Ultra Mobile Increases Data

Let the data increasing wars commence! This week, Ultra Mobile has followed the suit of several other carriers who have permanently increased the data that prepaid subscribers can get without raising the price. Don’t you just love a good price war? The plans that are effected include the $29 and $39 plans. Current customers on these plans can expect to see the increased data when their plan renews, while new customers can sign up for the increased data immediately. Ultra Mobile has some excellent international calling options, including unlimited international to select countries, and all plans except for the $19 plan also include 1,000 minutes for countries not included in the unlimited international. All four plans include unlimited nationwide talk and text. Here’s what the plan lineup looks like right now:

• $19 – 100 MB, $1.25 Call Anywhere Credit
• $29 – 1 GB (was 500 MB), $2.50 Call Anywhere Credit
• $39 – 750 MB high speed data, unlimited low speed data (was 500 MB), $6.25 Call Anywhere Credit (was $5)
• $49 – 1 GB high speed data, unlimited low speed data, $12.50 Call Anywhere Credit (was $10)
• $59 – 2.5 GB high speed data, unlimited low speed data, $5 Call Anywhere Credit

I’ve not used Ultra Mobile before, so I can’t speak about their network or customer service. They are a T-Mobile MVNO, so I expect that the service is going to be pretty similar. If you’ve used Ultra Mobile, let me know what you think in the comments!]]>
