    Verizon CFO says Tiered Data Plans starting this summer?


    Speaking at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference this afternoon, Verizon CFO Fran Shammo told investors that his company plans to move to tiered data plans in the near future.

    I wonder if our unlimited plans are in jeopardy here? This is a drag and I blame the people that're abusing the system!

    I'm sure Steve will move this to news, it's a newsworthy story!

    Yea that's why I just laughed everytime I heard folks say that they couldn't wait for 4G service, so they could tether all their home computers to it and get rid of their broadband ISP to save money... Hopefully we'll be grandfathered in, but at contract renewal time it will be like "How much data do you want? 1, 3 or 5Gb's? After 5Gb the extra charges start to accrue just like on the laptop data plans ...

    (Swyped on the go..)

    Where my time is spent away from the office!

    I blame the iPhone people. This has nothing to do with my 13gb per month use....

    I would think we would be grandfathered in...AT&T grandfathered their existing customers.

    Wouldn't it be nice if Verizon cared what we think

    @John - Has no one ever "lied" to you before ? I don't mean she was intentionally fibbing you, but I've seen corporations change "Policy" overnight regardless of their previous stated policy
