AT&T's $25 per month GoPhone plan now includes unlimited texting to a handful of other countries

Quite often in this day and age, we’re seeing less features for the amount of money that consumers are spending on their wireless service. However, there’s some good news for AT&T customers who are on the carrier’s GoPhone plans, as a new feature is being added all for gratis.

Specifically, AT&T’s base $25 per month GoPhone service is now being blessed with an unlimited texting feature that allow customers to text all they want to Canada, Mexico, and 100 additional countries. Previously, this feature was only made available to the higher $50 per month GoPhone offering – so yeah, it’s nice of AT&T to extend it for free to its lower monthly offering.

Therefore, the new $25 per month GoPhone Plan now provides for unlimited texting to those aforementioned places, plus 250 anytime voice minutes. Meanwhile, the $50 offering gives customers unlimited nationwide calling, texting, and data usage.

For those who’ve been content with the entry-level $25 GoPhone Plan, they’ll be extremely glad to know that the carrier is now throwing in unlimited texting for free. Nowadays, it’s quite rare to find anyone making this kind of a move, and instead, we hear about price hikes and dropped features – needless to say, this is seen as a positive move on AT&T’s behalf.
