Xfinity Mobile now offers multiple-line discounts for unlimited plans

Comcast’s wireless service, Xfinity Mobile, is making changes to the price structure on its unlimited plans. The company will now discount additional lines on its unlimited plan: The single-line plan will still cost $ 45 per month, but the extra lines become cheaper as you add. With four lines on one plan, you will pay $ 30 per month per month. This is contrary to the previous policy of charging the same fee per line regardless of the number of lines on a plan – On its website as a practice, touted as recently as yesterday.

The company states that its $ 45 per month unlimited plan is still cheaper than single-line plans among major wireless carriers, which is true: unlimited plans with the big three cost between $ 60 and $ 70 per month.

But it is also worth noting that once the user reaches 20GB of data per month, Xfinity Mobile reduces the speed on all its unlimited plans, which you will not see on the plans of major carriers. When the network is busy, customers may experience a different from temporary slowdown, which is a fairly common policy among network providers.

Its “Buy the Gig” plans are similar: 1GB for $ 15, 3GB for $ 30 and 10GB for $ 60. It is still possible to combine data-capped and unlimited lines on the same plan. This is not the first time Xfinity Mobile, which operates on Verizon’s network, has changed pricing policies: In 2019, it began charging fees for adding HD streaming to accounts. Previously, it capped the streaming video resolution at 480p, but would eliminate this limitation without any request upon request.
