What's your monthly phone bill?
 

Just paid mine - 1435.39$; that includes my phone, my cell, my blackberry, my 800 # and my t1 tho all on one bill. Anybody else dishing out an insane amount for just communications?

:helpme

~80 for cell..
~100 for normal phone

mines two lines are running about 250 a month minus the DSL thats 200. and I dont call anyone...WTF is that about.

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

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 .

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

about 250 a month for cell and landline

don't call those expensive phone sex lines mate :Graucho

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. :2 cents:

last month was 270 or so

But they're voices are so thexy

$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).

about $45 for home line

anywhere from $45 to $75 for cell :glugglug

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.

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.

50 for the phone, 80 for the cell

$35 cell phone bill.

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.

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.

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

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.

Totally correct and sextoyking was the one who turned me on to Packet8!! Damn glad he told me about it too!!

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.

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.

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 :)

do you still run that shell company?

I haven't ever run a shell company, however, I did have a box online for accounts for friends (Jared and so on).

and you make KRL so happy :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I live to serve.

ahh at foonet.

Yeah, I used to help Paul out with a lot of stuffon my spare time years ago, so I had a few boxes there for free. Foonet went the way of the dodo when new ownership came tho and so did my free time quite frankly.

Haven't seen you on NP in ages, what the dilio?

Youre all crazy vonage $40 a month and you can talk your lips off . lol

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

$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 :winkwink:

$30.00 a month unlimited to US and canada. :Graucho

www.Vonage.com

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