AT&T Ends Unlimited Data Plans?
AT&T used to boast that it had unlimited data plans - which are useful to those with smartphones and utilize data intensive applications. That includes streaming video, music, and other similar applications. They would tout it in advertising.
No longer.
AT&T is effectively ending their unlimited data plans. In fact, they’ll slow the download speeds for unlimited 3G and 4G phone users who exceed 3GB and 4G LTE users to exceed 5GB of data in a given month. Previously, AT&T throttled back data plans of those who were in the top 5% of data users in their respective markets.
I think that AT&T has a huge problem, and they’ve had capacity issues for a long time, which is why Consumer Reports and others have slammed them for reliability and access times.
