Looking at verizion Edge and AT&T Next additions...and I'm kind of baffled at how expensive it is to add a smartphone device to these plans.
They advertise lower prices, higher data caps, but in the fine print...it can get to be more expensive then what you have now. At best, maybe you break even.
AT&T next is especially hilarious because, they advertise that getting a SUBSIDIZED phone for no upfront cost, is somehow worse then AT&T Next 12 or 18, where you basically get put on a payment plan to pay the upfront cost of the phone. Of COURSE you can trade in your smartphone each year and get a new one, you just paid for the damn thing! lol
So basically, they will give you $15 a month off your bill if you agree to pay an extra $20-25 per month to pay off a new phone. Or, you could NOT get the discount, but also NOT have to pay monthly for the new phone. wtf?? :\
What is the problem we are having? Are we being taken for suckers now?
