AT&T Wireless Introduces GoPhone

AT&T Wireless just introduced GoPhone -- the only national wireless service to provide unlimited night and weekend calling, domestic long distance, and roaming -- without a credit check or long-term contract.

Unlike some wireless plans that require customers to proactively replenish their accounts, GoPhone automatically deducts a set fee from a customer's preferred bank account, credit card, or debit card each month -- or more often if their GoPhone account needs to be replenished before the month is out. Text message reminders will be sent to when the balance falls below $10.00 and again at $7.00.

Customers can choose from one of four Go Phone calling plans ranging from $19.99 to $49.99 a month and receive rates as low as nine cents per minute, which are comparable to those previously available only to customers on plans requiring long-term contracts.

The GoPhone handset, with a suggested retail price of $89.99, is a feature-rich Nokia 3590. It uses AT&T Wireless' GSM/GPRS next-generation wireless network, which offers customers optional services such as text and e-mail messaging and the ability to access entertainment and information sites using AT&T Wireless mMode service. GoPhone customers can purchase mMode for an additional $3.99 a month.

Customers can track and manage their GoPhone accounts online or by accessing the "Account Activity" option on their GoPhone handset.

It can be purchased off-the-shelf in more than 10,000 stores nationally, including Target, 7-Eleven, CompUSA, Staples, Ritz Camera, and AT&T Wireless stores.
