AT&T Is Killing Off Two Year Contracts Starting January 8th

If you like getting a phone from AT&T on a two year subsidized plan, you have until January 8th to do it. Starting on that date, AT&T is killing off its old two year contracts, in favor of payment plans through AT&T Next.

AT&T is the last in line of carriers to ditch the old subsidized model. T-Mobile started the trend back in 2013, with Verizon and Sprint eventually following suit. Recently, AT&T stopped offering two year contracts in authorized reseller stores, but you could still get a subsidized phone in AT&T’s own stores. As of January 8th, however, that will no longer be an option. If you want to buy a phone with AT&T, you’ll need to start making monthly payments on it, or buy your phone outright.
