What are Straight Talk's data speeds?
I have bought an unlocked iPhone 5, and I was about to buy the Straight Talk sim, but then I realized that I didn't know their data speeds. I was surprised to learn that NOWHERE do they post their data speeds. I emailed them a week ago, and because of the half-baked customer service, they haven't replied. Anyway, does anyone know what their data speeds are, or at least have experience with them?
The speeds depend on the area and how saturated the towers are. Keep in mind that Straight Talk uses the leftovers from the carriers it uses, and does not get the same data speeds as the main carriers get.
- Why is my straight talk iPhone data so slow? I have a jail broken iPhone 4s which I use with straight talk. When I first got it I downloaded a program on safari and the 4g and mms worked perfectly and I could watch Netflix. But I reset it and and this time I could not find the program I downloaded last time, so I used tetherme and now my Internet is so slow, but it still says I have 4g
- When does my Straight Talk Uncap your 3G speeds? Hello sorry about the vague question but I have only had Straight Talk for about a month and I want to know when they stop capping your data? What I mean is I wet over my 2GB limit on 3G using my iPhone 4 last month and it says it only allows 2GB of full 3G speeds but that month is already over and it still capping my data? Why? Any help would be good! I just want to know how I could get my full 3G speeds back!
- What's the data limit for Straight Talk's Unlimited plan? I'm probably going to buy the unlocked GSM iPhone 5 and then use it on Straight Talk. However, has Straight Talk said how much data you can use before your data speeds start getting throttled? Also, will the data that I use while I'm on Wi-Fi count against that data limit?
- Over using data on unlimited straight talk plan? I have a straight talk iphone and they turned off all my data completely saying i "overused" my unlimited data plan. So i have to wait until my original service runs out which was just three days thank god, to add another 30 day unlimited plan. My only question is. Will my phone still work just fine like it did before this mishap. Can anyone tell me if this happened to them as well? And did your phone work with a new minute card? Or did you have to bjuy a whole new phone also?
