Unlimited and Prepaid AT&T phone deals

AT&T | Unlimited Starter plan | $35/month with four lines: AT&Ts budget unlimited plan

AT&T | Unlimited Starter plan | $35/month with four lines: AT&Ts budget unlimited plan
AT&T's Unlimited Starter is the cheapest of AT&T's unlimited plans and a great choice for those on a budget. If you get a four-line family plan, you'll only have to pay $35/month per line; a single line costs $65 a month. You get unlimited data, texts and calls and unlimited texting from the US to more than 120 countries. However, you won't get any hotspotting data, and if AT&T's network is busy, your speeds can be slowed. You'll also find your streaming limited to SD.

AT&T | 16GB 12-month prepaid | $25/month - Great value prepaid on AT&T

AT&T | 16GB 12-month prepaid | $25/month - Great value prepaid on AT&T
This is an excellent price from AT&T's prepaid selection. It only costs $25 a month for 16GB of data, which for a limited time is double the 8GB AT&T usually offers. However, the catch here is that you have to pay the full value upfront — $300 to be precise. If you can afford to pay that in one go, this is AT&T's best value prepaid plan. While the prepaid plan doesn't offer 5G, you do get rollover data,  a mobile hotspot, HD video, and connectivity in Mexico and Canada.

    So the deals you post for at&t being a free s22 or flip4 with any galaxy phone trade in are not accurate. At&t had this deal until October 1st. Then October 1 happened and the galaxy phone needs to be at least a s7. Trust my how I know. I'm currently trying to deals with at&t and they now won't take an s3 for a zero dollar exchange for the s22 or z flip4 like they would prior to October 1st. My current phone is an LG v40, great phone but time for a new one. Three v40 isn't worth the $35 min phone value too get the free s22 or flip4. Prior to October 1st, they had a deal for a pixel 6 pro for under $4 a month. That's what I was going to do, but I was busy and couldn't get the deal she before 10/1. Well, 10/3 when I had time, those deals were fine and the stipulations for trade in galaxy phones changed. So you might want to revise your " deals" listed here as they are not correct. Sure, if you have an s9, then they still work, but the deal is a great cry from what it was and what you list as still ongoing, but aren't.
