OTOH, it was true on lots of older plans; it might either still be true on business plans or your employer may be on an old plan (AT&T doesn't tend to force people off old, bad plans when new, better plans come out, and just leave them on the old ones that aren't offered anymore until they actively choose to switch off them.)
