Damn if that's a good deal they're really fucking you over there. I'm paying about $11 USD a month for unlimited calls, texts and data (Ireland) with roaming data included. I got an early deal with a new carrier about two years ago but it's €15 a month for the same now.

Not trying to get you to switch, but my current Mint Mobile plan is $20/month for unlimited talk & text and 15g high speed data. Uses T-Mobile's network. Only issue is that you have to pay a year at a time to get the price that low.

There's a AT&T prepaid plan that has that same items for the same $30/month. The AT&T one also includes free roaming in Canada and Mexico, and international texting free.

Apologies if my response came off as aggressive. That was not my intent.

We're good!

That’s really interesting! Is it because you don’t really use your phone much and/or connected to wifi?

I use my phone a lot actually.

$40 a month is unlimited talk and text to and in USA, Canada, and Mexico. 30GB data at 5G speeds with unlimited at 1.5Mps after the 30GB is exhausted. That applies to hotspot usage too when you bring your own phone. It even includes 5GB of data when roaming in Canada or Mexico.

I remember how expensive phone bills used to be back when you paid per min and text, it’s really hard to imagine that being an economical daily choice for many.

I remember that too! Those days are long long ago. Prepaid isn't "pay per min" like it was back in the late 90s or early 2000s. I think the reason people don't look at them is because they used to be that way. Its been unlimited plans available for more than a decade. I really don't see the point of post-paid unless you can't afford to buy your phone outright and need to spread the cost over months of service which postpaid will do for you.
