The broadband internet service will cost current Verizon customers $50 a month while non-Verizon customers will have to pay $70 a month.

Verizon is also sweetening the deal by giving customers a couple of freebies. In addition to a free three-month membership for YouTube TV, the company will let customers choose between receiving a free Chromecast Ultra or Apple TV 4K at the time of installation.
