Should carriers let everyone pause their phone plan like Verizon now allows for military users?
Yes – life happens, flexibility should be for all.
Maybe – as long as it's not abused.
No – it should stay limited to special cases.

You can verify your status easily through and start saving without needing a contract.'s move brings it closer to T-Mobile 's military offerings, though some differences remain. For example,boasts a 5-year price lock guarantee (though we all know how those often work in reality ), while's lock is 3 perks like Netflix, Apple TV+, and Hulu in its plans, whilecharges an extra $10 per line for those if you're comparing carriers, it's not just about who gives you the biggest discount or the most free streaming – it's about where you get solid coverage, real support and the best value for you.
