Ahhhhhh!!!! VZW Support did say unlimited data would be grandfathered over to the 4G IPhone. But, I tweeted them. And he wrote back saying you can only keep unlimited data if you pay the full retail price. I'm thinking twice about upgrading to the iPhone 5 now.

These carriers are such greedy bastards. AT&T doesn't want FaceTime over cellular and Verizon with paying full price to keep your data plan are complete jokes. It's too bad Sprint sucks so bad here or I'd give the iPhone 5 a try on their network.
Yes this has been the case since they released the new plans a couple months ago right before the galaxy s3 came out. Only way to keep unlimited is to pay full retail. Any upgrades used will result in needing to choose a new plan.
ICAM! I don't think Sprint OR AT&T works here, so I'm stuck. If I upgrade to the iPhone 5, I have to watch data very closesly. Gonna be difficult. Hate greedy people!
Did you have issues with your white Iphone? Im not sure which color I want but I heard that wear and tear is more visible on the white one. What do you think??
I know some of you guys have pointed out but they've already pushed back shipping to 2 weeks after a couple hours. Wow. Just wow. I wonder if this just astronomical sales, real supply shortage or possible even Apple making sure they have the most available for in store release so they can continue to generate those long lines. Probably a combination of all, but wow.
Just as an FYI, this isn't something very new. It was announced shortly after Verizon announced the new plans a couple months ago. I don't like it either but just want to let you know that they're trying to get everyone to switch off unlimited and it's been the policy for a couple months now. Good luck with whatever you decide to do
Wow Verizon ..pay full price to keep unlimited plan? That is soooo whack.
In regards to VZW, I'll tell everyone who is giving up unlimited to be very careful with LTE. You can chew through gigs of data INCREDIBLY EASY and FAST. People, like me, without access to wifi should not give up unlimited just to get a phone. I'd suggest saving up and buying at full price, but that is just my opinion. Now if you KNOW you are a light data user and losing unlimited wouldnt hurt you, despite going to LTE, do what you do This is mainly for us VZW users who have to either give up unlimited or pay full retail. I'll be paying full retail from here on.
