Yes, but at least Verizon's prices come with a benefit: better infrastructure. All around Verizon keeps building new better infrastructure and AT&T keeps using their old infrastructure with new technology. Not just in wireless though, AT&T offers DSL only still (of course the 6mbps [AT&T's fastest plan] plan for a mere $35/month is AWESOME!) vs Verizon's fiber optic to home (FiOS) (their cheapest plan being 15down/5up mbps for an expensive less than double the price $50-55/month for about 3x the down speed, and far more than that upload speed).All around, Verizon offers better services, so the extra little price tags are usually worth it. Only thing keeping AT&T going usually is misinformation, or monopolies (iPhone & service areas). I can't get FiOS for example because it's AT&T's territory.
