Phone Plan?

I plan to get the iPhone "6S" if it comes out this year. Do any of you know what would be the cheapest unlimited data plan in the U.S? Some people don't use a lot of data per month but I find myself using certain applications like Netflix quite often. Oh and before you judge, I've owned Apple products my entire life and I really don't want to switch to anything else so don't tell me how the Galaxy or some shit is better than the iPhone "because of reasons."

Now, you know what you can expect from these barbarians. They are a race of rabid BASTARDS that will fight us tooth and nail! But they don't know what they're up against. Cyrodiil, is CIVILIZATION! Cyrodiil, is ORDER! Cyrodiil is POWER! And out here, WE. ARE. CYRODIIL.

Really, i gotta hand it off to T-Mobile. 50 bucks. Unlimited 4G LTE. Cricket, which I have, is 40 bucks unlimited, though it's just 1GB high speed, then it gets throttled.

Well, really, now it's Cricket, it's only 40 bucks, though it's not unlimited 4G LTE. Hope that isn't much of a dealbreaker.

In all honestly Straight Talk is the thing I've actually stuck with. I've got a gsm phone so it runs off of AT&T network around here and it's only $45 a month. Everything is unlimited and I haven't had a problem. Just check your coverage for AT&T in the area because if the phone's gsm that's what you'll be using.

Honestly I cant recommend anything but T-Mobile at this point. There coverage is pretty good(check your coverage first) and their speeds are top notch(At this point, as fast or faster than Vzw and AT&T). I've only been on T-Mobiles unlmited plan for 2 days, but so far I am impressed. I have used about 6Gb and haven't experienced any slow downs or "you better stop" messages, which is really nice(since I still have a full month to go lol). Their unlimited plan is kind of pricey($80 for the first line), but it includes a subscription to Rhapsody unRadio which is alright and 5Gb of hotspot data, however there are other benefits at well. The only other Unlimited plans from other carriers is Sprint, which from my experience has been unreliable and consistently slow, and Straight Talk which is sketchy and throttles hard core(usually after 3Gb). Even if you don't go with a unlimited plan with T-Mobile, all of their other plans offer unlimited reduced speed data at no extra cost, so you don't have to worry about the service being cut or additional costs(speeds are at 128kbps, which is pretty slow).

^^I used 2+Gb out of 1Gb, at no extra cost. Brilliant.

 

And just to clarify: I do not work for T-Mobile and am not affiliated in any way other than being a regular customer. I've just been F***ed over by Verizon, At&t, Sprint, and AT&t's MVNO's, so I like to recommend carriers that offer a great value while caring about the customer.

I think that's what I'm gonna have to go with. I see no other decent options as far as an "unlimited" plan goes.
