I recently bought a cell phone. It wasn't the cell that I really wanted, I didn't have enough money. So it is one of the old flip phones. I got it from cricket. I will be paying about $40 a month. I will get unlimited talk, unlimited text, long distance, web, and other basic features. I also didn't have to sign a contract. I'm excited to get it. Cricket had the best deal I could find. Every other company was more money a month. Other companys had better phones, but there plans were more money each month. I was wondering how much other people usually pay a month for your cell phone? What company do you have?

Well, my provider of mobile communication is called Elisa, it's a European company. I pay exactly as much as I use the service. It means that the less I talk or text, the less I pay. I think that my monthly mobile bill is around 10-15 USD.

Its always good to pay for what you use. I like the idea of paying less if you use the cell phone less.

It depends on which country you live in and what kind of work you do. Personally speaking, I live in China and am a customer of CMCC (China Mobile Communication Company). I choose one of its plan, the basic price of which is nearly 4 USD monthly. It contains unlimited receiving calls, 160 sms and 50m gprs. If I call people in the same city, the price is o.16 USD per minute.

Well I live in the united states. Four dollars a month is not a lot of money at all. I'm glad I have long distance. At least two of my friends are long distance and I barely get to talk to them.

I pay $36.50 each month for my cell phone. The service is with AT&T. I get 300 minutes during the week and 5,000 minutes evenings and weekends. It was the cheapest program AT&T had to offer. Don't have texting or voice mail but that's fine with me. Have long distance also. My cell is one of the first phones with a camera so it's old but works great. Don't use it that much since we still have 2 landlines in our house and I am home on a regular basis.

No Phone - I cannot afford even $40 a month, abit I wish I could.
I don't have a cell phone. I cannot afford even $40 a month, abit I wish I could. Nor do I really have a use for a cell phone as I am more or less house bound. No matter, I live at a computer's keyboard so I am not shut off from life. I have the global Internet at my fingertips.

I don't pay a lot for my cellphone bill every month. First, I don't have many calls. Second, I usually take advantage of the wifi/GPRS connection and send SMS free from my cellphone. So usually I pay about USD7 every month for my cellphone bill. I love China

That's not a lot of money for a cell phone each month. Do you have a prepaid cell phone? Hopefully I will get a lot of calls and text. I checked other companies and the other cheapest company was about sixty dollars a month and less features. I'm excited because I have never had a cell phone. Plus I don't have to worry about who is on the home phone. I don't get many calls because most people don't want to call the home phone.

I do not load regularly because I used internet most of the time. But I know those people who spend almost everyday for their load.

Hello. Here in the Philippines, we have a Globe Telecom Provider. I'm a prepaid subscriber and I allot $15 per month. That would be unlimited texting but not to calls. That's good enough for me. I don't need to place much calls. However, the postpaid subscription offers $20 only for unlimited SMS and calls so long as within the same network.
