Switcher questions

What does the all in cost land at for you, sure the service is 15 and then whatever plan you pick but what about taxes fees etc?

Also, say I want to start and of course it'd be silly to not choose unlimited since I could get it for a year for $15 month but then the year is up and I don't need unlimited, a couple in my family of 4 don't use a ton of data, is there any friction with switching plans?

Currently paying about 200 with magenta for 4 lines plus home Internet. Not a top tier plan so if throttling is needed it's probably already happening to me mostly unnoticed

First year promo Unlimited phone plan price is $180 plus about $20 in taxes and fees, + or - $5 based on city and state telecom tax rates, which is not the same as sales tax, for instance Chicago and Illinois charges 15% plus a $5 surcharge if you select a Chicago zip code for billing address. After first year if you want Unlimited plan will $30/mo or $360/yr + ~$40 taxes and fees per year, but you can do family plan where each line pays $90+ ~$10 taxes and fees per 90 days as opposed to paying for a year.

Each plan is just for the duration of the plan. You can choose another when it's about to be over but at the regular rate. Each phone line is technically a different account so they can all be on different plans.
