I made the switch and my service and speed has been off ever since. I recommend you don't switch over. My phone use to NEVER buffer not it buffers all the time. I turned off the data saver by the way so I know that's not it. Don't switchover keep what you have.

Which plan did you switch to? (Please be specific with the plan name).

Thanks!

I have to agree with @Redman123123, my conmection/service has gone way way down since switching from my grandfather plan to the unlimited plan. If I'm not on wifi, I might as well forget catching up on anything that needs internet connection while out and about or searching for anything.

Which unlimited plan?

It really makes no sense. All AT&T postpaid plans (not GoPhone) should be the same speed (except choice). The old grandfathered unlimited has the same restrictions as the new Unlimited Plus plan and should run at the same speed for the first 22GB.

That said, AT&T has sold a LOT of unlimited plans lately. This could be overtaxing a lot of the towers even for normal speed depending on where you are. If this is the issue, then this would have been a problem even if you'd kept the old plan.

To my surprise! Yes it doesn't make sense. And I am a person of reason. I work hard for what I have, I am willing to dish out money for good things but I am just disappointed in the lack of speed in which I now currently have. Maybe there is no correlation with switching from my old grandfathered unlimited plan from 12 years ago. I'm simply stating that now that I switched to the new unlimited choice plus plan, it's terrible. And if I could go back to the way things where I would be grateful.

Well of course it's slower.  You selected the Choice plan which specifically says it is throttled at 3 mbps speed.   You want the plus plan.  

I changed from the old grandfathered unlimited plan to the new unlimited plus plan and ran speed tests on several sites and have not seen any decrease in speed from these tests.
