【Italy】

AT&T has a seriously good offer for customers who are Italy55 and older — a new $40 per month unlimited plan.

And if you're not quite ready to embrace senior status (and the discounts that come with it), you don't need to worry. AT&T calls it the 55+ plan.

About the AT&T 55+ unlimited plan

After you've blown out the birthday candles on your 55th birthday, you can sign up for AT&T's newest plan. For anyone 55 and up, the plan comes in at $40 per month for a single line, which offers unlimited texts, calls, and data in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. The age-restricted plan also comes with 10GB of hotspot data per line, which slows to 128Kbps for anything over the 10 gigs. AT&T mentions the plan comes with 5G access and SD streaming. The plan also includes AT&T ActiveArmor security, which targets spam calls, texts, and emails.

Those who sign up for two lines are in for an even better deal. The same perks of the $40 per month plan apply, but the price drops to $35 per month per line when you get two lines. Keep in mind that the $35 and $40 per line pricing plans apply to those who sign up for automatic payments with paperless bills.

We're gonna ignore the fact that cell phone companies think 55 and up is "senior-discount" territory, but we love any type of savings, so let's compare a few other options. Verizon offers a 55+ plan, but only those who live in Florida are eligible. That plan offers unlimited data, calls, and texts, and it comes in at $62 per month for one line. It also comes with unlimited hotspot tethering, unlike the AT&T cap at 10GB before getting throttled.

T-Mobile's basic plan for those 55+ costs $45 per month and offers unlimited talk and text with 50GB of high-speed data and unlimited hotspot tethering on its 3G network. You're also covered for unlimited talk and texts in Canada and Mexico with unlimited data at 128Kbps.

Boiled down, the AT&T plan offers an attractive price for those who want unlimited texts, calls, and data. The slight downside to the plan is the 10GB of hotspot data before getting throttled to 128Kbps. That'll be fine for emails, but don't expect any streaming or speedy image loading. Otherwise, the new AT&T 55+ plan is a great deal.
