The new ??unlimited?? data plans from T-Mobile

T-Mobile has done.
The new “Value” plans will be made available on July 24 and the idea is that you can get access to T-Mobile’s 4G network (let’s not open the whole “what is 4G?” can of worms again) in a “more affordable” way. They say that these plans offer “unlimited data” but then they immediately say that they come with “2GB, 5GB, or 10GB of high-speed data ― with no data overage charges.”
So, they just cut you off when you reach your cap rather than throttling you down? It’s not exactly unlimited when you have a limit set at those specific numbers. To be fair, most users aren’t going to use all that much data, but you can’t market these plans as having unlimited data when it’s clearly limited. An example they give is the $49.99 per line Value family plan “with unlimited talk, unlimited text and unlimited data with 2 GB of high-speed data.” It’s not unlimited data!! Grr…
