Thanks, I'll look into it.
They have. You can get a brand new iPhone for $32/month added to your bill. The LG G4, which is a year old, is like $22/month.
That route is cheaper than buying those phones unlocked.
Not to beat a dead horse, but:

That phone will knock anything in it's price range out of the park, will save you money in the long run, and I can verify it works on Verizon's network (I just bought a Nexus 6P and fucking love the shit out of it.)

Thanks for that information. I really am surprised if they have really made a turn around from their policy trend of fucking the customer for more each year, because they can. What's to stop them anyway, when only two networks really offer a clean and reliable signal at most locations?
Mr. Hanky loves you!

The pay-per-month plans (Cricket, Straight Talk, Boost Mobile) were heavily eating into their profit margins. Those carriers use the major carrier networks/infrastructure and the major carriers get a fraction of what they would get from a subscriber.
So they wisely bent to the trend. My bill, on their new plan, with my unlocked 6P, is $65/month, down from $109. I get the very best data network, the best phone available, and I am month to month, no contract.
