I am currently under a contract as well and I am thinking about switching to the prepaid plan.
My bill now runs about $95 a month after taxes. I have an iPhone 5.
It appears I can get unlimited calling, unlimited texting and 2gb of data for $60 a month, right? Or 3gb for $70.
I have never used a prepaid plan before, been with AT&T for many, many years. They are now offering some pretty decent deals for family plans but I am single and just need the one phone. It seems like AT&T is tying to get away from subsidizing phones anyway so ultimately we all will probably be buying them outright soon enough. I just don't know if there are going to be any negatives that will outweigh the cost savings.
When the new iPhones come out this year would I be able to use one of those right away? Will I have to buy an unlocked one or just pay full, unsubsidized price?
