The thought that Verizon is taking away the very plans that their customers are demanding and their competitors are giving is crazy. Verizon is well aware that their customers are unhappy as you can see by the damage control on these forums. At every turn they are closing and deleting posts and discussions that are addressing this travesty. My family, just like many others I have heard from, will be switching to a carrier with an unlimited data plan when our contracts are up. I will be sad to leave Verizon after all these years.

If Verizon brought back unlimited the network would be slow and you be back here complaining about that. Try studying up on how things work then come back here and complain. These other companies offer "unlimited" data not unlimited data and you should know this. Frankly you and all the unlimited data people are doing Verizon and the rest of it's customers a favor by leaving. You realize your phones have this thing called wi-fi?

Sprint already has plenty of complaints about how slow it's network is. And they barely have any 4G out there. Just wait until they have 4G everywhere and they get more customers like you that want to max out their connections.

Sprint's "unlimited data" plan fine print

Everything Data Plan:  Includes $10 Premium Data add-on for smartphones (no discounts apply). Sprint Mobile Hotspot (MHS): Optional $19.99 or $49.99 add-on to allow your tablet or compatible phone to provide data usage for other Wi-Fi enabled devices. No discounts apply. Connectivity dependent upon compatibility and speeds may vary.  Includes either 2GB or 6GB of on-network data usage with additional data charges of $0.05/MB. 100 MB or 300 MB off-network data limit is combination of tablet/phone and hotspot usage. Additional off-network data charges for tablets is $0.25/MB. Sprint reserves the right, without notice, to deny, terminate, modify, disconnect or suspend service if off-network roaming usage in a month exceeds (1) voice: 800 minutes. or a majority of minutes; or (2) data: 300 MBs or a majority of KBs.

Ok so you are going to have to pay $10 extra PER smartphone on top of the advertised price. You are going to have to pay a minimum of $20 if you want to use hotspot then you only get 2 GB for that $20. And you're limited to 300 MB a month if you are outside a Sprint area. Not to mention you're speeed is limited to a max of 256 kbps. Not to mention not many Sprint areas have 4G so you'll be limited to 3G speeds. Sounds wonderful. Enjoy.
