[press]IRVINE, Calif., Jan 22, 2015 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Boost Mobile continues to provide one of the best values in the prepaid wireless industry with a new $35 Data Boost plan. The offer launches the first week of February and includes unlimited talk, text and data with 2.5GB/month of high-speed data after enrolling in Auto Re-Boost.

The new $35 Data Boost plan will be available to new and existing customers beginning Feb. 3. Customers will be eligible to purchase the new plan when they enroll in Auto Re-Boost in stores1 or online at www.boostmobile.com. Signing up for Auto Re-Boost is the easiest way to make sure a customer’s account and services stay current and active. Auto Re-Boost is Boost’s automatic payment method that allows a customer to register a credit card or debit card, or bank account with Boost Mobile which will be used to automatically make a payment each month.

“Boost Mobile once again demonstrates the best value in prepaid,” said Angela Rittgers, vice president-Sprint Prepaid Group. “We continue to answer the call of data-hungry consumers by offering a $35 no-contract plan that provides unlimited talk, text and the most high-speed data for a single-line plan at the lowest price.”

Now is the perfect time to switch to Boost Mobile. In addition to the new $35 Data Boost plan, for a limited time customers will receive up to $100 off any new phone when they port their number to Boost from any carrier2 and sign up for a Data Boost plan. Also launching on Feb. 3, new customers who don’t bring their number will get their first month free. Both offers will be available in store nationwide.
