Verizon, 3 phones, unlimited voice and text plus 16 GB/month shared with rollover. $155/month and that includes no devices charges.
Which of the less expensive providers are reselling Verizon’s network? We need coverage in western MA in the summertime and both AT&T and T-Mobile have terrible coverage there. |

| $82/mo for three lines on Consumer Cellular. Includes unlimited texts, 5GB data, and something like 250 phone minutes that we rarely approach. |

| We have 5 phones on our account, but I can never remember how much it costs because the payment comes out of our bank account so I don't even pay attention to it. |

| For people on Consumer Cellular, how is the coverage? Were you able to keep your own phones? |

| We use Xfinity for cellular. $12/gig (pooled) or $45/phone unlimited. Our kids don’t have phones yet but DH and I never break the 2 gig. So we pay $24/month, plus taxes and our phone payments which are $20ish/month for each phone. |

. You could pay roughly the same and get unlimited data with Verizon. $110 for unlimited data plan plus $20 for additional line, plus taxes and fees. |

Tmobile, unlimited data, $112/mo, two phones, but I don't think they offer this exact plan anymore.
Lower your bill by joining up with friends/relatives on a family plan or switch to a different carrier. Prepaid is cheapest if you don't use your phone a lot. |

| You start to see real savings with the major carriers at 4 lines. Less than that and you pay a premium. |

| 75 dollars for 3 lines with metro pcs. unlimited everything, but after the first gb, it slows down. but you can buy an extra gb whenever for 5 dollars. we never go over and use wi fi a lot. we did lose service in western very rural NY once. oh, and free phones when you switch over---but not fancy ones. |

Total Wireless -- it runs on Verizon's network, so coverage is great. $80 for 3 shared lines -- 20GB.

| I just qualified for TMobile’s 55 and older plan, which I read about first on DCUM. it’s 2 lines for $60 BUT we ended up replacing our iPhone 5s with 8s and got insurance so it’s $133 a month for two years till they’re paid off. Unlimited everything. Still paying a bit less than with AT&T with paid-off old phones. |
