Republic Wireless Shifts From Unlimited Plans to Ones That Offer Refunds

Republic Wireless is unveiling a new lineup of plans, becoming the latest carrier to do away with plans that offer unlimited high-speed cellular data. In their place, Republic is offering plans that offer customers a refund on any high-speed data paid for but unused.

Most recently, Republic has been offering unlimited 3G cellular data for $25 per month and unlimited 4G data for $40 per month. With the new plans, Republic will offer plans at $17.50 for 500MB of high-speed cellular data, $25 for 1GB of high-speed data and $40 for 2GB of high-speed data. Customers would then get a refund for any data they don’t use or pay $15 for each extra gigabyte. All plans include unlimited calling and texting.
