re: Switching from ATT to Verizon in Baton Rouge. Any downside?

Verizon coverage and speed is good, but I'm leaving due to their bullshite. Started out with them at 6GB shared data, which was fine for a few months. One month we went over, then suddenly started going over every month. Upgraded to 8GB, all of a sudden we're using 8.5 ($15 extra). Upgraded to 10, now we're using 10.5-11. So on and so forth.
After doing some digging, I've found that Verizon has been adding "data usage" of up to half a gig between the hours of midnight and 6 AM, when we're both connected to wifi and have background app data turned off. They've even said I was using data during times when I had the data switch turned off.
While their coverage and speed may be better, I never had this shite happen when I was with ATT. I'll be anxiously awaiting my class-action settlement a few years from now.

That's crazy. I always wonder if the data charges are accurate.
