According to the lawsuits, AT&T misleadingly promotes data service plans as “unlimited” when such plans are actually limited by various conditions and without adequately disclosing important information (such as the data usage limits and that the company throttles, or intentionally slows, data speed when a consumer has approached or exceeded the data usage limits).
