DALLAS, May 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* is
providing new and existing customers with simpler and more flexible
ways to upgrade to a new smartphone.
We know you want flexibility and choices. With our new plans,
we're giving you the power to decide between lower monthly payments
or the ability to upgrade to the latest smartphone sooner.
Starting June 9, AT&T will
simplify the smartphone purchase experience from 4 installment
options to the 2 following1:
- AT&T Next Every YearSM: Upgrade to a new
device every year, with a 24-month financing program term.
- AT&T Next®: Upgrade every 2 years, with a
30-month financing program term.
With the new options, consumers and businesses can reduce their
monthly payments:
- Device Trade-in: Customers who own their device can
trade it in and apply the value toward the new device cost in
AT&T retail stores.
- Down payment: Customers can put money down at the time
of purchase to apply towards the new device cost.
