AT&T’s New Plan Next Up Anytime Allows to Switch Phones Three Times in a Year

AT&T has announced a new add-on to its installment plan called “Next Up Anytime,” priced at $10/month. This plan allows users to switch their phones up to three times every 12 months after paying one installment and the first Next Up Anytime fee. To qualify for further promotional deals, users must pay off at least 33% of the cost of their current device.

Previously, AT&T offered an add-on plan called “Next UP” for $6 a month, allowing annual phone upgrades after 50% of the device cost is paid off. The new ‘Anytime’ option now allows customers to upgrade their phones up to three times a year. Beginning July 16, customers who opt for an AT&T Installment Plan can add the Next Up Anytime feature for an additional $10 per month.

Once enrolled, customers can upgrade their device after making one installment payment and the first Next Up Anytime payment. To qualify for promotional deals on new devices, however, customers must have paid off at least 33% of their current phone’s cost.

While the program offers flexibility and frequent upgrades, it also raises questions about consumerism and the environmental impact of such rapid device turnover. The company’s announcement emphasizes that the program responds to customer demand for choice and flexibility in upgrading their devices.
