FreedomPop today said it has struck an agreement with AT&T that allows its customers to access AT&T's LTE network. FreedomPop is a WiFi-first carrier that provides unlimited calling and texting from WiFi hotspots and low-cost service when connected to cellular networks. The basic free plan includes 500 texts, 200 minutes, and 500 MB of data each month. FreedomPop is now selling a $10 AT&T SIM card that can be put in any unlocked GSM handset. Customers can take advantage of FreedomPop's free, entry-level service on AT&T's network once the AT&T SIM card is activated. FreedomPop also kicked off sales of an AT&T-compatible MiFi mobile hotspot. FreedomPop is offering the $30 device with up to 2 GB of free LTE per month. The AT&T SIM card and MiFi device are available from FreedomPop's web site. The company recently began selling refurbished smartphone online.
