AT&T Prepaid has rolled out some new offers, including an update to the provider's $35 phone plan, "BridgePay," and some new device promos. New device promos are available on select Android phone models and the iPhone 6s. The iPhone SE 2020 continues to be offered for $349.99.
The $35 Plan Gets Updated To 2GB Of High-Speed Data
AT&T Prepaid's $35 phone plan ($30 with autopay) now includes 2GB of high-speed data. This is up from its previous allotment of 1GB. The plan also comes with unlimited talk, text, international text, and data, with the specified amount of data at high-speed before throttling to a maximum speed of 128Kbps. The plan also allows for mobile hotspot usage, streaming at a resolution of 1080p, and rollover data for one billing cycle. Multi-line customers can get the plan with a discount. Lines 2 and 3 are billed at a rate of $20/month each with autopay enabled, and lines 4 and 5 cost $10/month each with autopay billing enabled. That means an account with 5 lines on the plan will pay $90/month.
BridgePay
AT&T Prepaid has announced a new feature called BridgePay. With BridgePay, subscribers that can't afford to make a full payment on their monthly plan may extend their service for a period of 7 days after their monthly plan expires. There are 2 BridgePay options available and they are as follows:
- 1GB of high-speed data - $15
- 4GB of high-speed data - $20
Both options include unlimited talk and text. BridgePay can only be added to an existing monthly prepaid plan after it expires. BridgePay data does rollover if another add-on is purchased before the current one expires.
Phone Promos Include The iPhone 6S For $49.99
There are also some new as well as ongoing AT&T Prepaid phone promos available. The iPhone 6S is available online for $99.99 with the purchase of either of AT&T Prepaid's unlimited high-speed data plans which start at $65/month without autopay or for a limited time $50 with autopay billing enabled. According to Wave7 Research, the offer is also available in AT&T retail stores but at a cheaper price. Customers who shop in-store can now get the iPhone 6s for $49.99.
The iPhone SE 2020 continues to be available online for $349.99 with the purchase of any AT&T Prepaid plan. There are some Android phones available at a discount, but they also require the purchase of an unlimited high-speed data plan. The following Android phones are being discounted:
