Free Iphone Unlock

There have been reports that mobile network AT&T was throttling down top five percent of the unlimited data plan subscribers to 2G speeds. If that is not enough, there were also reports that some users were downgraded to 2G speeds after the subscribers used less than 2GB of monthly usage.
However, it seems that the law is in favor of the users’ side when a judge in Californian court awarded an iPhone user $850 because AT&T throttled his download speeds last week. If you are one of the AT&T subscribers that fall into the trap of this network, you can also file a lawsuit against the company and get some of your money back. Bradley Sniderman, an attorney from Southern California has 5 tips for you on how to file a small claim lawsuit
1) Where to file — most lawsuits, even those from small claims, need to be filed in the jurisdiction where the defendant can be found. In this case (and let’s use AT&T), AT&T may have corporate offices in only a few locations, but since they are a nationwide phone company, they are usually subject to jurisdiction anywhere. What this means is that you can file your small claims suit in the courthouse most convenient to you.
2) Make sure you have a copy of your contract, and please review the entire agreement. It may be a slow read, but you need to know the terms of it. You may be able to use these terms to show that AT&T does not have the right to slow your data speed.
3) You need to be able to show that you have an unlimited data plan, which means you are entitled to unlimited data. You need to also show proof that AT&T had limited your data streaming. You next have to argue that AT&T has no right to charge you a fee for unlimited data, and then not supply it. It is not your fault that AT&T can’t keep up with demand for data. If you can even show that you are using less data that some of the fixed rate plans, such as the 3 gigabyte plans, that is even better (fixed plans using more data than you use, but they are not being throttled back). Make sure you have been paying your bill on time and that you are not late, since that could be used against you.
4) Make sure you have an amount for damages. You need to show how you were damaged by not having data streaming. This could be by showing lost business opportunities or showing how much you have paid for the service you never got.
5) Be polite, and make sure you are prepared. The court will listen to you, but if you don’t know what you are talking about, then your argument gets lost.
It is also best to consult with a legitimate lawyer to strengthen your case for a possible claim. There is no reason for the consumers to feel intimidated with big companies’ policies as these are not right all the time.

Just like the network AT&T, Verizon followed its footsteps in killing its unlimited data plans for their smartphone consumers like iPhone last July 7, 2011. However, it seems that the users figured out how to trick the system and get unlimited data plan.
Verizon customers are still enjoying unlimited data plans even after the network killed the service. Surprisingly, the trick also works on iPhone bought even after the unlimited data plan is no longer offered by the network.
People from Slick Deals posted on the forum how to get the unlimited data plan for your Verizon smartphone. Follow the step-by-step guide below. However, one must remember that even if the method works for you, Verizon has the power to put you back on a tiered data plan at any time.
1. Dial *611 from your Verizon phone, or 1-800-922-0204 from any phone.
2. Wait for computer CSR to go through the main menu. You will need your Verizon phone # and account PIN or last 4 of SSN.
3. Hit option 4.
4. When it asks you what you would like to do today say “Add a feature.”
5. If you have a 3G device (which includes all iPhones): Say you would like to add the $20 2GB 3G Mobile Hotspot FEATURE to your phone If you have a 4G device: Say you would like to add the $30 Unlimited 4G Mobile Hotspot FEATURE to your phone. According to http://stopthecap.com/2011/07/12/…r-account/ , they may be able to locate this feature via referencing feature code #76153.
6. Your data plan will now be the $29.99 unlimited data plan, and you’ll have either the 2GB or unlimited Mobile Hotspot feature on top of that.
7. {OPTIONAL – if you don’t want the Mobile Hotspot feature} Log into My Verizon and remove the Mobile Hotspot FEATURE from your account. Many people recommend waiting a few days (at a minimum) to remove the feature. The $29.99 unlimited data plan should remain on your account.
8. If they say they can’t add that feature to your plan, or that you must bundle your data + mobile hotspot service together as a single data plan, tell them thank you, hang up, and repeat the steps above.
No sanctions were reported that are dropped by Verizon to customers hacking their way to get unlimited data plans. However, everyone is advised to proceed on their own risk.
