I forgot to pay my AT&T Bill for a couple weeks and actually got billed for the next month already. I went to pay and the amount startled me a bit. For 2 months, my bill was like $450. That got me thinking, how much does the average household spend on cell phone a month?

My cell bills have been cut in half in the last 6 months. I used to pay about $40/mo to Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint on top of my $200/mo AT&T bill. I have let those contracts run out and now I just have my main account.

Why so much? I have 4 phones and a laptop connect package on my account. This is with a nice $20 iPhone Data Plan (Even though I don’t use the iPhone all the time). One problem with the iPhone Data plan is that when I am using another phone, I cannot get voicemail. The visual voicemail is bundled in this data plan and cannot be turned off unless you get our of the iPhone Data Plan. Oh well.

So, what do you spend a month for Cell Service and Data Plans?
