  "account": "Straight Talk is boosting its unlimited plans without raising prices, according to a Verizon press release. The $45-per-month Silver Unlimited plan, which has not seen its base price increase since 2009, now includes access to 5G Ultra Wideband. This upgrade offers speeds three times faster than standard 5G, making it the biggest benefit for Silver subscribers. The $55 Gold and $65 Platinum plans already included 5G Ultra Wideband, so the addition is a welcome enhancement for them as well. In addition to the 5G upgrade, Straight Talk is increasing hotspot data for both Silver and Gold plans, as well as adding expanded international perks and savings on Home Internet bundles.",
  "summary": "More hotspot data, faster 5G for some, and not a price hike in sight.",
