AT&T ANR (Employee) Plan $25

2000 Anytime Min (No RollOver)
Unlimited N/W
Unlimited SMS/MMS
Unlimited DATA

All on a 3GS which I got for $200 w/o signing contract. These AT&T ANR plans are not like Sprints SERO plans where anyone can sign up for. You have to work AT&T Mobility.
 
On Tmobile using the Motorola Cliq.

$40- 1000 minutes
+
$35- Unlimited text/Web
$75



So about 75 before taxes. I envy a lot of the people posting here...This thread made me call tmobile to see if I could lower my minutes. I don't use nearly 1000.
 
8€/month (Unlimited Data plan. Speed lowered when traffic gets to 500MB)
Around 10-15€ for Voice and SMS (8cents/minute calls)

Total: 18-23€
 
Almost $40, after all the taxes and fees.

$30 for 500 minutes and unlimited data
$7 for replacement insurance on my phone

Sprint SERO
 
$150 family plan (3 phones)

1400 minutes + 10 friends/family free (Verizon to Verizon is free also)
Unlimited texting
Unlimited Data for one smartphone

22% discount too I think.

ÂŁ95 ($146)

My 3GS and my girlfriends Nexus One.

Work got me a HTC HD2, but obviously I don't pay for it.
 
$60 after taxes for Sprint's Everything 450 plan. I get 25% off my bill with an employer discount. PEACE.

EDIT:

450 minutes to call landlines
unlimited night and weekends (nights go from 7pm to 7am, which is extra-awesome)
unlimited data
unlimited text
unlimited calls to any cell phone, regardless of carrier

Can't beat that for $60 a month. I have more phone flexibility than SERO users, and nights starting at 7pm, IMO, is the best benefit of all. No other carrier has that for unless you pay extra.

I have the same thing :D :D

Can't wait until the EVO4G launches so I can tack "unlimited 4g" to that also.

Yeah. I hope they're not gonna charge us extra for that. Hopefully the surcharge that's rumored is just for using the phone as a hotspot, and not to access 4G. 4G should be part of regular data. Besides, in a few years the other carriers are probably gonna be kicking our butts on 4G bandwidth anyway. But for now, best deal in the land. PEACE.
 
I have a BlackBerry Bold and Motorola Droid that work pays for.

I pay for 2 Motorola Droids on my personal account so its about 150 a month.
 
$18.50 after taxes, Sprint 3rd Party employee plan (used to be in Best Buy Mobile, moved departments but they don't really keep tabs):

3,000 Anytime
Unlimited everything else (including phone as modem)

And no restriction on what phone I can put on the plan.

I envy you. I believe I have the same plan expect web & family plan and pay $120 a month to Sprint.

Well I get a discount thanks to my old job at a hospital. They don't seem to care I haven't worked for them for the past 2 years.:D

Amazed so many of you pay nearly $100 or more for just a phone plan.
 
I want to say with all the taxes and fees and such it's $110 for a 1400 min family plan with two phones and I still have my old ass text messaging plan for $10 a month from like a decade ago. I get 400 texts and 1 meg of data.

The thing that sucks is I'm on ATT, and I have waaaaayyyy to many roll over minutes that we never use. Yet to drop down the next plateau is 700 mins, and you don't get your calling circle at that level either. So I'm totally fucked in this regard. Sure we don't come close to 1400 used with a-list and free nights + weekends, but we'd definitely cut it close to 700 when losing a-list. Wish there was something in between, but fuck no.

I'd really like to switch to sprint or t-mobile because the price beats ATT and Verizon, but I won't get as good of coverage as I need especially when I head to our family lake house.
 
I load up around 50 sek or so a month through a pre-paid card.
So around 4.5£/7$/5€ a month.

And the american prices are pretty insane - free market yay!
 
$220 for 3 iPhone + Data, Family Txt message and whatever the lowest minutes available was for A-List. Although I get $50 back from my sister since she wanted an iphone on the plan so bad. So closer to $170 for just my wife and me.

Of course if I factor in AT&T Uverse TV and Internet along with the $220 Im giving over $350 a month in bills to AT&T.
 
$81.88 with AT&T after tax and all other fees

- 450 anytime minutes / Unlimited nights and weekends + Rollover (I think I'm up to like 3000 rollover :lol )
- 1500 text messages a month
- Unlimited Data

iPhone 3GS

I have an employee discount attached it to from an old job so I'm getting like 18% off my bill.
 
i used to be on the basic t-moble plan
$35 a month for 400 or 300 minutes or 500 minutes, i forgot

but recently joined a family plan with my bro and parents, don't know why we didn't do that a long time ago

$65 + taxes for the four lines in my family plan as opposed to $140 or so for 4 separate lines
:D
 
Way too much. Verizon is the most schizophrenic service provider I've ever been with, my bill seems to be a different amount each month.
 
