It never ceases to amaze me why people use expensive contract or non contract cell phone plans. At least in my circles. Most of my friends are retired or semi retired and pay for full featured plans. admittedly some do not have land lines but all have home internet.
Since I left work I have used T-Mobile Pay as you go no data plan. I have not missed my data plan at all. Last year I spent $100 on my cell phone and that was just to get the $100 Deal (10c per min), I have $37 left and it will need topping up in July 2014.
I use Wi-Fi hotspots if I need data on the go which is VERY rare, it is everywhere now you know and is really not a effort to find it if required.
I have GPS in the car and Texts are included in the phone plan.
Can anyone convince me to use a proper full service data/phone plan on my smartphone. I did spring for an unlocked Samsung S3 which works well.
Both DW and I have the same plan. She uses less than me as our home phone (Vonage $19.99pm [We call overseas too] and it is very reliable) rolls to my cell if we are not in.
If anyone can point me at a more economical (RELIABLE) home phone other than Vonage that lets me call, UK, Canada and others, AND plugs into my home phone jacks please let me know.
