In a sector as competitive as mobile telephony in the United States, price differences can determine the customer's choice. Major carriers constantly fight to keep their clientele, but rates are always a decisive factor. Now, AT&T is showing how it can gain ground against giants like Verizon by clearly betting on more economical rates.
With a market saturated with options, AT&T's strategy has been to stand out for its affordable price and the reliability of its network. Meanwhile, Verizon keeps its prices high, which could put it at a disadvantage if it doesn't respond quickly to its competitor's new offensive.
AT&T strongly bets on more affordable rates
One of the main advantages AT&T offers is its low prices for unlimited plans. In a sector where prices can exceed $100 per month, AT&T offers options starting at $51 monthly for its famous plan, the Value Plus VL. Although this plan has certain limitations, such as reduced speed during congestion, it still offers the most important thing: unlimited data and access to a solid network.
The Value Plus plan was previously only available for one line, but now it can be contracted in a group, making it even easier for families to save. Additionally, AT&T has started offering discounts for adding additional lines, making this option one of the most economical in the market.
AT&T also offers a very attractive prepaid plan. For an initial payment of $300, users can access unlimited data for a full year. With 16 GB of high-speed data each month, and a monthly rate of $25, this plan is one of the best deals compared to other carriers.
Verizon falls behind in the price war
In contrast, Verizon remains one of the most expensive options in the market. Although it offers plans with high prices, its offer doesn't seem to have the same flexibility as AT&T. While Verizon insists on more expensive plans, AT&T shows that there is room for low prices without sacrificing quality.
This customer-focused approach and more economical options have allowed AT&T to gain ground. If Verizon doesn't react soon, it could lose a large part of the market, as more and more customers opt for more affordable rates and plans that fit their needs.
Thus, AT&T is betting on a business model where quality doesn't have to be tied to high prices. With competitive rates and flexible options, the company positions itself as one of the best alternatives for consumers.
