I didn't have my iPhone anymore so I called AT&T and took off the data plan about 3 weeks ago.

Well now I have my 3GS back (Will be getting the iPhone 4 soon) and I can't get the unlimited data plan back. Called AT&T, even talked to a supervisor. It didn't work.

I don't want their measly 2GBs. :(
 
There is no way to get the unlimited back. I'm mad about it as well. It may yet again appear in about 5 years.
 
That's a big oops for you. 3 weeks.. not even a billing cycle. You should of just kept it until you get a new iPhone.

You only have 200MB and 2GB options to choose now.
 
:(

When I called, I actually just told them I am using a different phone now and didn't even want to take off the data plan. They said it would save me money if they took it off. I said fine.

I never got an email saying that after June 7th there won't be any more unlimited data plans :(

You're SOL dude.
No matter how much you complain and speak to 100 managers they cannot add it back cause its not available any more.
You have to be "grandfathered"

Can I transfer from another Unlimited data plan (2nd line) to mine?

No, you cannot be "Grandfathered" or transfer the unlimited data from one line to another.
You can transfer you phone and start using that line/number from now on if you want.
No other options.

The news has been all over the place. :)

Now seriously, I don't think it's too bad to settle with the 2GB plan. I don't know how you use your iPhone, but it's pretty hard to hit that limit in one month. You'll save 5 dollars a month. :)
 
What's worse is that the original iPhone unlimited plan included unlimited data + unlimited text messages. Even people who were able to keep unlimited data had to select an alternative texting plan, which carried an additional fee with it.
