Longer Plan Terms!

[Vakshwell]

I have a feeling this idea has been brought up before, but I wanted to bring it up in the case it wasn't.

I was thinking of something as simple as just a longer term than the already lengthy 90 days. What about adding a 6 month option and full year option? Larger data buckets would be required, but the overall simplicity of paying for your plan once and not having to worry for the next month, or even year is very appealing! 

Just a thought. 😀

Hi,

You're quite welcome!

I would fork out the cash for a 4, 5, or 6  month plan only if the additional discount made it worth it. The problem with any any longer term prepaid service is that the discount needs to be worth paying in advance or else you might as well as keep the money in your pocket and pay for the service in smaller chunks.

@Duckman I definitely agree, it would have to be cheaper over those 6 months let's say than to just do two 90 day options. There's a fine balance, but for those willing to shell out the money all upfront I imagine this would be way more convenient. It's just a matter of watching your data a little closely depending on how much data you use on a monthly basis.

I would personally love a 6month option. I know PM is no commitment type service but some of us we love it enough we are willing to commit to longer plans. The amount of saving from 30day to 90day was substantial hopefully they would give similar incentives to goto 6months 😉

@dhilscher I definitely agree with everything you say! Come on Public Mobile let's up the commitment a little! 6 month plans! 6 month plans! 6 month plans! 😃

Speaking of this, how long will PM be in beta? It felt like it has been over a year since? Do we have any idea when it will? I really hope they do add an option with their plans like what was suggested or adding option will calling like in 200-500 minutes.

I would be willing to subscribe to longer terms IF the plan length fee had a better discount 🙂 . I actually am of the mind Public should already reduce the 90 day fee since client agrees to pay for 90 day service in advance.

Hey something I just noticed as well; during the original beta terms Public DID have longer terms! Anyone know why they stopped doing this & left 90 days as maximum length?

I second this, I am used to Year Long plans from Speakout and Tbaytel.

I pay a yearly fee and dont have to worry about plans, payments etc for a whole year!

JL.

I can say, I would prefer a 120 or 150 Day MAX, BUT not more than that
