I checked further with AT&T; the service is new and is called Unlimited Mobile to Any Mobile; and to qualify for it there are two requirements:
(1)you must have unlimited texting (which we already had on our plan for a long time, so I didn't realize that you have to have this service in order to qualify; in other words, your unlimited texting plan will now also include unlimited cell phone to cell phone calling regardless of the service provider of the cell phone you are calling, at least if you are calling from an AT&T cell phone); and
(2) you must have a qualifying rate plan of a minimum of $39.99 for an individual phone account; or a minimum rate plan of $69.99 for a family account (we have five cell phones on our account).
For us, this will be a savings, since we can move down to a less expensive rate plan, because most of the phones we and our children, (three of whom are on our account), call are cell phones, many of them not being AT&T users; so now those calls will be free.
