Anyhow, here's my old plan.
-$64.47 tax included for the 2 lines
-100 minutes to share a month, only free weekends, no free evenings
-unlimited calling between the 2 lines
-my line had callder id, voicemail and 125 texts/month. my dad's line has pretty much nothing, which makes sense, as he barely uses it.

New plan:
-$57.60/month after tax
  • 250 weekday minutes/line, so 500 mins combined
  • 6pm evenings and weekends
  • caller ID for both phones (this is the one thing my dad actually wanted)
  • free voicemail on my phone
  • free 500 texts/month, includes 50 pic/vid texts.
This is way more than we need, but we save like $7 and get more. And I get to keep my SIM card, which is a lot more convenient than most people think. I hope that helps you in some way.
Honestly, that is an awesome deal to me. Right now if I signed up I'd get for the $31 package - 100 daytime mins, evenings/weekends after 9pm (I think $7 more for starting at 6), then add the $11 convenience package to get CID, VM, 125 text message and name display, it comes up to $50+ taxes and the infamous SAF of about $7.50. Ridiculous. Congrats, you really got a solid deal.
