What's still true? The fact Verizon has their free night and weekend minutes?
Very true! They go from 9:01pm to 5:59am. Be sure you wait until 9:01...if you connect a call at 9pm...you're stuck paying for the duration of the call...until you hang up...then it becomes free to retry a call.
I've listed the free night time calling for the majority of the carriers below:
Verizon: 9:01pm until 5:59am
*AT&T: 9pm until 6am
*Sprint PCS: 9pm until 6am
T-Mobile: 9pm until 6:59am
*Sprint and AT&T both offer early night options for an additional fee. If you pay this fee, your nights will begin at 7pm and end at 6am with AT&T and 7am with Sprint.
Watch out for T-Mobile's plans! They can be very deceptive. Not all of their plans include unlimited nights and weekends. Some may include free mobile to mobile, unlimited nights OR weekends, or all or none of these.
