Wow!..

I've lived in the US for 2 years and Canada for 7 years. Now in France since 2014...:

Cheapest plan starts at 10 euros/month ($11.5), no yearly contract nor cancellation fee, unlimited calls/SMS (cell and landlines) in France and from all EU, unlimited free hot spots, and 30GB of 4G (goes to free lower debit beyond).

That's one of the few cheap things here (also: unlimited optical fiber and cable TV starting at $17)... but the Apple products are so much more expensive... :-( .
Things like that come with differences in country sizes, population, geographic location, and many other factors.

Many all you can eat sushi and some other types of food places will only bring you one roll at a time and you can only order one at a time. Various other ones will stop putting out some dishes at certain time or will put out certain dishes only at certain times when the buffet cost is higher.

The point is that various rules that are not only not unheard of but are fairly typical for things of that nature. Sure in a perfect world it wouldn't be like that, and there would be world peace too, but in the real world that we live in the reality is the reality.

That said, the marketing can definitely be better. Ultimately what it comes down to is that it's unlimited data, not unlimited speeds.
I’m not sure where you’re from, but where I reside, if any restaurant practiced like that, they would be out of business in a heartbeat. That’s what happens when you have competition and the customer doesn’t support that type of practice with their wallet. I guess there are people who don’t mind getting stiffed for their money.
 
Do none of you 10GB+ people use WiFi?

This is a legit question, as I’m genuinely curious.

I fail to use beyond 3GB a month, and I stream loads of YouTube and radio and surf the web. Granted I don’t use FB much and I know it’s a data hog, but it’s mostly on WiFi though. Heck, I can even stream DirectTV NOW data free, because I’m with AT&T and they own DirecTV NOW.

Are you people streaming at work? In the car? Are you in school? Because otherwise, if you’re at home, I imagine you’d be on WiFi, yes??
lol, I use over 250gb each month basically turned off wifi streaming netflix,youtube and tuneinradio nonstop.
