How do you know if you're being throttled on Verizon with unlimited data?

I average between 17 and 19GB per month on unlimited (without tethering) and have never noticed a slow down due to high usage.
Doubt they throttle at all, my friend from here uses 100+ gb of data month, never said he's been throttled.

If I remember correctly... The FCC slapped Verizon with a $1M fine a while back for trying to charge limited users for tethering and trying to throttle speeds on their network. Because of the spectrum they use for LTE it isn't allowed by federal law and they signed agreements to that fact.

Doubt they throttle unlimited but they try to get to lose it as best they can i had unlimited and when they switched over my phone they sneeked in a special step putting my number on a basic line temp so my data would be lost so i lost unlimited got it back i used 100+ a month because it was faster then my wifi they did not like that
If you have to ask this question, they're throttling you. 
Only way to really know is to do speed tests randomly throughout the month to see what kind of speed you're getting.

I notice certain places on the Web are slower than normal
I work from home and download big files which was at normal speeds up until just a few weeks ago
Now I cannot download big files because of how slow my connection becomes
People even on Verizon website notice
