Verizon Expands Home Phone Connect Nationwide

Humberto Saabedra

Following up on our report on Verizon’s Home Phone Connect service in December, Verizon has expanded the service from its Conneticut and New York test markets to rest of its coverage area around the country, providing competition for services such as Vonage as well as entrenched landline providers.

Pricing remains the same as in the test period, with unlimited service for $19.99 per month plus taxes and fees after a new 2 year agreement with free hardware, as well as add-on pricing for $9.99 per month when added as another line on an existing FamilyShare plan.

Features include Call waiting, forwarding, ID, 3-way calling, international dialing, voice mail, 411, account and emergency access with E911 as well as account balance access.
