If prices come down to ~$50/month for unlimited data + phone service
I might consider jumping back in. As it is, having POCPS (Plain Old
Cell Phone Service) is actually kind of ... peaceful.
Peaceful? Parrots? :)
Cost is *definitely* an issue. Checking your bill is shocking when
you see around 15% is various state, local, federal fees.
I'm paying $57.15:
- $49.98 (Phone/Text: $29.99, Unlimited Data: $19.99)
- $7.17 Fees and Services!
.. so 14% of my cell bill is my government at work.
I'm curious: what do other Friamers using a data plan pay?
One reason my current service was cheaper than ATT (by around $15!)
was that TMobile had a more options for phone/text, and data was
cheaper, so I could get a good match (I don't use the phone all that
much).
