Boost Mobile’s New Monthly Unlimited Plan Trumps MetroPCS and Cricket!

Unlike MetroPCS and Cricket, Boost Mobile ‘Monthly Unlimited’ offers nationwide service in 15,800 U.S. cities with no activation, roaming, traveling and long distance fees: a superior network to Cricket and MetroPCS with fewer dropped calls*

IRVINE, Calif. – As economic woes continue and consumers begin to receive sobering credit card bills from the holiday shopping season, Boost Mobile is redefining value for wireless consumers. On January 22, Boost Mobile will introduce a new prepaid plan offering unlimited anytime calling, text messaging, wireless Web and walkie-talkie services with a national calling area for $50 a month.

Why Boost Mobile ‘Monthly Unlimited’ Trumps MetroPCS and Cricket
By switching to the new Boost ‘Monthly Unlimited’, MetroPCS and Cricket customers can take advantage of unlimited nationwide service in 15,800 cities throughout the United States on the Nextel National Network – all with no additional Telecom Taxes, or activation, roaming, traveling or long distance fees. Also, wireless customers seeking a flat-rate calling plan shouldn’t have to sacrifice network quality for a good price. Cricket has more than four times dropped calls than Boost and MetroPCS has twice as many dropped calls than Boost*.

No hidden charges; everything’s included for one low monthly fee
“Wireless consumers know there’s a lot of wrong out there – activation fees, overage charges and extra costs for services like voicemail and roaming. Unlike some other prepaid services, our new flat-rate plan will not include any of these charges; what you see is what you get,” said Matt Carter, president of Boost Mobile. “The Boost Mobile Monthly Unlimited plan offers consumers straightforward pricing and predictable payments on a true nationwide network with no restrictions of a local calling area.”

Customers have the freedom to pay how they want
“The Monthly Unlimited plan is another example of how the differences between prepaid and postpaid plans are becoming more and more blurred,” said William Ho, research director for wireless services at Current Analysis. “We’ve seen the introduction of affordable unlimited calling plans on the postpaid side, and now Boost is making it even more reasonable to get unlimited calling plus texting, walkie-talkie and Web browsing, all without a contract. Especially during this recession, consumers are beginning to look at what prepaid plans, such as Boost’s, have to offer them.”
