Sprint launches new ‘Framily’ plans for family and friends

Sprint is introducing the Sprint FramilySM Plan, a revolutionary pricing program that lets consumers decide who they consider family. The Sprint Framily Plan is available to new and existing customers. The more people added to the group, up to 10 phone lines, the greater the savings for everyone on the plan. Because each account can be billed separately, customers can choose who is in their group.

Sprint will soon launch a competitive new way for you to save on your monthly phone bill. According to a source familiar with the service, the new option will be called a ‘Framily’ plan — no, that’s not a typo — and it lets you share an account ID with up to ten of your friends (get it?) who are also on Sprint, while still being billed separately. The plans will start at $55 per month for an individual line, which gets you 1GB of data and unlimited talk and texting. Data hungry users can bump that up to 3GB for an extra $10 or to unlimited data for an extra $20 monthly.
