For caparison, Verizon and AT&T have it at 22 GB while Sprint has it at 23 GB. I also heard a rumor that Verizon is starting a campaign to get their biggest unlimited data consumers off their network. Their network is obviously hurting big time when they re-introduced unlimited data plans. Will see if this raise from T-Mobile hurts the network but I don't really see it happening.

Does binge on count towards the limit?... Pretty sure I went over their cap last month if you count all my data but most of it was on PlayStation Vue which supports binge on but I didn't notice any slow down

Yes, Binge On counts toward the de-prioritization limit.

T Mobile is completely unlimited data. No need to worry about Binge On any longer.

There are still a good amount of users on the older Simple Choice plans that haven't migrated to T-Mobile One.

Golf clap for the company doing way less than they should be. Yaaaayyyy.


How in the **** do we have limits of the ****ing Internet in 2017? Seriously. Wtf.

**** them. **** you too at&t. Thanks for the unlimited Internet plan. I used to have to keep it at 40gb, but I just blew the 104gb last month. Kiss my ass.

Agreed, quit being regressive and upgrade your network to handle demand using the exorbitant amount of money you charge your users monthly.

How do people even get close to 20 gb of data a month, much less 50? Only thing I can think of is if you stream music 8 hours a day at your work I guess that starts to add up. Im cheap when it comes to that stuff and have no problem with a 2 gb monthly plan. Yall do know what wifi is right??????

Edit to add I do have a friend that is in outside sales so to log his milage he has to have a tracking app on constantly when driving around and seeing customers but outside of one really specific instance like his, Im having a hard time seeing how people use that much data. Pick your heads up out of your phones every once in a while, it wont kill you.

Streaming the World Cup games had me hitting the 20gb threshold to where I got the warning text. But that was multiple games over weeks.

TMobile and Sprint are in merger talks. It appears that if that happens, they may structure the transaction so that it is like they are both acquired by another company. I wonder if there is a clause in the TM user agreements about mergers/acquisitions and releasing both the company and the consumer from any particular clause or agreement.

I keep an eye on it but don't go over 3-4 gb a month. holy **** none of you get your work done.

I make sure to download my podcasts at home. I just don't see how you are are getting 20-40 gb a month in data.

How do you use 104gb on your phone?

Hotspot, bro. My cellular signal is my broadband Internet. It's phone, email, netflix, bills, internet, remote login.

Like I said, in 2017, we really havnt gotten that far from AOL of 1995.

I work and lurk YouTube gaming streamers all day. I steadily hit 50GB each month.

Im starting to wonder this myself. I mean, I shouldnt be casting too many stones as I definitely cruse texags during working hours and check facebook at lunch, but damn if yall are using up that much data during the day, either ask for more work or something, will probably help you get promoted.

Wouldnt this make more sense monetarily too? I know spotify, apple music, and other stuff will let you save playlists for offline listening so you dont use data. Would it not be cheaper to pay them $10 a month or whatever vs paying a lot more per month for unlimited data on a phone plan? I know with verizon an unlimited plan is more than $10 higher than the 2 gb plan I have.

I still think its BS a company can advertise and call its service "unlimited" when there are clearly strings attached when you hit certain thresholds. You should be getting the same service the first gig of data as you are the 500 gb of data, anything other than that is false advertising pure and simple.

If you aren't in an area of high data usage, you will never get throttled.
