Cheaper unlimited data plan available

i have been browsing this forum, and i haven't seen anyone mention that they have a preferred data plan.
however, tmobile does offer a $20 preferred android unlimited plan. it can be acquired by calling tmobile retentions department and just asking nicely!
this plan satisfies the data requirement that is needed for the $200 upgrade price on the g2x.
hope this was a help!

More details? I pay 59.99 a month for 1000 minutes and unlimited text/data 4g with the even more plus plan. Would I benefit?

Is it still throttled?

When I was at Tmobile, the store manager said I have to get the 4G plan to get 4G data. I told him I already got Android plan and he insisted to change the plan to 4G. He said there is no different in price (My Android plan was $25 )

Congrats. You've just been throttled to 2GB.

Yep! That store clerk was a moron. There is no such thing as a "4G plan". All there is is the old 5gb cap and the new 2gb cap. You got screeewwwwed.

Im also on the same 19.99 android data plan. It was given to me after complaining about the 4G/3G coverage in my area.
And data is still throttled after 5GB to a speed of dial up.

I called and had the $20 preferred android added on. The first time I called, the rep insisted on renewing my contract to 2 years, I declined, and called back an hour later. The 2nd rep added on and the whole conversation took less than 3 minutes.
Just want to throw that out there, so you don't renew your contract.

I signed up for the $60 1500 minutes + unlimited text special, and then the unlimited (5GB) data for $20.
A few days later they switch the same plan around to "unlimited" everything for the same combined price ($80)
I tried switching but my data plan would change to $30 instead of $20 for some reason.

No.
In fact you would end up on the 2gb throttle at that point.

Im confused. The $80 includes unlimited data, right? I mean thats how it was when I went in today. 79.99 for unlimited text/talk/data

Oh they'll say unlimited data. I haven't seen a single "unlimited" data plan without some sort of throttling to 2G built in.

Not true.. I've been on the preferred plan for months. I have used more than 2gb of data in one month.(I used 3.86gb last month) and I didnt get throttled

Sometimes they will throttle you, sometimes they wont. Is it really easy to go over 2GB without even using the tethering/hotspot capabilities?

Yes, true. Go look at their website. They started the unlimited everything for 79.99 right before the G2x launched and suckered people into a 2gb throttled plan.
I, unfortunately, am one of them.

Very easy if you're into youtube or slacker radio on high quality

This looks pretty good to me, but I have two questions:
I just got the g2x, and it's my first android phone so I'm not too familiar with what's a normal amount of data usage. If I will just be using my phone for web browsing and twitter and facebook with light photo uploading, and occasional youtube, will 2gb be enough? Right now I get 200 mb.....so anything would be better.
Also, is there a special number I should call for retentions, or do I just call customer service and ask about the plan?

Tmobile.c om has a meter at which they calculate data usage under different scenarios. Give that a try. From my personal experiences with data usages on a smart phone, 200mb is not nearly enough to be satisfied. Watching youtube for 10-15 mins can already take up a chunk of your limited 200mb. If you're going to stick with that plan then i suggest you use wifi whenever you're able to.
I don't think there is a specific number for their retention lines. You can just dial 611 on your tmobile activated cell and ask to be transferred to retentions.
I am currently on a preferred data plan for $20 and unlimited family text for $10. I'm not to sure what they would give for a single plan. Ask about these deals.
Good luck. I hope you can get it all worked out fine!

Welcome and happy posting,
If you didn't change your plan then everything will stay exactly the way it was.
I also came from a rooted G1 and am using the old sim. Everything is working well.

[Q] Tmobile store changed plan to 5gb without permission. getting old plan possible?

So in April when i picked up my G2X i decided to go to the local Tmobile store to get my phone because i didnt want to wait for shipping and for once decided to save a few bucks and get the contract extension rather than pay outright.
when there setting everything up I was told I needed a new sim card for 4G.
I thought that was odd because I was already given a "new" 4G sim for that reason on my nexus one.
I specifically told the clerk i did NOT want the new 5GB plan because of the data throttling and wanted to keep my old plan. he said no problem.
I have since found out the hard way I am now on the 5GB plan and constantly get the throttle text message and its pissing me off.
Ive tried calling Tmobile and I always end up with someone who barely speaks English and doesn't understand what my problem is.
I explain i want my old plan and not to be data throttled and they read from a script explaining it doesnt cut off my internet or charge me extra.
has anyone dealt with this and succesfully got the old plan back?
even with constantly being on WIFI when its available ( and killing my battery )
i go over 5gb and it sucks.

