The Offer
- Anybody on a Verizon Wireless military discounts (postpaid) should have received an e-mail giving them a free $5 gift card ahead of 4th of July. If you don’t see it in your e-mail, check your Verizon Up rewards and it should appear there as well.
Our Verdict
They did the same thing for Memorial day as well.
I’m honestly not a huge fan of the commercialization of things like memorial day, but I’m certainly not against military and veterans getting a free $5 Amazon gift card.
I got a $5 Home Depot card
I think most of us military members have already moved on to T-Mobile or Google Fi at this point.
Agreed
bc but it is nice to see that Verizon has launched a new Military/Veterans discount I’m guessing as a response to T-Mobile recent Military discount..
Details
You can save $40 off of 3+ Unlimted lines (basic entry level Unlimted plan).
So $120 for 4 lines plus taxes and plus fees, and no Netflix.
I would have been all over this if the past year with T-mo hadn’t had great coverage and excellent speeds. I rarely get less than 50 DL (except in some buildings i.e. Costco, some grocery stores, but no problems in HD, Lowe’s and most stores).
With T-mo we are paying $123/mo for 6 unlimted lines (55GB of data/per line before provisioning begins – $3 is for upgraded Netflix 4k plan).
T-MO also offered %50 off on Samsung flagships during military launch promo, So our EIP payments for S9+ are $12.50/mo for 24 months 0% APR and we own the phone, (it could have been $200 sweeter with Costco cash if went thru Costco for our phones).
I’m kinda hoping the T-mo/Sprint merger fails as T-mo is profitable and growing, one only needs to look at Alaska Air pre/post merger, and recent AT&T merger , already increasing fees on Wireless and DirectTV,
Now if we could “Uncarrier” Comcast and make them the “Unprovider for highspeed internet” that is of course a pipe dream. One can dream
Yeah, I know a few readers that are military still have it so thought it was worth posting still
