Sales staff will promote ATT's $60 per month pre-paid plan (with 2.5GB of internet data and unlimited talk and text) to those seeking AT&T plans, while the stores will offer $50/month (1GB LTE data) and $70/month (5GB LTE data) unlimited data plans to customers seeking T-Mobile devices
Oh my, what a splendid marketing team and pricing strategy they've got themselves there. Quite marvellous.
That is, unless you've just bought Beats, of course. France has a $25 prepaid plan with unlimited text, voice and 2.5GB of data, and cheap data to refill. Italy has $50 plans with 15GB of data, and $15 plans with unlimited music streaming. And both have SIM-locked iPhones with what is basically financing at around $30 per month for two years. Sweden, of course, as 10GB of data per month for $25, too.
But it's definitively nice to see the ISPs of the US, Germany and the UK celebrating Y2K and approaching the 2000s decade. If they'd just put a 1 in front of the 5GB, they might as well be mistaken for state-of-the-art.
