I can't help but think it's about the minutes.
If you FaceTime everyone instead of calling you're using Data alright, that your'e paying for, but you're also NOT using any minutes...so you could drop your minutes plan down to a minimum, bump up your data, and end up cheaper possibly.
ATT already losing revenue on texting with iMessage.
I don't know why they or someone doesn't just lead the pack and provide a Data-Only plan already...it's not like Voice or SMS are something special any more.

Yep and if ATT thinks I'm paying extra they can kiss my ass. I hope to god T-MO gets the iPhone this year. I'll take my 4 iPhone family somewhere else. I have not had any issues with ATT service wise, but this will push me to another carrier.
For?
Is the AT&T network THAT bad? I mean even with LTE that it can't handle a small video chat over cellular?
Sounds like a third rate network.
No, no, AT&T's network isn't *that* bad. Well, at least usually not.Is the AT&T network THAT bad? I mean even with LTE that it can't handle a small video chat over cellular?

This is why I love Verizon's new plans. It's like they are saying, "Pick how many gigs you want and use it however you like, we don't care."
It's how any carrier SHOULD handle it any way considering they are capping you.
But I have a theory, perhaps the people that are receiving this message probably still have unlimited data plans.
I'm on an AT&T capped plan and have not received this message after 6 4G FaceTime calls. (I'm on Beta 3)
it's 2012, why are american carriers so behind the rest of the world?
Paying for tethering/hotspot and FaceTime are simply consumer abuse, pure and simple. Aside from grandfathered unlimited accounts, which can be restricted, there is simply no justification for requiring users to pay fees for features that will encourage users to consume more data and pay overage fee.
Verizon does this but for many, the new plans cost more. I'm sure AT&T would happily start offering the more expensive plans with all these features built in but the same people here will be complaining how the new plans are a rip and they won't switch. At the end of the day, everyone will have to pay more and expect less data.
