In other words, if you have an existing Verizon plan, instead of you purchasing minutes from OnStar (which expire !!!) at an insane price you can use your cell phone plan at no additional cost. the catch is it must be Verizion, becuase the hands free feature goes through Verizion.I called and emailed Verizion asking why it was canceled and all I received at first was a "cookie cutter" email response. They (Verizon) later called me and tried to explain. They told me to call OnStar to ask way. Today I got a call from OnStar to tell me how all of the features worked. I let them know how upset I was about being shut out of this existing program. This program is not being cancelled for those who are already in it ! I strongly suggested that they should allow (Grand Father) those GM car purchasers who took posession of their cars prior to the cut off date be allowed into this program. General Motors is the parent of OnStar. If anyone can do something about this, they can. For those of you who are in the same boat as me and care, please contact OnStar and voice your opion. Last time I checked GM's stock was not worth the paper it was printed on and didn't they get a bail out from the Government, oh I mean the hard working tax payers. Whats fair is fair, speak up. While you're at it send an email to GM and let them know how happy you are. Good Luck

That was tough to read. So, what's the problem? Verizon will still gladly add your OnStar phone line to your existing Verizon Wireless account as a $9.99 add-a-line. Only catch is that you must be on a Family Share plan, so if you currently only have a single line, the customer service rep will advise you of their Family Share plan options and you make your choice.
