Carrier How much is your monthly iPhone bill?

[gretafour]

It's fun to watch people rationalize paying thousands of dollars a year for mobile phone service.

 

[Ffosse]

I buy a $650 phone for $200 (actually, $30 w/my trade-in). What's not to understand about that?

(I've had the same carrier for 10 years b/c they have reliable coverage, fast data speed, and quality customer service from my experience. YMMV.)

It's a different world here - people tend to buy unlocked phones outright for cash - the carriers have really no say in who gets what phone.

Then go with a sim with unlimited 4G data, 300 minutes, unlimited texts for 30 days, £15 no contract, pay as you go. I often go over 100GB tethering to other devices, faster and cheaper than bothering with home broadband. And just for £15.

Contracts are for idiots. (and Americans, apparently.)

I don't pay anything for mine now. The workplace foots the bill.

How much is your monthly iPhone bill?

AT&T $105 after tax a month for two iphones with the grandfathered unlimited data, 450 shared minutes, 200 texts on one phone, none on the other. This also includes a 24% discount.

 

[stardozer13]

$100 for one IPhone and $100 for a Droid.

My Verizon bill finally got better!

Original:
2 basic phones
1 iPhone
500 texts
700 minutes
2GB of data
$146/month

Now:
1 basic phone
2 iPhones
Unlimited Talk/Test
3GB of data
$180/month

I still think it's a rip off, but a much better plan than I had before. Plus, I get to use mobile hotspot and share my LTE with my iPad/Mac. The other iPhone user is using her's like a basic phone. She's only used like 5MB of data this cycle meaning more for me

 

[lrsone]

Verizon iPhone 6
Unlimited Minutes
Unlimited Texts
2 GB Data

$84/mo.


I feel like Verizon prices are high but they've given me good coverage. But $84 for one phone it's just insane, EU prices just make me wanna cry you guys get some cheap rates.

I am extremely tempted by the 10gb for $55 Cricket / AIO plan which is running on AT&T towers with LTE Access. You can expect 75ms ping and 7.80 Mbps speeds.

I love reading how much Americans pay for their phone bills, I pay the equivalent of $30usd total here in Poland and for that I have 5 phones with unlimited calls, unlimited texts and 30GB of shared LTE data and they also gave me a sim for my iPad to use that shared data as well. 3 of the phones are used by my wife's family which don't use data so it's basically all for me and my wife to use.

Beat that.

Just as Americans must love reading about crazy gas prices and prices for all kinds of other goods in many places that are much cheaper in US. Fairly nonsensical comparisons in the end.

because what works for some in some places must mean surely mean it's like that for everyone everywhere and other options that those people have can't possibly be better for them in one way or another.

4 lines, 3 smartphones and one basic phone. Mobile share plan with 10GB and unlimited text and calling for $160 with AT&T. Overall not too bad.

Adds up to a little under $200/month. I get a monthly discount on my service, I believe it is 20%.
