Unlimited PLANS

Verizon has four unlimited plans, which each offer different benefits. You can save $10 per month, per line on any unlimited plan if you opt for automatic payments, but you have to use a debit card or checking account to get the discount.

• Start Unlimited ($80): Video streaming limited to standard definition. Mobile hot spot is not included with this plan.

• Play More Unlimited ($90): Includes 15GB of high-speed mobile hot spot usage per month. Video streaming is in HD, but at 720p rather than the full 1080p. You likely won't notice the difference on your smartphone, though. Apple music subscription is included. Data speeds may be slowed if your usage exceeds 25GB.

• Do More Unlimited ($90): Includes 15GB of high-speed mobile hot spot usage per month and you can get 50% off an unlimited plan for your tablet or connected devices. Video streaming limited to standard definition. Data speeds may slow if your usage exceeds 50GB.

• Get More Unlimited ($100): Includes 30GB of high-speed mobile hot spot usage per month. As with the Play More plan, HD video streams at 720p and an Apple Music subscription is included with the plan. Data speeds may be slowed if your usage exceeds 75GB.
