AT&T’s GoPhone prepaid wireless service will be undergoing an expansion of its services starting this weekend, as it will begin offering support for AT&T’s LTE and HSPA+ data networks, and will also be adding support for the iPhone.
Until now, GoPhone has allowed iPhone users to sign up for service, but without cellular data access. With the changes coming tomorrow, the iPhone will have access to the full range of AT&T services through GoPhone, including LTE data and Visual Voicemail.
GoPhone will offer three service plans for the iPhone, which includes the $65/month plan that offers unlimited calls and texts and 1 GB of data. While users can also opt for the cheaper $25 and $50 plans, they will need to purchase separate data packages on top of those plans if they wish to use cellular data on their iPhone.
GoPhone users can either use their own off-contract iPhone, or purchase one for the full no-contract price.
Existing GoPhone iPhone customers will be automatically updated with support for cellular data access on June 21, customers can request a manual upgrade before that date.
