Adding a non-data line to cheap iPhone plan.

[hugemullens]

Hey all, haven't posted in 3 years but finally getting an iphone.

I'm looking to do the 69.99 a month plan as i'd love the data package but never actually talk on a phone it seems. My wife needs a phone, but she too never talks on it.

So can you just add a line for $10? Meaning I'd have an iphone, she'd have a plain phone, and we'd have 450 minutes between the two of us?

As some point I'll check with ATT, but i figured I'd ask here and see what everyone knows, as it never hurts to have some knowledge on the matter.

no. to share minutes you need a familytalk plan. Starts at $59.99 for the first 2 lines for 550 minutes. Just add $30 for your data plan

so your total is $89.99
and you get:
550 anytime shared
unlimited nights, weekends, mobile to mobile
unlimited data on ipone only

so i can basically choose any familytalk plan and add $30 to it to make it "iphone-able"?

correct.... all the plans are the same

but when you look at the iphone voice plans, they add the data charges in without explaining it
