NTT Docomo Unveils New LTE Billing PlansNTT Docomo Unveils New LTE Billing Plans

TOKYO -- NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that in conjunction with the launch of two tablets for its extra-high-speed next-generation LTE service, Xi™ (read “Crossy”), new billing plans will be introduced from the beginning of October, including a simple, worry-free flat-rate plan suited to heavy data users and a new two-tiered plan that allows moderate data users to pay as they go up to a set limit. Both plans will be available either with or without two-year contracts.

Specially discounted introductory rates will be offered for all plans. For example, the flat-rate data plan with a two-year contract, called the “Xi Two-Year Data Plan FLAT,” will be available for just 4,410 yen(including tax) per month through April 2012, compared to the regular rate of 5,985 yen thereafter.
