Boost Mobile New Unlimited Data Policy

[walterg5]

If you've been a Boost Mobile user any length of time. You know the old policy. At 35gb they can slow your speeds during peak congestion times.
I've never had it slowed down, but I live in a rural area. Data was pretty much totally unlimited.
So what does Dish do. Now when you hit 35gb you are slowed to 2g speeds.
I will let everyone know how bad this is once I hit it. Already got the 85 percent used warning.

If hard forced to 2g I'd expect light things.. some GPS and stuff to work. Otherwise anything else will be painful.

2G is pretty much useless. Even GPS will not load the graphics if the directions at all.

I have seen it work on 2g. Is it ideal? Hell no .. never is .. but it will function.
