Are there unadvertised plans?

I'm on a 2400 minute AC plan for $149/mo. Call CS about problem turning off
my i600. At the end of the call the agent said that it looks like he could
upgrade me to 3000 minutes per month for same cost and that it wold not
reset my plan date. I ask if there is any down-side for me in accepting this
and he say's no changes other than the minutes available. I see no mention
of such a plan on their web site. How/why did this happen? Am I looking a
proverbial gift horse in the moutn bringing this up?

The OP said CS told him the change would not extend his contract. I have
never heard of that. My friend just had a similar experience where CS said
he could get more minutes for the same price but it added a year to his
contract.

I believe you can change the amount of minutes up or down within your
plan without extending your contract. It's when you change promotional
features your contract is extended. They consider it a new contract.

So you're saying one cannot get the $34.99 plan if it does not show up
within my zip code?

These revised AC plan have not shown up in my markert either SE
Atlanta GA 30303 which is very surprising since Atlant is one of the
top 10 markets and Cingular's home base .

The dr offers to Cary: "it depends". I thought the $34.99 AC300 was a
national offering and your zip code and agent offerings may vary. Give
Customer Service a call, and ask, as VZW is the final authority. If it is
offered in your area (hoping it is) then you should be able to get it!
Otherwise, Verizon plans can be a mystery; and may vary by region. Get the
most minutes for the lowest price, and enjoy the best of Verizon Wireless...
