Millenicom

Anyone looking into Millenicom for your wireless data STAY away. We signed up about 4 months ago paid $164.98 for their equipment it works great. Then we get a notice their monthly rate for 20 GB would increase from $69 a month to $89 a month. If we had known this we would not have bought the equipment. This is an unreasonable increase. only plus side is there is no contract. So we are out $164.98. :S
  • Try and find 20G of data for $89 a month especially with no contract. It ain't gonna happen.
  • Some of us guys " beef" about rising prices because our once fixed income is now a rapidly declining income. (Insurance, fuel, food, taxes etc) You are right about the fact you can't do anything about it, but please let us beef some.
  • Try to find 20GB for anywhere close to $100 anywhere else and you will come up empty unless you select a very restrictive coverage map!! I really don't understand your beef. How much did real beef go up this last year? We are going to pay more and more for everything we use as time goes by - just a fact and nothing we can do about it.

    I heard they was going to increase the cost of using 20GB data... Sorry to hear it actually happened... Just like all of the other Internet providers are doing.

    This was one of the last good deals we had to create a local WIFI hotspot to use with all our units for downstreaming TV programs.

    What other setup would you have gone to for downstreaming large data amounts.

  • The increase was NOT perpetuated by Millenicom, but by Verizon. It is still Waaaay cheaper than paying Verizon for the same 20GB and their customer service is waaaay better than dealing with Verizon. The reason you did not get any notice was that Verizon gave them no notice and basically told them if they did not like it, they would terminate their contract. Put the blame where it is due, NOT on an outstanding company, with an excellent reputation.
