Wow, are the serious? A plan that you don't have to sign a two year contract for at a reasonable price for unlimited voice and texting. For an average user this is a great deal. As an example my family of four has a family plan with AT&T. Our monthly bill runs $240.00 per month. On the Walmart Family Mobile that bill would be a whopping $120.00. However, our bill does have three data lines which is not even mentioned in this article. It will be interesting to see if they plan to offer this service at a reasonable amount also.
The downside to this plan for some people would be that you do not receive a free phone with your plan. I'm of the opinion that not having to sign a two year expensive contract is well worth buying whatever cool phone you desire. Other people may feel this is a downside to this new product from Walmart, but I do not.
This new product from Walmart will certainly be exciting to watch and see how well it does. I believe it will do very well. Many people who do not get cell phones are of the opinion that they do not want a monthly bill they are obligated to. With this new product anyone can buy a phone and have service on a monthly basis. This would be excellent for my grandmother who travels in the winter months and is often on the road and unreachable because she does not want a monthly bill for something she will not use year round.
With very few drawbacks that I can foresee. I believe this will make changes in the entire mobile phone industry.
