There are no annual contracts or hidden fees.

Our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee makes switching easy. If for any reason you’re unhappy, cancel within 30 days and receive a refund of the service charge. We’ll also help cover the cost to switch with up to a $500 credit towards early termination fees2. Not a current Verizon customer? You can still get 5G Home Internet for just $50 per month with Auto Pay3.
“Residents and businesses in the Northeast have enjoyed the reliability and fast speeds of our Fios services, and now we’re excited to bring our 5G Home and 5G Business Internet services to more people in the area,” said Chris Flood, North East Consumer Vice President at Verizon. “This expansion will also provide our customers the opportunity to save on their home internet when they combine with select Verizon mobile plans.”
