Just got my Verizon bill, shows a rate increase for my MiFi from $59.95 to $79.95. I have a grandfathered unlimited plan. This is a 33% increase??? Anyone else experience this same price gouging??? If so is there anything that can be done to lower the cost short of giving up some functionality or going to another provider?

Usually telling them to discontinue the service works.I am letting mine go when the contract is up, I can use my phone as a mobile hot-spot and it will serve my needs. If you have an I-phone it will kick off when a call comes in, but an Android phone will take voice calls and will also do wireless at the same time.

This is phase III of a $20 price increase on Unlimited Data Plans that Verizon started last year. From what I've read on other forums, everyone that has received this notice is out of contract.

I had the grandfathered $30/mo Verizon Unlimited Data Plan on my cell phone and ditched it when Verizon raised the price to $50 last year. It's cheaper for me to buy additional gigs as needed than paying $600 a year to keep the unlimited plan.
