AT&T launches new plan tailored specifically for certain customers
According to the carrier, AT&T 55+ was designed to meet the needs of 55+ customers, providing easy access to technology with the added security of ActiveArmor built in.
AT&T ActiveArmor promises to give customers 24/7 protection. Included for free in the AT&T 55+ plans, ActiveArmor detects and prevents threats, but also features additional security apps and solutions designed to stop fraudsters in their tracks.
Now, the juicy part is that the AT&T 55+ plan costs $40/month for one line or $35/month for two lines. The latter price is available after discounts with this specific plan and eligible Autopay & Paperless bill (taxes and fees extra).
It’s also important to mention that customers 55+ who opt for 2 wireless lines to get the discounted price will also be offered AT&T Internet 300 or Internet Air for a lower price.The AT&T 55+ experience at a glance:
- Bundled offer: 2 wireless lines + AT&T Internet 300 or AT&T Internet Air for $99/month (plus taxes and fees).
- Unlimited talk, text, and data in and between the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
- 10GB of hotspot data.
- AT&T ActiveArmor protection.

The same goes for the hotspot data. Customers who exceed the 10GB included in the plan will be getting speeds slowed to maximum 128kbps, which is almost nothing in this day and age.
After analyzing their feedback and addressing key pain points, we’ve developed a tailored solution that delivers tangible value. It only gets better- this summer, new and existing AT&T wireless customers 55 and over will have the opportunity to bundle two wireless lines with our lightning-fast AT&T Fiber or our flexible AT&T Internet Air—all for under $100. That’s two essential services and one simple way to stay connected!

AT&T is not the only US carrier that offers a plan specifically designed for seniors. T-Mobile has the Essential Choice 55 plan that costs $60 per month, while Verizon’s 55+ plan costs $62/month per line or $84/month per two lines.
