I have a family plan $40.00 for each phone for talk and text, plus $15.00 for 2 gigs of data.
Now if I buy a new phone with a 2 year contract, my data plan does up to $40.00, an exta $25.00 per month +tax etc. That adds up to $600.00 for the two year period.
No thanks.
Unfortunately, we live in an rural area and only AT&T wireless works here. I am not buying a new phone until we move, which we hope to do soon.
