Verizon stops throttling more firefighters, plans unlimited data “with no caps”

Verizon Wireless today said it has temporarily stopped throttling the data of firefighters and other first responders on the West Coast and in Hawaii and will soon introduce a new unlimited plan “with no caps” and with priority access for first responders.

“As of yesterday, we removed all speed cap restrictions for first responders on the West Coast and in Hawaii to support current firefighting and Hurricane Lane efforts,” Verizon’s announcement today said. “Further, in the event of another disaster, Verizon will lift restrictions on public safety customers, providing full network access.”

Next week, Verizon said it will provide full details on “a new plan that will feature unlimited data, with no caps on mobile solutions and automatically includes priority access.”
