I have only been with T-Mobile for months. I have unlimited texting and data on the phone. But I don't use my phone as a hot spot at all. And every month I show data being used from my hot spot. I have it blocked on my phone and live out where no one else is in range. My question is how is this possible. I have talked to T-Mobile and 2 people have said that it is not possible and one other said that the phone does it on it's own. The thing is that they give you 500 megs a month free, but if you go over that then they cut your phone back to 2G or you have to pay extra for 2.5 gigs of hot spot. But I don't use my phone as a hot spot. Is this just a way for T-Mobile to rip people off. I just don't understand this.
