A couple years ago I switched from a standard, contract-based US cell phone plan to a prepaid service it has felt so much more natural. Have a messed up my autopay and my phone just stop working in the middle of the day? Yep. But You just find some WIFI, pay, and its back on in minutes. I know exactly what my service costs: $35 dollars. No fees, taxes.
- remram 3y agoThat sounds awful and it's not even cheap!
- bradly 3y agoI guess that shows how bad the alternative is. How much is unlimited talk, text, data, hotspot with a watch data add-on where you are from? edit: Actually I was wrong–it is $30, not $35.
- remram 3y agoIn New York, I pay $26 for T-Mobile, one of the most mainstream carriers.
- bradly 3y agoWeird. The cheapest T-Mobile non-prepaid plan I see is $50 + taxes and fees, and that is without watch service. The cheapest T-Mobile prepaid I see is $30 + taxes and fees, and that also is without a watch. I pay $20 for the phone plan, and $10 for the watch add-on. No fees or taxes Feels reasonable to me.
- themoonisachees 3y agoMy phone bill is 10€. I get unlimited calls and text, 100Gb 4G/5G then unlimited 3g, in France. I could also get 50 MB data, 2h calls, unlimited texts for 2€.
- bradly 3y agoHow much to add a watch to the plan?
- themoonisachees 3y agoWhy would one ever want to add a watch to a phone bill? ISPs are notoriously fleecing their costumers on every front, why would you ever go to them to get a loan?
- bradly 3y agoIt isn't a loan. It is cell service for a Watch.

- w0m 3y ago> Have a messed up my autopay I stopped ~all autopays when (Boost Mobile?) deduced 200 instead of 20usd from my debit account one month in college. They refunded the difference relatively quickly, but I racked up 5 or 6 overcharge fees before realizing; ended up being a pita for an already broke 18 y/o to figure out. I was a broke and stupid kid. Never use a debit as an autopay. But since then I like to track where each penny goes as it goes.
