If you have a plan we don't offer anymore, you can keep it—even if you upgrade your device. Keep in mind, you may not be eligible for upgrade promotions on older plans.

Want to change your plan or data amount? You have to choose from our current wireless plans. Keep in mind, you won't be able to go back to your old plan. Plus, if you choose a 5G phone, you can pair it with a wireless plan that includes 5G network access.1
