It is clear that the Verizon data plan changes have had a big impact on the industry! Almost all of the networks have announced big changes coming to their cell phone plans. Here is a summary of what is coming.
AT&T
There will soon be no overage charges when you go over your data plan. AT&T will be offering new Mobile Share Advantage Plans.
Instead of being charged extra, data speeds will drop to a maximum of 128 kbps. Verizon recently started offering “safety mode” which essentially offers the same thing. You can go here for a comparison of the plans and prices.
The changes will begin 8/21.
T-Mobile
If you have T-Mobile, there are also some big changes coming your way. Starting 9/6/16, they are offering straightforward plans. The best part: the plans include unlimited data. There are some limits that will slow down speeds though so be sure to read all of the fine print.

1st line $70
2nd line $50
3rd to 8th line – $20
