Fair is fair...I want what I paid for when I signed my contract,no more no less...Seems like there should be a lawsuit against all carriers who "throttle" their customer's data speed.So I suppose I will now have to start to throttle my monthly payments back to them,based on how much money I have at the time my payment is due...I know that this is not in my original contract but neither is the "bull manure" they are trying to pull on all of us!!!

If you had bothered to read your contract you would know that you DID INDEED 'sign up for this'...

Or perhaps I will let Gene Wilder explain it

That is what we used to fantasize saying to customers whenever they disputed their contract when I worked in customer service... 🤣

OK. So an army of their lawyers drafted a massive terms and conditions in mice type over multiple pages. OK? I do think that contract folks should be allowed out free-of-charge if they want. If it was in their terms and conditions that they could murder your family would that be all good too? Just because they put vague, all-encompassing rights in their contracts doesn't make this right. How about if they put in the contracts that they can double the rates month-to-month and you as a consumer can't do a thing about it but go to their arbitration kangaroo court where they win 90+% of the time?

Courts are beginning to rule against these corporation lawyers who draft such legal document ...

Unlimited means unlimited.


Yes, but "unlimited" does not mean "unrestricted."

Never has, never will.

They are restricting their customers 3G, thereby falsifying their unlimited 3G claim.

Actually, they are limiting the speed in which you can use your unlimited amounts of data. There's a soft cap, not a hard cap line the tier plans.

By limiting the speed, they are limiting the data that can be used. Certain applications will not work properly or at all at 1X speeds.
