[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.

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.

AT&T New Unlimited Data Plan!.. (10238976 MB allowace)

Has anyone recently checked their AT&T account in regards to their unlimited LTE data plan?
My features are correct when checked "LTE Smartphone unlimited personal add-on", selected
Usage data usage reports 545.64 of 10238976 MB
The ? mark bubble when hovered states:

an additional 1KB will be automatically added at a cost of $null.
Your Data usage is current as of 09:06:34 11/20/2011"

That is 9,999GB. Do you really think you'll go over that? Computers use numbers; I'm sure its just some sort of visual representation, while also being ridiculously large to ensure you don't surpass it.

How did you get that plan option? or is it just a grandfathered plan?

LOL!!!! AT&T strikes again. So what's the point of using LTE if its constantly throttled?

exactly.
vz isnt much better.. id kinda rather be throttled then get overage charges weekly (if i was on any other carrier or on a tiered plan with att)
will make another complaint to the fcc this time it will be on price fixing between the big three.

That sucks! Denver doesn't have LTE yet, but I decided to sell my Skyrocket on eBay. Didn't want to be throttled on the LTE plan when only using HSPA+.. I average at least 5 - 6GB a month.. wasn't going to stick around and find out if I reached the top 5% on the LTE plan, when only using the slower network.
I'll wait until more coverage becomes active and reaching the top 5% is a long shot!

There's not unlimited anymore because AT&T doesn't want it around, point blank. It has very little to do with the users. It's statements such as yours that justifies their actions and allows them to slide under the radar. Don't blame your peers, blame the company gouging you for profits.

Mine still says: 5287.95 MB of Unlimited, and I have 20 days left in my cycle and I have never been throttled with my data usage and no, I don't tether but I do stream alot of movies to my phone, which is a Nokia N8 (a non-smartphone in the eyes of AT&T) I love how I can get the cheaper non-smartphone unlimited data plan and it is all within the limits of my contract. Just another win for us Nokia fanboys!! Hell, the N8 has more usable features than most of the phones out now. I love the fact that I can connect a portable hard drive up to the phone and play movies onto a HDTV via HDMI or just over wifi and play it on my PS3 or xbox360, the 12mp camera with a real xenon flash and not some ****ty LED flash, Battery life is awesome, 48gb of memory, FM transmitter (because Ipod docks are for *******!!), and if I wanted to say **** AT&T and switch over to T-Mobile, then I could without having to get a new phone because it works on T-mobiles 3g network as well.

I'm on virgin in canada and last month i used 42gb on my unlimited plan...

no fair i was on t-mobiles $20/month plan with 10gb/month and they 'changed' the plan without notice. so now i'm stuck with 5gb...

I'm only at about 1g use right now, work and home wifi (poor signal area) has been keeping my mobile data use down since I got this phone. I'll probably use about 3gigs next month though. Btw, I can see this thread creating some tension with those who don't have unlimited.

Purpose of this thread....Help show why Verizon did away with unlimited data?

No wonder why they are eliminating unlimited, what the heck do you do on your phone to use 28Gb? (tethering i assume)

haha nice. last semester in college, my wired connection wasn't working so i had to 'illegally' tether my atrixs' hspa+ for a week. used about 15gb in a week to watch live streams of the us open. thank god for unlimited data

with the extra ram this phone makes actual real life data speeds sooooo much faster than my other lte phones could do. I'm at 39 gigs so far with billing cycle ending the 29th. And that's without even having the gs3 the whole time, wonder what ill get to next month? Btw no tethering here, I just really like watching HD video
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Not too bad methinks..

I have to laugh at all the people who say a few of us who use high amounts of data is why a carrier will remove unlimited data for everyone. So they feel bitter at us for ruining it for everyone else and would rather blame us than their service provider, since its easier.
Oh please, don't you think these carriers would have just throttled or kicked off us few users, instead of forcing tiered plans on all their customers? Its all because of further maximizing profit, not because of us.

Doesn't bother me at all, I still have unlimited data just can't see how people are able to use that much data on a phone in a month.
Must have to have the phone plugged in all the time.
Most I have ever been able to do is 13 GB. I really had to try for that though.

