On Nov. 30, AT&T (NYSE:T) will begin offering three video streaming services - DirecTV NOW, FreeVIEW and Fullscreen. No annual contracts or credit checks required, and all three services are zero-rated for AT&T Mobility customers, meaning they don't count against the subscriber's mobile data plan.

DirecTV NOW has several channel packages ranging from $35-$70 a month, with content drawn DirecTV's satellite video [] service. Fullscreen SVOD is $5.99 per month and offers 1,500 hours of ad-free scripted and unscripted original series, TV shows and films licensed from studio partners, as well as content from online creators. FreeVIEW is a curated, ad-supported video service with on-demand content from AUDIENCE Network, Otter Media properties and other channels on DirecTV NOW.

"We're extending our entertainment portfolio for those who value premium content but also want more TV freedom suited for their lifestyle, whether watching at home or on their mobile devices. This is TV your way," said John Stankey, CEO, AT&T Entertainment Group.

The telco announced plans to launch the three services back in March.
