“Cell phones are compulsive and addictive. I get by with talk and text but others are using their smartphones to the max racking up supersize bills.....”
That’s just not true anymore. Both of my kids have smartphones. My son’s bill (reduced for being a reliable subscriber to Boost Mobile) is only $45 a month for unlimited talk, text, and internet. My daughter pays $40 for her iPhone subscription.
If I could get reliable service where I live, I’d dump my $65 a month house phone like a hot potato. As it is, with *their* crappy reception, I’m the only one who has reliable service that doesn’t drop, crackle or cut out.
It’s getting better and, in a couple of years, I’ll only have a cellphone, too.
see post 43..... If you have a good internet connection you can go VOIP and dump the copper landlines.
Alternatively___ WALMART has a phone that costs only $15 per month that connects via the cellular networks. Its like a stationary cell phone that remains in your house, that you plug your conventional phones into.
The unit costs $69 then just $15 per month for service
