BASKING RIDGE, N.J., April 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Verizon has a long-standing commitment to those who serve — nurses, first responders, government agencies, active-duty military and teachers. Now, more than ever, we recognize the sacrifices and importance of those who support our communities. That’s why Verizon is committed to supporting them through unique offers, discounts, recognition and donations.

Since the start of the COVID-19 crisis, Verizon has committed $45 million in contributions and donations to nonprofits directed at serving students, healthcare workers, first responders, and small businesses.

Best pricing to those who serve

Starting April 23, Verizon is expanding our best wireless unlimited pricing to nurses, who are doing such critical work keeping our friends, family and neighbors cared for, and teachers, who are keeping our students engaged and learning. They join active-duty military, veterans and people who work as first responders who already benefit from this ongoing pricing for their personal accounts and for their families.

“Verizon has a long-standing commitment to supporting people who work as first responders, the military and their families and we are proud to expand our efforts to include nurses and teachers at a time when they’re doing so much to help us through this national crisis,” said Ronan Dunne, CEO of Verizon Consumer Group. “This is just another way for us to thank these heroes for everything they do, not just now during this challenging time, but every day.”

The new discounts will be available to eligible new and existing Verizon customers on Mix & Match wireless unlimited plans starting April 23 and on Mix & Match Fios internet plans starting May 7. For those who serve, wireless unlimited plans will be as low as $30/mo per line for four lines with Start Unlimited and enrollment in Auto Pay, and Fios 200Mbps internet as low as $34.99/mo with enrollment in Auto Pay. Customers who choose the Fios Gigabit internet plan can save up to $30/month in service and equipment charges. These discounts can be combined with the Mobile + Home Rewards benefits for joint Fios home internet and wireless subscribers.
