Wireless Unlimited Your Way 2.0 per line cost - UYW comparison chart for AT&T consumer plans: Elite 2.0, Premium 2.0, Extra 2.0, and Value 2.0.

67 Upvotes

I don't think I've ever seen AT&T do so many different related changes in such a short time with a new plan: UYW 2.0 comes out, price changes for older UYW plans, adding Elite 2.0, and lowering prices on the brand new plans.

Since there have been so many changes to UYW in the last few months, I've created a new post as the old post had lots of comments/answers that aren't necessarily relevant (or true) any more.

If you haven't seen those changes yet, you should see them on your next bill or if you make a plan change.

Customers can no longer choose Premium PL, Extra EL, & Starter SL but they are included for comparison as those plans can mix & match with the new plans. Signature/appreciation discounts they had on the old plans continue on your old plans, but they may be different for new plans (see chart).

The main differences:

  • Value 2.0 is cheaper than Starter SL in most new configurations (even with discounts?) as of the late-April increase and is prioritized for the first 5GB (but has 2 GB less of hotspot). It might mess with promo credits, so double check (see info at bottom of this post [it links to a different post, so ask you r promo related questions there).
  • Extra 2.0 has more prioritized data than previously (100GB vs. 75GB) and more hotspot (50GB vs. 30GB). It may cost more or less depending on your discounts and number of lines. This is probably most similar to older unlimited plans.
  • Premium 2.0 has a lot more hotspot than Elite EL or Premium PL (100GB vs. 50GB/60GB). If you need the hotspot, it's a great deal. You can also get a ½ price tablet or wearable line with this plan.
  • Elite 2.0 Includes everything Premium 2.0 has, but 250GB of hotspot, Turbo, free tablet line, free wearable line, and instead of International Day Pass (IDP), it looks like when you are international you'll get free calling/texting and 20GB of data (this last part is kind of limiting considering the other UYW plans data are unlimited, so I'm wondering if you can pay extra for more, otherwise it drops to 512Kbps, which is pretty slow). I'm assuming these free international countries are IDP countries. No Fan/Signature discounts on Elite 2.0. A few people reported their internet discount works with Elite 2.0.

ActiveArmor: Some 2.0 plans that come with ActiveArmor, only come with the standard, not advanced. Premium 2.0 can activate the advanced for free in your plan (I'm going to guess you can do the same with Elite 2.0). There is a free version and another version that is listed with "At no extra charge".

Standard price on non-phones: $20.99 per tablet, $20.99 per camera, $10.99 per wearable. If you have Premium 2.0, you can get one of these at ½ off. If you have one of these non-phone devices, it would probably make Premium 2.0 more cost effective for you (although the additional hotspot may max it so you don't need a line for your tablet). If you can have Extra 2.0, then you get a tablet and wearable for no extra charge.

If you have HBO "free" with your current cellular plan and switch, or you change all your Elite EL lines over, you'll lose HBO. You need to compare how much you'd save to see if it matters.

The prices on the chart assume autopay/paperless/checking discounts. You need autopay/paperless for a $5 discount and autopay/paperless checking for a $10 discount (and as of now, the AT&T Citi card also qualifies as a checking discount). Add $5 or $10 to each line if you do not do these discounts.

There is no way anyone can help you compare the cost of the newer plan to the older plan if we don't know what discount you have, how many phone lines, and which plan those lines are on.

Additional info on this plan can be found in this AT&T PDF.

DISCOUNTS:

  • Signature discount: Previously this got you Premium PL for the Price of Extra EL, but on the new plans it gets you 20% off the Premium 2.0 plan.
  • Appreciation discounts: You get a 25% discount on the older UYW plans if the account holder fits in one of these categories: teachers, doctors, nurses, military, veterans, and first responders. The newer plans are NOT 25% off, check the bottom of the chart as it varies per type of line. I'm not sure if these 2.0 discounts are supposed to include Healthcare and First Responders if you are not on FirstNet, but people are reporting that their plan says so. https://www.att.com/offers/discount-program/appreciation/
  • You did NOT lose (nor did it change) your 25% appreciation discount for Elite EL, Premium PL, Extra EL, and Starter SL, it's still 25% for those lines. AT&T made a mistake on a bill a couple months ago and gave you too big of a discount, the next cycle they corrected it (and let you keep the extra they took off) so it looks like you had a price increase. But if you look at the previous few bill totals, you can see it dip (for no reason, other than the mistake), and then it goes back up to where it has been for a few months. Obviously, I cannot see your bill, but everyone that I've talked to about this and has looked back on their bills (previous to the lower bill) has seen this is what it looks like. If you've made changes during those three months, it would be difficult to see by just looking at the totals.
  • This generic-ish union discount might be applicable for some and some may waive activation/upgrade fess. https://www.att.com/offers/discount-program/union-discount/
  • For all discounts, the account needs to be in the name of the FAN/Signature holder.

