My 4G LTE is now magically fixed at max 1.5mbps Last month's usage was about 200gb. cmon verizon seriously :(they've been fairly public about 'unlimited' != "unlimited"I have no issues with a cap, however I have huge issues when a company is allowed to call a capped service "unlimited". I think it's straight up false advertising, and I really wish some state AG's would take up the issue.
ya see that little * next to the 'unlimited' in the ad, right? :(
But what's more interesting is that Verizon's contract for LTE has _the exact same cap as 3G service_, 5Gb. If Chris is really getting 200Gb before being capped, that is impressive. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2373767,00.asp PCMag did the math, you can use up the 5GB alotment in 32 minutes with LTE. Seems like as the speeds get faster the cap should get larger, doesn't it?
airtime is still the same price for the carrier... -chris (note that i believe almost all of these arguments are complete bs... and said as much at the mic in denver)
