We&#8217;ve even enhanced our most robust messaging and data plan for our most active cell phone or smartphone users. In other words, you get more of just about everything except cost. And you don\u2019t even have to click a button to activate the change, either. You receive the boost automatically.<\/p>\n<p>I know what you\u2019re thinking: Sweet!<\/p>\n<p>First, let me mention the change at the lower end of our plans.&nbsp; Our old Anywhere 100 plan previously included 100 minutes for $15 a month. It\u2019s been replaced by our enhanced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumercellular.com\/shopping\/choose\/plan\">Anywhere 150<\/a> plan, which includes 150 minutes for the same price.<\/p>\n<p>We made the biggest change to our Connect! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumercellular.com\/shopping\/choose\/plan\">messaging and data plans<\/a>, however. We\u2019re giving you more opportunities to check the Web than ever before. And it gets even better for those who choose our most robust plan, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumercellular.com\/shopping\/choose\/plan\">Connect! Max<\/a>. Now with that plan, for only $30 a month, you\u2019re entitled to 10,000 text messages and 1 gigabyte of data (both more than double the old levels).<\/p>\n<p>Here at Consumer Cellular, we focus on simplicity because we assume you already have enough complexity in your life. Whether you\u2019re navigating our web site, adjusting your cell phone plan, ordering a new phone, or automatically receiving more minutes at no extra cost, we like to keep things simple.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s because I believe simplicity is the hallmark of a good design.&nbsp; You\u2019ll never need an attorney to decipher our no-contract plans or an accountant to understand your monthly Consumer Cellular invoice.&nbsp; I think Leonardo da Vinci said it best: \u201cSimplicity is the ultimate sophistication.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1435\" title=\"min&amp;data_charts\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consumercellular.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/mindata_charts.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"502\" height=\"600\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am pleased to tell you about an important change to our cell phone plans that just went into effect.&nbsp; The change is simple: You get more minutes, messages, and data but pay the same low price you&#8217;ve always been paying.
