[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 3353850, member: 24583"] Taking a look at Google Fi here. Not using them yet, but they use two of the carriers I currently use. On one my cell phone is $60/mo with 2GB. The other is a hot spot which just changed to 20GB for $80/mo. If I can not use my existing hot spot but could come up with a spare phone to use to tether, on one Google FI plan ( I will call it plan A) I would be 22GB/device to share to get 44GB/month before throttling for $120/mo + taxes. On their other plan, (I will call it plan B ) looks like I would be $36/mo for the two phones at 10GB total, then I can pay $10/GB up to 10GB ($100) Then there are no extra charges for a total of (posted on their site) $135. Now, they do not say that you would be throttled back after that max of paying for that next 10GB at $10/GB or not. I need to do some checking with them to find out. In any case, now paying $60/mo phone + $80/mo hotspot = $140/mo for phone and 22GB total vs Google FI plan A of $120 phone and 44GB between two phones. (might have to come up with another phone, broken screen or something like that for sharing the tethering) or plan B, two phones $135 max billing that might or might not be throttled afterward. Yep, got to do some checking. [/QUOTE]
