Some new plan options are headed to Virgin Mobile today. The theme is unlimited, though that term only really applies to talk and text for the upper tier plans. There are a lot of changes and some of it might be confusing, so here it all is laid out as neatly as possible:
Phew, that’s a lot. Don’t forget that — aside from the $20 option — all plans feature unlimited data at the 2G rate. And if all that wasn’t enough, you’ve also got new add-on options for international calling and messaging.
$5 gets you unlimited calls to any Canadian phone, unlimited calling to landlines and Mexico and unlimited texting around the globe. Another $5 would add 1,000 minutes for mobile devices in Mexico, unlimited landline calling to cities in more than 70 countries and discounted calling rates for 200 countries worldwide. Not too bad if you’re on a tight budget with friends and family abroad. Be sure to check all of them out over at Virgin’s site right now.
