The Basic Plan, priced at $40 per month, now allows for up to 500MB 4G LTE data, double that of the previous plan. The Smart Plan now runs $50 per month and includes 2.5GB data per month; customers receive one-half gigabyte more data and pay $5 less each month than before. On the high end, the Pro Plan gives customers 5GB of high speed data at a lowered rate of $60 per month. Customers who sign up for automatic payment through Auto Pay can save an additional $5 per month on their bill, regardless of plan.
It’s worth noting that all of Aio’s rate plans do allow for unlimited data. User who go over the allotted amount, however, will find data speeds are throttled until the end of the billing cycle.
Aio is also discounting a number of Samsung Galaxy smartphones, shaving up to $80 off the standard prices. The Galaxy Amp currently sells for $49.99 (normally priced at $129.99) while the Galaxy Express carries a $199.99 sticker (normally priced at $249.99). Those looking for a flagship experience can scoop up the Galaxy S4 for $529.99, a savings of $50 off the typical price.
