$30x4 lines is $120. Plus 10gb data (forgot the price was ?$110 under old mobile share?). So $230 for 4 lines with subsides. Remember it's not $40/line. It's $30/line when you signed up for the 10gb data share under the old plan. $35/line with 6gb. $40/line with 4gb.
It's $120 for 10GB under the old plan...per month. So $240/month.
With ATT NEXT. You do not own your phone on day one. You only own it after paying what amounts to the full price even though 20 months of installments or paying it in full.
Wrong! With NEXT, you sign a finance agreement. You are responsible to pay off the phone, period. However, you own it. You can sell it on day 1 for $2,000 on eBay if you want. Pay off the balance with AT&T and move on...no strings attached. No more AT&T. If you didn't own it...how could AT&T allow you to sell it. Please visit their FAQ and learn about NEXT. Look for the question that says, "Do I own the smartphone? Or is this a leasing offer?"
It's evident you just cannot compare the old data shared plans to the new ones. For some odd reason, you keep comparing your ancient plan to these new plans. That's your prerogative. If your ancient plan saves you money...by all means, please do not switch. But to suggest that NEXT is a terrible deal versus those that subsidize an iPhone (on an iPhone line) is just disingenuous. Again, I refer you to the math. It does not lie.
