I also have Sprint and have everything listed above, except 1 phone, 450 anytime minutes (with free nights/weekends) and no insurance. I pay $61.13 a month after all the taxes, fees, etc. have been added. I receive a discount thru my employer.

[gsibble]

Mine is atrocious at $128 a month but work pays for it fortunately!

[TBH]

Yikes, mine seems high after reading this thread.

AT&T (and most of my family has AT&T too, so I don't have to use minutes to call them).

Family plan w/2 people
1 regular phone w/out data plan, 1 iPhone with data plan
500 anytime minutes, unlimited nights and weekends
200 text messages per month
international calling plan which costs about $4 but allows me to make the occasional emergency call for work

Total=$130 per month after employer discount

The Family plan works out best when there are multiple people on the account, because the first line is expensive but each additional line is only $9.99. If you have other family members who use AT&T, maybe you could add a couple of them to your account and have everyone split the bill. That's what we do. Our account is 5 phones: me, my wife, my daughter, my mother and my cousin. The people on the plan do not need to all be in the same household, or even the same state for that matter. You pay $130 for 2 people but would pay about $145 (with taxes) for 3 or $160 for 4 which would lower the per person cost considerably.

***This is my only phone

[disneysteve]

I'm curious how many of you, especially those with fairly costly cell plans, have that as your only phone. That makes a big difference in what is reasonable to pay. We also have a land line so we pay about $30/month for that along with our cell plan. If we had no land line, I wouldn't mind spending more on the cell plan since it would work out about the same in the end.

Just updated mine, only phone

Plus, unrelated, but I dont pay for cable either, so I allow myself the luxury. I do know it is a luxury
I do pay $40 for internet at home

[Andrew Jackson]

I changed my carrier about a year ago. I really don't talk or text much on my phone and was getting bent over backwards paying $55 a month to Verizon every month with 100s of minutes and texts left over. To make matters worst sometimes I would forget to pay on time and have a $5 fee added on.

So I made the switch to Net10 and I wish I had switched sooner. They are pay as you go and I always buy 300 minutes for $30. Depending on how much I use my phone the $30 will last me at least a month and usually six weeks. I once had the $30 stretch two months.

Mine is exactly the same, except for the insurance. I think mine might come out closer to $110.

[pearlieq]

--T Mobile PrePaid
--Old model phone--no bells and whistles.
--1000 minutes that expire in 1 year unless I add a $10 card before they expire. Then they roll over into the next year. I've done this twice.


I rarely use the phone--it's mostly just to call a tow truck or confirm directions. I still have abotu 650 of my original 1000 minutes that I bought 3 years ago.

Total Cost for 3 years: $180 or $5/month.

I don't pay for internet or cable (right now at least, since they're included -- probably will never get cable again, even after I move into my own place.)