$112 for a Blackberry and a Motorola W385. US Cellular. Don't remember the minutes all my friends have US Cellular so it doesn't cost us anything to call or text eachother.
 
I just don't think in NZ the majority people would ever consider paying these sorts of prices per month. No, we don't have cheap rates, but most students get by on 2000 texts (NZ$10 = US$6) plus a bestmate (unlimited calling/txting to one person; NZ$6 = US$4). I think the absolute maximum I would pay for my cellphone per month in NZ$30. I currently get by on basically $10.
 
About $121 for three phones (iphone 3GS & my mom and dad's phones) with unlimited texting for all lines and varying degree of plans as far as minutes are concerned.

The plans were transfered over from my mom's former corporate account (she retired from AT&T), so she has 1000 min. plus rollover, my dad has 450 plus rollover and I have 500 with rollover - along with unlimited data for my iphone.
 
About $47/month on Verizon. I'm assuming that I'm overcharged (no data, 10 cents per text), because the policy was created back 2 years ago and I've been too lazy to get it updated to a likely cheaper, more competitive policy.
 
I think I have the best deal ever. sprint contract with 450 minutes, unlimited mobile to mobile to anyone, unlimited text and unlimited data. essentially unlimited everything since just about every call I make is to a cell phone. I should be paying 69.99 but I have an employee discount 25% that takes off $14 and then a $20 discount for not cancelling my contract. after taxes I pay $40 and some change for a plan on an HTC Hero. definitely not complaining.
 
$60 on Rogers, which considering what I have is stunningly light. It helps I'm in a smaller market. Use a first-gen Blackberry Bold.

$35 - 400 minutes, unlimited after 7/weekends, unlimited calls/SMS to 5 people, 500mb BB data
$15 - 2500 SMS/1000 MMS, caller ID, VM
$5 - 1000 minutes Canadian long distance (retention deal)
+ $6.95 Because We Can charge
+ $1.18 for 911 service
- $10 in discounts
+ taxes
 
$15-$20 a month. AT&T pay-as-you-go, $.25 a minute.

I communicate mostly online, Skype, chat, email. I use Google Voice for free voicemail. I only call if I meet up with people downtown, or when I have an emergency of some kind.
 
$67.50 after taxes on T-Mobile for Even More Plus 500 Talk+Text+Web. I alternate between the Nokia n900 and Nexus One. I'll probably switch back to AT&T whenever the new iPhone comes out unfortunately. I was paying around $100 for 450 minutes with unlimited text and data with them.
 
This thread makes me want to cry. WHen I got my Droid, I agreed with my mom to help with the phone bill, which she ninjad into me paying the whole family plan on my own. Seriously I said no and she just stopped looking at the bill altogether and let the payments start going late so I had no choice. Also she used the Verizon bogo to get herself a Droid when I got mine, which means a other thirty buck data plan for her to play fucking poker and nothing else on her phone that she can't even read the text and makes yet another piece of technology that I have to show her over and over how to do the same ridiculously easy tasks...

sorry needed to vent, I pay like 180 altogether even with my moms work discount. But every month I find random extra charges for my sister using data without a plan or downloading ring tones and whatnot.

arrrr.
 
On Orange pay as you go here. ÂŁ10 a month gets me a few hundred free texts, free internet access, and a small but adequate blackberry data plan. Alright if you don't rely on it for long calls. A 35p text gets me in on Orange Wednesdays action too.. a free extra ticket at the movies is nice.
 
$164.74 on AT&T lowest family plan with 2 iPhone 3GS. Supposedly a 9% discount attached it to, but when I do the math, it's more like 2%. AT&T lies out its ass so hard. That's why I have no qualms with burning through 10 GB of data this month streaming video from my computer to my phone via Air Video. Suck it AT&T.
 
I have a Nokia E71x with (ugh) ATT.
I have I think 500 minutes a month, because I don't call many places and have a ton of roll-over minutes and unlimited date. And a military discount.
But I call overseas a ton.

So my bill is about $350 dollars a month. But that should go down to about $80-$100 this time next month.
And yes, I know about a bit about Skype and VoIP programs, but my computer is a piece of shit.
 
Sprint...
About $90 a month after taxes and fees for 2 lines on the Everything Family plan.

1500 anytime minutes, unlimited cell to cell calls, nights start at 6 or 7
unlimited everything else.

Had SERO before but had to dump because they didnt offer shit for phones unless you had an everything plan and I wanted something new and shiny (Palm Pre's)
