Are you talking about the whole texting LTEasy first and then the new package code? Or is there another step? The whole thing is ridiculously complicated.andyinasia wrote:I did and it was a fucking mess. You have to fanny around with all these text messages and then they diddle you when you don't send the key sms they never told you about. You think you've got 20GB to play with and find you're done 3 days later having used 1.5 GB.
I'm sticking with Metfone at the mo and making sure I connect in short bursts and keep disconnected as long as I can cope to make the time stretch out.

see i just had similar beef, i figured it'd been a month since id last topped up so i put $20 on it, do the lteasy bullshit,where you text back saying yes then do it all over again using lt20 etcgiblet wrote:Are you talking about the whole texting LTEasy first and then the new package code?

so i send the lteasy message and get a message back saying something to the effect of "you cant do this twice in 1 month," woman rings them up and some dude says that i have to wait until the 4th of august before i can put my next $20 on there AND not to type in lteasy anymore, just do lt20 from now on or whatever package you buy, stupid, lame, gonna change to that landline deal if its much cop
I bought the LT 12 plan about 24 hours ago. I downloaded about 1gb and surfered around last night.
Then I got a message saying my plan has changed to LT 20.
When I woke up this morning and checked my email, all 4gb had been used. There is no money on the account.
They told me it was $.007 to download per megabit, but their website says .7 per MB.
I hope there's been a mistake, because I can't afford to give them 12 dollars every two days!!!

not a mistake. That's exactly the bullshit stunt they pulled on me that moved me to start the thread.peragrate wrote:I bought the LT 12 plan about 24 hours ago. I downloaded about 1gb and surfered around last night.

It's very complicated but I just take my USB down to the store and they do it for me. In the spring I got really fast speeds, now it's difficult sometimes to stream without a lot of buffering. However, my torrent speeds are great.
And (knock on wood) I've never really had a problem with the Metfone modem deal. It's a stupid plan for the most part. All the other ooptions are rip offs , but it's all written down to read before you give them money. LT40 is stupid and they know it. So don't do it. And I've never had a problem with two lt20 in a month.
I do wish they had an unlimited plan that was fast. But even if I use 3 lt20 each month it's cheaper than a land line connection.

I get them to do it because then I get the lt20 package. It seems like people have problems (understandably) with the sms b.s.-getting signed up for the wrong plan.
I don't know when the policy changed, but back in the spring when I first started, they told me the same thing. When I asked them to clarify whether I could get two LT20 plans in a month, they gave me the wink and nod sort of response, you know, "the policy is no, but...".
Some of the employees might have super powers that may be able to circumvent this policy. Not sure, but it works for me.

And now that I think about it I remember once getting one of the supervisors to recharge it without even using a scratch card. He had an account with a bunch of money loaded and transfered it like that.
