AT&T Usage Caps U-verse GigaPower at 1TB/Month; Usual Overlimit Fees Apply

Phillip Dampier April 23, 2014 AT&T, Consumer News, Data Caps 6 Comments

rethink attAT&T has usage capped its heavily promoted U-verse GigaPower fiber to the home service at 1TB a month, according to fine print appearing on communications sent to customers.

Any customer that exceeds 1TB of usage per month will be subject to AT&T’s usual overlimit fees: $10 for each additional 50GB of data sent or received. At least AT&T currently caps the maximum overlimit fee at $30 for its fiber customers.

Many Austin GigaPower customers are signing up for the company’s Premier package, which includes a waiver of equipment, installation, and activation fees and provides 36 months of fixed rates and free HBO and HD service along with 300/300Mbps broadband.

Enrolling in a discounted promotional plan does mean you consent to allow AT&T to collect information about your browsing habits through deep packet inspection.

i haven’t heard of anyone on u-verse being charged i know dal is enforcing the cap. If they are enforcing the cap that would be very stupid if at&t is trying too compete with google

I’ve never been billed for overages on uverse, and just upgraded to gigapower 300/300. And I’ve done multiple terabytes worth of data downloads a month. Hopefully that doesn’t change with gigapower.

If you haven’t seen overage fees yet it’s usually because they give u a 3 month warning before hitting you with overage fees. Then every month after the 3rd month you went over they’ll hit you with the overcharge fees.
