Two Years, One Price, No Term Contract: AT&T Introduces New Broadband Plans with Guaranteed Monthly Rate
Consumers Benefit From Low Rate Without Getting Locked in to Cable-Style Term Contracts
Dallas, Texas, August 20, 2008
Just in time for back to school, AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) announced today a compelling new addition to its broadband prices — a guaranteed monthly rate for two years without the hassle of a term commitment like those of cable companies.
"This is about meeting the needs of today's consumer," said Rick Welday, chief marketing officer for AT&T Consumer. "It's peace of mind with a guaranteed monthly rate for two years, no term commitment required and no termination fees. Broadband is a must for kids as they head back to school, and with our guaranteed price, parents can make a sound, secure investment in their children's education."
New residential AT&T High Speed Internet orders for qualifying plans placed before Nov. 15 will include the price guarantee. Service may be ordered online at www.att.com or by calling 1-800-ATT-2020. The guaranteed monthly pricing applies to residential AT&T High Speed Internet products¹, including the company's standalone and AT&T U-verseSM High Speed Internet services:
In addition to the price guarantee with no term commitment, qualified AT&T High Speed Internet customers benefit from additional services that cable can't match, including free Wi-Fi access to the nation's largest Wi-Fi network. New customers may also benefit from up to $125 cash back when they switch from a cable company to AT&T for their high speed Internet service.
