I'm a long time Cingular Wireless customer in Southern California. In fact I was their customer even when they still called themselves Pacific Bell Wireless. Just yesterday I did a equipment upgrade for my current line at a Cingular Wireless authorize store at San Gabriel area and I also opened 3 additional new line added to my current line that I'm now using. By opening those 3 new lines I have to pay $9.99 for each every month and added to my current bill. So 4 lines (3 new + 1 currently I'm using) together sharing the minutes that I currently have. Cingular Wireless calls this the Family Talk plan.
The good thing is that this authorize store gave me a $200 credit for each line I added. So I totally got $600 credit. So I used these credits and got 2 brand new phone. The good thing is that if you don't want any phone you can ask for credit and they will write you a company check for $600.
so the math is the following:
$9.99 x 12 months (oh yea, 1 year service agreement required) + $18.00 (required activation fee) = $137.88
since I have opened 3 lines the cost for one year is:
$137.88 x 3 = $413.64
$600 credit - $413.64 = $186.36
if I didn't get the new phones $186.36 is how much I can make. Since I have to pay for the line I'm using all I added is $29.97 to my current bill each month plus $18 x 3 for the first month only.
The more lines you add the more you'll make. I'm not sure how much line is limited per account.
The good this is that you don't even have to use those additional line you can just let it sit there and not use it at all. All you can use is just the master line.
Also the store told me that I can even get more $$$$ if I don't do a equpiment upgrade for my current line and just open 4 new lines. I'm not sure how much but I'm sure you can get more than $600. For you people who are using cellphone and it is a must have item then this is a hot deal.

My friend just told me that now you can open 1 new line and 3 additional lines together in a family plan getting the 600 any min + 5000 N+W for 40 + 10 + 10 +10. If you don't get any new phones at all, you'll get a check in amount of $999. This is more than enough to pay for the entire service for a year.
