Re: Should we Start Suing Chinese Buffets too? I agree that it is misleading...but TMO is the only one that really is unlimited...except you'll get throttled if you use too much.
The problem I see if they advertised as 20 or 200 or even 10,000GB of internet per month, it will scare customers away who don't understand. Wasn't there an article on here stating that 83% of people don't know what a GB is? The fact is for probably 99% of users 10GB is the same as unlimited.
Technically no internet service on the planet is "unlimited"....you are always limited by your connection speed, etc.
To the user who compared to rental car, what do you think would happen if you rented a car and drove it, say, 30,000 miles in a month? they probably couldn't charge you but I'm sure they'd tell you to take your business elsewhere next time or make you agree to a limit next time. This is effectively what TMO is doing. |
