AT T offers 1 000 Free Rollover Minutes


AT&T Technology
Well, here’s another one: AT&T’s offering 1,000 free rollover minutes to some iPhone customers. No, seriously: 1,000 free minutes. So if you pay extra for those because you’re over 50, well, still: 1,000 minutes >>> 1 text message.

The presumed logic going here is that AT&T is 1) angry at becoming the second-most popular iPhone carrier or 2) foaming at the mouth thanks to Verizon’s slow push to steal customers and making a play to lock in more customers.

Anyway, back to the free minutes: simply text “yes” (or “Yes” or “YES”) to 11113020. Thank you. Limit 1 credit per account. I should probably point out that my fiance — who I share a family plan with — also sent the text and received the same message. 

The latest salvo in the AT&T and Verizon Cola Wars was for Big Blue to bribe all its users into staying with a surprise gift of 1000 bonus rollover minutes. Some users thought the text message announcing the free minutes was some kind of spam or scam - and who could blame them?

 So far in these Coke vs Pepsi wars, Big Red has come across as confident and self-assured, pleased with themselves for finally getting the iPhone, but not above a little eyebrow waggling and elbow jab to AT&T over their network quality. 

Meanwhile, AT&T has dished out a series of freebies and discounts, like free mobile to mobile calling for unlimited text plan participants, a 25% off accessories coupon, and now these 1000 free minutes. Current AT&T iPhone owners have been receiving texts all weekend thanking them for being loyal customers to the carrier, and offering 1000 free rollover minutes.
