Boost's unlimited plan now available in 10 more markets

by Chris Ziegler posted Oct 30th 2007 at 3:06PM

Boost has been super quiet about its strategy for unlimited calling and world domination since rolling out plans to a handful of test markets many months ago, but the deal's still on the table and markets are getting added -- just at a glacial pace, that's all. Dubbed "Unlimited by Boost," the plan offers unlimited calling (hence the name) within the user's home market; outside that market, though, the voice runs a stiff 15 cents per minute. Subscribers in an additional ten states can get in on the action now, which comes contract-free like all other Boost offerings. Check it for $45 to $55 per month depending on location, while a plan that also includes unlimited data will be offered starting November 12 for $55 and up (again, depending on market).

Unlimited by Boost (UbB) costs $45/mo. in Houston. "Local" calling area stretches to Austin and San Antonio along I-10 and Highway 71 and between Austin and SA long I-35. In other words, "local" is very large. Sprint owns Boost, so the Boost voicemail system is actually the Sprint voicemail system, and calls between Sprint and Boost customers are considered mobile-to-mobile (not an issue on the UbB side, but great from Sprint customers). Unlimited text messaging adds just $5/mo. (at least here in Houston), but get this: texting is free *anywhere* you can get a signal on your UbB phone. For example, a UbB Houston resident can be in Chicago and send/receive text messages at no extra charge.
