Unlimited everything T-Mobile One
On auto pay, which saves $15.

Total monthly cost $245

Next....

I considered T-Mobile One Plus, but based on family’s data usage, it was best to stay on this grandfathered SC plan. I’m the only one who upgraded to iPhone X, I use typically 3-4gb, so the 6gb data plan is all I need.

About 240 w/veteran discount & auto pay discount although I pay early with chase ink for 5% discount. 5 iphone lines. one watch. One ipad. Verizon unlimited original one. Parents with two of the lines pay me a hundred a month. Work pays a 100 a month as well. I pay for phones in full upfront usually with funds from selling things as I don't want these to be part of monthly expenses (this was much easier when verizon subsidized on older plan along with watch & ipad lines & sim swapping but still good to do)
 
Verizon

2 lines, both are smartphones

8GB data plan + 4 GB bonus data
Unlimited texts and calls

One line has upgraded to iPhone X with device payment plan (approx. $48/mo)

Another line is upgrade available but no plans to, device was BYOD when he joined me (my old iPhone lol)

$20 line access x 2 (receiving 50% off for a yr as a promotion so actually $20)
$48 DPP
$70 data plan (-$7 with employer discount)
$10-12 approximately in taxes & gov fees

Totals out to around $140-145/mo

We pay our own bills separately though so I just pay somewhere around ~$50 a month plus my DPP, my other line guy pays ~$50 as well.
