Even if you don't use AT&T, you've more than likely heard of the company's variety of unlimited data plans. These plans have taken many different forms over the years, with many going on to be discontinued to make way for new and improved plans. More recently, AT&T retired some of its longtime unlimited plans such as AT&T Unlimited Extra, AT&T Unlimited Starter, and AT&T Unlimited Premium. While you aren't required to switch if you're already on an unlimited plan that's been retired, keeping it won't help if you're trying to save on your AT&T bill.

It Would Be Lovely To Head Into The Weekend Without A New Breach For A Change. AT&T have disclosed a SnowFlake related breach which effects around 109 million customers, essentially everyone with an AT&T phone account.
