Hi all,
Just found out about this plan being eliminated - had I known this I would have stayed with ATT or looked at other alternatives. This unlimited global data plan to me was the biggest selling point.
Just became customer this past November and had used it during a trip to the Philippines in December.
Upcoming trip to Japan next week and will be there for 1 month+. Just called Global Support this morning to activate the plan again only to find out it had been discontinued.
Has anyone found a way or had success getting out of their contract? I feel that I have been misled - the premise under which I agreed to a 2 year contract has now changed.
No way I am going to pay 20/mb for data. ( I had a big scare while in the Philippines with a text msg saying I'd incurred $2k in roaming charges and hadn't even been there 10 hours)
Since Japan does not use SIM cards (as far as I know anyway, I had purchased an ATT Nokia 6350 last year specifically for Japan because it was CDMA or WCDMA capable), does anyone that regularly travels there have any reasonable alternatives?
Is it possible to root the D2G or whatever and get a data package from NTT Docomo or one of the other carriers?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
