As any good business would do AT&T is fighting to retain their customers. The latest move is a new calling plan. On Wednesday, AT&T announced that AT&T customers can call any mobile number in the United States for free. In order to use this new feature you must maintain an unlimited messaging plan and be on a qualifying voice plan (Nation 450 and 900 options along with FamilyTalk 700 or higher). The unlimited messaging plan is 20 dollars a month for individuals and 30 dollars a month for a family plan. As it turns out Verizon getting the iPhone might be the best thing for AT&T customers
You can sign up for the new plan on AT&T’s website.
