Amazing prices for sure - but just be aware that Total is QCI 9 / lowest priority on the Verizon towers. Don't expect to get usable data service when you're in any sort of crowd (except maybe in areas with good 5G UW coverage).
you lose the 50% discount. it'll double
Why is this discounted $25 or $30 per month on Total better than the regular Visible and Visible+ plans of $25 and $35 per month?

Does Total have a higher network priority than Visible?

I pay $25 per line on two lines with visible and one is $20 (don't know why, but I am not going to ask). Works very well for me and is it is a flat rate and will remain this way. Don't know why folks think this is a hot deal. I am very happy with visible where I live. One line is our internet.

Note: as others mentioned, I also got many phones free when they first launched.
Most likely you were on the older plan before they revamped it. I have the older visible+ for $35 a month buy have to pay an extra $5 for Apple watch line. Still cheaper than the new $45 a month for the new visible+ and free Watch line.

They were doing $5 off awhile ago for a short time like 3 to 6 months I think, and then a line $5 off for 2 years.

They're trying to get all the frustrated T-Mobile users who recently had a $5 price increase per line.
Yeah, what the hell is up with that? I believed our rate was protected after all these years on the same plan.

No, esim for iPhone 12 and up. Samsung s24 and up

Sim for everything else
Why esim? So carriers can charge us and we can't swap sims as easily?

Their "rate lock guarantee" was "If we change your rate, and you don't like it, we will refund the difference if you leave us within a month" How generous.

Best deal I've seen in a while. 50% off when you Bring Your Own Device. It's good on all plans but I'll give you the breakdown on the best plan that includes Ultra Wide Band 5G.

1 Line = Normally $60.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months $30.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months with Autotpay $27.50

2 Lines= Normally $90.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months $45.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months with Autotpay $42.50

3 Lines= Normally $115.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months $57.50
BYOD 50% off for 12 months with Autotpay $55.00

4 Lines= Normally $130.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months $65
BYOD 50% off for 12 months with Autotpay $62.50

5 Lines= Normally $145.00
BYOD 50% off for 12 months $72.50
BYOD 50% off for 12 months with Autotpay $70.00

Again, it's good on $50/$60 unlimited plans I'm just showing the $60 plan w/free Disney, $10 international calling, and Ulta Wide Band 5G.

I had a big issues trying to activate my 4 lines thru the site. It didn't let me activate 4 esims. Tried multiple ways and even called. Sales does not offer the 50% discount, it's only available online. Here are the steps that worked for me:

1. from the main page choose ACTIVATE from the top of the page
2. go thru the steps picking esim/or sim card.
3. choose the single line plan you want for the 1st phone.
4. continue and activate the 1st phone on a single line plan
5. once 1 line is activated create an online account
6. from your account menu select Manage Lines and then Add A Line
7. I was able to add 2 more lines this way and then got an error. I had to call customer care to activate the last line 866-663-3633

My total bill with taxes for 4 lines on the $60 plan is $61.38 in Texas. See screenshot

http://totalbyverizon.com
I thought that "BYOD 50% off for 12 months $65" means for the whole yr you pay $65 for 4 lines - but from the website per month. Other thing is after 12month, price will double!

I am on a 3GB shared data among 4 lines with Xfinity - will I get it cheaper anywhere else?

This is an obvious scam. The real deal is to sign up for 36 month financing or just choose an MVNO

The company clearly only cares about predatory billing & hasn't learned from the $1,000,000 fine by the FCC

VerizonTM has lied for 20 years, don't trust them they can't even produce a secure router let alone an "unlimited" plan

only way is to not be loyal to any company as all of them do not care and will back-stab you.
thus keep swapping plans.

I rather just keep doing new MVNO every 3 months.

Visible has 15 for 3 month unlimited 50 gb plan right now also owned by verizon.
Mint that got bought by T-Mobile has the same rotate them.

Iphones? I have the nord n30 camera isn't as good as pixel but gets the job done for what I need. I may pick up some phones on blackfriday depending on deals issued.

no real good deals. I am down to 1 line now from 5 with deals last few years when they issued BYOD cash back free phone deals b4. now I see it as a desert of trash worthless deals. while all the phone manufacturers jack prices up and increase taxes killing the deal the bare min you will pay on iPhones will be 100 dollars in taxes alone as some states they charge by msrp instead of purchase price. thus destroying any savings you may think you get with a trade in or signup bonus.

better to have them slash prices up front as a result.

Thanks but I use little data - Xfinity by gig shared is still cheaper - am I missing something?
