A Way of Saving On A Mobile Phone Bill

By Aimee Jones

When I was a kid, I didn't think about things like my parent's phone bill. In fact, I didn't much care at all about such things. I just wanted to play and have fun all day long. However, I do remember when the phone bill would be too high and my father would get upset.

At the time I think my parents would spend perhaps $30 or $50 per month on their telephone service. They had to pay added for long distance calling and other extra services like that. It was quite ridiculous how considerably the cellular phone organizations were able to charge for so little service that they provided.

Now, fast forward to the year 2010. We now live in a world where the same companies are charging even more for phone service. It's crazy. Instead of $30 per month total, it's $60 per month per person. How is that fair?

The average American family now spends somewhere between $70-120 per month on cellular phone service. Think about that number for a minute. That's nearly 4 times as very much for cell phone service. That doesn't make sense in any way.

The biggest reason that cell phone service has become so expensive is that folks are now buying cell phones instead of landlines. Sure, landlines aren't really the most convenient form of mobile phone service, but they do work reliably and cheaply. The problem is that telephone organizations need to charge exhorbant rates for services they've supplied for years.

The real culprit is that men and women continually want the next large thing and that basic cell phone service just isn't good adequate anymore for individuals. Nobody actually needs unlimited telephone service, but they want it just mainly because. Nobody desires to text everywhere, but they do it anyway.

If you want the secret to saving money on your phone bill, it's simply this - switch back to a landline or maybe go with a prepaid phone service. Use a crappy, outdated phone and be happy that it works. Also, be happy when you save $60 per month. That's enough each year to buy a new HDTV.
