Comcast rolls out ‘Now’ prepaid phone and internet plans


Both plans are unlimited, but Now Mobile throttles after 20GB.

Of the two, the mobile plan appears to be genuinely new, as it’s a prepaid cellular option that offers unlimited 5G data, talk, and text for $25 a month per line. That seems like a better deal than Xfinity’s current prepaid mobile plans, which charge $20 per month “by-the-gig” and cost another $20 if you go over one gigabyte in a period — easy to do if you’re not on Wi-Fi all the time. The company says these plans give “another option” for people enrolled in the Affordable Connectivity Program, the federal government’s internet subsidy for low-income families that’s about to run out of money, with no new funding on the horizon.
