Can I still downsize to chunked data like before? I'm on the 10gb/month plan but that's far too much and I was planning on going down to like, 4-6 or whatever.

In non nerd talk please It's basically a lovely price for an "unlimited" plan that isn't really unlimited. If you want to watch HD videos over their network they will gladly take your money for that.

Is there any way to use other services like Verizon, but throttle your own video streaming speeds so they don't use up all your data? I honestly like the Binge On data throttling, I fall in the group that finds it "practically indistinguishable" on my phone.

The only case where I really see existing customers benefiting at all is one where (a) someone uses a LOT of data on (b) something that isn't streaming music or video (which is already 'unlimited' on many of their plans). Or, I guess, large families who all have/need phones. People who want HD video and/or to use a hotspot are obviously going to pay a premium under this plan, but I also can't imagine that most people couldn't get the data use they want cheaper under one of T Mobile's current rate plans. (I sure as hell won't be abandoning the nerd plan until/unless they make me.)

In non nerd talk please The 6GB plan with bingeon turned off gets you $10 less per month, with plenty of data for almost anybody, and doesn't limit you on HD video or tethering.

But it just makes the new plan make even less sense, since who the hell wants a plan with dial up hot spot speeds and SD video quality to save $25? If you use that much data in non media use, you really want the current unlimited plan, not this new bullshit.

It's extreme backpedaling and they've won the gold medal. There's no way that it doesn't have to do with the immediate backlash.

I wonder how much longer I can keep my 5 year old plan, $70 for unlimited 4gLTE speeds for 1 line. The equivalent now with Tmobile ONE is $70 (unlimited SD) + $25 (for HD). I need to check to see if they try to gently caress me over. I don't really tether much, but I wonder if they'll force 2g speeds. That and I need to check to see if I keep 4gLTE speeds up to at least 26 gb.

Man I sure am glad I jumped on the 2 lines unlimited everything +7GB of tether for $100 promo. I'm not letting this thing go ever. No BingeON, no worries about data caps and great service where I live. They won't try to bump me from the plan if/when I get a new phone, will they?

New number for my sim? Do I need a whole new sim? I use Google voice as my main number. I moved and I figure I'll get the sim-number with a local area code so I can have a new set of telemarketers and debt collectors call me all day.

gently caress, I accidentally clicked "download now" on this Android 7 update and it destroyed my data cap. I'm trying to find where I can buy another gig of data but it doesn't seem to exist anymore? edit- I can't buy more data. They restarted my billing cycle as of today so I'm back on data. Also, I got a new phone number. I was doing this through chat support and didn't realize that I was also on a conference call, which I got cut off from when they switched my number. Oops.

wormil posted:Someone claiming to be tmobile called a newly activated line on my plan (activated yesterday evening) to say thank you (they had my name) and said to tell me the new line wasn't on easypay but I can add it anytime I like. My wife handled the call and just said okay and hung up. I called tmobile and they say it wasn't them, suggested it was a phishing scam, and offered to change the number. But how could someone have gotten all that information that quickly and if it was a phishing scam why didn't they ask for any personal information. According to my wife they just said to pass the information along to me. Update on this. TM has their head way up their rear end on this one. It was TM that called. Some knucklehead added a $45/month data plan to my account that already has data and the extra plan is being billed separately. They wouldn't allow me to make the change online or in chat, had to be voice so I wouldn't have a written record and they could gently caress it up at their leisure. I'm learning to hate tmobile. I had years of good service until Legere took over.

Look at the notes about it and you'll see they are removing your "data stash" as well. Apparently data stash is counted against them on their books, so because you're not in a contract they are wiggling out of it. Granted unlimited until 2019 is nice, but that old data stash could be used for anything (including tethering). It's very shady IMO.
