For me, I pay:

450 minutes: $39.99

Unlimited Data: $29.99

200 Text Messages: $4.99

Best Buy Insurance: $14.99

On top of that, I have taxes. I pay about $100 a month. Is there anyway I can get more minutes/texts and pay less?

A friend of mine pays $60 a month and gets unlimited texts and 900 minutes.
 
Whatever amount I want, pay as you go.

Say, couldn't you use the search button? Because I saw this same question as a thread a month ago.
 
Sorry, I'm new. Does anyone know where I can get a cheaper and better insurance than the Best Buy one? Or will Apple Care give me a new iPhone if I show them my damage one?

Are you using an iPhone 3G with the AT&T network Pay As You Go? Because I'm interested in this.

Anyways, I pay exactly $58.99 a month with 300 minutes, unlimited texting, unlimited data.
 
250 daytime minutes
unlimited evenings (6pm) & weekends
unlimited incoming
unlimited Rogers-to-Rogers
2500 texts
voicemail/caller ID
no data

$42 after fees and taxes

How are you paying that? Is that with AT&T? On the site there's no 300 minutes. The lowest is 450. Wth...

Family plan, 2 iPhone lines (1st gen. + 3G)

700 minutes shared. Unlimited text on 3G line.

$154 a month.
 
Fido 3G

30 - 6 gig data (but honestly that's unlimited to me)
25 - 100 daytime minutes, Unlimited evenings + weekends, unlimited sms
10 - iPhone value pack (caller id, voice mail, etc.)

so about $70 after tax and overages.
 
iPhone 3G on AT&T:

650 minutes -- $39.99 (Nation 450 + 200 free bonus minutes)
1500 B2B texts -- $8.99

- 15% FAN discount

= $71.25 / month 😀
 
1400 minutes family plan $129.99
iPhone data - $30
Unlimited Texts - $30

Over $200 when it's all said and done.
 
Family plan with iPhone 3G as the primary.

$49.99 (primary line) + $30 data plan + $30 Texting on all lines -19% FAN discount and then 3 additional lines at 9.99 each.

Comes out to just under $140 per month.

We were paying about $85-88 with no fan and 4 lines before (no iphone;no features).
 
If I had one then I'd be on prepay at 25c/minute and 5c/MB. My carrier's current network is CDMA2000 but they're launching WCDMA in June so I might be picking one up then if the "Mid 2009" model is half-decent 🙂
 
$15/mo for insurance. Are you serious??

AppleCare is a $69 one time fee and covers nearly anything except misuse, of course.

Over your contract, you'll be spending $600 on the insurance. The phone itself doesn't cost that much!
