I had the same question, and was told it applies to all XM Customers. I having being paying $12 for 1GB, but rarely used even a tenth of that each month, as I am largely housebound and use my wifi.
I have Xfinity/Comcast for internet, too - and am dependent up the ACP (Affordable Connectivity Program), which provided $30.00 a month towards internet for qualifying low-Income Americans. Because Congress has let funding for ACP lapse, the last $30.00 grant is for this month (April).
So, May brings me a $30.00 higher internet bill, and an $8.00 increase in mobile data.
The data increase seems like a tech version of greedflation to me, and is very poorly timed, given that so many Customers are simultaneously facing loss of ACP benefits.
