Anyone get slowed data with sprint after 5 gigs?

Sprint does not do this. I have no issues with my data speeds at home or in my home area. At work (35 miles away) I notice some areas are slow and some are not. All depends where you live.

 

Same here, Sprint doesn't throttle. My son and I have had months we've used over 7GB and no hassles.

 

I should have commented on speeds, too. I've never had a problem and neither has my son. I'm in the Seattle area and he's D.C. Metro,

 

Never had problem either. I used 13GBs once when I went to Seattle one time and things kept going along just fine.

Edit: Speed-wise, it won't be anywhere near AT&T. But, I've never had problems with the speeds I've gotten either, pages load up with relative quickness and app downloads definitely take longer on a CDMA network but its not like it takes hours to get something downloaded. This is my experience with Northern California/Portland/Seattle, just FYI.

 

Geez no wonder my data speeds suck with all you pigs hogging the data. I've been "throttled" since day 1 with Sprint.

 

The only cap or limit sprint has on there data is 5gb for teathering but I don't think they slow you after that just charge you more. But with tethering I have easily used 7-15gb a month for the last 3 years.

 

While Sprint in fact does not throttle data, it's important to keep in mind at this time - on the iPhone 4S - it's extremely slow compared to its competitors. Some of this is because Sprint (and Verizon) don't support HSPA+, which AT&T uses to effectively triple the data throughput compared to Verizon and Sprint.

Sprint has been long scolded (since the launch) of poor data issues. It doesn't affect everyone, but there are a number of threads on this forum regarding people getting download speeds of 0.10 megabits per second down and up. I'd suggest that you search the forum (top right corner) and look for Sprint and Data Speed issues.

That being said I've never found Sprint had throttled me, and aside from the few months I decided to use Pandora, I never really broke 250 MB of data usage. iCloud could potentially change all that, though.

 

Easily answered by checking directly with Sprint:

"No throttling, no metering, no overages. Just slow service!"

Is what it should say!

 

You guys are complaining too much ahahah
In my country you pay a LOT for only 250mb a month with a 1mbps connection. BUT, it NEVER reaches 1mbps... something between 600-800kbps.
After that, they slow down your speed to 30kbps ahahaha

5gb on data plan? This is a dream for me

 

I usually use 4-5 GB of data with sprint and never seen a slow down even when I use to theter , sprint data is slower for some people so you should check that out first I usually get good enough speeds , like 1-2 Mbps
