AT&T will give you $200 in gift cards for trying fiber internet - but time's running out

If you've been considering a new internet provider, AT&T has a pretty tempting offer that might make your decision a little easier -- but you only have 24 hours to act. 

Fiber internet has become one of the most reliable options for home service over the past few years. While it is more expensive than other offerings, the stability is worth the cost if you work from home, are an avid gamer, or stream a lot.

To entice you to check out its fiber internet offerings, AT&T is offering a deal we don't see too often. Sign up for the company's high-speed fiber internet, and you can get up to $200 in rewards.

Get up to $200 for trying AT&T fiber

For a while now, AT&T has offered a $100 Reward Card with the purchase of an Internet 500M plan or a $150 Reward Card with the purchase of 1 Gig or higher plan. Through midnight on July 31, though, you can enter the promo code FLASH50 at checkout to get an extra $50 card, bringing your total to $200 if you get the highest tier of service.

In addition, AT&T says it will cover your current provider's early termination fee.

When I checked prices for service, the 1 Gig plan was $80 a month. Counting $200 in rewards cards, that's a little more than two months service free. I compared that to the other available provider at my address, and the price was nearly identical.

Reading over the fine print, there are a few things to know about the offer. First, this offer is for new fiber residential customers only. You have 75 days from the time you get the reward notification email to redeem your cards. After that, your card will be delivered in three to four weeks. Cards will expire six months after they're issued, and you are required to maintain and pay for the service "through reward fulfillment."

In addition to this promotion, AT&T recently introduced a new, cheaper wireless plan for seniors that's as low as $35 a month.
