So, is this possible? getting rid of house phone/DSL

Glitterfish · 10-30-2012, 11:57 AM

Right now, we have a home phone w/ DSL, and it's about $85 per month. I have a tracfone that we buy minutes for, and DH has a cell phone that his work pays for.

Is there a plan out there w/ high/unlimited data so I could ditch the home phone and just get a good cell phone w/ a hotspot for using the internet at home? For under $100? Doesn't seem like it so far....

I'm not sure of others but I do know that Verizon is no longer offering unlimited data. But I just googled and it says that T-Mobile has unlimited data plans.
