UPDATE
We have a chart confirming Verizon Wireless’s new Tiered Data Plans thanks to an anonymous tipster. See the chart below.
Keep in mind that if customers go over the 150 MB allowance by 1 MB or 100 MB, the additional charge is a flat $15 for another 150 MB. If customers might go over, even by a little, the $29.99 unlimited package is a better option.
END OF UPDATE
