Xfinity launched their new tier structure, and if you signed a contract you can still switch within 45 days of signing on. I have one day left to decide.

I am currently paying $30 a month for 400Mbps and a 1.2TB data cap. I only have June’s usage to compare how much data I use in my house, which is ~900GB.

The option I am mainly considering to switch to is $40 a month, 300Mbps, but unlimited data.

I just wanted to ask how important unlimited data is to you, and if it’s worth a slowdown in speed and higher price? I may be more frivolous with my network usage, and download some more stuff if I don’t have a cap shadowing over my head, but I don’t know if that would go over my previous cap or not, so it may just be wasted money, and I only have a day left to decide.

Another note - I may have to pay for an extra month if I sign the $40 contract since it would be a month after what I planned, and I may be moving at that time. However, I am assuming it would still be a better deal than just spending an additional $25 a month to add unlimited data to my current plan.
