Do I need to call AT&T or just ignore..... My monthly usage just
around 2GB-2.5GB. This month usage is 2.5GB so far for 11 days
(Vacation one week).

Dear XXX,
We've noticed your service plan may need updating.
Many AT&T customers use their smartphones as a broadband connection
for other devices, like laptops, netbooks or other smartphones– a
practice commonly known as tethering. Tethering can be an efficient
way for our customers to enjoy the benefits of AT&T's mobile
broadband network and use more than one device to stay in touch with
important people and information. To take advantage of this feature,
we require that in addition to a data plan, you also have a
tethering plan.
Our records show that you use this capability, but are not
subscribed to our tethering plan. If you would like to continue
tethering, please log into your account online at
www.wireless.att.com, or call us at 1-877-446-5250, 24 hours a day,
7 days a week, by May 27, 2011 to sign up for the DataPro 4GB for
Smartphone Tethering plan or the DataPro Enterprise 4GB for
Smartphone Tethering plan.
Please update your
data plan by
May 27, 2011
if you intend to continue tethering

Here are details on the plans:
DataPro 4GB for Smartphone Tethering

(this gives you 4GB in total, combining both your smartphone data
plan for $25 and the tethering feature, $20)
• $10 per each additional GB thereafter, added automatically
as needed
• Mobile Hotspot capabilities are included for compatible
Smartphones
DataPro Enterprise 4GB for Smartphone Tethering
This Enterprise data plan is required to access corporate email,
company intranet sites and/or other business applications. (Access
to personal email is also supported.)
• $60 per month

If we don't hear from you, we'll plan to automatically enroll you
into one of the above DataPro 4GB plans after May 27, 2011. The
specific plan selected for you will depend on your current
smartphone data plan; if you are currently subscribed to another
Enterprise data plan, you will automatically be enrolled in the
DataPro Enterprise 4GB for Smartphone Tethering Plan so that you can
continue to access corporate email and applications. Your new
DataPro 4GB plan – whether you sign up on your own or we
automatically enroll you – will replace your current smartphone data
plan, including if you are on an unlimited data plan.
If you discontinue tethering, no changes to your current plan will
be required.
It's easy to track your usage throughout the month so there are no
bill surprises. For example, we send you free text messages when you
reach 65, 90, and 100 percent of your plan's threshold. If you would
like to monitor your account more closely, go to
www.att.com/dataplans
to learn about other ways to track your data usage.
As a reminder, our smartphone data plans also include unlimited
usage of Wi-Fi at no additional charge. AT&T smartphone customers
can use Wi-Fi at home or on-the-go at any one of our more than
23,000 U.S. hotspots already included in your data plan.
Thank you for bringing your account up to date. We appreciate the
opportunity to continue to serve your mobile broadband needs.
Sincerely,
AT&T
