Competition is always good for customers and looks like iPhone users are going to soon benefit from it with the launch of CDMA iPhone on Verizon’s network.The Verizon iPhone 4 pricing details that were briefly revealed by Apple today confirmed that Verizon will be offering unlimited data plans to its iPhone customers. Associated Press has just reported that the news of the unlimited data plans is putting a lot of pressure on AT&T and it is quietly giving some of its iPhone customers the option to switch to unlimited data plan to stop them from switching to Verizon.AT&T is apparently allowing customers who were initially on the unlimited data plans but switched to the limited plans when AT&T started offering it back in June 2010 to switch back to the unlimited data plan.Earlier, these customers were told they can’t switch back to the unlimited data plans once they had switched to the limited data plan.Associated Press reports:Verizon Wireless will start offering the iPhone on Feb. 10 with a draw that AT&T no longer offers to new subscribers: a plan with unlimited data usage. But The Associated Press has learned that some AT&T iPhone users on limited plans won't need to move to Verizon for unlimited data.In an unadvertised loophole, AT&T Inc. has allowed subscribers who have had an unlimited data plan in the past to switch back. That includes anyone who had an iPhone before June, when the limited plans took effect.So now you know what to do if you plan to stick with AT&T but want the unlimited data plan. We think instead of doing this secretly, AT&T should announce the unlimited data plans for its iPhone customers to avoid losing customer who won't even bother negotiating with AT&T's customer service and will simply switch to Verizon.If you have managed to switch back to the unlimited data plan then please let us know in the comments section below.[via WSJ]TweetShareRelated PostsVerizon To Offer Unlimited Data Plan To iPhone CustomersVerizon Will Offer Unlimited Data Plans To iPhone Customers To Take On AT&TAT&T Slashes Rates for iPhone Customers – Unlimited Voice And Data Plan For $99.99AT&T Kills Unlimited Data Plans For iPad; Replaces It With 2GB PlanAT&T Announces New Data Plans And iPhone Tethering; Kills Unlimited Data PlansPosted by iPhoneHacks on January 26, 2011 in CDMA iPhone, Carriers, GSM iPhone, Verizon iPhone, iPhone News, iPhone Rumors | Permalink|Comments (27) Comments

Someone said... I think that AT&T is going to have to do a little more than offer the unlimited plan again to keep people from jumping ship. Perhaps undercutting Verizon’s data plans a bit and making tethering/hotspot cheaper to use and not charge for extra data… after all, why do we need to pay for data several times. Let us have it and use it as we see fit…

Jason said... AT&T is NEVER the leader in price cuts. As a matter of fact at MOST they’ll follow suit. If verizon says $20 they might go $20 but never lower. Lessin’ T-Mobile does. Like with the 4g and everything else.

K said... Yes, confirmed! My brother-in-law ordered online yesterday, even have additional 28% discount off $30 unlimited data. But when he called in to upgrade his expired contract (was on iphone 2G, $20 unlimited data plan), the rep said there is no more unlimited data plan, so I guess, you need to either order online or tell them you going to jump to Verizon.
January 26, 2011 at 8:43 PM Reply Someone said... You should not have to do that. They are going to try to get you to switch plans but all you need to do it tell them that you want to keep things as they are. That is what I did when I got mine even though they tried like hell to tell me otherwise 
Dreday76 said... well ijus upgrade my wife contract and she had an iphone 4 but now she have a Blackberry Torch i didnt have to change her data plan and fact they told me it will not change unless she drop below a smartphone.

xero14 said... when i got the iphone 4 they told me i could keep the unlimited plan i had. i think i did say i was going to tmobile otherwise though.

dc said... I upgrade online and they offered me to keep the same plan with iPhone 4, so I did not have to worry about dealing with them.

val said... So what if you have the (total scam) tethering plan? Since you HAD to switch to one of the capped plans to be able to use tethering. Not that I actually use it since the whole plan is a scam anyway…
January 26, 2011 at 9:44 PM Reply Jason said... Well apparently its an extra $20 on top of whatever the data plan was. I have the iphone plan that was 30 data+multimedia unlimited = $50 for data. That doesn’t even include voice mins yet LMAO.

Manny said... Damn so since I got the iPhone in July there’s no chance of me getting the unlimited data plan?

HCWHunter said... Apparently there is a method to use an iPhone 2G to get unlimited data on your new line/account then switch out the sim card or cut it down to fit the iP4.

FredMc said... If they want to be competitive, drop the insanely overpriced text messaging plans to $5 unlimited.

Chris said... Screw ATT. If they wanted (cared) about their customers they woul’ve offered this long ago. This proves that ATT is run by greedy gnomes that just care about high profits rather than building a relationship with their customers for long-term. I’m glad ATT’s reign over the iphone is over. I myself can’t wait to hop over to Verizon and forget about the nightmare that is ATT.

J.T. said... Success!!!!
Waited on hold for about 30 minutes while the operator discussed it with her supervisor. When she came back on the line she said the supervisor said it could not be done. Then I asked her why this was all over the news and indicated I’d be going with Verizon so she went to another supervisor who finally approved it. If you want this plan back, be persistent.

Terek said... Just to clarify, If I had the unlimited data plan before I down graded and now I wanted it back, will I have to pay extra to switch over to the unlimited plan or its a free upgrade since Verizon is giving is offering the unlimited plan?

Atlanta Roofing said... I don’t think it will stop people from going to Verizon especially if they have bad network coverage…as many people are just frustrated with AT&T
they should concentrate on making their network better and not on things like this…

fas said... They might offer data plans but that cannot change the fact that ATTs network is really poor.
January 27, 2011 at 9:56 AM Reply Lee said... JD power and Associates ranked ATT’s customer service the poorest among all for a reason. Even as of today, they’re living up to that reputation. I’m dumping them ASAP.

Northstar said... I hope att gets severely impacted after verizon’s existence. That’ll teach them. They have been screwing us customers with their poor network. iPhone is way too far ahead of their current network capabilities!!

agrambo said... I have 2 iphone 4G lines (one is my daughters) I had switched mine to the 2gig in November and left hers as the unlimited. I just called to have them switched so I have the unlimited and she the 2gig and they did it for me. Took about 20 minutes on the phone but no big hassle.
