I am going to try not to write yet another wall of text
-
I was supposed to get 3 months 50% off after adding my student card to transport system that I've already been using
-
An employee told me it indeed doesn't really work and just gave me 3M 50% off code from some spreadsheet
-
I tried to activate it nearly a month later, at which point it had "expired"
-
I contacted tech support, they told me they don't know about such offer, nor there being any spreadsheets with discounts, and instead offered me 50% for 1 month (possibly from the friend referral program), or that they could try opening a case which may take 30 days (basically urging me to get that 1 month)
-
I went out again to find that one single very specific employee who knows what I am talking about. He gave me another code from the spreadsheet. I warned him that it's for 6M, not 3M. "Whatever, so you get 3 months more", he said smiling.
There goes unlimited data for EUR 10.25 / month.

😠we could all have it so much better... imagine actually having money to save, being able to participate in the economy more than you're already forced too.

Well, it's not fully unlimited, there's a 300GB FUP, after which it gets reduced to 3Mbps. So if maxing it out, theoretically maybe some 1.2TB/month if I can do simple math.
Most mobile data I ever used in a month was 567GB. Mostly upload, as I just got access to 1.5TB of cloud storage, so I probably had little noticeable effect on the network.

Goddamn lol. Here I am sweating over the 60MB I used for a transit app because I forgot to turn off my VPN.

Also the government gave the telecom monopoly billions of dollars for infrastructure improvement and... they did nothing with it.

I pay £10 a month in the UK for 25GB data and unlimited texts and calls within the UK (not including premium rate numbers). I rarely ever use more than 1-2GB of data because I'm always on wifi at home, and never use public wifi when out and about... and because I work from home. When I got out, it's often for exercise, a meal or to visit friends/family (using their wifi)...
I haven't paid more than £10 a month for about 15yrs now... used to be a meagre 500MB data to begin with... it just kept increasing.

"Customer service people don't care about their jobs anymore!"
Yeah, but in a good way!
