Just days after T-Mobile
announced a price increase, AT&T announced it has lowered pricing on one of
its most popular plans.
AT&T cut the price of its 2GB Mobile Share Value plan by $15 to $65 a month. The
plan includes 4G LTE network speed and includes unlimited talk and text in the
U.S. The deal also includes unlimited international messaging
from the U.S. to select countries with no annual service contract, AT&T
said.
This comes just after
T-Mobile announced a price increase for its unlimited 4G LTE plan by $10 to $80
per month. T-Mobile also offers free talk and text within the U.S. and to
select countries, with no annual contract. And T-Mobile's deal also offers
unlimited data use.
The fight to win over
customers has been intensifying over the past year with AT&T, the No. 2
wireless carrier behind Verizon Wireless, under
direct assault from T-Mobile, the No. 3 carrier.
In January, AT&T
and T-Mobile introduced dueling offers aimed
at poaching each other's customers.
In February, AT&T announced
price cuts for
family plans and, in an apparent effort to keep customers from jumping to other
carriers, offered discounts to current customers who renew, plus a one-time
$100 credit toward their bill for each new line registered with AT&T.
