Doesn't Sprint also throttle you over a certain GB limit?
I have a hard time deciding if I want unlimited or not. I certainly don't need unlimited. I know there are people who use 50-100+ GB a month but I don't come anywhere near that and don't want to subsidize those people. I'm perfectly fine with a per GB charge or a decent sized base plan and a reasonable per GB overage. OTOH those caps need to grow every year because in a few years 100 GB a month will probably be today's 200 MB plan. So in that case "unlimited" has some futureproofing to it.
- sunnynagra 14y agoFrom what I remember in their recent PR campaign, they won't ever throttle you.
- tedunangst 14y agoI had a Sprint 4G hotspot with unlimited data. Until one month they decided to change my plan to 5GB with big overage charges. They "announced" this change by slipping a notice in the PDF ebills I never once downloaded. After $200 in overage charges (which I disputed for hours, only to be repeatedly told I was given "valid" notice) I cancelled the service. Fuck Sprint. I should mention this occurred right at the same time they were making a big advertising push about how their unlimited data plans were truly unlimited. The fine print was that only phones got unlimited data. Hotspots and other data devices were pushed onto a limited plan even if you started out unlimited. Fuck Sprint some more.
- pooriaazimi 14y ago:) The sad part is they got a "free" $200 from you. I don't think they mind losing you as a customer!
- thoughtpalette 14y agoOh they should. Word-of-mouth will cost more than $200 in potential customers from Sprint because of this person and their experience.
