Broadband2Go Plans
You may purchase a Broadband2Go data plan necessary to access the Internet from your laptop personal computer in the following data allocations ("Broadband2Go Plans"):
- $10.00 for 100 megabytes ("MB")
- $20.00 for 1 gigabyte ("GB") - only available on devices purchased through Walmart
- $50.00 per month for unlimited access to email, data and web browsing (3G speeds up to 2.5GB) <-- So it's UNLIMITED but then there's a 2.5GB Cap?!?!
- When you purchase the $10.00 Broadband2Go Plan, your data usage will be deducted from the available data allocation. Unused data expire 10 days from the date the Broadband2Go Plan was activated on your account. If you use your allocation of data before the end of the data expiration date, you must purchase an additional Broadband2Go Plan to use the Broadband2Go service.
When you purchase the $20.00 Broadband2Go Plan, your data usage will be deducted from the available data allocation. Unused data expire one month from the date the Broadband2Go Plan was activated on your account. If you use your allocation of data before the end of the data expiration date, you must purchase an additional Broadband2Go Plan to use the Broadband2Go service.
When you purchase the $50.00 Broadband2Go Plan, your monthly charge is due on the monthly payment date of your $50.00 Broadband2Go Plan. Your monthly payment date is based on the day of the month that you activate your $50.00 Broadband2Go Plan, switch from another Broadband2Go Plan to the $50.00 Broadband2Go Plan, or restart the $50.00 Broadband2Go Plan. If you do not pay your monthly charge on your payment date, you will no longer have access to the Broadband2Go service, regardless of the balance in your account. When you next pay your monthly charge, you will receive the data allocation associated with that monthly plan. If you fail to pay your monthly charge when due, your payment date will be reset based on the day you successfully pay your monthly charge.
Virgin Mobile reserves the right, without notice, to temporarily limit throughput speeds when monthly data usage on the $50 Broadband2Go Plan exceeds 2.5GB. Customers will continue to have access to Broadband2Go service but maximum speeds may be limited to 256 kilobits per second or below for the remainder of the monthly plan cycle. During this time, customers may experience slower page loads, file downloads and degraded streaming media. Throughput speeds will be restored when a new Broadband2Go Plan is purchased.
