In the UK this is simply not the case. I have unlimited 4g connection, and I had unlimited 3g before that. In fact, the 3g was my _only_ internet for a long time via tethering. It was good enough to play TF2, and could easily download 20gig games overnight via steam etc.
I assume somewhere there is a fair use policy - but if i've never hit it I reckon it's doing a pretty good job of only hitting abusive use.
5g isn't going to solve the problem of US pricing being shit.
- topbanana 10y agoThese deals don't exist any more. Trust me, I've looked!
- libeclipse 10y agoThey do exist. Abundantly.
- saulr 10y agoThey definitely do - I signed up to one the other week. Three do "all-you-can-eat" 4G data + 200 minutes = £23/month (50% off first 6 months)
- fossuser 10y agoCare to share the provider or details? When I was in the UK for a few months in 2014 the deals were worse than the US and the data caps were lower (LTE on EE). EE also actually went down twice while I was there in London which I've never had Verizon ever do.
