What would it take for you to give up your ATT Unlimted Plan?

What he said. Although the 30gb family plan for the price of 15 is what finally moved me over.

My bill is the same, I don't get throttled, I have mobile hot spot and I have to brand new phones. It was a win for all of us.

This - This is a good time to move to the 30GB plan. The deal ends at the end of the month. It shook about $60 off our bill. We have two phones and 2 iPads.

I never thought I would give up the unlimited plan on my iPad but it was a waste of money to keep it when I could simply move it over to the MobileShare plan with the other devices. Also, with all 4 devices, we will never use 30GB of data a month. Unlimited talk/text and mobile hotspot was the clincher.

The unlimited plans are becoming obsolete especially since many users are getting throttled.

Nothing could make me give it up. I'm grandfathered in on my iPad mini for the unlimited data plan from AT&T. I use 60GB a month sometimes and pay only $29.

I'd never give up this plan.

It seems likely to me that the OP was referring to the unlimited data plan for iPhones, on which many users are still grandfathered. The one for iPads is an entirely different beast, which has never been throttled.

You meant doesn't throttle at all.

oops, heh
yeah does not throttle

----------

if you have an iPad and pay $10 for t-mobile, you get music freedom, heh

if AT&T offered something like that for $10, it would be great!

I dropped my Unlimited ATT data for Verizon Unlimited data. No more throttling.

I might have asked this before, I forget but I pay for Unlimited on My iPhone and 3GB or something small on my wifes, so we pay 2 Data charges.

Would it be cheaper for us to switch to the 30GB for both? Like can we share that?

Possibly. Run a comparison on AT&T's site to see if you'd save money.

i think the argument comes down to this:

Do you want a cap on your usage or not? Speed aside, unlimited data is unlimited. I use 30gbs one month, 50 the next, or only 5, I pay the same amount. But I don't have to worry about going over and getting overage fees.

Tiered data sounds good when you look at historical usage, usage which Occured on old technology and networks. Watching YouTube or Netflix at all on your cellular is going to eat up data. What happens when every video is ultra hd? When your friends text you those large ass iphone 6+ photos? Sending them?

People have no idea how much data usage there future entails. They tout wifi as an option, until your home internet provider rolls out metered usage at home. Then what you going to do?
