Get ready for Verizon legacy plan price hikes.

Starting March 1st, it’ll be an extra $4 per month to stay on the carrier’s Get More / Play More / Do More / Start 5G plans. Verizon confirmed rumors of the change to CNET on January 17th. On the plus side, it’s adding 5GB of mobile hotspot data to affected plans.

Verizon did away with those plans last year when it streamlined things with its “myPlan” offerings.
