Monthly standard rates.
We have plans that fit any style, but sometimes you may go over the limits set out in your monthly plan, add-on or data feature. The list below shows the pay-per-use rates that’ll be charged if you exceed the usage limits, unless a different rate was specified in your agreement. For usage limits and specified rates, login to My Account.
Heads up! Unless your plan or add-on says something different, airtime is rounded up to the nearest minute, data usage is rounded up to the nearest kilobyte and outgoing text messages are counted.
