My husband’s cell phone contract expired a few days ago. He’s kept his service with the same provider for more than 10 years and we decided it was time to make sure we were saving all we possibly could. Since I’ve been with the same provider for 14 years and he’s been with his for 10, it’s safe to say we haven’t shopped around recently and were totally unprepared for the insane sales pitches from every provider in San Diego County. And of course, all of them have ‘the best service’ and ‘the lowest prices’.
Sigh. It was an awful way to blow a Sunday afternoon.
But, we found a provider we both liked, he got a cell phone that actually works, AND, we’re saving $30 a month. It turns out, we were paying for services he wasn’t using on his old plan and we didn’t register numbers as our top 10 friends and family for free calls. I felt REALLY stupid when the plans were explained and I discovered all the mistakes we had been making.
Rather than simply write a check for your cell phone bill this month, make sure you are on a plan that fits you. You may be flushing $30 a month!
