Question Millenicom price increase

OK - we just went out to sign up for Millenicom's internet service and the price has increased to $89.99 per month! Is this still the best deal because of the 20 GB? What about Verizon? What would it cost to get a large amount of data like that? We do have the regular phone "hotspot" coverage but it's probably not enough.
Thank you!

It's still the best deal by far if you actually need 20GB. If you can get by with less, you might be able to do better with Verizon. But I expect the Verizon deal would require a 2 year contract, which Millenicom doesn't have.

I just checked the Verizon site. For $90/mo you get 16GB. 20GB would cost $110. With 2 year contract.

As far as I know it is still the best deal available. I believe the changes were forced upon them by Verizon. Another change is that now for those who approach the 20GB limit some months you can now get an additional 20GB for the $90 for a month. Previously you had to get a separate device to get another 20GB. This is good because the 20GB limit is now a hard limit. You will loose access for the remainder of the month if you go over the limit. Previously they would at usage over a number of months and not cut you off unless the overage was occurring routinely.
