Does Verizon plan to get price competitive with up and coming t-mobile?

[d8gonzales]

With all this competition from t-mobile, who has cheaper pre-pay plans for services, does verizon have any plans to make their service more affordable? I love the service and the coverage but hte bills are very high for my family. I know someone with a t-mobile phone, same brand as my android. They get talk, text and internet for about $20 less per line. I prefer Verizon for the coverage and customer service but the prices are tempting. Any news that V may get monetarily competitive?

Verizon was never one to be in the competitive pricing market so it's doubtful.

With that said, they did just come out with a new data plan on the share everything and there is speculation that could lead to changes in pricing for higher tiered data plans so we can only hope

Verizon has priced their plans at a point where we're all tempted.. but we haven't actually left yet. That's exactly where they want it. The price difference isn't enough to send us running into T-Mobiles pretty pink arms. But I am tempted. Until enough people move from tempted to gone, big red's not going to change a thing.

That's like asking:

Will Honda move prices to Hyundais?

Will Sony move tv prices to LG?

Will Captain Crunch cereal change prices to the aldi brand?

And so on and so forth.

The brand speaks for itself. You get what you pay for. And people say "tempted...but havent" yet. Why debate it or ask questions on it? If you want cheaper just switch! But buyer beware....