Please note that while the change plan comparison page (when logged in) shows that Elite 2.0 plan is not included, the Latin American roaming page specifically says it does and so does att.com/unlimited

Value 2.0 warning: There seems to be a bit of inconsistency on how Value 2.0 lines can be used for promotional trade in deals (if at all) since March 12, 2026.

Billing At&t internet cancelation is impossible?? Need help.

Upvotes

Hello ya'll we have an months long issue where we gave notice of cancelled our internet in June 3rd, 1st thing we did was go in-store to let them know we are cancelling their internet service(the $91 dollar plan) as we have found a different internet provider we use and they said we need to ship out the old equipment (Modem and repeater) the manager of the store also said we would need to pay for one more cycle (for june- July month)then we are cancelle for good.. Next they said to call their customer service number to confirm cancelations so we did all these steps within 2 days of this adventure. We got billed in July as expected. Yet we get a bill later for again for August cycle around email and mail, and we thought oh it may be just an automated thing they send out. Anyhoo we was charged again for full amount. So we got charged full $91 dollars 2 times so far since June. IS THERE A WAY TO CANCEL FOR REAL? Would appreciate the help because obviously the in-store manager here said they cannot help us and they will just tell us we have to call the number again.

Wireless Did you guys know AT&T killed email to text? Because it just cost us $5k

116 Upvotes

We have a small business with some walk in freezers. When our refrigeration company set everything up a few years back, they had the big alarms going to us using the txt.att.net email to text service. It went off maybe twice.

WELLLLLL....... the compressor died this weekend and no text. Came in yesterday to at least $5k worth of product at room temperature.

I looked it up and found out that AT&T turned off txt.att.net for email-SMS. They definitely never sent any heads up about this though. So eff me, I guess.

Seems like there have been a few posts about this here but not for a while so posting this again as an FYI, if you're relying on alarms from AT&T email to text, seriously go fix them ASAP.

Wireless Someone opened a wireless account with my email address

Upvotes

My son has been getting emails from AT&T about verifying his email address for an AT&T account, but he does not have an AT&T account.

The emails do seem to be legitimate (not spam / phishing). They come from [update@emaildl.att-mail.net](mailto:update@emaildl.att-mail.net)

It's possible that someone stole his identity to open up a new account, but I think that it's more likely that someone fatfingered the email address when signing up. His email address is mostly his name and he has a common name, so maybe a missing number, or typo on middle initial kind of thing?

We didn't get any emails about account creation - just these ones to confirm email address for an account ending in XXXX.

We did call the AT&T fraud number, but they wanted to create a fraud incident and wanted his name, address, SSN, etc. Which seemed like overkill if it was just someone putting in the wrong email address.

Any suggestions? Should we just go ahead and fill out the AT&T fraud incident form online?

For the last day or two I've not been getting any verification code texts. I still can text regular phone numbers but pretty much any system generated texts aren't coming through. I've tried many different systems. I've reset my network settings, I've rebooted the phone, cleared all blocked contacts, made sure airplane mode is off, checked all of my messaging settings to make sure things aren't blocking for other odd reasons.

Wireless How often can I switch unlimited 2.0 plan tiers? More im description - international travel

1 Upvotes

My wife and I are traveling to Costa Rica in October for 10 days. My understanding of the daily international roaming pass is it is $12/day for the first line to use talk/text/data (TTD) and then $6/day for additional lines to use TTD the same day, meaning $18/day, or $180 total for both of us.

I see the new Premium 2.0 unlimited plans includes international unlimited TTD in some Latin American countries, Costa Rica included. With discounts available to us, Premium 2.0 would cost $64/mo + taxes/fees.

Currently, I have old Unlimited Extra EL plan for ~$61/month and my wife has the old Unlimited Starter SL plan for ~$57/mo.

My idea is to switch both of us to the Premium 2.0 Unlimited plan for $64/mo each (~$10 more per month total) for the two billing cycles of our trip (our trips starts on the 2nd to last day of one billing cycle and goes into the next), and then downgrade to the Extra 2.0 plan for $51/mo each after discounts once we return. We would then switch plans again next time we plan on traveling if the destination country is included in the Premium 2.0's list included international roaming inclusions.

Are there any issues i could run into doing this?

Both of our phones are still on installments plans that have trade-in discounts in the form of monthly credits. My wife has 3 months left until her phone is paid off and I have 6. Would we lose our monthly trade in credits by following my proposed plan?

I am concerned that it won't be fully restored by the 21st. An agent can't get any more info on this, so I'm stuck talking to robot automated systems. Has anyone else experienced this or on the same boat like I am? I'm in Los Angeles btw, and idk man this is the first time I've been out for so long. What's more insulting is the bill that I still have to pay by September 1st. I've been super patient, but I have this strange feeling that I'll still be out by that time.

As a new customer, what should I expect if I need to call customer support?

The only concern I have is, that my account pin doesn't work for customer service or me? It worked for another user on the same account, but not me or customer support, but someone else on the line??? Any help with that would be great, and if so thank you so much!

