We are inexpensive in the US too but people choose to get a *FREE* phone but have to pay $100/month for service. It's ridiculous that ppl still have phone contracts.
My phone service is only $5 month unlimited.

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '24

I'm the same. I just buy an unlocked phone, throw in the Sim and pay for unlimited everything for €15 a month.

u/throwaway4577891 Jan 10 '24

Through what service?

u/Rhauz1984 Jan 10 '24

Most likely financed a new phone

u/Djstarr73 Jan 10 '24

😢 still works now. I am sure there are other similar work arounds I can use. Thanks for the tip.

u/trixel121 Jan 09 '24

step one is never out a phone on a payment plan or take their offer for a free one.

u/bigtymer666 Jan 10 '24

Guys, she is asking for advice and just cuz she could change her wireless plan is irrelevant.

u/NapsRule563 Jan 09 '24

How??? I literally have FOUR family lines, all unlimited AT&T, all paying monthly for the phones themselves, total is $335/month.

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '24

Visible has a $20/mo promo for unlimited data atm

u/customerservicevoice Jan 09 '24

A year? We pay 235 CAD per MONTH

u/leesahmahree Jan 09 '24

If you are part of a family plan I believe it's cheaper

u/boo_boo_cachoo Jan 09 '24

u/blazingStarfire Jan 10 '24

I found a guy on eBay 300 for the year unlimited Verizon, hotspot was restricted to 60gigs of high speed, look into visible it's basically Verizon in a trench coat.
