Hi,
Things seem to be getting so complicated as far as getting a landline that has unlimited local calls (with caller ID, call waiting, I don't care about the other stuff) and either unlimited long-distance calls for a flat fee, ie. let's say for about 300 minutes.
My general phone bill's average is $30-$35/month local & long distance over a long period of time. My package of $18 with CC is ending this month. Now both my phone charges will double and so will my cable. I'm trying to wean off of comcast.
I don't care if the local is separate from the long distance, ie. let's say an unlimited local for $10 which is what AT&T used to offer for a long time. NOW you have to pay an additional $15 for the features that I want instead of them being included.
So, once I get the local for around $10, I would need a long-distance package either from the same company preferable for a flat fee for unlimited but I'm finding this hard to find, OR 3 cents per minute? How many cents per minute would it be for about 400 minutes or so.
Basically, I'd like my phone bills to be maintained at $35 maximum; sure occasionally I would go higher when I went over the long distance limit, but that was only occasionally.
Anybody have any suggestions, mixes and matches, or one company that has a good unlimited/long distance package. To me having local and long distance on one bill is not really a convenience.
I'd go with AT&T but now they are charging for each additional feature with the local rate of $10. Anybody have good referrals for a long distance company for either a flat rate for X amount of minutes of 3 cents a minute maximum that they are satisfied with?
It should be simple but I can't find a good combo.
I don't use my cell very much. It's T-mobile prepaid and I use it for emergencies and occasionally socially.
Anyone
