I don't think they'll kill off My5 Favs or whatever that service is called. They invested a lot of time, effort, and money for that platform. Getting rid of it would only hurt them financially because it's beneficial from a business perspective and for their customers. My5 Favs encourages people to call within their own respective networks or numbers in order for the carrier to save on transmission costs. A lot of European and I think Asian markets have been doing this for a long time.

Everybody - please stop comparing your retention plans with any of these regular consumer market plans. You're comparing apples to pears.

Yeah, this thread actually made me wonder about my plan so I logged on to check it out. Ended up picking the $20 value pack and deleted all of my other options because it cuts down on my final cost by quite a bit.

I don't think anyone is really comparing retention plans to regular ones. Everything I've mentioned is regular consumer prices.
