T-Mobile UK has confirmed that new customers signing up to its Full Monty contract would not be eligible for unlimited tethering on their device. The Monty plan was launched back in February of this year which offers customers unlimited calls, texts and data (including tethering) for £36 per month. While customers who previously signed up for this deal are still able to enjoy the unlimited tethering, new customers won't be so lucky.
When a UK T-Mobile representative was asked why the sudden change in their plan, they gave no reason and simply stated: “We don't have anything more to share.”
My assumption is that T-Mobile probably thought it would be a good idea at first until the free tethering started to eat up too much of their bandwidth. I don't blame them as “free” tethering has always been such a sore subject on any carrier.

It makes sense that they don’t want to allow free tethering on an unlimited plan. But the companies that are capping data and STILL think tethering shouldn’t be free? Absolutely comical.
This I agree with!
Sad
