Paid the $8 for inflight internet. Deprted SLC at 120ish mountain, now in decent to Dallas and the in flight internet has been garbage the entire flight. 

 

I could not use the internet the entire flight until decent....thanks

 

Oh and I still have 3 more hours of flight to go with now a dead phone that was drained trying to connect to the purchased in flight internet service

Sorry to hear that.

 

You should tell customer relations that you want a refund

  Wifi  is  not  needed for all  business  transactions,  as paper contracts  still  matter.

My only "annoyance" with the wi-fi is that whenever your phone goes into sleep mode and you turn it on again, it loses the wi-fi connection, so you constantly have to reconnect. But, that's not a Southwest problem, that's a standard internet wi-fi connectivity problem with any wi-fi that does not "remember" you.
