Important Information*This is an estimate of the minutes used since your last invoice date through {Last_Minutes_Date/Time}. This estimate may not include airtime used outside of your local calling area. You will not receive a free text message if you have a text message block on your line of service. #MIN refreshes minute information at different time intervals depending on the billing system and Area switches. The recording and text message provide the date and time of the last update.
#MIN, #BAL, #DATA or #PMT are only available when on the Verizon Wireless network while in Canada because these feature codes are Verizon Wireless specific and work only on a VZW mobile switch. VZW doesn't have coverage in Canada, in general. Also, while in the U.S., customers can only access the same feature codes while in a Verizon Wireless market.
