My plan is $60 and I make that in a full day of work

I was able to do that for my plan 1.5years ago~, but it might be harder to get it credited now because of how strict they are now.

This is true. People making even $13 an hour shouldn't have cellphone bills that cost $50+. It is really living beyond your means. $60 buys me a week and a half of groceries with left overs.
People these days complain they have no money, it's because they spend it on frivolous things like (expensive) data plans.

Highschool kids/college kids would still be hardpressed to be making 13 an hour for your run of the mill average job.

$7 - CID
$8 - Fees & Taxes

$80 - Total
New Plan
$50 - Unlimited Voice / Text North America

$8 - Fees & Taxes -$5 - Credit
------------------------
~$85 - Total
I tried to get them to credit CID. They wouldn't budge. I resigned for 3 years as I got a 4S as well. | wow.. i can open up 3 Mobi lines and still have money left over... |

I travel for work, that includes random trips outside major metropolises. I'm paid to be available anytime, anywhere.
My choices are Rogers or Bellus, and I may eventually have to switch to Bellus due to the lack of Rogers reception in some of the areas I work.

Over a 36month contract that's over a couple hundred dollars.
I automate and forget about all my bills until close to renewal so i try to do the work upfront and just have peace of mind that I did all I could for a good deal.
