Stetson, As your proud mother who has watched hundreds of your videos, and never commented, this one knocks it out of the park! It is clear, visually engaging while offering valuable information to the consumer. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars - you have just upped your game. Congrats.

[Proudchristian]

I have been researching cellphone companies and please and their plans and phones for weeks now trying to make the most informed decision, And I'm about to go MAD ! I just want to say that your video has been by far the most helpful and I have learned so many new things that I have not heard before so thank you and, well done !

[makaeo]

I love this type of video as past one's where you break down definitions plans benefits numbers and features.

The best thing about Verizon 5G is that it's the only network option on my phone I can choose. I enjoy being forced to activate and then deactivate airplane mode every 3 minutes in order to get access to 4G for 30 seconds so that I can load data from a network that actually works before I have to do it again.

[aribloch]

I got an S22+ $900 off and I'm a current customer! Insane. I'm on the old Play More (which had apple music included) on a family plan. It still has ultra wideband, only downside is a lower premium data pool and lower hotspot, but I don't max out either.

Another device on my account is on the new plan so we get the Disney bundle and Play Pass

[Backflipping]

One thing to note is that Verizon does terrible against congestion. I know schools that just don’t work with Verizon at all due to congestion, while plans like AT&T work perfectly. I also have the 5G Get More plan which provides unlimited premium data, and there is still no data at some schools.

This is a great informative video Stetson! I’m glad I went to Iowa City on Wednesday and ported from T Mobile 55+ postpaid over to AT&T postpaid. I got the I Phone 13 Pro Max. AT&T has decent coverage in my small city of 7300 people! I have no regrets. I appreciate you and your channel! Mark in Iowa.

Another thing: They change your password so that it’s wrong every time you sign in, and it forces you to make a new password. This new password, even if auto-filled by my iPhone, is still incorrect and you are then forced to reset your password to something new, which- you guessed it- is incorrect again.
This is my favorite feature about Verizon ! 😊

[philliprhinehardt]

I would go with the cheaper prepaid plans.

[ormondgamer]

I live in Florida just north of Tampa area. I had Verizon this year and the service was spotty on a non 5g phone. The 5g phone we had were not much better. The data was horrible loading on all phones. Called Verizon and they said the towers were overloaded. I was paying for non prepay and had the worst signals i have ever had. These same areas had great service with our fiiends Tmobile. We switched last week to ATT and have a great signal everywhere we go and data is fast. I dont understand how Verizon keeps advertising it has great service. This guy even says Verizon had the slowest download speeds last year. Its not even loading in areas. My opinion would be go with prepay Cricket or premium ATT or Tmobile.

[ryanfraley]

Point of information, T-Mobile now has MAXup which allows T-Mobile customers to mix and match Magenta and Magenta MAX.

[ceruleansky]

I will be sticking with Verizon, ever since the C-Band deployment, my market went from good speeds from 100-200Mbps to 700+, and I use every perk on 5G Get More, with my other lines on 5G Play More. I have a military discount with Verizon as well. However, I am considering switching the other lines to US Mobile since their mobile data needs aren't nearly as high as mine. Thank you Stetson for another great video!

[chomar]

Dude, your one of my favorite YouTuber. I appreciate all the info

[jigsaw]

As an ex verizon employee, I have to say that this video is the best compilation of the data we tell you is true, but almost all of it is lies. There are NO good deals at verizon, just prepare to pay alot of money. It's the best service in the country and the fastest speeds by far, but you ABSOLUTELY WILL get boned on how much you pay. Every sales rep is a liar, and is trying to get you to purchase more than you intended to. Same rules as a car dealership. Do your research, and do not let them convince you to buy anything other than what you came for. Because you will either pay much more than you intended to in-store, or you'll end up paying thousands upon thousands more than you should have over the course of your service.

I have the prepaid $35 plan but I pay about $27 because of some discount but after watching your videos I want to try the Visible and see if that works well enough for me to be able to totally drop home internet.

[UncleMartin]

I tested the Visible wireless network and the reception was terrible in my home area, it was deprioritized and throttled. I signed up with Verizon prepaid at the mid-tier plan and was hoping the service could get better. Yet another disappointment, usually 3 bars at my current address, and when I was out driving for Uber eat, the app got a bad connection due to deprioritize. Guess what, if you feel like quitting their prepaid plan, you will lose all the account balance. I literally put $200 into the prepaid account without being told the downside of losing the balance when quitting. Should have watched all your vids before signing up with Verizon. Please do a little comparison with ATT in the year 2022. I noticed they have changed the terms of accessing their 5G network this year for different tiers. Thanks, man! Your vids really helped a lot of people.

[vincealdrin]

Hello. Can you make a review for the new prepaid plans for Verizon? Thanks in advance

[orochimaru.]

HEY just thought you could tell me more about Kroger wireless, I got a SIM card from the Ralph’s store across from my house and i was setting it up and wouldn’t let finish, also changed the apn setting and next day in the morning I had data and I didn’t even pay for a phone plan since I couldn’t get pass the imie page help FREE DATA 🤔?

[M_Hess]

What is the app that you use to see what the data speeds are? Might want to download to see what the service is like where I’m at. Thanks

[groovinthagroove]

I was with Verizon for years. I finally switched to tmobile and lasted a week. I went back to Verizon immediately. But left for good to GoogleFi.
