Here’s the catch: after March 31, 2018, the price of service will go up.
Have a family of five? For a limited time, you can now pay just $90 a month for everyone to get unlimited talk, text, and data on their phones via Sprint.
When you sign up for Sprint’s unlimited plan with AutoPay you’ll pay $50/month for the first line. You can then add a second line for a spouse, partner, or friend and pay $90 a month total for both lines. Then, you can add up to three more people to the plan for free.
Check out Sprint’s chart below for a price comparison by carrier.
Once you sign up, you’ll lock in that discounted rate through March 31, 2018. After that date, the price of service will go up: an extra $10 per month for the first line; the second line will stay at $40 per month; and each of the other lines will cost $30 a month. So, if you have five people on your plan, your bill will go up $100 a month, which is not insignificant.
“Customers do more with their phones every day and they want to use them without limits. With our new offer, you can sign up for a plan that allows you to surf and stream all you want and not worry about overage fees and charges,” Sprint’s Chief Marketing Officer Roger Solé said in a statement. “Why not use your wireless device to its full potential to enjoy things you love like Snapchat, social media, Twitter, watching video, texting and calling – all on our highly reliable network.”
Meanwhile, rival carrier T-Mobile is attracting customers with a different tactic: free pizza. The company today announced that it will be giving away free pizzas every Tuesday for the next four weeks, starting on Valentine’s Day.
