Days of unlimited internet for AT&T customers are over.
For all you AT&T user out there, your unlimited internet downloads have been capped. Traditional DSL users will be capped at 150 GB per month and subscribers to the fire-backed UVerse system will have a 250-GB limit, and any usage over that will result in $10/month for 50 GB.
The company says that as of right now only around 2% use that much data a month.
So how does the company plan to handle that 2% of people?
In a statement from AT&T they said:We are committed to providing a great experience for all of our Internet customers. Less than 2 percent of our Internet customers could be impacted by this approach - those who are using a disproportionate amount of bandwidth. We will communicate early and often with these customers so they are well aware of their options before they incur any additional usage charges.
AT&T isn't the first large broadband provider to impose caps, Comcast and Time Warner have also done the same.
