AT&T to offer $5 day pass for mobile data on tablets
AT&T plans to offer tablet users a $5 day pass for mobile data service, as well as a $25 prepaid plan for 1GB over three months, in a bid to reach more types of consumers.
The “casual rate plans” are designed for consumers who don’t want tablet cellular service enough to pay a monthly fee, said Chris Penrose, senior vice president of AT&T, who announced the new offerings at the GigaOm Mobilize conference in San Francisco.
The $5 day pass includes 250MB of data. The two new plans are available now for all AT&T tablets, for a limited time, the carrier said.
AT&T users can also add a tablet to one of the company’s Mobile Share plans for $10 or buy a standalone monthly plan for the device. The monthly plans, available as prepaid or postpaid, range from $14.99 per month for 250MB to $50 for 5GB.
