Has anyone been booted off of Straight Talk yet?

I've read that ~100mb/day and ~2Gb/month are their average limits before they start calling you and telling you to knock it off..but from 7/19 through 8/15 I'm at 3.95Gb. They haven't said anything other than spam me with emails and text messages to get me to sign up for auto-renew (nearing the end of my first month).

Almost all of my usage is in off-peak hours (11pm-5am), so maybe that has something to do with it?

Yeah the people on Howard Forums using Straight Talk with T-Mobile have reported using 3-5 GB or more without any issues.

Also it sounds like they're disconnecting fewer people and throttling them instead, which is a nice development except they don't remove the throttle after a month, you have to call them.

I'm hoping the new nexus is available by end of year because I'd love to swap to prepaid then.

Im just hoping Google makes what they are doing now with the Nexus a tradition. Selling it for $350 on the Play Store.
