About $180 for two iPhones through Verizon.
£25 ($40) per month gives me 250MB data, 300 minutes talk time, unlimited texts. Samsung Galaxy SII with Vodafone UK.
$29 (AUD) a month for two outdated smartphones and $200 credit shared, free calls between us which are most of the calls so there is plenty left over for calls to others, text and as much data as you’d want on old outdated phones that are not really good at that sort of stuff.
My Sprint plan is $78.50 (including all taxes, fees, and whatnot) monthly for more than sufficient talk with unlimited data and texts. I don’t pay for a separate internet service since I tether through my phone.
The thirty-something I was paying was way too much for the little I used it so when my contract ran out on the fifteenth I closed the account.
Soon I will be buying tracphone. I only need it to call home if I need help or am going to be late.
When our parents were still living and our children younger I needed to be available. Now parents are gone, our children are launched and well-supported, there are no grandkids and I just have no interest in being available to my friends and family all the time. My turn, everyone!
Verizon, 1 regular phone, 1 smart phone unlimited data, $120/month total. The last time I posted about this someone told me they no longer offer that deal, I was grandfathered in somehow. We’ve been using Verizon for a long time.
$70/month for two smart phones, unlimited messaging and data, 300 minutes/phone (we never use more than 30 each).
We have Virgin Mobile so no contract and we love it.
Before this we were paying $114 per month for two non-smart phones, no data, 300 minutes/phone and unlimited messaging.
My bill was $49/month - $51.xx after taxes. Now I don’t pay anything. Unlimited on 4g network, using a Galaxy s2. I can’t stand contracts!!! When a service is good, they don’t need to force you to stay.
I use nevadacell.com .
$59.00 per month. T-Mobile. Unlimited talk,text and 2GB 4G data.
The brits posting here seem to have some crappy options. $40 for 300 minutes and 250MB of data? I normally use about 1.5GB out of my 2GB alloted, but thats only because I use Wi-Fi at work and at home so it doesnt cut into my carriers data. 250MB would be essentially useless. I probably get 100MB just in app updates per month.
I’ve got that plan, too. I don’t think it’s still available to the general public - at least, I can’t find a way to buy it on their website. I guess we’re grandfathered in.
With Maryland sales tax, it comes to the outrageous total of $84.80 a year.
I actually used it enough this summer that for the first time, I had to top-up some extra money. An extra $20 - oh noes!
Not an option. Sprint’s coverage map looks great when it shows the whole US. Unfortunately, when you zoom in it becomes mostly a sea of light purple (Off-network roaming). The only places that have decent coverage are a handful of larger cities and along some of the major interstates. Straight Talk doesn’t offer Sprint network phones in my area. That’s because they won’t work here.
I seem to be the loser here - I have 5 smartphones with Verizon at $40 per phone per month with a $90 Share Everything Unlimited Talk and Text with 8GB data. My cell phone bill is more than $300 per month once you tack on the fees and taxes. Last month I used 3GB of the 8GB so maybe I can trim back on that one but other than that I think I’m getting ripped off.
About $195 a month for 1 iPhone, 2 dumb phones and an iPad. Verizon.
Verizon $39.95 /monthly plan, 450 peak minutes, unlimited off-peak, 250 text messages, data possible but I don’t use the phone for that. Ends up at $52 bucks and change with taxes and fees. I never come close to the limits.
I’ve got a company-issued smart phone for the rare occasions when I need it.
I just switched from one smart phone, one cell for $139/mo. (including taxes) to a different carrier and smart phone alone for $80 (plus taxes). I’m awaiting my first bill.
both were unlimited calls, texts, and data.
$1.67/month (most months anyway)
Probably about $60 a year on average for TracFone minutes. I did buy the “double minutes for life” card a couple years ago which has cut my cost overall. The phone cost $10.
We currently pay about $230 a month with Verizon. 3 lines. Unlimited data on 2. All smartphones. Unlimited text. 700 shared minutes.
We’re in the process of switching to Sprint, mainly because Verizon doesn’t offer unlimited data plans anymore. And so far that looks like it’s going to run much less, maybe $100 a month less. And our new Sprint plan will have unlimited voice, text and data.
