Whst’s ironic about mid-band 5G is that the infrastructure is not just higher performing than 4G but cheaper to build out and run.
Carriers could realize large gains by switching customers from 4G to 5G for free, but the way they think, 5G has to be a pricey add-odd that reduce customer take-up and keep the carriers running more expensive 4G networks.
No Hotspot data? What monsters. No mmwave 5g except for the $80/mo plan? This just makes your network inefficient underutized & worse!
I am on a grandfathered plan & almost everything Verizon has done in the past decade plus makes me hate this company more. What a bunch of wankers.
I wish we had a comparison versus the old plan structure. It feels like there was a much better range of opting in to capabilities. But now you just have to pay absurd amounts to get basics. It makes me clutch to my grandfathered unlimited plan. "Pray we do not alter the plans further." Monsters.
