Virgin Mobile (USA) To Begin Throttling 3% Of Data Hungry Customers This March

Virgin Mobile (USA) To Begin Throttling 3% Of Data Hungry Customers This March

A few months ago we reported Virgina Mobile USA's plans to begin throttling their customers back in October but that plan never came to fruition. Instead, Virgin Mobile delayed the inevitable throttling to sometime in 2012. Well, now the pay-as-you-go service provider is officially announcing their plans to introduce throttling (for real-sies this time), come March 23rd. According to Virgin Mobile, only 3% of their customer base will be affected which doesn't sound too bad at all. Reduced speeds of around 256Kbps of data will affect all individuals who use over 2.5GB of data in a month.