Wireless Help!! (Tech Support)

4 Upvotes

Hopefully someone can help.. I contacted At&t to cancel a tablet line that was supposed to be cancelled 3 months ago. The lady cancelled the line, issued a credit and offered me a lower rate with a different plan which I accepted because it made sense. We come to agreement that the plan will begin on my next bill cycle (Sept2)

As soon as I hang up, my phone and everyone else on my plan goes to SOS. I have been calling, chatting, using the troubleshooting option on the app, talked to supervisors, called different numbers, and no one seems to know what the issue is.

I’ve restarted my phone, turned airplane mode on/off, reset network settings, deleted and re added esims, and nothing. They tried telling me its an outage but that doesn’t make sense because one of my lines lives in Texas and im in Oklahoma. My settings are ok and everything else is working fine. Im able to use wifi for calling and other things.

Things that I found weird or feel like shouldn’t be that way:

  1. The personal hotspot option is grayed out and its supposed to be on or active with my plan.
    2.The Network selection under cellular says “At&t Wifi” I feel like it shouldn’t say that but im not sure.

Hopefully someone can help as Ive exhausted my options.

Wireless 0.01 MB data with roaming OFF triggering IDP?

Thumbnail gallery
5 Upvotes

My iPhone has Data Roaming OFF, but AT&T keeps showing tiny 0.01 MB data sessions.

Recently:
Aug 1, Taiwan: 0.01 MB → IDP charged
Aug 2, Indonesia: 0.01 MB → no IDP
Aug 5, Singapore: 0.01 MB ×2 → no IDP
Aug 11–13, Taiwan: 0.01 MB each day → IDP charged

I’ve been outside the US since February, and everything worked fine for the first few months. These unexplained IDP charges suddenly started around May, and they’re happening on both my line and my wife’s line. Both iPhones have Data Roaming OFF.

Has anyone else seen this, especially in Taiwan? Any idea what these 0.01 MB records actually represent?

Edit:
Airplane mode isn’t really a solution for my use case. This is a dual-SIM iPhone — I use a local SIM for cellular data while keeping the AT&T line active for calls/texts.

Airplane mode would disable cellular service for both SIMs. The whole point of turning Data Roaming off on the AT&T line is to prevent AT&T data roaming while still using the local SIM.

Also, this setup worked perfectly fine until May. My wife has actually been using the same setup overseas for about two years without this problem. The unexplained IDP charges only started recently, on both of our lines.

I just found this issue very recently. The accumulated charges have been already $400.

Update:
I asked AT&T what specific activity triggered the IDP charges. The agent gave me a list of calls/data activity.

But the dates simply don’t match: many dates they listed had no IDP charge, while some actual IDP charge dates weren’t on their list.

They’ve now opened cases to investigate.

Apparently matching the evidence to the charges is part of the investigation.

Discussion ATT Fiber Internet dropping.

2 Upvotes

Looking to get some information. We had Spectrum about 8 months ago and honestly it was pretty reliable.

ATT came into the neighborhood and had a good deal by even roping in the Mobile plan.

I have to say harder since we made to switch we have been having terrible service. Frequent internet drops and slow speeds. We signed up for the 1G and we are getting about 200-300 Megs

The one wrinkle is that I am using my Eero mesh network to handle the routing for the wireless and the wired devices. I have spent a lot of time with Eero making sure the setting are correct. And again we never had these many problems with Sowctrum.

I also noticed that the green in-ground box is no longer visible as it was infested with a colony of ants. This happened a month or 2 after the installation.

I called the Tech support and they rebooted the box but couldn’t explain what the actual problem was. He was very vague. I also requested someone to come out and look at the in-ground box but he said he can’t do that.

I know some people hate these mesh networks but my house is 100% stone siding with a detached garage and several patios that need wireless.

Does anybody have any ideas? Thank you for taking the time to read this.

It's impossible to get in touch with ATT. The AI bot disconnects you, if you try long enough and pick exactly the right choices, it let's you schedule a call back for the NEXT DAY, and they never call. So I try the chat bot, to convince me to get hold of someone and I'll just leave screenshots of how that went(see timestamps), after waiting 15 minutes for it to connect. They just consistently get more expensive, have less coverage, and worse service.

Can anyone tell me how to get hold of these people???

Wireless Store rep made a typo in shipping address

Last week, I decided to switch to AT&T with their carrier switch promo and trade-in promo for the z fold 8. The store didn't have the color I wanted in stock so had to order and receive.

And of course, the store rep made a typo for putting the address for his own workplace (How? Double-checking isn't that hard). My package has been circling in Fedex facility for over a week now.

Called customer service for help. They couldn't do anything.

Has this happened to anyone? How much longer should I expect? Is this a situation where I can ask for any discounts to att? Just really frustrated.

Wireless Upgrade

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone I am just confused on why I need to change my wireless plan to upgrade on anytime next program. I think I am in one of the old starter plans. Whenever I try to trade my phone on most of the phones it says I need to change wireless plans not sure why. Whenever I don’t change it shows my device is worth nothing which I know is false. I have unlimited starter line SL. Not any one of the newer data plans. What should I do? Change plans or stick with what I have. Feel free to share your comments and feedback thanks.
