Who saves money by switching to AT&T's shared data plan?
The numbers don't remotely add up for me:
Before:
$225. 700 family minutes, $10 GB total data, Three iPhones and a dumbphone.
Or...
$240. What do I get for that extra $15?
Not worth it for us. I would have liked to save some money by sharing data, not pay more. Is there a scenario where folks save money, or isn't that the angle for AT&T?

$240. What do I get for that extra $15?