Everybody got switched to 5GB, I don't think anybody wanted it either. You can't get unthrottled data plans anymore. The only thing you could do is "upgrade" to the 10GB plan.

Well that blows, i was under the impression if you dont change your plan they are obligated to give you the service you've always had.
I havent checked the 10GB price but considering what I am paying now I doubt I will be willing to pay it.
it sucks paying more money for lesser service.
so far in the last few months I feel like Tmobile, My bank,insurance & Sirius have all bent me over & screwed me without dinner or a thank you....

Just curious, how long have you had unthrottled data? I got switched to the 5GB plan back in October of last year.
Sent from my MIUI G2x using XDA Premium App

How it was explained to me, T-Mobile always had the 5 gb limit. They just didn't enforce it automatically like they do now. It was hidden away in the fine print way back that 5 gb was the limit for high speed data, they just had no way of actually throttling til they got the 4g network up and running. So we are screwed. I can't even upgrade to the 10gb plan since I'm on and old myfavs family plan so its not an option for me.

thats what i THOUGHT i was still on. i was supposed to be on the myfaves plan with unlimited android from the G1 days.
seems like these days not only does your dollar not go very far but it seems like you have to take it and like it because there are no better options.
especially with cellular providers.
sucks I finally get a phone how i want and now i cant find decent service for it in south FL lol

The 10gig plan is an extra $60. I have 2 devices with this service And its still not enough. Got throttled in the first week this month. Off to buy a hotspot tomorrow.

Wait, it's $60 on top of what you're paying for phone/messaging ?

You are guys are lucky you don't get throttled until 5gb. The two major carriers in Thailand throttle you down to Edge speeds on 3G after reaching 2Gb on one and 3Gb on the other on their so-called unlimited data plans.

You can get a sonic hot spot for 20 a month???

I checked my plan for the first time in ages the other day; did not bother checking because it's been the same for the last 5 years (unlimited everything), and I too found that I was switched over to their 5gb. I'm usually on wifi but I'm not looking forward to getting throttled.

Hotspot has the speeds as the cell phone data plan. If you use 5gb in a week then the hotspot is not going help you. your going to pay $79.99 for 10gb of data with a hotspot.

What is the cheapest data plan you can get for the Sensation?

I'm a freshman in college & I wanted to know what's the cheapest data plan I could get for the Sensation. The school I go to can get 4G speeds but the only time I will probably use the data is when I'm home, otherwise I'm using my school's WiFi.

Just an upsell to force people to buy more data than they need and pay more. I hate this, they did it to their texting plans recently, and I got forced into a higher one because I requested to change my plan for only that month and then have it go back automatically (which I've done plenty of times when I go over) and then they changed the tiers between that call and the next month and wouldn't change it back.
If they made the bottom $20 tier something like 500 MB to 1 GB, that'd be another matter, but they know where the sweet spot is and they don't want to sell you that.
Plus they start throttling speeds when you hit like 1.5 GB, so it's not like you can even get what you pay for.

They need a way to make up for that money they lost with that tmobile deal.

The reason why they don't throttle tiered plans is that they want you to burn through your data faster.

Well...yeah....they want you to pay for what you use, thus why they throttle unlimited plans and then suggest user switch to the tiered plan to avoid throttling
Sprint is the lone unlimited unthrottled left (though if you read the verbage closely they do reserve the right to throttle/modify/cancel your service at any time)
Hell they canceled my service for excessive roaming on an unlimited everything plan.
As for the new tiers...nothing has chanhed that much pther than the 300mb plan. Its still roughly $10/gb ...isnt that what it was before (i am on unlimited so I honestly domt remember)
250mb was $15
2 gb was $20
4 gb was $40 or something along those lines...then they had tethering or pro plans

