    How much does the next step up cost? Also do you have any alternative options? I’m on 1GB up/down with unlimited data for 70USD monthly, but when I moved to where I live that wasn’t available. It randomly just popped up and I was all-too-happy to switch.

      Data isn’t that much around here, it is cheap but it’s still my roommates having to pay more than they use when they spend all day in office and have unlimited 5G. The 1GBps plan is also available with my ISP which is like triple of what I an posting rn. I am also not from us btw.

        If you really wanted it, you could just upgrade and pay the entire difference between the cheaper and the faster subscription plan yourself, to let your roommate keep their original price. If the prices increase, calculate again

        Like this:

        $99 / 2 = $49.50 (his price)

        $129 - $99 = $30 (the total difference to cover)

        $49.50 + $30 = $79.50 (your price)

          I already proposed doing 2:1:1 split but they weren’t comfortable with it. And 150 Mbps is more than enough for most case except downloads so I don’t see a need to upgrade for thrice the price. They did consider upgrading to unlimited because of my fuck up but since it’s my fuck up I didn’t wanna cause anymore trouble so that’s a thought for future.
