Here’s this enticing bit of news from Clark Howard:
| Boost Mobile offers new unlimited calling/texting/web plan
Most of the Big 4 carriers have plans that hover near $100/month. But on Thursday, Jan. 22, Boost Mobile will roll out a nationwide unlimited calling/texting/web plan with no contracts for just $50/month. There are, however, some downsides. The cell phones available through Boost are antiquated, according to Clark. And they’re not subsidized, so be sure to look on eBay or Craigslist for a deal on a used one. In addition, Boost operates on the Nextel network, which doesn’t always offer the best call quality. |
And here’s some additional plan info from the Boost Mobile site:
- Unlimited talk
- Unlimited text including multi-media messaging
- Unlimited web
- Unlimited walkie-talkie
- Voicemail, long distance and nationwide network included
- No hidden fees, no contracts and no credit checks
- No roaming charges
- Low rates for international calls and international walkie-talkie
I’m a Verizon user at the end of my (third?) two-year contract.
Do you have experience with Boost Mobile?
