AT&T has much more in store for everyone. After releasing Marshmallow for the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge owners, bringing new roaming programs for Mexico and Canada, and offering the Samsung Galaxy Tab E earlier this May, this month will end with the mobile carrier launching new plans. The company aims to deliver simpler ways to purchase the latest smartphones or the best upgrade options.
Beginning on June 9, new or existing customers can avail of simplified deals like a quicker upgrade or a lower monthly payment. The new offerings are flexible so you can choose the plan that is best for you. Subscribers won’t be limited to few options they don’t really need or like because you can decide whether you want to upgrade sooner or take advantage of a lower monthly payment instead.
There are usually four standard instalment options but AT&T simplified them into just two: AT&T Next and AT&T Next Every Year. The Next option is for upgrade every two years and with a 30-month financing program while the Next Every Year option is for yearly upgrade with a 24-month financing program.
These new options are expected to help businesses and consumers to reduce monthly payments by paying a substantial amount for downpayment or device trade-in. You are free to trade in your smartphone, check the value, and apply toward the purchase of a new device. Or if you really want a low monthly fee, you must be a well-qualified customer who can pay for the optional downpayment at the time of purchase.
Here are more details about the new Next plans:
The AT&T Next Year’s main benefit is a new device each year. If you want to upgrade, choose the 12 monthly payments or pay at least 50% of the retail price of the device. You can pay off the phone up to 24 months. Meanwhile, the AT&T Next offers a lower monthly payment for the device. You can upgrade only after 24 months or if 80% of the device has been paid off already. Phone and plan will be over after 30 months.
