This isn't quite on topic, but I didn't really want to start a new thread.

I randomly got a text from AT&T today saying they doubled my data allotment at no cost? Anyone know what the deal is with this? Just an attempt to keep people from defecting to lower cost carriers?

This happened for me a few months back. I was talking to support about a billing issue (international plan) and they said they were bumping me from 2GB to 3GB at the same price. Then a few weeks later they said they were doubling it to 6. Can confirm my bill has not increased during either transition.
