Eugene while that thread title is amazing, if you aren’t ging to maintain the OP and keep it updated with all the info, you should let someone else have it.

Verizon to Kill Grandfathered Unlimited Data Plans. This Is Bullshit.

Verizon to Kill Grandfathered Unlimited Data Plans. This Is Bullshit.

---

Unlimited data on Verizon is dead. The death rattle just wheezed out during Verizon Communications CFO Fran Shammo’s dream-killing presentation at the JP Morgan Technology, Media and Telecom conference. Everyone with a grandfathered unlimited data plan will be forced to switch to a tiered plan when they upgrade to LTE. It’s absurd, warrantless, and sadly, typically, aggressively anti-consumer.

Killing unlimited—especially grandfathered plans—was always going to piss off, well, everyone, but Verizon thinks it has a good reason. “Everyone will be on data share,” Shammo said. All customers will be forced onto Verizon’s new shared data plans once their upgrade cycle comes around, which are in theory easier to manage for multi-device families. Except that doesn’t really pass the smell test.

[Squabbler]

uh…welp
http://gizmodo.com/5910903/verizon-planning-to-kill-grandfathered-unlimited-data-plans-when-you-upgrade-to-lte-this-is-bullshit

That’s weird b/c I just got an email today from Verizon telling me I get $100 free off a phone (time to upgrade to LTE) and this is quoted DIRECTLY from the email:

Keep your unlimited data package when you move to a 4G LTE smartphone!

[Storyteller]

Taken directly from the transcript I linked, you’ll get to keep your unlimited until your contract is up, but after that, no go

But then as we come out with the data share plan, quite honestly, when we do that, we are going to have to change the metric in the industry.
And we are going to have to go to an account, if you will, a revenue per account. It really won’t be a revenue per customer anymore because if you
think about the number of devices that will be added to these accounts, it really won’t be important anymore what the revenue per customer is;
it is going to be revenue per account.
So as we come out and launch this, we will have to enter a new metric into the industry called revenue per account and as our customers start to
migrate, which will take a fairly decent long time to migrate because of the difference of this plan, we will start to probably go away from revenue
per customer over time and really concentrate on that revenue per account.

And the important part of that is we want the connections to come in and the way we have designed our plan, this plan is built on tiers and as we
look at the future growth of LTE consumption because of the speeds and video consumption and consumption of other M2M-type devices, it is
going to be more important that people will start to upgrade in their tiers as they start to really realize the benefits of the LTE network.
So two things here. One is I think revenue ARPU will continue to grow as we get into data share plans and people start to connect more devices as
my pad example. And then over the future time, as they add more devices, they are going to have to buy up into tiers. So again, you will see the
revenue increase there.

…Well, the way we have designed this and of course, it is paper, not actual and we will see how this comes out, but the way we have designed this
is we really shouldn’t see a short-term decline. And really the theory behind this is LTE is our anchor point for data share. So as you come through
an upgrade cycle and you upgrade in the future, you will have to go onto the data share plan. And moving away from, if you will, the unlimited
world and moving everybody into a tiered structure data share-type plan.
So when you think about our 3G base, a lot of our 3G base is unlimited. As they start to migrate into 4G, they will have to come off of unlimited
and go into the data share plan. And that is beneficial for us for many reasons, obviously. So as you pick what tier you want to be and we think that
there will be some price up in those tiers.

This is why I have Sprint. It is absolutely 100% unlimited data. I have called and literally asked if I download movies, music, games and play or watch 24 hrs a day will I go over a limit and they said no. Sprint pretty much rocks. Now if they could only get the freaking 4G in East TN but unfortunately we have to many mountains and trees so it won’t work here.

It’s unlimited for now, Sprint isn’t exactly pulling profits left and right either.

I let Jason know this a while back, but might as well post it up (for people that actually read my posts and/or cares or something)

I will be stepping away from all fighting games but Marvel for the next few months (excluding shirt match at MBB, get hype) to focus on Diablo 3. I played Ladder and HC Ladder during Diablo 2 days, got into playing competitive for a bit too. I’ll still play if someone really wants to play, but for now my semi-limited gaming time will be devoted to kung fu kicking bitch monsters. I’ll still be running brackets and all that though for sure.

Consider this a “Semi permanent vacation”

Also, the ‘best’ glitches in this game so far, straight from a blizzard blue post:

[LEFT]Act 2 - Players who cast Town Portal while standing in a tar pit will cause the tar pit slowing debuff to stay on your character until you leave the game or manually walk into and out of a tar pit.[/LEFT]

[LEFT]Changing your account’s Parental Controls while you are in Diablo III can disconnect you from Diablo III.[/LEFT]

[LEFT]The description of the achievement “Why’d It Have To Be Snakes?” is misleading.[/LEFT]

[LEFT]Damage over time debuffs are not benefiting from items that grant crit chance.[/LEFT]

[LEFT]Game client window becomes unresponsive when a dialog box is opened in the background.[/LEFT]

[LEFT]When playing a Demon Hunter, giving a shield to your Templar before you kill Jondar and hire him can disconnect you from Battle.net.[/LEFT]

The list keeps getting bigger and bigger lol!
