Absolutely false. I was booted completely OFF my "unlimited" plan (in the US) for torrenting too much; they accused me of bypassing the hotspot/tethering limits, but that wasn't even remotely true; I was using an Android client.

T-Mobile can kiss my pasty-white, Irish tukhus. This exact type of bait-and-switch tactic is just their style.
