Verizon recently announced that starting on June 3rd, there will be a price increase for cellular service on Apple Watch and other cellular-enabled timepieces. The monthly cost will go up by 50%, from $10 to $15. However, customers with discounts, such as the 50% off promotion for those on Unlimited Plus and Ultimate plans, will still benefit from the promotional discount.
In an email sent to customers, Verizon explained that the price hike is necessary to continue improving their industry-leading network and services. The updated plans will now include unlimited calling, texting, and data to, from, and within Canada and Mexico.
Key points to note about the price increase:
– Price of select Smartwatch data plans will change as of June 3rd, 2024.
– All watch plans offer the freedom to stay connected.
– Unlimited plans using number share now include unlimited calling, texting, and data for Canada and Mexico.
If you’re concerned about the price hike, consider switching to Verizon’s Visible pre-paid service. With everything managed through the Visible app and access to Verizon’s 4G and 5G network, Visible+ plan costs $45 per line with smartwatch service included at no extra charge.
Overall, while there is a price increase for smartwatch plans on Verizon starting in June, customers can still enjoy quality service with added benefits like unlimited calling and texting to Canada and Mexico. If you prefer an alternative option without additional costs for smartwatch service, consider switching to Visible’s pre-paid plan for a seamless experience through their app.
