Then I ask if there is any senior citizens discount and he says he's going to give me another $30 a month over 55 discount.
So one call netted me a $70 a month discount, my bill went from $178 per month to $108 per month. I asked if this was a one year deal and he says, no it's forever.
I got to tell you I was shocked how easy it was! They must be losing customers.

I got those. I have been a Verizon customer for 20 years. The 55+ discount was $55 a phone but the 5G starter package is only $45 per phone. Go figure. I took advantage of the $35 per phone deal when it was available when the competition was $25 a phone among the major carriers. It pays to be vigilant and pay attention to the promotions.
The same goes with cable companies. They will offer the current promotion if requested.
