How much are guys paying a month for cellular service and with which carrier.

Specifically looking for single lines.

Mines ~$57/month that includes all the tax, surcharges, etc. I’m on a mobile share 3gb plan on ATT. My iPhone 13 pro is paid off.

Trying to see if there’s something cheaper.

I pay 25 bucks a month flat. Visible is awesome. While they did introduce new plans that are a bit pricier I think the service is fantastic. I’ve been with them almost 2 and a half years and had very minimal issues. Now I’m sure some people will weigh in and say visible is very slow and it does depend on your area as they are Verizon service but deprioritize visible members in a highly congested Verizon area so to speak. In my area and I haven’t had any issues. You can test them out for free for 2 weeks I believe so that’s a plus. You just can’t beat 30 bucks a month flat for unlimited everything.

Mmhm; is this a family plan? Where do you currently work?

Personally I work for AT&T as of right now for the next two weeks. I would get your plan changed over to AT&T Unlimited Value for $50/month with AP it'll still be around that $57 pricing and you get Unlimited talk, text and data. It's basically the same as Unlimited Starter without the hotspot and without getting special promotions on the flagship phones but with your current plan you don't have that anyways.

Not sure if it’s a family plan. I work at Intel.

Would it be 50/month including tax,surcharges etc? I’d think it’d be more overall switching.
 
Four phones (2 iPhones, 2 Pixels - one financed), a watch, an iPad and a $20/mo Verizon loyalty credit - $248.
 
T-Mobile - $90 for 3 phones, unlimited data/text/talk/etc.

No; that's why I stated it'll still be around the $57 pricing you pay now because taxes are usually $6-$8 per line always. I still think you should consider it though. It's unlimited data compared to 3GB. It's only for Single Lines though keep that in mind.

$25 Visible with 5G unlimited, tax included.
Visible sounds very good. It looks like no option for apple watch cellular though, given their two plans only, is that right?

I am currently on Cricket via family members, $25/month unlimited data, talk, text. Pretty good deal, I just wish they had an option for cellular watch service.
 
I pay 10€ per month for cell service only (phone has been bought separately) and that gets me 10 GB of mobile data usage on one number.

I‘ve been meaning to switch to an unlimited plan at some point, but I‘ve noticed that I barely even need the 10 GB every month. For messenger use and forums, that‘s more than sufficient and I don‘t really have a need to do anything demanding more data when I‘m on the go.
 
5 lines for $160 including all taxes and fees. Unlimited, priority data and hotspot 50gb. T-Mobile with insider and third line free.

Generally, $12/month, excl. taxes/fees, with Xfinity Mobile w/1Gb/month & unltd talk/text package.
Living, working and traveling in many areas with available wifi helps keep the monthly costs low.
If I do go over 1Gb, it's $10/Gb which is pricey. That generally happens whenever I travel.
If I really need more, then it's $30/3Gb for 1 month but am able to convert back down to 1Gb month.

I have Verizon. 3 lines, $145 + tax.

It’s a little high, but we do get the Disney bundle for free which my family uses on an almost daily basis.

I also have the Verizon card, which is an amazing credit card. I redeem all the Verizon dollars directly to my bill, which ends up being about a $20-40 reduction each month, give or take.
 
I pay $100 for 4 lines Unlimited All on US Mobile with taxes included. They raised the prices for their new plans now but it was the best deal in the market. 4 lines also get you two perks like Netflix Standard and Apple Music Family.
So in the end it’s less than $70 for 4 lines.
