Sprint has announced new shared data plans that offer twice as much mobile data as comparable plans from AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless.
Sprint’s Family Share Pack includes four lines with unlimited talk and text and 20GB of shared data for $160 per month. AT&T and Verizon have similarly-priced plans that include only 10GB of data. T-Mobile’s shared plan costs $100 per month. Further, Sprint is offering a huge incentive to families that port their numbers from another carrier. Sprint will give families with up to 10 lines unlimited talk/text and 20GB of shared data for only $100 per month through 2015, plus an additional 2GB per line. Under this promotion, a family of four would have up to 28GB of data per month and a family of 10 would have up to 40GB of data per month.
The promotional $100 plan pricing will be available from August 22 to September 30. Last, Sprint is offering to cover the ETFs – up to $350 per line – for families that break their contract to sign up with Sprint Family Share Pack. All new devices must be purchased through Sprint Easy Pay.
Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure said the company will debut new plans for individuals later this week.
