exactly as the title states. as of yesterday, if you need to change your price plan, there is no contract extension.

adding lines, new lines, upgrades still will require contracts.

the only other company to do this is alltel.

404 bad service not found  
but hey, i bet all of those billion little gay things that verizon nickel and dimes their customers on really help to keep their service in tip top shape as well. I don’t even have them personally, nor will i ever, and they still managed to screw me out of $100 through the mail-in rebates with evolve’s store.
