tmobile wireless unlimited date

I thought t-mobile had unlimited data usage yet i just got a notice saying they are going to slow my internet speeds because i used .49 gigabytes of data?  What is this all about?

    .49 GB or 49 GB? T-mobile does have a 50 GB data usage threshold on some plans before de-prioritization occurs. That threshold varies by plan and it’s included in the fine print of the rate plans. It’s also discussed in the Open Internet polices at:

    https://www.t-mobile.com/responsibility/consumer-info/policies/internet-service

    Since this is de-prioritization (not throttling), your speeds may be slower during peak usage periods (congestion). This may simple be a warning that your approaching your data usage threshold provided you meant 49 GB and not .49 GB.