WEAK SAUCE!!
Phuck AT&T for xrists sake holding that data so close to your chest and it may just
end up drowning you one day.
The plans have not changed in pricing at all.
I am currently on 2gb mo and since I activated my Rocket I have been buzzing right through it.. example with my cappy I would stay under 2gb consistently and use wifi when possible. Now the Rocket just sops it up. Passed my 2Gb within the first 2 days on my first month.. took 2 weeks to hit 2 on the second month.
With each additional Gb costing $10 (outrageous!!!)
I have NO INCENTIVE to boost my plan to the 4-5 Gb plan.. As it is now I will pay for how much I use.. No Gb going to waste. $20+2Gb was my first LTE month equalling $40 thats, same cost as the tiered 4 gig plan! This month I tried to limit use but for some reason watching the SAME amount of youtubes and Downloading APKs et all IS USING MORE DATA THAN IT DID ON THE CAPTIVATE ... I really meant to track every bit of this month to catch AT&T miscalculating my DATA USE.. alas an unplanned night at a friends with my MHL adapter on hand and TUBE got outa control and I lost track right away. I really have been meaning to exclusively track the data cost of a day/week/months of google VOIP (goog voice) for ALL calls instead of using plan minutes.
Back to my suggestion.. Throw tiered data subscribers a bone here.. give the $40 a month user 6 gigs instead of 4.. give the $20 subscriber 3 Gigs... Adding incentive by way of an extra gig for $5 or two (on the bigger plan) for $5 each x2.
Show the subscribers who stuck with you while you played favorites with your iPhone darlings. We suffered dropped calls and lousy coverage while your lines were inundated with exclusive iPhone users clamoring for the only company with the apple phone. We waited for you to unveil LTE (and many still are waiting!) and now you claim the country's fastest network..WELL LET YOUR SUBS USE IT!!!
Time to pony up the data guy.. we been waiting for it.. Be honest the AT&T show was pretty weak during the 3g era.. that's putting it nicely.. You care about OUR money? show me.

It's just another way to rip money from our wallets. Me and my wife's usage won't change but we'll have to spend more money. F--k you AT&T.

am I crazy for being tempted to switch off unlimited for the $50/5 gb/tethering option?
i tether lightly and usually my usage is around 1gb-2gb. i could tether more (w/o running the risk of being the subject of AT&T's ire) and not worry about throttling.
it's basically paying an extra $20 so i can tether and avoid throttling.

In general terms, mobile bandwidth is at 80% capacity at any given time. I work for an isp, and we refer to that as high bandwidth utilization. In Europe,and in parts of Asia, the bandwidth utilization really isn't an issue. Here in the US, it's about the infrastructure. Phone makers, and app developers are encouraging the use of greater data consumption by the consumer, but the carriers are providing plans for the consumer, nor are they upgrading their infrastructure quickly enough to help with the problem.

Unlimited Data & Native Hotspot

I have grandfathered unlimited data & also grandfathered unlimited data hotspot from verizon. I think I pay $30 monthly for the hotspot feature. I know there are many ROMS that have native tethering without having a hotspot subscription.
What I am wondering is if I cancelled my hotspot, would I be able to use the phone's unlimited data plan to use insane amounts of tethered datas? The month I moved and was without internet for a month I used 70+ GB on my hotspot (which has unlimited data) and Verizon never made a peep. I gather from "openyoureyes" recent post that he uses 55+ GB of data every month without a word from Verizon. I don't know if any of that is tethered.
Does anyone use native tethering on an unlimited plan, using lots of tethered data without incident? I guess I'm asking if Verizon has any way to know if your unlimited data is being used by your phone or a tethered device if you use native tethering?
Thanks

I use anywhere from 50-80 gigs a month and Verizon hasn't complained. I don't have a tethering/mobile hotspot plan but I do have my beloved grandfathered unlimited data and I use the native mobile hotspot a lot...been doing this for at least 2 years.

Did Verizon not lose a class action over charging for LTE hot spot some thing about breech of deal with the spectrum and them agreeing to not charge for the feature.

Yeah, for tiered data subscribers. Unlimited subscribers is kinda a grey zone.

Correct, but that is for the "new plans", the ones with limited data use. I don't know if they specifically say NOT unlimited, but it wasn't intended for us. However, I don't think it would be hard to dispute if they randomly tried charging you extra.
I use about 40GB a month, most is from normal use. Maybe 10GB is from tethering... I try to do most of my downloading through my phone so they don't try to get me for tethering. I can literally do anything I want from my phone that my laptop can do (in terms of data use), its just a little more convent to tether sometimes.
