Verizon has the most coverage in the country and consequently has the most expensive self-implants in the country as well, but there are some budget-friendly options to consider so which Verizon cellphone plan is best for you. Is it cheaper prepaid plan, your best option or a pricier post paid plan with all the bells and whistles? That's what I'll help you figure out today? Verizon prepaid versus postpaid, if you haven't yet don't forget to turn on those notifications and subscribe, and let me know what you think of the video by commenting and liking. Now in comparing Verizon's prepaid and post paid plans, I'm going over the four piece: pricing, perks, plans and phones in each category, I'll show you which plans are better prepaid or post paid. So before we jump in, there are a few plans, I'm not covering Verizon's post paid basic plans that are just unlimited talk and text with half a gig of data and Verizon's post paid five gigabyte plans both are way too expensive for what they offer, and I would recommend any of the plans I'm going over today over those too now. First up, I'm going over pricing in pricing I'll discuss which plans? Are you guessed it cheaper without looking at multi-line or loyalty discounts? Verizon's prepaid plans are much cheaper than their postpaid counterparts. The cheapest prepaid plan is 30 compared to the cheapest post paid plan, which is 70.
Now the most expensive prepaid plan is 60 compared to 90. Now it's very easy to see. Prepaid is cheaper, but if you look at multi-line discounts or family plan discounts, Verizon post paid might be the winner for you, because Verizon prepaid doesn't have multi-line discounts, for instance, Verizon's 70 a month post paid plan turns to 35 a month when you have four lines and 30 when you have five or more, the 80 play more goes down to 45 per line with four lines along with do-more and Verizon's get more originally 90 goes down to 55 per line with four lines. Now that might sound confusing, but just take a look at the Verizon website breaks it all down for you now. The last thing to look at for price is the loyalty discount that comes with Verizon prepaid at month, 4 in month.10, you save an extra five dollars a month on your total plan cost and if you enroll in autopay, you get an additional five dollars a month in savings. So after nine months of service on month, 10 your 65 unlimited prepaid plan.
It goes down to 50 a month. Now you can see on Verizon's website that these loyalty discounts make a big difference so really quickly, prepaid doesn't have multi-line discounts, but has loyalty, discounts and postpaid doesn't have loyalty, but has multi-line discounts and by the way, current customers can switch to the prepaid plans and take advantage of the loyalty discount and get the full offer if you've been with Verizon for 10 months. Basically, you'll get the discount you qualify for, depending on how long you've already been with Verizon. Now some customers are having a problem: switching from post pay to prepaid for getting this discount, but all customers should so which is best for you for price. Now, if you're, looking for a plan for your family, I'd say, look at postpaid, you get a multi-line discount and the price rivals prepaid costs.
Now, if you're a single person go with prepaid, you can get a 15-month discount without adding multiple lines and the prepaid plans offer everything you need in a cell phone plan, so I'm going to give a full starts prepaid and no star to post paid next, I'm covering the second p for perks. Now, perks are any extras or add-ons that you don't have to pay for well kind of, because free add-ons or perks tend to come with the more expensive plans. So if we take a look at prepaid, perks, you'll see that there's not much to write on about you don't get much, but depending on the plan, you do get a mobile hotspot access free calling to Canada and Mexico along with free texting to over 200 countries. Now not one plan offers all of these perks. Verizon is a little sneaky here, offering some perks and charging for others.
For instance, the hotspot access is free with the 50 a month prepaid plan, but you don't get a separate data allotment and with the 65-month prepaid plan, you need to pay five dollars to access the mobile hotspot, but you get 10 gigabytes of data with it. So if we take a quick look at the post paid plan, perks, you'll see they blow prepaid out of the water. For instance, you get Disney plus free for one year with a with all the unlimited plans. You get apple, music, free on start more and do more. You only get it free for six months by the way, and you get 500 gigabytes of cloud storage as well, plus hotspot access with dedicated allotments and free 5g access with a compatible phone, so post paid plans win here, I'm giving a full sort of post paid and no start to prepaid for perks.
Now, I'm moving on to the third p, which is plans now, in this section I'll, be going over important plan details like data amounts and thresholds streaming, quality and foreign calling capabilities, starting with data allotments. Almost all the plans have some sort of high speed data allotment. The only plan that doesn't be the 35 a month prepaid plan which is just texting and calling now with the rest of the prepaid plans, you get five gigabytes, 15 gigabytes or unlimited data. With the 5 and 15 gigabyte plans, you have soft data caps, meaning once you use up your lot of data, your speeds will slow to 2g speeds. With the unlimited prepaid plan, you get unlimited high speed data, though your speeds may slow, when the network is congested now, with all the post paid plans, I'm comparing today you get unlimited data, though some plans offer more guaranteed high speed data than others.
Basically start has the least because it's the cheapest and get more has the most because it's the most expensive. Now, let's look at streaming quality. All plans besides play more and get more unlimited, will give you SD streaming get more and play more, will give you HD streaming. One other important feature is calling to Canada, Mexico. Almost all the plans offer free calling to both those countries from the US.
Besides the 35 and 40 a month prepaid plans and to call Canada, Mexico costs an extra five dollars a month. Now, when it comes to plan details, I'm giving the post paid plans a full star because they come out on top with better features. The prepaid will get half a star because prepaid features are awesome, just not as great as post paid. Now I'm moving on to the fourth p, which is phones when it comes to phones. Some carriers only have select phones available for post paid and prepaid services, and some carriers don't allow you to buy a phone on an installment plan with Verizon.
You can't buy a phone on an installment plan with prepaid, but you have all the same phone options as post paid customers because of that I'm giving a full start to postpaid and half a star to prepaid now. The final star count is two for prepaid and three to postpaid out of a total of four. Now, just because postpaid has more stars here doesn't mean a post paid plan is better for you than a prepaid plan. Now you should go with prepaid if you are looking for only one or two lines, because you get a killer, loyalty discount, plus an autopay discount saving you 15 months after nine months of service, you won't get that with the post pay plans. I'd also go for prepaid over post paid if you're not worried about the extra perks.
Because, honestly, those perks raise the cost of the plan, and you should go with postpaid. If those perks are something you'd like personally, the extra 500 gigabytes of dozen cloud storage would be amazing, and I don't think that's been given enough attention when they advertise these plans. To be honest, so post play plans are also great for family plans, because you do get that gnarly great multi-line discount. Now, who are you choosing Verizon, post paid or Verizon prepaid?
