Help me understand the math. With contract I pay $200. Without I pay $750. Difference = $550. Divided by 24 months = $23. Do I pay more than that to ATT each month? Assumption is that I get a new phone every 2 yrs which I have been for the past many cycles.
- colinbartlett 12y agoWith a prepaid provider, I pay $50/month for unlimited internet, calling, and texting. There are no extra taxes or "recovery charges". $750 + ($50 * 24) = $1950 Last I checked, AT&T was about $100/month. It also charges a $36 "upgrade fee". $36 + $200 + ($100 * 24) = $2636 That also assumes you upgrade immediately after paying your 24th month of service. Otherwise, tack on $50 overpayment for every month you wait to upgrade.
