The problem is Walmart advertises the so-called "UNLIMITED" everything plans as substantially similar to plans of the major carriers' 4g LTE services (which if you an still get it, cost 200 - 350% higher priced plus added taxes and fees).. that is to say you should expect to see the better speeds at a lower price....

When their marketing hype doesn't match the terms of service, that sends a mixed message where customers can sue based on advertiser (deceptive) claims. Plenty of companies do this (if you've seen ads from the nutritional supplement industry and just about ANY infomercial you happen to see), but seldom do they get caught because their TOS are generally rock solid.

** BTW, I also remember ABC running a part of their news program on how to "save money" by ditching post paid for prepaid and it being substantially the same service parroting how Walmart and Tracfone's units Straight Talk and Net 10 advertise. So, maybe they should be sued too.
