In my experience, Verizon has sold a shitload of iPhone 4′s the past few months.

Blame Apple? I thank Apple for it, because it results in faster LTE speeds for me (for the time being).

What’s the point when any new customer reaches data limit in 20 minutes?

Nah. Trust me…I work with the mobile phone public, and I can assure you that the majority of iPhone owners have no clue how to use their devices at all. They barely understand that their phone can access the internet, they have no idea what” data” means, and they certainly do not tether. The typical account I see has iPhone data usage at about. 5 GB/mo.

No, the FCC did not fine them for blocking tethering apps. The Block C rules allow tethering on tiered plans, which is why they include that in their tiered plans. The FCC got on them about blocking apps, not tethering apps specifically. It has been posted many times that unlimited plans are not covered for tethering.

the FCC already fined Verizon for not letting people use tethering apps a while ago.. I still have my grandfathered unlimited data I never get overcharged.

Because their TOS that you agreed to says that it’s unlimited for your one device. They would not and did not offer unlimited for as many devices as you could tether.

I’m a heavy data user!! I’m always on my phone: emailing,gps, I tether a lot because the internet at school is crap & same with my home service plus why not use my unlimited data if I have unlimited data!?

28 gigs is a lot. Unlimited data is for phone use, not everything that you can tether to it. I do tether, but only small amounts if I need to pull out the laptop, which rarely happens. I use less than 1GB tethering. Using 28 gigs on mostly tethered devices is out of control. Usage like that is why they are ditching unlimited. People like you abuse it. Again, unlimited was for on that one device only. If you used 28 gigs on your phone, then my point would be moot.

They throttle high data users Verizon reps have confirmed it many times. The network is not slowing down… the network is slowing you down on purpose
