New plans - price way up - data allowance way down...help?!!
We have had HughesNet for almost 2 years - was really tough to adjust to NOT having broadband, but we have been able to do pretty well. I look now and see that the plans that "our area" qualifies for and am in shock! Right now we have Gen 4 Ultra - 50GB Data and 50GB Bonus bytes. Now it looks like there IS not equivalent - the highest amount of Data is 30GB and the price went from $89 to $129? Wow - this is bad. I was never given the option of upgrading to Gen 5 - guessing that location matters - we are in rural North Carolina - and did not know there was a newer (and better??) modem that we could be using? Really need some help here - living on a fixed income, this is rapidly pricing itself out of our possibility. Can someone advise me? I would say I would call but that has been a lesson in torture - obviously the 'help' people - english is not their first language - and frustration mounts pretty quickly when simple things are constantly misunderstood. So starting here, hoping for some good info! Thanks! TrishSolved8.4KViews0likes7Comments
