said by morbo:did you upgrade your cell plan? what's that cost you? For some with a need for mega-minute calling plans, Cellular is still a bit pricey. However, even though my home has one PSTN line and 6 VoIP DID#s (terminating in 3 PAP2T adapters) ... the vast majority of our incoming and outgoing calls are through our cell phones ... because we carry them with us inside and outside the home.
Now, for an individual, a single-line cellular account can be pricey ... but multi-phone Family Plans give an economy of scale ... so that my personal cellular phone and my BlackBerry plus my wife and two grandchildren's phones ... all on one ATT account ... afford me a very reasonable monthly charge. Calls between other ATT cellular phones are free, calls after 8pm (or something like that) are free ... and the 2nd through 5th phone costs only $10 plus taxes/fees per month. So, not counting my BlackBerry's monthly internet data charges, I am paying about $120/mo (including tax/fees) --- that's $22/mo per phone. |

 ·WOW Internet and..
| You must not have understood the sales rep when you signed for up your service. Mobile to Mobile calling ---AT$T to AT$T is always free any day of the night. Nights generally start at 9 or 7. Earlier if you pay extra- never an added bonus-especially with ATT.
And with MetroPCS,Cricket,and Revol.com all teaming up and roaming on each others network and thanks to the VZW and Alltel Merger Unlimited cell phone plans for $37 per month will be expanding all over.
ATT and their plans will be a thing of the past. Hello UNLIMITED Local, Long distance, voicemail, call waiting, 3-way calling, unlimited texting and unlimited 411 service for $47 per month. available for $37 for just voice calling. |

Hello UNLIMITED Local, Long distance, voicemail, call waiting, 3-way calling, unlimited texting and unlimited 411 service for $47 per month. available for $37 for just voice calling. Not hardly.. not for some time to come. You do understand WHY 'per minute' plans were the way they went, right? .. nothing more really than a way to control a limited resource.
You can slap an unlimited price plan on a service and think that the industry is turning around to an all you can eat pricing point, when in reality their doing it as a customer grab.
Cell towers can only hold so many conversation at a time no matter how you price the monthly service but in the end, there is still a crowd control problem that these all-unlimited plan providers ARE going to face.
Also, unlimited 411 still uses minutes where that applies. Free 411 has been out now for a while with services like google 411, so in fact, everyone has access to free 411 if they want it. I also wouldn't wish MetroPCS's version of texting on the people I hate. |
