Straightforward wireless plans that eliminate the confusion of
hidden fees are now available. U.S. Cellular® has introduced new
Total Plans with No Hidden Fees – no activation fees, no
monthly device connection charges, no phone upgrade fees and no
data overage fees. And because you can’t get more straightforward
than unlimited, consumers and small businesses can now get
unlimited data with U.S. Cellular for as low as $40 per line for 4
lines or just $60 per month for a single line with
autopay/paperless billing enrollment.
“We want to be forthright with customers by knocking out hidden
fees once and for all and showing wireless users exactly what they
are paying for. Our new plans allow families and small businesses
to customize their plans for each individual’s needs, from 2GB of
data to unlimited, all with simplified pricing and discounts,” said
Grant Leech, vice president of brand management at U.S. Cellular.
“We also know that in order to deliver a great wireless experience,
we need to have a reliable network that keeps up with the data
demands of our customers, so we provide a fast 4G LTE network that
works when and where our customers need it.”
U.S. Cellular’s new Total Plans with No Hidden Fees
include unlimited talk and text with buckets of 2GB, 6GB and
unlimited data, and they include family discounts that reward
customers when they add additional lines. The data is not shared,
so customers can pick the right data amounts for each person on the
account. There are no data overage fees, so customers can feel
confident that their wireless usage charges will be the same every
month.
U.S. Cellular’s unlimited offering includes video streaming,
hot-spot capability and free calling to Mexico and Canada. These
plans are available to new and current customers, and those
purchasing new devices can take advantage of the monthly payment
option that best meets their needs – from 20, 24 or 30 months.
