How Verizon Wireless Plans Work

Verizon Communications was founded in the year 2000 through the merger of Bell Atlantic Corp. and GTE Corp.

Cellco Partnership as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, is the legal entity that actually provides wireless service to consumers.  The Cellco Partnership is better known publicly by its DBA or “Doing Business As name”, Verizon Wireless.

Verizon Wireless is currently headquartered in Basking Ridge, New Jersey.

In December of 2010 Verizon Wireless became the 2nd carrier in the USA after UScellular to offer an LTE network to its subscribers.  At launch 39 markets got covered with the new technology.  In 2014 Verizon Wireless improved upon its network by launching VoLTE which allowed consumers to be able to use voice and data simultaneously as well as providing them with the ability to place HD Voice and HD Video calls.

Verizon Wireless runs the nations largest 4G LTE network which is said to cover 98% of the population in the USA or 2.3 million square miles. Verizon’s LTE Advanced network covers over 450 cities coast to coast while its XLTE technology is available in over 466 cities. Its 5G Nationwide and Ultra-Wideband networks are continuously being expanded. The 5G Nationwide network covers over 230m Americans.

Verizon Wireless it is historically known to be the least friendly major carrier when it comes to supporting MVNO’s.  It was the last carrier to allow its MVNO’s access to its LTE network.  It also historically limited its MVNO partners LTE download speeds to roughly 5 Mbps and upload speeds to 2 Mbps.  This limitation put those Verizon MVNO’s at a competitive disadvantage when compared to MVNO’s on any other network where speeds generally aren’t restricted. Fortunately, those speed restrictions are no longer in place.
