After reading everything here and at Mobile Internet and at Howard Forum, the AT&T Mobly for $20 a month with 22G unlimited seemed just too good to be true! I have a Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile hotspots already. This completes the set! I want to try them all this summer and deactivate whichever I find lacking in service and performance.
So today I first went to local Best Buy as I have a great relationship there with Geek Squad. Of course, they knew nothing about this plan and insisted that I needed an AT&T smart phone to add this plan on. And they didn't have one in stock.
Next stop AT&T store.....Had no clue until I showed them the article on RVMobileinternet.com. Then they found it. But none in stock. Told me to order it on line.
Went home and called 866-595-1222 the AT&T Mobile Connect department. Took more info from me than I needed to give to buy my house. Then told me it was $40 plus the $20 plus fees. No, I told them to dig deeper or get me a supervisor. On hold for 12 minutes and THEY FOUND IT! She said it was a new plan and that's why she wasn't aware of it. After another 10 minute hold she came back to say they don't have any and it is a discontinued item. "Try to find one on the internet and buy it and bring it to the AT&T store to activate"
Back on the internet and I found three at a Best Buy store about 30 miles away. No time to drive and get it so I ordered it online and they are shipping it. $99 plus tax and free shipping.
Once it comes in I can't wait to see the grief I go through to get it activated.
Stay tuned!
