That is, what plan are you on and what is the final cost of your monthly bill including tax and fees?

I'm on Sprint, 450 minutes, unlimited text/data, and I end up paying about 70 with my 23% employee discount.

I'm personally most interested in what those with AT&T 450 minute, unlimited text, 2GB data (probably the most popular option) pay. Without tax and fees, it would be $85 or so, but including them?
 
Hey man.

Im on AT&T with 450 minutes with rollover, unlimited text and 2gb of data, I also have another line on my plan which is NOT an iPhone, It is a simple bar phone, no texting, no internet.

After taxes I'm paying 142 bucks a month.
 
AT&T 450 minutes, unlimited text and any mobile-to-mobile, unlimited iPhone data (grandfathered) - ~$70/mo with FAN discount
 
700 Min family plan. 4 lines, 2 iPhones, 2 non-iPhones. Unlimited data on both iPhones, 750 business text.

After FAN discount, I pay ~$165 after taxes and fees. pretty good I think.
 
AT&T. 5 lines. 1400 minutes. A-List + Unlimited mobile-to-mobile calling. Unlimited messaging. 3 unlimited iPhone data plans. $220.
 
AT&T 4-line Family Plan: Unlimited text/mo-to-mo mins, 700 anytime.
2x2GB Data
1x250MB Data
1xNoData

$178/mo including taxes and 25% FAN on minutes and text.

AT&T

Family Plan:

2 iPhones with 550 rollover minutes (59.99)
Unlimited Texting (30.00)
2 Data plans at (15 ea. = 30.00)

After adding taxes and fees and applying discounts, my monthly bill is $116
 
Some of you guys must talk a lot. As long as I get Rollover minutes I'll never have to worry about going over my limit. Which is why I took the cheapest talk plan.

Same with text. I text socially 90% via Google Voice. And now iMessage will make things even better for those with iPhones. I still need to receive & send some text from my real number, so I went for the lowest text plan.

Don't care for free mobile to mobile or unlimited text.
 
AT&T Family plan with 2 iPhones
450 minutes, roll over, free nights/weekends
250MB data plans
200 texts

After taxes, monthly bill is $99.57 This includes a 20% discount (I think) on voice and text services). Seems pretty cheap for 2 iPhones. I would like to switch providers, but I think my bill would go up a minimum of $30 on Verizon, since they don't seem to offer plans this cheap/low. I do also get a 20% discount on Verizon too.

Same boat here! My husband gets us 15% off AT&T. I can get us 18% off Verizon, but I can't justify the extra money. Would be a lot more expensive for us to switch. I'm quite happy with my plan and price, so I'm staying. Every now and then I reconsider because of the rumors that VZ has better call coverage where I am. I just can't stomach the bigger monthly bill.

I am on an AT&T 5 line family plan. My line is the only one with a smartphone of any kind (iPhone 4) and I am on the 4GB with tethering plan. We have 700 anytime minutes, unlimited night and weekend minutes, unlimited text and mobile to any mobile, and other assorted features (a couple of the lines have roadside assistance, ect.)

All in all our bill is about $250 per month.

Purchased my iPhone 4 outright as a unlocked brand new phone from Apple Store Sydney. Then I just use prepaid sim card with Optus network. $40 per month, or $50 per month, depending on what I need. It works out pretty cheap.

I don't make a lot of calls, but I use it for internet and email on the go a hell of lot.
