Sprint Expands Unlimited by Boost Offering

By Meenakshi Shankar, TMCnet Contributing Editor

“Unlimited by Boost”, the regional flat rate wireless service offered by Boost Mobile, a division of Sprint (News - Alert) Nextel, has expanded to 10 additional markets in the U.S.



 
The service offers unlimited local and nationwide long distance calling from a home calling area for a fixed monthly price, which ranges from $45 to $55 depending on location.
 
Customers making or receiving calls outside of their home calling area will incur a charge of 15 cents per minute.
 
With an intention to expand this service, Boost Mobile will take advantage of Sprint’s CDMA network technology in 12 states in U.S including Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas.
 
Starting next week, Unlimited by Boost will be offered at 938 Wal-Mart stores in all 12 states.
 
“Our trial of Unlimited by Boost has been well received by value-seeking wireless customers,” said Mark Angelino, president of sales & distribution for Sprint. “With the expansion of additional markets and distribution outlets, we are pleased to make the service available to a much wider audience.”
 
As a promotional offer for the first month, the service will be available free of charge for those who buy a new phone. From the 12th of November this year, Boost Mobile will also offer a wireless Web price plan that includes unlimited voice, unlimited text, unlimited picture messaging and unlimited Web browsing for as low as $55 per month depending on the market.
 
Boost Mobile will continue to sell and support both Pay-As-You-Go and Boost Premium Prepaid (hybrid) wireless services and handsets nationwide and which operate on the Sprint Nextel iDEN network.
