AT&T has announced a new unlimited wireless data plan but only for wireless customers that also subscribe to its DIRECTV or U-Verse TV services.

The new AT&T Unlimited Plan includes unlimited data and unlimited talk and text. Customers can get the AT&T Unlimited Plan on a smartphone for $100 per month. Additional smartphones are $40 per month each, and a fourth smartphone can be added at no additional cost.*

For current TV subscribers who don't have AT&T wireless, the company is offering a limited time credit of up to $500 when you switch to the AT&T Unlimited Plan with an eligible trade-in, and purchase of a smartphone on AT&T Next. If you are an AT&T wireless customer, but not a DIRECTV subscriber, you can add a TV package beginning at $19.99 per month for 12 months, with a 24 month agreement. If you combine your bills you’ll save an additional $10 a month.

“Our new unlimited plan is our best offer yet. It’s the perfect reward for our valued customers who like to take advantage of our integrated offers of TV and wireless services,” said Ralph de la Vega, CEO of AT&T Mobile and Business Solutions. “Video traffic continues to grow on our network as fast as ever because people enjoy viewing their favorite video content on their favorite devices.”

Let us remember that Unlimited Data Plan was $20 & $30 before. Now it's gonna be $100? That math does not seem right for the consumer.

It's funny how people assume other people's lives are exactly like theirs or try to shove their lives/habits onto others. There's people and then there's all these different lives going at different paces. So what if it's 2gb or 500gb. Different people different strokes.

I think I use my data a lot and more than I should sometimes and don't come close to 15GB/month with 2 people. I also just dropped the overall cost of my plan by 25.00 where I was paying for the 15GB/month plan because 6gb was sometimes tight.

I use over 100gb every month for mostly business purposes so 22gb is drop in the bucket for me. Nothing to reevaluate - business viber, business voxer, business trips data for streaming and researching, messaging all that takes data that I must have.

I don't see what the fuss is 22gb is more then enough

Dan - January 12, 2016 at 3:40pm

For you it is - for me it's less than 20% of what I need.

Lol I remember when it was just 5 gb 22. Is a lot. Compared you just have to be smart with your data . You know like use wifi most of the time

We we still be unable to create a hotspot and do FaceTime with the unlimited? Is it 22G for the account before the throttling can begin? Or is it for each line? Still questions......

AT&T "unlimited" will be throttled after 22gb! No thanks! Your unlimited is quite the opposite
