I just called Verizon and got to their customer retention team saying I'd like to explore options on discounts since I'm also looking at going to T-Mobile.
They gave me a lifetime $25 discount + $10 discount per line for the next 12 months and I can call back after 12 months to extend basically ask for that discount again.
Now I'm a Verizon customer of 16 years and it is the week of thanksgiving aka black friday and cyber monday so they may pull extra strings.
I also think I am overpaying so maybe they gave me discounts to get to an average of what people are paying. I was paying $135 for 2 lines, now I'm at $90.
Take this as you wish but this is just my experience today the Monday before thanksgiving.

I also switched over to the new Unlimited Welcome plan since it was about $9 less than the old discontinued plan now that the $10/line stopped and the $10 paperless/auto went down to $5 and also charging $3 for being in the old plan. So for 6 lines it's $27/line now. Oh and they're taking $20 off for 55+ for the account.
I'll try to call retention and see if they can do the $10 off/line for a year again, and $25 off lifetime.

You can also do it on desktop by going to a similar link. Either way, you'll immediately see a "Special Offers" bubble just by going to the port-out page (if you get a message in the special offers bubble that doesn't say get $10 off, just click the link again until it shows that offer then accept and redeem it).

Speaking to your other issue, I've had that happen. I've never been able to have them successfully revert back to old plan, but was only able to get a monthly credit for a year. It was someone ago I can't remember how much it was
