Wireless Family Plans

Posted January 30th, 2009 by ucansue

Wireless Tip:  Family Plans mean you share minutes no matter how many phones are under that account.  Ecah phone added on the plan equates to an "upgrade" where it is most likely that your contract is extended by one or two years.  If you have 2 phones on a Family Plan and deciee you only need one, then you will no longer be on the Family Plan rate.  With one phone you become an individual at whatever the going rate for that phone and service are at the time of the change.  The trick is to be careful to review the pros and cons of so-called great deals.
