Re: They want what the cell phones have had for years When we renewed our cell phone contact a couple of weeks ago, we were faced with a catch-22. We were ditching our landline and going cell only. This meant that our minutes used would top the 700 our existing plan allowed. However, the 1400 plan also came with "Friends & Family" that let us set 10 numbers to get free calling to. Since we call the same 10 numbers over and over and since those are now "free", our billed minuted will likely drop under 700.
So we could either go with a cheaper plan that we knew we'd exceed, or go with the more expensive plan that we knew we'd never fully use. Some choice!

| I know what you mean, my family has 5 people with at&t and we usually use about 1000-1300 of the 1400 minutes we pay for. In total we do about 3000 minutes if you include N&W. Now after they released the "a-list" with 10 free numbers the first complete month of having it we still talked about 3000 minutes but only 225 of those counted toward the 1400. I guess it's nice that we basically have an unlimited plan now, but I completely would've preferred to drop down to the 700 minute plan and save money but of course - they don't offer it on the 700. We'll have about 12,000 rollover minutes at this rate. |
