Conceivably, if 5G increased network capacity and lowered operating costs, Verizon could charge consumers less per GB. Usage costs are tied, at least somewhat, to their operating costs and their supply of network capacity.
And even if the cost were the same, why would you rather pay for a slow GB than a fast GB?
Why don't you switch to a company with an unlimited plan, if you don't like paying per GB? Sure, they'll throttle you after you use some number of GBs, but it's still probably a better alternative if you don't like paying per GB.
- kylec 7y agoI pay for a slow GB. I’m on the AT&T “Unlimited Choice” plan, which is capped at 3Mbps, because slower internet the whole month is better than fast internet for part of the month, then hitting the cap and getting throttled to 128Kbps. 3Mbps is perfectly usable, 128Kbps is not.
- oceanghost 7y agoThe reason that I don't switch is because, Verizon is the only provider I have used that works all the time, everywhere I go, and that's important to me. The only time I can remember it not working was on the California coast near Big Sur, even then, I was able to get a text out.
