As a very satisfied T-Mobile customer, these changes sound awful to me. - $70/month, not $50/month. That's a 40% price increase - Wifi hotspot now costs an ad

As a very satisfied T-Mobile customer, these changes sound awful to me.
- $70/month, not $50/month. That's a 40% price increase
- Wifi hotspot now costs an additional $15/month, or runs only at 2G speeds
- The existing $50/month plan will no longer be available to new users who are joining T-Mobile.
I don't use a whole bunch of data. ~2GB/month is perfectly sufficient for me. What I really love about my current plan is the cheap price ($50 per month), and the fact that it includes extremely fast wifi hotspot. These are the exact 2 things they have taken away from the plan. Maybe this is a positive development for many customers, but I personally hate it.
- tw04 10y agoIf you only use 2GB/month, why not switch to google fi? You'll have better coverage and a lower monthly cost.

- subway 10y agoIf you have a limited number of devices, or use a lot of data, Verizon beats out Project Fi -- Fi shines when you have multiple devices (in my case, phone, tablet, laptop) with modems, and don't want to pay a $10/device/mo access fee.
- AdmiralAsshat 10y agoAre you kidding? I have a single smartphone under Verizon for 2 lousy gigs a month, and I'm paying $80/mth. That's after my employer discount.
- subway 10y agoMaybe you should switch to one of the new plans? Currently it looks like what you describe is $35/mo: http://www.verizonwireless.com/landingpages/verizon-plan/ http://www.verizonwireless.com/landingpages/verizon-plan/

- jlgaddis 10y agoI have a Verizon pre-paid plan on an iPhone 6s I purchased outright at the Apple Store. My plan provides unlimited minutes and texting and 2 GB of data. I get an additional 1 GB because I'm enrolled in the auto-pay program. Including taxes, fees, etc., they charge $49.15 USD to my AmEx monthly (for the advertised $45/mo. plan). My average monthly usage is ~600 MB. My girlfriend has a very similar plan on AT&T and pays roughly the same amount, though I don't know the exact details of her plan.
