I have been debating lately on whether or not I should switch phone carriers even though I have been with the one I am with for over decade. The reason is that there doesn\u2019t seem to be much incentive overall l to stay other than I have a grandfathered plan that currently does the job at a fairly low price. I only pay about $47 a month all-in where most people probably pay almost $80 or so. But as I look to upgrade to a new phone with no deals to be found would you just switch to the carrier that gives you the best deal for the next two years as an example?<\/p>\n
Essentially, after the deal you will technically be paying more but by that time I guess you need to switch again and try to find a better deal. I currently do that with things like the Internet service as that seems to be the way to go where I have constantly gotten faster service for less by doing so. Again it makes me seriously wonder if I should just do that with my phone plan too and give up the grandfathered plan.<\/p>\n
I noticed that a lot of carriers are actively trying to promote offers designed specifically to lure customers from specific companies too. Would you prefer the less predictable but potentially higher savings route?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