Since July 9th.:
554 MB on Verizon
Since June 24th:
5.58 GB over wi-fi

all sarcasm aside, has anyone ever actually had a problem with using verizons network that can be attributed to data hogs? this isnt 2007 and im not in att using an iphone. big deal, i use a lot of data that i pay for so what. any other user on verizon canuse the exact same amoutn of data as i choose to use bc verizon doesnt throttle the 4g speeds, youll just have to pay more than my price for it. dont hate those of us lucky enough to use all the data we want without paying any overage unless you also go around hating every verizon employee for getting a company discount on the same sevice you pay for. also, those of us on verizon who no longer have the unlimited data plan have access to a discount on upgrades that the unlimited users dont have the smae access to but we sure dont go around flaming others for only having to pay $199 for our $599 phones. every thing is a trade off

Yay for forced data limits/throttle in the future. Vzw doesn't guarantee any "grandfathering". It says right in the contract they can change terms on you and it gives you a free out to go to other carriers. The whole –look at what I can do is quite childish. Whatever.
Heck I use 30gb at home on Cox between two computers and a ps3 and pay for 50gb

A guy over on the Rezound forums hit 1TB. I'm sitting at about 9GB this month.
And for the people bleating about this being why they did away with unlimited data--no. Just shut up. They did it out of pure greed. LTE is cheap, and for every person using 30gb there's 10 people using 500mb. Verizon might be losing money on some customers, but in the aggregate, they were still making money hand over fist, even with unlimited data. But they can make more with shared/tiered. Guess which they went with?

I'm normally around wifi except when I go workout so I rarely break 2gb. Even so I have no problems with data hogs. I've worked a number of years at an isp and I can tell you data hogs are not the problem unless if the network engineers are total idiots. A properly managed network will prevent heavy users from bogging down the network during peak usage.
But many of you guys buy right into the carrier's manufactured bandwidth crisis so they can justify charging $15 per gb.

I consistently use around 500MB a month, how do you use 20GB?
Seriously though, of course it was a ploy to get rid of the grandfathered plans, to a degree. Considering ATT said at one time that most people use less than 2GB of data and Verizon's site suggests that most people use between 1-3GB of data, I don't see what the problem is allowing those on unlimited data plans to remain so. Thankfully, I have WiFi.

For some there are. When we came back to Verizon from Sprint we piggy backed off of my in laws business plan. Him switching to share everything dropped his account by $150 and that is AFTER adding our 3 lines. I just use WiFi when I'm home, our home internet is unlimited through our local telephone company.

Well, I have a 10Gb limit / week at college, so all of my big downloads go onto the data plan. This month I downloaded autocad inventor 2013 for giggles. But at work I am constantly using google drive to transfer photos from my phone to use in my work place. I'm taking about 100-200 pictures a day of various tests. It is just easier to transfer them that way than pulling out the usb drive and fussing with drivers on corporate computers.

Yeah i didnt have $600 to pay for the phone to keep my unlimited plan. So i got pushed onto the 2gb plan last week when i upgraded the phone. Is there any way I can get unlimited back??

Lesson learned, don't take free upgrades.... you don't need the latest greatest phone for cheaper more than you need a lower bill. Wait a few months then buy one in the xda classifieds when the next greatest phone comes out. Tons of people will be clamouring to trade or sell there three month old phone. Then they can get enough money so there one week paycheck plus what ever they sell there phone for will give them enough to purchase the galaxy s4.
It happens in cycles here, I bought a galaxy nexus for 250 on eBay like new for Verizon about a month ago. When this phone first came out it was going for close to 600 or more in the forums. Grant it, it is getting older but the tech really is not improving much. Unless you think a quad core will make a difference playing angry birds?
I will never willingly give up my unlimited data for the next best device. I may be behind, but guess what I'm streaming data over 4g in my house that has an unlimited Wi-Fi connection already, and i don't care.

