Cell phone bills

[ruttinbuc]

With all these smart phones and the like out there I am curious to just what people pay for their plans a month

Ours runs just over $100 a month. We have two phones on our plan. My wife has a smartphone and we provide my mother in law with a phone.

I carry a blackberry from work.

I pay about $40 a month with US Cellular, give or take, for unlimited texts, pics, weekends, holidays, evenings, all incoming calls, on a nationwide plan. Granted I did sign on while a promotion was running but I'd still have all of that just without the nationwide coverage were there no promotion. I don't need any frills like pointless apps and I don't have any. In all honesty, I am on a family plan which helps keep the costs down

Mine is usually around 86 a month with the iphone 3Gs. Unlimited text, free nights and weekends, data stuff and more. I might lower it since I have a ton of rollover minutes:

We currently have 5 phones on our plan with unlimited texting, so we pay a little over $100 each month, give or take. Sometimes it dips below that, but not often, lol.

[redkneck]

About 120 each month for 2 phones with internet access and texting.

i have verizon and i play 60 to 80 dollars a month but there are 5 of use on the plane we have

[Guest bowhunter56]

I still use the cheap one, $15 a month and refill when i need or want to, i have better things to do beside stare at a phone or text people about unimportant subjects.

I'm fortunate that work pays for mine... just a regular flip camera phone set up with more texting than I typically use. my part of the work plan is less than 50 bucks.

I have 2 basic cell phones. One for my wife and one for yours truly. They're pretty much just for emergencies such as road side breakdowns, injuries in the woods while hunting or if someone needs to locate me ASAP. I pay a monthly top-up of 11.30 per month for each phone. I can't text or browse the internet with them, but then again, I don't want to.

The $100 to $200 per month that I save on not having a mega plan for each phone is better spent on toys that I actually enjoy such as a new bow, or a gun, or a boat, or a hunting trip somewhere, or fishing poles for the grandkids.

I see a lot of people with bluetooth wireless units glued to their ears, as if they are never off their cell phone. I told my buddies at the coffee shop that I visit occassionally, that if they ever saw me come in with a wireless unit stuck on my ear looking like I'm a regular on Star Trek, they are to immediately slap me along side of the head!

We pay a shade over $100. My dad and I share a plan, and most of the bill is mine because of my iphone(data plan and texting). We have a small plan, only 550 minutes, but we don't come close to that very often, and if we do, we have around 2000 rollover minutes built up.

I have no clue what my bill is since the device is supplied through work. It's a crackberry and I hate it. But it's "free" so I don't complain.

98 views and 18 participants??? Is it too hard to pick a number? Is it any wonder there are posts to what is wrong with this forum?..

[Adjam5]

I pay a bit over $150 Mike. I have 5 phones on the plan with unlimited texting/calls within Verizon and 500 outside texts. We all share 700 minutes(smallest plan) and it seems to work. We almost never go over.

Verizon gets a big piece of me every month. They have my TV, hi speed net, home phone and 5 cells.

[The_Kat]

My IPhone runs about 100$ a month and my company pays for it.

My phone is supplied by the company I work for.

My wifes phone which is paid for out of our own pocket runs around the $100 mark.

I think mine runs about 170$ a month.We have two i phones and three other phones ,the I phones have all bells and wistles and the others have unlimited text.This is kinda high but man I love my I phone.

[PA_Spike_King]

My wife and I have just the basic phone package from verizon at around 50$ a month.

[wtnhunt]

Ours is a bundled plan with at&t Mike, and Catrina usually has the phone with her. We pay less than $50 for our cell service and texts. Christina has her own phone, she pays for her minutes/texts out of her allowance and chicken egg money, learning responsibility.

I used the $50 as an average. Mine is less than that, too, smart guy! :DThat's the one I picked!

[PA_RIDGE_RUNNER]

I guess I am really in the minority. I spent many years as a military recruiter and lived by the phone. Since I retired I have claimed that I do not want to be that accessable ever again. I am going to get one just for emergencies and travel and to have with when hunting. The only reason for this decision is you cannot find a public telephone anymore.

[NS whitetail]

I have a pay as you go phone and have to put a $15 card on it each month ( I don't use it alot ). My wife has unlimitied texting and 200 calling minutes per month for $48.

[Shaun_300]

My phone bill is around $40/month, nothing fancy, unlimited texts, can't remember how many minutes i'm allowed, i know it's unlimited evening and weekends.
