The [company announced](http://www.verizonwireless.com/news/article/2014/04/more-everything-savings-coming.html "undefined") that starting Thursday, April 17, compatible phones brought to Verizon will qualify for its lower, [no-contract Verizon Edge discount rate](http://www.techlicious.com/blog/verizon-edge-how-the-trade-in-plan-stacks-up-against-the-competition/ "undefined") on a [new MORE Everything plan](http://www.techlicious.com/blog/are-verizons-new-more-everything-plans-worth-it/ "undefined"). For individual users, the savings amount to $10 per month discount on your monthly line access fee with your own phone. Under the Edge plan, one line with 250MB will cost you just $45 per month (albeit with nasty data overage fees looming). Larger families can qualify for even larger discounts as long as you purchase a 10GB or larger data plan. Four lines with 10GB of shared data now cost just $160 per month on Verizon Edge, the same cost as [AT&T](http://www.techlicious.com/blog/att-and-t-mobile-new-cheaper-data-plans/ "undefined").
