AT&T is trying to get its grandfathered unlimited data users to migrate away from the All-you-can-eat section of the buffet line. As you might imagine, the one sure way to get these stragglers off the pot and into a metered wireless plan is to raise the price of unlimited.
And that is exactly what AT&T is doing. Subscribers to the forums section of DSL Reports are spreading the news about a $5 per month increase that AT&T will implement on those with a legacy unlimited plan starting in March. This will be the second $5 price hike for Grandfathered unlimited users inside of a year. The first such hike took place last February.
