I'd think these days you could get a lot more data for less money but
I haven't looked into simple data plans there in years.

AA>Which one did you change to?

I figured I wouldn't need more extras so I just went with the
$35 plan with 10 gig of data for now at least. You get so much
more for an extra $5 it is tempting to take that plan whether
you need it or not. (80 gig plus USA calling)

I got those 2 rewards already added to the 10 gig starting next week
but I was getting a 2 gig bonus for automatic top-ups and they said
when I chose that plan that it wasn't compatable since the 2 gig was
at 3G speeds where the new plan is at 4G. I'm hoping there will be
some sort of similar reward for having automatic top-ups on the new
plan but it wasn't mentioned in the details when I switched. I guess
I'll find out next week. They seem to always give good data bonuses
for doing that.
