Re: Uncarrier 12! No Data Buckets!
The 2G tether... I suspect the reason for that is eliminate people using their phone's unlimited plans as their home WIFI.
As for the congestion, its not a lie... I know a few people who have gone way past that limit and have never seen any type of throttling... so here, T-Mobile sticks to their word that it will only occur while your network segment is congested.
And at $40 per person (for family of 4), they each get unlimited LTE data.. even if they are on a busy segment 24/7, EACH person gets 26G a month, not sharing 24G through all 4 lines. And if they all buy the $25 HD LTE video upgrade, THEN they pay $17.50 total more.. but they still get over 4 times the aggregate data.
