Tuesday, the nation’s largest internet provider announced that, starting Jan. 1, it would extend its 1.2 terabyte data cap to previously exempt service areas – meaning once you hit that limit, you'll have to pay more to use more.
After a three-month grace period, residential subscribers in 14 states from West Virginia to Maine, plus the District of Columbia, will face surcharges of up to $100 for exceeding that limit.
“We’re aligning our Northeast markets with the data plan that the rest of the country has had for several years, and 95 percent of our customers are not impacted by it even with the increased usage during the pandemic,” spokesman Joel Shadle said in an email. “The small percentage of customers who reach 1.2TB in a month will be notified multiple times as they approach the threshold, and will have unlimited data options at reduced prices if they choose.”
