I just got an email from ATT saying I went over my 1 terabyte usage for the month. I didn't know it was capped? I had TV and internet through ATT until it the promotional period ended last month. I cancelled tv waiting for DIRECTV now to come around. I've never been notified about usage and we stream a lot of stuff.
Is there an internet package that do not have caps? Unlimited of sorts?
I have the DirecTV Now app, on my AppleTV. I than looked at how quickly it added up. It seemed to use about 6Mb/sec of data bandwidth when active. I noticed that notation on my ATT bill a few months back, and thought "what the heck". Like their mobile accounts (which is why i moved to T-mobile than) they're putting data caps on home internet too. One thing I knew, I WASN'T going to pay and an ADDITIONAL $30 to get unlimited. I also wasn't going to bundle in a DirecTV satellite account with temporary price, to get it either. With the additional modem/box rental costs and such. It would all get excessive again.
That's why I recently dropped ATT U-verse internet, and switched to Spectrum (formerly TWC). The need to drop ATT was my way of saying "F Y". At least Spectrum has faster speeds and NO data caps. That may change again at some point, than I will find a different option. Thankfully, we HAVE options.
