T-Mobile took a step today to grab a bigger chunk of the prepaid cellphone market by announcing its new Simply Prepaid plans. The new monthly prepaid plans offer unlimited data, talk, and text for as little as $40 per month.
Simply Prepaid offers the following levels of service:
The plans offer a maximum 4G data speed of 8Mbps for the allotted amount of 4G LTE data, which is then slowed to 128K for the rest of the account cycle.
T-Mobile doesn’t allow tethering with these plans, and features such as Data Stash, Simple Global, Music Freedom & other Simple Choice are not included.
“There’s a reason the Un-carrier continues to be #1 in prepaid, and it starts with our willingness to break the rules and give customers better choices,” said John Legere, president and CEO for T-Mobile. “We will never stop eliminating customer pain points. The 1.2 million net new prepaid customers who joined T-Mobile last year already see that value, and we have no plans to stop there.”
The new plan will be available online at t-mobile.com and in T-Mobile retail stores, Simply Prepaid dealer locations, and all other authorized retailers starting January 25th.
