Default Hot Spot from AT&T for free!

Well, not for everyone but it was for me....

I've always wanted a hot spot so that I could do work on my laptop while traveling. We travel 4 hours each way at least once a month to see my son and I've never liked just sitting in the car that long doing nothing. So I went on line to the ATT website and chatted with a representative. Now just so you know I currently have two I-phones with AT&T to begin with. My bill for 700 minutes a month was $165. I've always thought that was alot but I just couldn't give up our I-phones.

I did the online chat and told the rep what I wanted. I was just checking the price and expecting her to say another $60 on top of my current bill to get a hotspot.

She told me that I could get 10 gig of data and a hot spot on my laptop for $15.00 less than I am currently paying! $150 a month. That means I can surf the net while I ride in the car. I was so excited! Then she said if I have any additional items like an Ipad or whatever I can pay $10 a month more and add them. Now this might not seem like a deal if you use a trac phone and pay a lower amount for a phone and are happy not having an I-phone, but I love technology and love having it at my fingertips.
