Damolee · Dec 14, 2012, 05:19 AM

32.... I have a sim free iPhone 5 64GB, but have a current contract for £33 (So what's that? $40-$45) a month with unlimited everything. (Data, texts, calls)

I thought this would be a poll question, but alas it wasn't. I'm 29, I have an iPhone 5 (black, 32GB, AT&T) and I pay the bill with my own money. It's about $105, since there is one additional line; but it isn't a smartphone. Only option I have besides unlimited text is Smart Limits ($4.99)

[^ looks at Join Date, performs mathematical calculations]

You joined MR at 4 years old?!?

Apparently I'm old, relative to most who have stated their age here.

I have a black 16 GB 4S.

Yup, been paying my own phone bill (and then some) for about as long as yg17's been alive.

iapplelove · Dec 14, 2012, 07:41 AM

33 male. Black iPhone although I have owned plenty white ones

84 bucks a month unlimited AT&T

Joining MacRumors does not necessarily indicate being smart.

GeorgieAcevedo · 08:02 AM

19, iPhone 5. $80 a month with college discount (not in college anymore but discount still there) I pay it. I also have a BMW x6. I pay that too.

ChristianJapan · Dec 14, 2012, 07:58 AM

Age: Second half of life.
Company pays my iPhone 4; don't know how much. Some corporate rates.
Still need to convince my boss and boss-boss that I urgently need an iPhone 5. Home-button really get bad.

lovetamarav · Dec 14, 2012, 08:14 AM

26. iPhone 5. I pay my own bill, it's around $160 a month as my hubby has an iPhone 4 on the account as well.

Leonard1818 · Dec 14, 2012, 08:22 AM

29
iPhone 5 = me
iPhone 4s = wife

been paying my own bill since before smartphones existed.

We actually went to Verizon many years ago and they said if we broke onto our own account (off of our respective parents accounts) we could get ne2 pricing -- and my phone was in bad shape. After 4 hours of work, they get us on our own accounts and problem... we aren't eligible for Ne2. I could have broken every device in the store I was so mad. THEN it ends up costing us way more $$ per month.

Moral of the story -- never get off of your family plan. Just pay your parents the difference for your line. It's cheaper.

nickchallis92 · Dec 14, 2012, 08:26 AM

Original iPhone, im 3 and Santa pays for my bill

I am still in my first half of life, I have 2 iPhones on my account 2GB data each and pay $118 a month. I am thinking about removing text plan to save another $30+ a month. Most text come iMessage or email now.
