Default How can I afford it.

I am with verizon wireless, and i just recently found a place to rent to live with the girl i am marrying. I got the phone to be mobile every where i go. I use it for work, and fire company email and alerts and such. what i am wondering is it time for me to get soemthing more affordable. I can't handle this $100.00 a month bill......

I love the phone but the cost is killing me.

i hear ya... bummer. i am in the lucky position that my boss pays about 70% of my bill, even though i probably would have it anyway and find a way :} i must add that my SO has a very good paid job.

It sounds like you get alot of use out of your Q.. perhaps you could examine some of your other monthly expenses and see if you can't offset the cost of your cell phone/data bill by cutting back on other stuff.

Default Sprint

Perhaps you would prefer sprints al u can get for 15 dollars instead? I know there is an ETF of course but this would help cut down on youe costs over time.

If money is an issue do what gfunkster said. Go to sprint.com/sero and you can get 500 minutes, free textand unlimited data w nights starting at 7pm for $30. It's almost a miracle!

Yep, thats what we have.

The wife and I both have Q's. With phone insurance ($7 per phone), taxes and service (each phone has unlimited data), our bill is $82 a month. We use alot of sprint mobile 2 mobile minutes, I think we used 1600 minutes total last month. Plus, SERO has unlimited text messaging included now. Its one helluva deal, definitely the best cell plan I have ever had.
