AT&T has announced expanded international data offerings for iPhone. Beginning tomorrow, AT&T will offer two new plans that accommodate iPhone customers’ increasing reliance on data services while traveling abroad.
The two new plans will offer 100MB or 200MB a month. For discounted international data usage in 67 countries, the 100MB iPhone plan is available for an additional US$119.99 a month, while the 200MB plan costs an additional $199.99 a month. These new plans are in addition to existing plans for smartphones, including iPhone, which offer 20MB and 50MB in the same countries. There are no long-term commitments required, so customers can add or remove these plans to their existing packages on an as-needed basis, says Bill Hague, executive vice president of
International for AT&T’s wireless operations.
AT&T customers can make and receive calls in more than 200 countries and send e-mail and browse the web in more than 150 countries, including more than 60 countries with high speed third-generation (3G) coverage. AT&T also offers voice and data coverage on 120 cruise ships.
