AT&T today announced two of its best-ever offers for international messaging and direct dial calling from the US, delivering more value to customers who want to connect with family, friends and coworkers living abroad. On Friday, February 28, all AT&T Mobile Share and Mobile Share Value plans will now include unlimited international messaging from the U.S. to the world.

Starting February 28th, all AT&T Mobile Share and Mobile Share Value users will be able to send text picture and video messages internationally for free. However, there’s a not-so ulterior motive behind the announcement (one that’s referenced in AT&T’s own release), as in comparison “other messaging services or applications will incur cellular data charges,” pointing a vague finger at the likes of Hangouts, WhatsApp, Viber, LINE and, well, all the other ones we’ve forgotten. The full service will be compatible with around 120 countries, while text messages can be sent to over 190 different locales.
