AT&T reduces prices on family wireless plans

AT&T (T) announced a new pricing plan for people wanting a family-size bucket of data and unlimited talk and text. As an example, a family of four can now get unlimited talk and text, and 10GB of data – enough for the whole family to share – for $160 a month. These prices on AT&T's best-in-class network are available beginning today to any AT&T customer, including small businesses with up to 10 lines, and customers of Verizon (VZ), Sprint (S), T-Mobile (TMUS) and other wireless carriers who switch to AT&T. Current AT&T customers can save with these new plans, too, when they choose a 10GB or larger bucket of data. For example, a family or small business with four smartphones could move to this new plan and save between $40 and $100 per month, depending on their current plan. "These new plans give customers what they want – our best-ever prices on a best-in-class network," said David Christopher, chief marketing officer, AT&T Mobility. "We're making it easy for families who want it all – great service, great value and big bucket of data to share."
