There will clearly be some who can benefit from the new program; those who can trade down plans fall into that group. However, since Verizon excluded the $39.99 plan from this program, this will eliminate the trade-down option for the majority of Verizon subscribers..... as I suspect that (at most) 20% of Verizon customers are on the two higher end plans (1350 and unlimited). This may not be relevant for your specific situation, but for others in a situation like this: As you calculate the minutes you'll save by adding a number to your Friends & Family list, remember to only include those minutes for which you are currently being charged (i.e., weekdays, not Verizon mobile-to-mobile) in your plan.

They will probably be able to bump down from 79 to 59 so actually saving 240 a year. I myself am on the unlimited plan and use about 1600 mins a month due to my job and conference calls. I will be able to add my Conference call number (that eats about 300 mins a month) my office number that eats about 200, and my parents home phone, and my personal home phone. Probably going to save me $40.....taking me from $99 to $59.....I am very happy. Well I see your point but what about the people who have 1350 minute plan that are only using say 1100.
