Verizon Wireless launched new usage controls which give customers “the ability to better manage and control how they use their wireless phones, as well as how their children or others on a ‘family share’ or multiple-line account use their phones.” Customers can monitor and control voice and data usage levels, and parents can manage the costs and services associated with their children’s wireless service. The new services can be managed through an online portal and will cost $4.99/month.
