OUch, AT&T RIP OFF - iPhone 3G allure

[Primejimbo]

Those that are paying $170 a month or more, you guys are craaaaazzzzy! I'm never gonna make this apple tax/at&T blunder again. jesus, money thrown out the window straight into AT&T's greedy as s mouth.

If I would have gotten a Blackberry at Verizon (or at&t) I would be paying the same price as I do with the iPhone. Even if I stayed with Verizon and kept my Voyager, the price was 10.00 or so difference. I don't think the iPhone plans are that badly priced (considering if I stayed with Verizon, it would have been 10.00 less for crappy email viewing and crappy internet over the iPhones). Sure I wish they were cheaper, who doesn't?
If you're that mad over the price, why don't you just go with Cricket?

I can get on tmobile with all 3 lines and unlimited texting for $67 before taxes after my business discounts.

That looks like a whole $8/month cheaper than what AT&T charges, if your business still had their discount with AT&T.

$59.99 = AT&T Family Plan for two lines
$09.99 = add another line
$30.00 = unlimited texting for family plans
--------
$99.98

$99.98 - 25% = $75

So with your $67/month T-Mobile bill, you're getting no data for your iPhones?

hell yeah take your phones to t-mobile.

I have 700 minutes, unlimited texting and unlimited data

Blackberry Storm and iPhone 3G

we pay $145
I just discovered I can get a discount on my bill from the company I work for! SO hopefully our bill can go down a little bit with that.

Wait a tick... Isn't the Storm a CDMA phone? Am I correct in thinking T-Mo is a GSM carrier. I believe that was the reason given for the iPhone only being able to work on T-Mo and not Verizon. Not calling you a liar or anyting just confused.

The fine print? Do they happily tell you the outrageous local, state, federal taxes that are charged as well BEFORE you sign up? I don't think so...fine print for the monthly cost is easily calculated. However, they don't disclose the typical tax added which can exceed and additional $25-$30 a month!

No, but I'm sure T-Mobile will

when you pay for att your getting a WAY better network, and your 3g will work all over the world, not just in the us. the only thing tmobile has on att is there customer support.

just go into the att store and tell them your angry and that you were cheated out of your money and that your gonna cancel your service if they dont do something to fix it immediatly. trust me Tmobile's service is horrible!

the storm is a cdma phone but it has gsm capabilitys because they needed to market it as a world phone to compete with the iphone/G1 it has a sim card spot and can be unlocked for ATT and Tmobile

unlimited texting on all 3 lines

just want to be sure you know that AT&T has a $30 family texting plan (unlimted) some don't realize and end up paying seperately for all three

that's what i have with my iphone and fmaily plan

 

[Hauss316]

It has a sim card slot, you can unlock it and use it with a GSM carrier. We definitely use a Blackberry Storm with T-Mobile.

I check the premier site about once a week for the rate plan prices. I plan on getting two iPhones and a non-iPhone in July. My monthly cost with the least amount of minutes and unlimited shared texts (with discount from my employer) would be $143 before taxes. Expensive? Yes, but I've waited for a 32Gig iPhone since they came out.
