>>I believe they get a warning from their service provider when they run out of "credits", and their speed is reduced.<< Verizon says that when I get within 50 megabytes of my data limit, they'll notify me. If I keep using data past the limit, they'll charge me 10 bucks for an additional gigabyte, and another 10 for each additional gig. I'm assuming that I would get a warning before each new level was reached. So you're correct that customers won't just suddenly get a huge bill that they weren't expecting. I'm pretty sure it will work the same way with AT&T. Someone who has a 4G plan with them can confirm this.
