Monthly Prepaid FAQs

How do data packages work when payments are made? When payments aren't made?

All BlackBerry®/SmartPhone/3G Multimedia devices activated on Verizon Wireless Prepaid service require a subscription to a Monthly Prepaid Plan and a Prepaid Unlimited Email and Web for BlackBerry/Smartphones or a Prepaid Data and Web for 3G Multimedia phones data package, both of which will renew automatically on the same date every month.  If you do not have sufficient funds in your account to cover the monthly charges for your Prepaid Plan and Data package at the time of renewal, voice service will be available at the per-minute rate associated with your plan and all data services (including Multimedia Messaging, email access and web browsing) will be suspended.

A $.20/MB overage rate charge applies to 3G Multimedia phone users that exceed the $10/25 MB data allowance before reaching their monthly renewal date.

There are a variety of ways to make payments to your account. To learn more see our Products and Pricing section in these FAQs.
