For those with unlimited data plans that prevent us from upgrading our phones without a plan change the workaround of using the upgrade on another phone on the plan and then moving the equipment to your number has changed.
Beginning 8/26/2014 Verizon now requires the number being upgraded to continue paying the 4G data rate for 24 months irregardless of the phone attached to that number. For us that means I upgraded Sue's text phone to a Samsung S5, moved the new phone to my number, reattached the text phone to her number but now had two data charges, one on my number and one on hers for her non-smartphone LG.
The Samsung goes back tomorrow!
