I think the plain truth is people don't use all the massive data packages when the SIM is in a phone, and the telco's know this. I'd love to see data on how much of those huge packages actually gets used in reality.
But when the SIM is in a router connected to multiple devices in the home, there's every likelihood that the data will all be eaten.
So it's a scam indeed, and they're all at it.
Where's the regulator?
Instead of spinning and confusing consumers/subscribers of calling their plans as UNLIMITED, they should just straightforwardly mention the FUP quota is 200GB with a speed throttling on their plans.
Why they caused so much confusion by naming their plans Unlimited but comes with speed throttling and only can be used in phones?
Best model with good honesty is still Tune Talk.
Upright tells you how much quota is given, no device limitations, entire quota is hotspot-able, can be utilized as unified quota for both 5G/4G whichever works best for you.
Most misleading Unlimited plans now are by UMobile and Hotlink Prepaid. Joining the are both YES and Unifi Mobile.
I read in the other Unifi Mobile thread some people complaining their line just got barred because their telco detected them using their unlimited plans for unrecognized devices even when they were legitimate phones from overseas market.
