Boost Mobile today announced a set of International "Minute Packs" that offer a pre-set number of international voice minutes for a fixed price, paid in advance and valid for one month. The new options help Boost customers in the U.S. reach friends and family abroad. Each "pack" includes unlimited international text messaging to any country, not just the country the voice minutes apply to. The price and number of minutes vary by country. Rates range from $10 for 1000 minutes to India or Malaysia, to $20 for 35 minutes to Cuba. Other examples include $10 for 250 minutes to Mexico, $20 for 350 minutes to the Dominican Republic, and $10 for 90 minutes to the Philippines.
