Why is it that there is no 'middle of the road' between the 700 and 1400 minute plans? It sucks, I need maybe 1000 minutes per month (I have 5 lines on my account), but not 1400. I wouldn't care if it was a $10 savings, anything would be better than paying for minutes I just don't use... At one point I had almost 4000 rollover minutes, which proves we don't use anywhere near 1400 minutes per month. I've since backed us down to the 700 minute plan, and lost just over 3000 rollover minutes (when switching plans, you can only take as any rollover minutes with you as the plan you are switching to). So now we are close to empty on the rollover minutes, so we have to keep playing the stupid change your rate plan game so that I can save a couple of bucks here (I'm trying to pay off my debt, every penny counts).

Remember way back when you could have a contract for only $20 per month??

That is how their text message plans are too. Either 200, 1500, or unlimited. I need more than 200, but no where near 1500, so Im pretty just wasting money to get the 1500...

Do you guy have FAN accounts? I have one through my school which gives me a 15% discount on voice/data/text. Also if you have a FAN account, you can call business care and ask them to add feature codes onto your plan (YMMV). I added a 1500 txt (no mms) plan for 8.99 and bonus 200 minutes. My monthly bill is only $74 including tax and everything or 650 anytime min and 1500 texts.

same here. We just switched over to a 700 plan from the 1400, they just kept piling up with no one using them.

I think that I'm eligible for the 'FAN' discount for 10% (For being in a union). I'm not sure though, and will find out tomorrow. I'll report back!
