As a long time AT&T customer, this does more than irritate. I down right pisses me off. The simple answer is that I am grandfathered in with the unlimited data plan. Point 1 - AT&T advertised and sold this plan as UNLIMITED data Point 2 - AT&T routinely advertises that they have the fastest 3G network
Under AT&T's current plan to throttle, AT&T only gets to pick ONE thing that they still offer (either fastest 3G or UNLIMITED), and then they are guilty of FALSE advertising on the other -- IT"S JUST THAT SIMPLE. Ultimately, we should ALL call them on it, even if it means long lines at the courthouse for each of our small claims.
The reality here is that the merger was never going to work, it was a "bonehead" idea from the beginning and the "adjustment" to cover the cost should come out of the AT&T Executive Bonus Plan. The Board of Directors and stockholders ought to be able to figure that one out.
But, if AT&T steals the cost out of the customer's pockets then it will indeed be time to find other carriers.
