We No Longer Need a Big Carrier’s Wireless Plan. Discount Ones Are the Way.

With plans ranging from $60 to $200 a month for individuals and families, the price of a cellphone is soon eclipsed by the recurring service bills. What if I told you that it no longer had to be this way? Your phone bill could shrink to as little as $25 a month if you picked a wireless plan from a lesser-known service provider known as a discount carrier. The cheaper plans, based on my tests, offer sufficiently fast internet speeds and reliable phone service.
