When might the 2 Gig plan make its way to other portions of the Verizon Fios footprint? A Verizon spokesperson shared with CNET over email that the company's 'focus now is on expanding availability deeper into the New York DMA, including Long Island, New Jersey and Connecticut, with additional markets to be announced later this year.'

In those other markets, it offers three selections: Fios 300 (symmetrical download and upload speeds of 300 megabits per second), Fios 500 (symmetrical 500Mbps) and Fios 1 Gig (940Mbps download, 880Mbps upload). Those who order online will receive a $100 gift card, and Verizon will also waive the $99 setup charge.Īway from NYC, Verizon Fios, the telecom's 100% fiber internet service, is available to customers in eight states (Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia), as well as the District of Columbia.

New customers will get a free year of Walmart Plus (which includes a Paramount Plus subscription, fuel rewards, free delivery and other perks) and 12 months of Disney Plus for free. Verizon is also trying to sweeten the pot with additional perks.
