“Big four” is the name they’re referred to. All four major carriers in the US offer unlimited data plans, thanks to the recent technological advancements in the telecommunication industry. These carriers including AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon no longer complain about being unable to offer unlimited data to each consumer in the US, let alone maintain the quality of service required. But with the present internet age, they’ve seen a 180-degree turnover in service, and are now boasting with excellence.

In this article, we’ll try to look at each carrier, and point out each unlimited data plans they offer to help you settle for the options that suit your budget and needs.
