When the data runs out

60GB included, then slowed.

When the 60GB runs out, you're slowed to 1.5Mbps instead of being cut off or charged. That is enough for messages and maps, but slow for video. Whether unused data carries over is not recorded for this plan, so check the Critical Information Summary.

Is it good value?

  • Year one works out at $0.39 a GB, the 9th cheapest of the 27 plans we track.
  • Most of the saving comes from the deal: without it, the first year would cost $720.
  • There is no lock-in contract, so you can leave when a cheaper plan turns up.
