We don't have an unlimited plan for our cell phones.
When three out of the four phones on the plan go out of state, we use up our data.
We know how much the overages cost and we brace for it.
But the phone company keeps telling me I'm over and it's $20 a gig and I should change to an unlimited plan...
Which would be a whopping $20 a month more for all four lines.
The thing is, we only go over like once every five years.
So $160 or so every five years or $240 a year for the same five years? (That's $1,200 for you liberal arts majors).
Thanks, but we got this.
Am curious about your providers in FL. Being "old" since Tmob considers anyone over 55 to be so, signed up 2 lines, unlimited anywhere in U.S.A. with free data and incoming all over EU land (where wife unit likes to visit) for 70/month. The buggers just bumped it to 40 per line. Am considering an alternate service that will lower this to 30 per line but then lose unlimited and EU freebies. How much does T mob charge in FL per line if you are over 55? I seem to recall they also have an "add a line" that was reasonable to this same "old folks" plan. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteWe're sticking with Verizon, they stayed up through both Helene and Milton. Father in Law and The Boy are on different carriers and they either lost or had intermittent connection once the power went down.
DeleteH2O costs about $21 per month for unlimited data, coverage is all the US.
ReplyDeleteWe're paying a lot more than that. A decent amount of our bill is the new-phone subsidy, I am sure.
DeleteFirst off, let me say I have most notifications turned off, except for phone, text, email, Blink, SimpliSafe, and my FD apps. I only see the message from Verizon about needing more data when I happen to go into the Verizon app. But it is ALWAYS a lie designed to scare me into changing plans. Because when they tell me I am in "danger" of going over, my usage statistics tell a whole other story. I carry over data every month, so my usage looks something like 2.58 GB/13.47 GB. I just laugh with derision at their attempt to get me to part with even more of my hard-earned money.
ReplyDeleteWe're really over. Nav apps, location finding apps, watching YouTube in the hotels... Basically stuff we'd be using a computer for at home.
DeleteHappens every time Marv and Harvey leave the state at the same time. That only happens once every five years.
Prolly happen again if Marv and I do the Power Tour next year.
