|  AT&T also added no carrying unused bytes to a new month
...this next part of the revised terms of service affects all DataConnect customers:
quote:
On the 5GB DataConnect Plan, once you exceed your 5GB allowance you will be automatically charged $0.00048 per Kb for any data used. On the 200MB Data Connect Plan, once you exceed your 200MB allowance, you will be automatically charged $10 for an additional 100MB. Unused data from either your initial allowance or any overage allowance (e.g., the 100MB) will not be carried over to the next billing period; all data allowances must be used in the billing period in which the allowance is provided.
Basically, AT&T Wireless wants to spell out that, unlike for voice-plan minutes, it won't carry your unused data to the next month.

| said by iansltx  :Holy crap, $100 per GB!?! Oh wait, Verizon is $256 per GB right? No, with AT&T it's $503.32 per gigabyte.
$.00048 per KB * 1,024 = $.49152 per MB
$.49152 per MB * 1,024 = $503.31648 per GB
So with AT&T, you better be damn sure not to go over!
I bet they just say $.00048 per KB so it sounds better. Thing is, nowadays a KB is jack diddly squat. |

| It is, but only on the 200MB plan.
said by ATT :
On the 200MB Data Connect Plan, once you exceed your 200MB allowance, you will be automatically charged $10 for an additional 100MB. However, if you have the 5GB plan (and practically anybody halfway intelligent will), it's the prices listed above, which translates to $49.15 for the same 100MB. |
