So upgrade is coming along near the end of October. I was wondering I share a unlimited talk and text, plus Web with the family. When I get an upgrade do I have to pay full retail for the phone if I want to still have the unlimited plan? And it's isn't just me on the plan it is 3 others.

Yes you have to pay full retail or buy from craigslist or eBay.

Another option may be going with prepaid. I read an article (somewhere online) the other day that made a good case for prepaid. There are some limitations but it can be quite a bit cheaper in the long run.

Your plan will change to the new shares plan. They will try and convince you to change the whole family because this is what you will have to dish out...
1)30$ upgrade fee for smart phones. No way around this
2)the line access fee which is like 40 for smart phones
3) the actual plan. 70 I think is the cheapest.
So for you to upgrade it will be 110/month for YOU on top of your families plan. They will use that to try and get you all to convert.
Please correct. Me if im wrong someone. I had to translate everything to my mom a few days ago and that was the best I could decipher from Verizon's cryptic explanations.

The problem is when VoLTE hits in a year or so, then all you talking and text will go against you 6gb of data. These plans may save some people money now but they won't in the long run.Basically with 3 smart phones with 6GB of data and unlim talk text it is about $240 a month for my family. There is an additional $10 line for one of the not smart phones on the plan as well. It was about the same price as before for us.

Should I pay full retail? Or should I switch up the plans. My bill ever month is like 325$.

Buy off craigslist or eBay. That's just my opinion though.

So I should keep the unlimited plan?

And will it cost a lot of money to switch plans so I can get my upgrade at a discount?

Yes and yes.

How much would it cost? Because I really want the discount. A phone that is 600$ would be 250 with discount.

Look at post 8 and you can get an idea.

Figure out how much data you use. It won't necessarily cost you more money. Unlimited talk/text+2gb data=$60/month
