AW - Cellphone Bill
So I have been thinking about switching to Straight Talk Wireless.
They have a new plan now where you can bring your phone with you and
then get unlimited everything for $45 a month. They use the same towers
as AT&T which is who I have my wireless service through now so there
would be minimal change in coverage.
I called AT&T today to see when my contract was up(6/18/2015) and how much it would cost me($245) to get out of said contract. The lady on the phone was SUPER helpful in trying to keep my business and showing me discounts and plans that would work better for me. I was leery since you usually hear about them dropping rates to keep you as a customer but I’ve never had it work for me. But this was some serious dough. Let’s break it down, shall we?
$20 a month less for a bundled plan that included everything I already had plus unlimited minutes instead of 450
$3 a month less because I don’t need them to locate my phone should I lose it since iPhone offers that feature for free
$20 because they prorated the old plan into the new plan for this month
$30 in past overages as a courtesy
and my discount for where I work transfers too!
So, basically, I’m saving $29 a month now on top of a couple other things and am only paying a bit more to stay with AT&T instead of Straight Talk, and I don't have to pay to get out of my contract. If I add it all up over the time that I will still have this contract, that twenty minute phone call saved me almost $500 over the next year AND I don’t have to switch services!
Holy crap, I’m excited!
Re: AW - Cellphone Bill
Those are some awesome savings!
We live in BFE rural IL. So the only thing that works in our town is US Cellular. It stinks not having an option. Especially when we would get a good discount with Verizon, but it doesn't work where we live. :-(
