Unlimited Data is back

[JoshDunc]

I have the L data bucket. I get 8 GB of data plus 4 GB of bonus data for 12 GB. I pay $59.50 for the data, $40 combined for my 2 lines access fees, and about $62 of installment fees for a total of $170 after taxes and fees. My data price is cheaper due to 15% discount for being state employee.

If I went to the unlimited plan my monthly bill would go from $170 to $220. Im not seeing it being worth it for me. If I could use my discount I would be more apt to switch to it though.

So new plan including all fees for two lines one on contract one off no autopay is $170?

I pay 156 now after discounts with udp on one line and 2gb on the other which is on subsidized phone contract

$170 + taxes and whatnot (plan on $4-10 total) and you can save $10 by using autopay with a debit card or checking account. So the total rate would be roughly between $164 and $180, depending on whether or not you choose automatic payments and/or what state you live in.

Well when the contract is up on the one line it will drop to $150. Sign up for auto pay and its $140, so now your $16 cheaper and both lines are unlimited.

does each phone get 10gb hotspot or 10gb between both phones?

BTW- i'd rather pay overage fee than get throttled

Each line separately gets 10 GB at 4G LTE speeds.

So that uses up 20 of our 22gb?

Each phone gets 10 gig Hotspot. What I keep getting conflicting answers about the Hotspot is if the 10 gigs of Hotspot data counts against your 22 gigs. I get yes and no answers from reps and store.

Each line also has 22 GB separately prior to being subject to de-prioritization in congested settings.

The 10 does go towards the 22, yes.

This. Also the throttle isn't 100% .. just during congestion.

Oh that's a big difference. Thanks

No, uses 10 of 22 on each line.

Every line is separate, each line gets unlimited and its own 22GB before throttle.

That could be all the time for all I know

Shouldn't be. Do you live in a super dense area? If not then you should be okay.

Word to your maternal parental or otherwise quasifeminine rolemodel figure.

I work in Boston which is congested. I live in less congested burbs but far fewer towers so each may well be congested. My speed is much faster in Boston

Any chance to use WiFi in either location?

Ya that

 

[recDNA]

Yes at home.Work is open wifi so no way. I use a lot of t of data on weekends watching Netflix which could be anywhere

Ah okay.. yeah you have to judge your area. Since I've been on T-Mobile I've had the congestion clauses .. but I don't see it often for my area. Last month was a high month for me at 126 GB. My normal average is 30 to 50 (anywhere in there).
