Default Cut your expenses on your phone

Grab your most recent cell phone bills and look at them to see what you are actually paying for, are you paying for internet service that you are not using or paying for 1000 minutes a month,and ony using about 350 ?

Before you make the call to your cell phone company check other Cellular companies to see how their rates compare. If it is still worth your while to stay with your current provider, then call them up and talk to them about the changes that you can make.

Home phone service, again ask yourself a tough question, “Do I really need a land line? Would it be possible to use my cell phone for all calls?”

If you can get by without a land line, call and cancel it. This will probably save you $20 or more a month just by making a phone call.

Default Re: Cut your expenses on your phone

I tried that but when I asked about reducing my minutes they said that I would pay more because with the package that I have I get free cell phone to cell phone calls,and if I reduce my minutes then I will be charged minutes for my cell phone to cell phone calls.

So for me this idea wasn't cheaper,though for some it will be.I use my cell phone a lot and I use the internet and gps for work so I need the package that I already have.

You can try it on your account and see if it might work for you.
