Prepaid mobile operator Page Plus Cellular is adding more data and more messages to its $29.95/month Talk n Text 1200 plan. The plan — which provided 1,200 voice minutes, 1,200 text or picture messages and 50 megabytes of data — will now include 2,000 messages and 100MB of data. The overage rate for voice minutes on the Talk n Text 1200 plan was lowered from $.12 to $.10 per minute, and the same goes for data overage rate which dropped from $.60 per MB to $.15 on this plan and also on the Unlimited Talk n Text plan.
The company said the move is in response to increasing demand for data usage and messaging by its customers. Page Plus marketing manager Denny Scher commented, “This was already an incredible plan considering all it offered for just $29.95 a month. But we also want to accommodate those who use more data and do more texting. By doubling the amount of data and increasing the number of text and picture messages, we can continue to offer a very affordable option to a wider customer base.”
