expensive network for cheap.
Consumer Review
Have been an Alltel customer for prepaid minutes for years, but today, April 17 2010, I was told that Verizon refuses to service my very recently bought prepay Alltel phone bought at an Alltel/Verizon that was going through the switch to Verizon. They will not buy back the recently purchased prepay cell phone, but insist on my buying a new Verizon phone to get activated. Plus they would re-charge us for activation, despite being activated when purchasing the new prepay phone. We were so disturbed by their lack of customer concern. How many other Alltel customers have found themselves ousted and forced into buying yet another cellphone like this? Just for service?! They have dropped all Alltel connections now and you may as well say Alltel customers! This really pi**es me off! I don't have a lot of money to waste and having an emergency cell phone is a must. Prepay was all I could afford and Alltel did a good job for me. I have twice paid #25 dollars for a ten dollar amount of time because of Verizon's underhanded way of attacking Alltel customers! Need I say, huge lawsuit? They have stuck me with a useless phone that they had no intention of servicing, and refuse to activate the phone service. It would seem that I have no recourse, and since I don't have a lot of money, you better believe that I am looking for a new phone company that will service for me! Verizon is only interested in their bottom dollar!
Consumer Review
Just to let you know, I used to be a Verizon customer with a contract. Then I found out about Page Plus Cellular. They utilize the Verizon Network but I now get unlimited minutes and text for $39.95 a month all-inclusive. The best!I compared all the plans and Page Plus Cellular gives the most for the least. Although their C/S sucks and you are on hold forever, just go online to buy new minutes. This is the way to go. Now only if their phones were nicer….
Consumer Review
verizon is so money hungry they will charge you hidden fees and then smack you with a monthly data plan you pay for even if you dont want or use it my plan total was suppose to be 120.00 pre month not seen a bill yet under 200.00 bye bye verizon
Consumer Review
I love my Straight Talk but cant seem to figure out how to get my call history online. Please help or tell me where to get help. I'm new!

Connectivity is pretty decent, but sadly the phones are LOW END SUCKY phones. Verizon pushes BIG TIME for DATA accounts, and every decent phone they have require an asinine DATA account!!!
Consumer Review
I think verizonwireless has its ups an downs as far as the service go! Every time Ilook up I'm out of minutes.Whats the plan to have more minutes.Waite for promoe codes! Or go virginmobile.
Consumer Review
Thought this was a pay as you go phone. If you don't pay, they deactivate your phone. Took my $15.00, added it to my previous balance,told me it would be good until the end of the next month. Not true. You may as well get a regular plan.
Consumer Review
Verizon Wireless has no competition.These other cheap prepaid cellular providers may claim to have hold of the VW network to get their service.To a degree it is true,but each and everyone of them have signal issues…so called dead zones.I have never got this from a VW prepaid phone.Yes they may be a bit higher but you can depend on their service.Leave these small time “players alone and go with VW.They are dependable.”

Verizon supplies their fantastic coverage to the Prepaid Straight Talk. I get Unlimited data, minutes and messages for $45 monthly with Straight Talk.There is also a $30 monthly plan with 1000 minutes, messages and 30mb data.
Consumer Review
I like Verizon because they have decent, reliable coverage, but the minutes get used up very fast. You get the option of the basic prepaid plan, which is $0.25/min. and $0.20/text message. As you can imagine, that would not last you long unless you're one of those people who only use their cell strictly for emergency reasons. Otherwise, you get to choose from the Core plan, the Plus plan, and the Unlimited Plan. With the INpulse Core plan, text messages are 10 cents each. With the INpluse Plus plan, text messages are 5 cents each. And with the unlimited INpulse plan, text messages are just 1 cent each. Verizon also offers two text messaging bundles. The first provides unlimited mobile to mobile messaging, plus 250 out of network messages, for 10 dollars per month. The other provides unlimited messaging to any network for 20 dollars per month. International text messaging is 25 cents per message sent and 10 cents per message received. Picture messaging is also available and costs 25 cents per picture sent or received.I've rarely had problems with the service, but something that irritates me is that whenever you make a call, an automated message takes time to tell you how minutes you have left. Compared to other companies, the prices are much higher and you would probably benefit more from getting a contract then the prepaid cards. I've been buying several cards each month, which adds up. Neverthe;ess, I have to admit that I like the Unlimited texting bundle. It's your choice whether Verizon InPulse is for you, because it depends on how much you actually talk and how often you make calls. I would also like to add that the Mobile Web feature isn't what you think it is, it's kind of crappy and slow and it freezes…
Consumer Review
Beware of all the surcharges and taxes that Verizon charges you on a contract plan. RIDICULOUS!!Also they will not reimburse you for text messages that are unsolicited. I was getting porn site text messages from random people and Verizon's customer service argued with me that I had to pay for them anyway. It came to $1.00 and they wouldn't take it off but gave me a headache from arguing the issue with them.WELL. I am getting the last laugh because my contract is now up and I'm switching cell phone service.
Consumer Review
Purchased International prepaid card. When we reached our destination we could not figure out how to use the card. Internet website did not exist, no pay phones would accept the card, and we could not transfer minutes to a cell phone….. recommend not purchasing the Verizon card
Consumer Review
Mystery charges ate all my minutes. Got the phone with lots of minutes good for 365 days. Seldom used it. Did not scientifically track the minutes used but firmly convinced that this has to be the most expensive pre-paid plan ever. Plus their expensive phones. Ouch.
Consumer Review
Several weeks ago I decided to see what the hype was about Verizon. I have Nextel, Sprint, and AT&T Postpaid accounts. I tried T-Mobile but had no reception where I live. My disappointment with VZWPP was first the set up. If you do it over the Air and then call your voicemail to set it (As it is encouraged) up for the first time, you will lose your daily accruement and since I did this at 10:00 pm., I lost it rather quickly. (Set it up in the morning to get more for your money) Then, while calling Verizon Customer Care, the maze has made a bad impression on me and the people seem to be rather distant to any concerns you may have. (By the way, after you chose your reason for the call, use option 4) I also decided to add $25.00 to try for another three months but wait; It is only good for 30 days. You see, with other prepaid services like AT&T, Boost Mobile, & T-Mobile, you get that amount for 90 days. (I donât use much of the prepaid minutes because I have post paid accounts. I just try them out for coverage comparison.) The VZW Web does not tell you while you are reloading how long your payment is good for until you submit the payment. (Note to newbieâs, make sure you pay $30.00 if you want your balance to last up to 90 days in case you don't use it as much. I know I don't.) Also, the coverage is less than post paid accounts and you have to see for yourself on their coverage maps. As for the coverage, I get two bars and it seems steady. Please review what I said prior to your first set up. It is best that you become acquainted with VZWPP so that you do not lose any revenue in the process. As for those who lost your pre paid savings account, begin to print your screen prior to reloading. If then you lose it for some reason due to VZWPP carelessness, you can then take them to small claims court. Keep track of everything with every prepaid and postpaid wireless carriers. Take Care!!! Todd

