[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD (now 7th grade) got an iPhone in the sixth grade.  Because it made it easier to communicate.  With my family plan, it costs $180/mo, not $700/mo.

Right now, with a smart phone, I can keep a better eye on my DD.  It has parental controls.  And it has tracking -- so I know where she is.

Learn to read. I said $700/year. Which is what it is.

$40 a month line access fee, plus $10 in taxes is $50 a month/$620 a year. Plus the cost of the phone.[/quote]

Not if you are adding to an existing plan.  Or if you use a Republic.  My kids have unlimited talk, text, and data. $25 a month.[/quote]

Yes if you are adding on to an existing plan. At least on the Verizon More Anything plan.

Do your phone have smart phones? Or just dumb phones with texting?

Smart phones are basically $10 line access fee to add on, plus about $40 for data. They give you more data now, but that's what it is.

That said, we do have Verizon More Anything plan. http://www.verizonwireless.com/landingpages/more-everything/

But smart phone is $40 plus line fee plus taxes. It's actually closer to $55 a month.[/quote]
