Straight Talk Wireless - Slow service, unlimited plan won't load internet
I have been using straight talk for a little over two years now. I purchase a $45 unlimited card every month. I understand they have some sort of "data limit" which causes my internet to run extremely slow. This only happens the last three or four days of the month. the rest of the time my phone runs great for 3G coverage.
Three days before my service was supposed to end, the internet was horribly slow. I refilled it the day before my service expired, which was four days ago. My service is still extremely slow. it takes 4 or 5 minutes to load a webpage. I can't. Use my facebook or twitter apps. My servicee is so slow, it won't even load a song on Pandora.
And, to top it all off, two thirds of my text messages won't send.
So, basically, my phone is good for making calls and taking pictures.
Monetary Loss: $45.
Location: Overland Park, Kansas

It happened to me, but the customer service helped me. You must turn off the cellphone, wait 20 seconds, then turn it on.
Mine is exactly the same. What is happening?
Straight talk was sued for 40 million and lost ! For advertising unlimited data ! Seems to me they need to be sued again !!
Mine is doing the same. It sucks.
It's not the phone it's the service. Time to switch to another provider !
I just paid my bill Friday and I've barely used my internet and it's saying I've reached my data limit. I called and they told me the same thing.. honestly thinking of switching

This is a senseless motion to take because you still do nothing to help. All I got was a bumbling support provider that barely new English and couldn't even answer my questions.
If you have your wifi off, that will do it.
I have bought a unlimited card....no data or anything after refill...please help.

yes but your customer service department is worthless. I have never had so many problems with customer service in my life
Clear your cache.
For the last three months my data speed has only been decent for about a week and then it's so slow it won't load much the rest of the month. There is no way I'm using all my data. I just bought a service refill but this will be my last time with straight talk if it isn't better this month.

I hate this phone plan so much! Not everyone has the money to pay for better ones, what about the all people you you lied too about the Data?
Its defiantly not unlimited! AFTER 3 DAYS I RAN OUT! I'm a teenager and use my phone on a daily basis. How am I supposed to do anything on this *** *** phone plan?
I can't go and send pictures, half my texts don't send, YouTube doesn't work, it takes FOREVER for anything to load! I could barely go on here, it took 10 minutes!!! I try everything, I delete, delete, delete, and delete! I can't down load more than even 2 apps!!
I did find a loophole! You know what IDGF anymore anyways I'm switching next month!! :):):) But for all u angry people don't turn off your phone!
I know that might be hard but it keeps from the high-speed data in tact!!! The only problem is it might bug out, so delete something's and you might be OK :) :) :)!!!!
