Corleone · 06-27-2004, 01:15 PM

~100 for normal phone

SlickRick · 06-27-2004, 01:17 PM

Raven · 06-27-2004, 01:17 PM

74. cell
133. phone, including long distance, etc. - 2 lines.

Doctor Dre · 06-27-2004, 01:17 PM

Eww 1.5g ? I pay like 80 $ internet, 160 $ for my 2 cell phones (I got one at home as a normal phone line and one I carry) .

For the business its a little more expensive ... probably 1000 $ bills monthly .

Fabuleux · 06-27-2004, 01:17 PM

$0 for cell phone (includes 120 free minutes which I never use)
$100 for normal phone and DSL.

Manowar · 06-27-2004, 01:17 PM

don't call those expensive phone sex lines mate

StuartD · 06-27-2004, 01:18 PM

damn, that's crazy... it's usually about $120 for my landline/dsl and $60 or so for my cell (non convention time).

So $180 on average.

Yeah, but I got a cell with a huge LD plan since I'm always roaming in Canada, US, South America or Europe. Then I got my blackberry for email access when I'm away. Then got my regular phone, and a 1-800 # to my cell for cheap asses, then on top of that I got a t1 frame to the office...shit doesn't come cheap, but it keeps me in touch when I'm really needed.

Tuna · 06-27-2004, 01:19 PM

last month was 270 or so

$230 a month for mine, GF's and the three kids. Fuck man. I didn't have a cell phone at 7th grade. They didn't even exist back then. Now I'd be a fucking abusive parent to allow my kids to walk to the store without one (for safety's sake).

Babagirls · 06-27-2004, 01:22 PM

about $45 for home line

anywhere from $45 to $75 for cell

Cells have gotten ridiculous...the marketing campaign is all targetted towards the youth now, even though most of them are too young to sign the contracts.

Danny Dukes · 06-27-2004, 01:23 PM

Man you guys are gettting off easy on the cell phone bill! Mine averages about $400 a month, but then again I dont have land line I use my cell 24 7.

Khun · 06-27-2004, 01:24 PM

50 for the phone, 80 for the cell

Sosa · 06-27-2004, 01:26 PM

$35 cell phone bill.

sextoyking · 06-27-2004, 01:27 PM

We save quite a bit of money at home and at the office with a few lines from, www.packet8.net

20.00 per month per line, unlimited usa/canada calls.

if you have high speed net, give this a shot. We have had it for over 1 1/2 yrs and works great..

1 regular line at the office (pots) 1 fax line, and 6 voip packet8.net lines

Not available in canada - and most of my minutes are chewed thru my cell since I'm on the road 6 days a week usually.

pushpills · 06-27-2004, 01:30 PM

you guys are getting ripped

im 45/mo for cell and i talk nonstop and never pay attention to minutes

and 8 bucks a month for my backup phone line in case i need to use dialup and cable goes kapow.

TheEnforcer · 06-27-2004, 01:33 PM

$20.55 for unlimited calling to the USA and Canada!!

sextoyking · 06-27-2004, 01:33 PM

Ego,

packet8 will send there unit anywhere in the world, but yes you will only get a usa phone #, but I belive in reading the voip forums at, www.dslreports.com that there are some canadian voip providers already.

Try going over to england or turks & caicos and using your phone/receiving calls - see how far that 45/month will get you.

Nice to see someone else is taking advantage of VOIP and saving a big chunk of money. I signed up with Packet8 about 3 months ago, and the flat rate $20 per month for unlimited calls anywhere saves me an insane amount of money. I have an 800 voicemail number from ureach.com if anyone needs to reach me, which sends a text to my cell with the number that called, and how long the message is. All in total, I pay about $150 for the internet connection, phone lines (voip & cell) and my 800 voicemail #.

I think if I'd go with anybody, it would be Vonage for VoIP...I believe Telus is doing it *somewhat* in Canada. Either way, I'm not at any of my offices enough to use it, my bills all come from my Blackberry & Cell, and the t1 ain't cheap either.

Sly_RJ · 06-27-2004, 01:36 PM

My cell is around $40, I only use it when away from home for extended periods of time. Home line is about $30. Cable is about $50. So around $120 for everything.

sextoyking · 06-27-2004, 01:38 PM

TE, Pun,

good to hear things are going well

with Voip, packet 8 works splendid. you pick up the phone like normal and dial a number, 1-xxx-xxxx

When I goto my office in europe 3-4 times per year, I bring my packet8 adapter from home with me, plug it in the highspeed network in the office there, within 1 minute I now have a usa phone # ringing in europe. Wife / kids can call me anytime for free, and I can call anyone and the office for no charge, 6k miles away

Vonage sounds pretty sweet....I'd get it if I was in the US...a few good friends of mine are on the leadership team for Net 2 Phone, that also looks like a sweet deal in numerous countries

Peaches · 06-27-2004, 07:21 PM

$135 for my local phone service - three lines and DSL. $40 for the cell phone. No 800 number - if someone wants to call me, they pay

Marcus Aurelius · 06-27-2004, 07:26 PM

$30.00 a month unlimited to US and canada.

Vonage is neat, but they got slapped with some new regulations in NY... can't wait to see how it plays out

TheWildcard · 06-27-2004, 07:31 PM

$200... I don't call a lot anymore.

Spunky · 06-27-2004, 07:32 PM

About 100 bucks dsl included

Tom_PMs · 06-27-2004, 07:33 PM

~ $25 for message rate landline service, and -$5 a month LD. I get a $5 credit everymonth from a long distance carrier because I used to sell their service. So my first $5 is always free.

No cell, dislike them.

beemk · 06-27-2004, 07:34 PM

$30 for cell

Lets see.. 26 bucks or so for a landline, + 35 for my cell + 30 for my cable modem.

90 bucks Canadian a month.. not too extreme.

Jace · 06-27-2004, 07:37 PM

$150 for cell on that sprint unlimited everything plan they have...no limits on anything

$20 for home phone

don't need much more than that

Loki · 06-27-2004, 07:39 PM

well lets see lol up till last month i was getting fucked on LD so my bills were about 400 - 700.00 per month for my landline

now i got unlimited LD from AT&T for 25.00 p/m so the bills should run about 120.00 a month now

-Loki-

Jedimaster · 06-27-2004, 07:41 PM

29.95 unlimited with optimum phone

SweetT · 06-27-2004, 07:42 PM

Including internet access??? LOL!!! Well, I dont think it would be fair for me to include internet access as my long distance bill......lets just say that most people could buy a nice, upper-middle class home for what I spend in internet access per month.

(of course, you could buy a decent used car for what we spend in real long distance, too

Jer · 06-27-2004, 07:43 PM
