I'm looking for something to replace PacBell around here since we no longer have to use them anymore..and it includes a local plan, 200 free minutes of long distance and 5 cents a minute after that..and includes caller ID, call waiting, and some other stuff for $30 a month. My parents pay the phone bill every month, so I don't know exactly what we pay..but that seems like a pretty good deal I think.

$88 including $50 for DSL. Our basic phone before taxes is a terrible $34/month for basic with c.ID. I'd switch but we lose the DSL.

$34.19 with tax. Sprint PCS with more minutes than I'll ever use. Gotta love unlimited night and weekend minutes.

about $22 after taxes. $12 is the base fee, plus the 5 or so calls we make a month. :| Cell phones are great (and so are those discounts for me).

$22 and change for basic sercvice and taxes. The lines itself is $13.18 the rest is taxes / fees / surcharges. When I need to make a long distance call I use a pre-paid calling card.

$17 / mo.

Too high, but my roomate says we have to have a phone. I told him that there is a pay phone across the street.

Oh well.