Verizon is my FAVORITE network, I love how awesome the coverage is and I have yet to come across a dropped call. I recently switched from my monthly contract to a prepaid plan called Straight Talk which is still on the Verizon network and I couldn't be more impressed. Walmart sells this plan exclusively nationwide so its a great price! I use the $45 Unlimited texts/calls plan and it is the best 🙂 If you are looking to save money the smart way and still have a great deal, I highly reccommend Straight Talk!

Verizon wireless is what we have now, but they seriously need to come up with some new prepaid plans. Even if they are a bit more than the other UNLIMITED plans by Boost Mobile or Cricket their service would be worth the extra charge. I love Verizon, but want better plans, UNLIMITED text, talk and web would sell me at $75. per month.

Verizon prepaid is coming out with new Monthly plans in addition to its' daily/paygo plans. There are three of them. 450 anytime minutes/nights/weekends/m2m for 44.99, 900 anytime minutes/nights/weekends/m2m for 64.99 and unlimited talk for 74.99. Still pricey but the $74.99 unlimited talk plan, for example, is $45 less then using their 3.99 unlimited talk plan every day for 30 days. A big relative savings.

hubby has verison phone which was a prepaid alltel we used the phone number to get a att phone today i want to keep using the old alltel plan but because he took the phone number i would have to go to the verizon plan what a crock of crap looks like a rip off to charge you for using your phone that day we had 39.99 400 days 2000 night and weekends and now a good phone that will now be another phone put in the cardboard box for storage.

My daughter recently had her minutes stolen from her prepaid account. Please be aware of this. It has happen to my mother and my client's mother. Verizon stated it is nothing they can do. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS. They try to say my daughter gave her passcode to someone, but my daughter did not know her passcode I!!! set up the account. So who is doing this? Verizon?

The service area on my verizon phone sucks.one of my buds has a verizon service plan and he has service everywhere.I have the prepay and i get service except my phone is always on roaming so i cant make calls and can only recieve texts.whats the logic in that.

I had a Boost mobile phone for many months and it was USELESS. Couldn't send international texts or local texts. Making phone calls was a nightmare, as the person on the other end couldn't hear me due to loss of signal all the time! soo frustrating. Then i bought a prepaid Verizon phone and wow! what a difference!!I can now text internationally and get a signal every time i use the phone. I'm VERY happy!! Everything is PERFECT!! Verizon is the BEST!!

I know someone who was on an airplane with their phone turned off…Verizon charged them for a 20 min. call they supposedly received on the plane. They were completely unwilling to do anything about it. Often, his account will just randomly be charged $4.00 or $5.00, etc for calls he never even makes or receives….DO NOT USE VERIZON WIRELESS PREPAID THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF!!

I have both verizon prepaid and straight talk and i drive a 18 wheeler all over the 48 states and i can say that my verizon phone has never droped a call or gone into roam it has had the best reseption out of the outhers i have had alltell boost tmobel and i have been where they could not get out but with my verizon and straight talk i am able to call and recive on both of them and have not had any problums oh yea just to let you know even when i was down to 11 cents i was still abel to text adn get texts no one else can make that statement about there phone . so if you really need a phone that works get a verizon and you wouldnt have to be with out in a time of need.

I FOUND A BETTER DEAL. I'm looking for thrift in these challenging economic times. According to Consumer Reports Magazine the top carrier continues to be Verizon. But Verizon has a secret many of you don't know. It sublets its network to the best prepaid cell phone company in the US.

I now dislike Verizon prepaid service because you pay over $100 a month to have service especially when you have several companies whose unlimited everything plans range from $40 – $50/a month especially when one of the companies is using the verizon network. I think Verizon needs to reconsider the plans since most people use their phones everyday.

I LOVE the Verizon network! It has the best coverage and I never have any dropped calls. I recently switched to Straight Talk which is a prepaid plan on the Verizon network and it has saved me tons. $45 for Unlimited texts and calls, could it get any better?!