Honestly,
Firstly, verizon has a pretty great network.
I came from ATT and I can attest to the problems they have with data. Being that I lived in Las Vegas, a highly urbanized center with over a million people, and actually one of the very first 3g networks in the country, a place that should (that is SHOULD) have a massive infrastructure, I can tell you that ATT has huge issues in terms of network reliability and consistency.
So now it comes to Verizon and their network. Seeing as they have invested a massive amount into building a pretty good 4G LTE network, and that they honestly do provide great service, is it too much to ask them to want to make a profit? Probably not.
Do not get me wrong, I am not in any way saying that they do not make enough money. My recent arguments with them that led me to nearly leave them should prove that. I managed to get my way, but that way actually involved me having to also give up my unlimited data plan.
What are you doing each month that requires 20gb of data. I would wager that a lot of that usage would be mobile hotspot, or using your phone in a rather unconventional manner.
So now the question is whether it is reasonable to expect you as the end user to use their product as they would imagine you should. You are not racking up 20 gigabytes of usage being an average user, are you?
So then they come out with tiered plans.
Guess what, you choose what fits your needs, and make concessions. We all do this every day. You do not NEED to have a car that goes 250 mph, you may purchase one, and you pay a huge premium for that.
Back to the point here.
For years and years, we in the united states had silver spoons in our mouths in terms of mobile data. It was always unlimited. The minutes and text messages cost us money, and the phone companies could not really monetize data, or they just did not want to until they noticed that they were losing calling minutes and text messages to apps that would do the same things.
Now they want to charge for the services they provide.
And people suddenly have an ISSUE with this?
Do you pay a flat rate for all you can consume water?
Or heating oil, natural gas or whatever else you use to keep warm in the winter?
Does Shell or Exxon sell you an all you can eat plan for gasoline?
Does water flow free, as much as you can use, forever and ever?
Data is more like a utility than ever, and in the coming years, decades, etc the world and commerce will be largely measured in access to data and services.
Just deal with it, and learn to connect to wifi, or do whatever else you need to do without sucking bandwidth and then complaining when they want to make you know... money off of you for using THEIR services.

So can i still cancle the phone upgrade and go back to the dinc? And will that lead to getting my old plan back? Ive only had the phone for week.

Are you on T-Mobile? They recently added a new data plan that is unlimited, unrestricted data use even past 5 GB. For me, it was the same exact price that I was already paying. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure it's the same price as the previous 5 GB plan.

I'm a family plan and didn't have to pay extra for it. I assumed it would be the same for anyone also already on a 5 GB plan.

I had a 5gb limit on a family plan and I upgraded to their truly unlimited plan and I saved money. (five dollars to be exact)

You are looking at the classic plan. As I said look for the Value plan. Otherwise there is no other way of getting unlimited internet.

Also since you are probably on the 100 min unlimited plan then you can jump on the 500min unlimited plan which is $59.99 or the one without unlimited texts for $54.99

Wrong, look at the list.
There is a 200mb option then a 2gig option and then last an unlimited plan which is nearly 1TB.

There is a 69.99 unlimited everything but there is probably a catch lile for new user only with 2 yrs. Agreement

Nope, It does require a 2 year contract but it's not for just new users. It's not a limited time plan or anything.

Damn why can't I just change plan without contract

For me, it would end up costing about $20 more per month as I'm on the value family plan and pay $90 before taxes for 2 lines with unlimited talk, text and 5gb data.
I'd go into a store and see if you can strong arm them into giving you the plan. They hate losing customers since their only advantage is being cheaper, nicer and more open to a range of devices.

That's a lot of advantages lol. I recently switched to Simple Mobile and the speeds are the exact same, signal is the same (uses T-Mobile towers) and I hardly use my phone's data to watch much youtube since there's usually wifi somewhere, including my house. Whoever watches Netflix on their phone via your data connection... you'rs just asking to get capped.

Are you always traveling? Try to use WiFi.

The unlimited data plan tmobile just introduced includes a proxy redirect if you try to tether your phone to another device. If you're blowing through your 5gb cap because all you do is watch youtube and netflix on tmobile, you have two options...choose to loose the ability to tether, and maybe pay a little more.

I get redirect now without. The new plan
