We pay $82 all in, with taxes, for a landline and 50/50 internet (fios). What a waste. These suppliers throw all kinds of deals out to get you to switch, but then don’t play when you want a better deal. Ok, time to move my business.
The bill was $76, then they just upped the landline fee. We barely use the landline, I was keeping it for 911 reasons, but kids are old enough now and it’s not like we live in the middle of nowhere.
So I’m thinking I want to put my old landline onto a sim and use one of my old iPhones as the landline. We can get fancy with the handsets all over the house later....
My iPhones are AT&T, but can be unlocked. I’m thinking of one of the freedompop plans that is like $49.99/yr for 1000 minutes.
So I’m curious:
- What does one need to know about taking their landline mobile?
- What’s the best voice only service for minimal cost per year to maintain a number?
It looks like I can get xfinity 200/10 for $39.99/mo, so if I can get phone for $4/month, I’m doing good.
We boycott television, so no need for that.
Anthing else to consider?
Thanks!
