I have an att unlimited plan since the blackberry days... I've always been hesitant to change my plan because I didn't want to lose my unlimited. Walked into att yesterday and see they have a new unlimited family plan, for cheaper that what I'm paying for myself and the family currently.

Dude said no catch, and when they ever get rid of the current unlimited, I'd be grandfathered into that new one if I decide to change...

Seems too good to be true... am I missing something? Or just being too skeptical?

Being too skeptical. Tmo Verizon and att been going at it with unlimited plans these past couple weeks. Verizon is the best deal IMO. I'm paying $87 with unlimited and hotspot plus the best coverage for me between the three.

Due to a past experience, I'd probably never go back to Verizon.

I wonder if there's fine print somewhere, where they can screw you out of the unlimited somewhere down the line?

Every cell phone plan with every carrier has that fine print its just very unlikely they will use it.

I believe after 20 Gb att can throttle you down
Verizon is 22gb
Tmobile is 28gb

So just keep that in mind.
And if I'm not mistaken you need to have u verse or direct to be able to get their unlimited .

I stayed with my Tmobile grandfathered unl. I can take a good 150 off on my bill by switching it but I see too many complaints on a daily basis to want to deal with it .

I upgraded from 16 to 64 gb iPhone 6s.

It's amazing how much more music and photos I can fit on my cellphone now

Been with T-Mobile like 8years now. Was grandfathered on the unlimited plan as well, however last 3 or more months I've gotten that 28gb limit nonsense with warning of throttling IF ON CONGESTED TOWER [emoji]128563[/emoji]. Might as well lower this bill if I can't get my 60GBs+ I'm use to.

 

[s dubl]

Att has been throttling after 22gbs for a couple years now. I get the text almost every month. It's really not even that big of a difference most of the time.

enjoy, no need to struggle anymore lol

 

[heliumclinton]

Funny I have a 128GB and I barely used half the space because I stream music now does feel nice to just download random apps without worrying about space though

I got a 64 GB too, Spotify and Google Photos have cleared up a ton of room on my phone. If I end up getting the iPhone 7s/8, I might just go with the 32GB.

Be careful for those upgrading to the new unlimited plans because if you have a FAN discount on your account it won't work for the unlimited plans just a heads up.

 

[capital sb]

Just switched from the ATT Unlimited Data plan via Direct TV to the new Unlimited Plus plan . 10GB of hotspot per device FTW.

If you grandfathered ATT Unlimited people stay on the old plan your crazy. They are finally giving us hotspot thanks to all of the other providers

Just noticed this, oh well lol i'll take it for the hotspot.

you mean ATT fan accounts?!

 

[umheat361]

spoke to someone over chat and wifey's discount for memorial wouldn't work on the new unlimitted plans. 

We had just recently switched to the 16gb plan and no overages so sticking with that since her discount works on it.

this is true....I was able to switch to the Original (not the old school grandfathered unlimted) Unlimited plan from 2wks ago on att and i'm sticking with this one.  The new one is a little more, and you can't use your olam/corp discount.  So I'm saving approx $25+ a month by not moving to this **updated unlimited plan**

When I select "change plan" ....here are the comparisons:

I'm still getting my fan discount! Made that clear the day I switched! I think it just takes 2 billing cycles to kick in, I would call att back if I was you.

I thought this was the case when I read it online. Imma call to verify this, if so that's great for us.

How do you go about getting the "fan discount" actually don't believe I know about it.

 

[davizzy]

How do you go about getting the "fan discount" actually don't believe I know about it.

You sign up with an employer/school email to verify. You get a certain percentage off each month depending on the employer/school.

My bad, yeah I actually have this. Didn't know what it was called though,

Never mind just called them back and they said the fan discount doesn't apply towards the bill, but does apply towards other stuff like "accessories " they lied to me! Oh well is only a matter of time before they decide to apply it anyway.

 

[HankHill]

I think thats the case with Verizon new unlimited plan. They don't offer any corporate discounts on the service, only military/veteran discount. Corporate discounts can still be applied to the tiered GB plans.
