The statement also includes that the customers are to see that drastic higher price on their bills from 15 November 2015.
"Some of those folks in the 1 percent that are on unlimited plans, they could save money if they switched to one of the new Verizon plans, based on their usage," and this is to be done in order to maintain a high-quality network, as traditional text and voice services are not worthy to be taken in care.
